A Bridgeview man once accused of funneling money to a Palestinian militant group has dodged a $156 million judgment in a potential landmark case after a federal appeals court dropped him from the case.

Attorneys for Mohammed Salah, who was acquitted of racketeering charges last week, have vowed to keep working to clear the name of the Bridgeview man deemed a terrorist by the federal government and to help his family lead a normal life.
