A STATEMENT OE CASE _
Appellant filed a complaint under 28 U.S.C. § 1350 and named
three (3) defendants: arresting police officer A. Scott Davis,
Harringtong Police Dept., and M. Jane Brady, former Att. General. `
Appellant argues that these Delaware officials failed to advise him
-of his right under Article 36 (1)(b) of the Vienna Convention during
a period of eleven (11) months that appellant was held in jail,
wrongly accused of a crime in 1995. This wrongful act by these offi—i
cials caused appellant Mora much stress and pain. The police officer,
Police Dept., and Attorney General are to be responsible for their
neglegence in this case. -
` At the time of the arrest, appellant Mora did not speak the English
lenguage. Even after noting Mora°s disability of understanding English,
these officials failed to inform Mora of his Vienna Convention rights.
On appeal, appellant will show that: (1) jurisdiction is proper
A under 28 U.S.C. § 1350, 133], and 42 U.S.C. § 1983; also, appellant
has the right to sue goverment officials under these statutes. (2)
appellant has an individual right under Article 36 (1)(b) of the
Vienna Convention; (3) inmunity does not apply in this case, even if
M. Jane Brady has inmunity, the other defendants do not; (4) appellant
complaint is timely filed, as the court below noted. And if would
had been filed under 42 U.S.C. § 1983, equitable tolling apply in this
case sice appellant English was/is limited and could not find no one _
3 in the prison library to translate legal materials for him from English
to Spanish. `
