___________________________________________________________________________ DEFENDANTS' PROPOSED FINAL PRE-TRIAL ORDER ___________________________________________________________________________ 1. DATE AND APPEARANCES The Final Pretrial Conference was held on June 1, 2006. Plaintiff, Lillian Barton, 97 Soda Creek Road, Evergreen, CO, acting pro se, appeared on her own behalf. Brett A. McDaniel of Senter Goldfarb & Rice, L.L.C., 1700 Broadway, Suite 1700, Denver, Colorado 80290, appeared on behalf of all named Defendants, including, but not limited to, Richard Blea, Nick Sagan, Josh Vasconcellos (hereinafter "Denver Defendants"). 2. JURISDICTION A. and 1367. B. This is an action for damages brought pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 wherein Jurisdiction in this Court is invoked under the provisions of 28 U.S.C. §§ 1331

Plaintiff alleges that Defendants, by their misconduct, violated Plaintiff' constitutional s rights. C. The jurisdiction of this Court is not disputed. 3. CLAIMS AND DEFENSES A. PLAINTIFF: Plaintiff Lillian Barton makes the following claims: 1. False and Illegal Arrests: Lillian Barton was unlawfully arrested and

interrogated without probable cause; and without being given or informed of her Miranda Right during her first arrest. After Lillian Barton was released from the first arrest, she was stopped, unreasonably detained and rearrested. During the first illegal arrest Plaintiff Lillian Barton was coercively interrogated and arrested without probable cause, and without being

informed of her Miranda rights.

Defendant officers, Blea, Sagen, and Vasconcellos

substantially deprived Plaintiff Barton of her right to be free from unreasonable search and seizure pursuant to the Fourth Amendment of the United States; and, in failing to Mirandize Plaintiff Barton prior to two coercive interrogations during the first arrest violated the "constitutional" requirements of the Miranda Doctrine under federal and state law. The officers arresting Lillian Barton without probable cause then failing to inform her of her Miranda Rights, an absolute prerequisite to an arrest, was a violation of her civil rights under the Fourth, Fifth, Sixth and Fourteenth Amendment of the United States. Miranda became a "Constitutional" decision and requirement on Monday, June 26, 2000, and was an established requirement two years prior to the interrogation and arrest of Lillian Barton on February 24, 2002. The Defendant officers stopped and detained and arrested Lillian Barton for a second time, searched and seized her purse and wallet for no probable cause, because she did not give them the same identification that she had given them during the first arrest (driver' s license). The second arrest was clearly made without probable cause and deprived Lillian Barton to be free from unreasonable search and seizure under the Fourth Amendment. 2. Malicious Prosecution: Criminal charges were instituted against Lillian

Barton by the defendants for two separate offenses at the time of her arraignment for no probable cause, i.e., a charge of Interference ­ Violation 38-31, and a charge as co-defendant to an alleged Unlawful Dumping ­ violation of Municipal Ordinance 48-41. The co-

defendant charge to an alleged Unlawful Dumping was never revealed to Plaintiff during or prior to arraignment by the prosecution. The concealed charge as a co-defendant was stated on the reverse side of alleged perpetrator, Lawrence D. Gomba, Summons and Complaint

No. GD 419303. This misuse of process by the Prosecutor Ramsey and Wortham constitutes two separate torts under constitutional and common law, i.e., malicious prosecution and abuse of process. The false charges maliciously initiated against Lillian Barton, who has no criminal record, was not to bring her to justice but for the sole purpose to protect the Police and the City and County of Denver from a pending lawsuit for their unlawful, unreasonable search and seizure of Lillian Barton for no probable cause. The charge against Lillian Barton for Interference was dismissed against the Plaintiff by County Court Judge Mary Celeste "declaring the arrest illegal because under the totality of the circumstances it was not based on probable cause." In addition, the Court stated: "This Court finds that it is unreasonable to believe that the Defendant committed a crime." The Court also dismissed the case on the grounds that "there is uncontroverted testimony that her Miranda Rights were not given." The Defendant Officers, as well as the Defendant City Attorney Prosecutors, initiated a malicious prosecution without probable cause on both charges. The concealment of the second charge was a substantial violation of Lillian

Barton' right to know the charges to be made against under the Sixth and Fourteenth s Amendments. The initiation of a prosecution without informing an individual of the nature of the charges to be made against them is a substantial violation of Sixth and Fourteenth Amendments. As a result of Defendant Officers' failure to inform Lillian Barton prior to two separate coercive interrogations and first custodial arrest to inform her of the right to remain silent and right to counsel and failure to Mirandize, at the point where she was suspected of

criminal activity, was a violation of her Fourth, Fifth, Sixth and Fourteenth Amendment Rights. The failure of Defendant Officers to inform Lillian Barton of her right to counsel prior to two intensive, coercive interrogations in which they attempted to obtain an admission from her through threats, violence and intimidation that she was involved in the criminal activity of covering up an alleged Illegal dumping was a violation of her Fifth Amendment Rights as well as a common law tort. 3. Intentional Infliction of Emotional Distress: The conduct of Blea, Sagan, and

Vasconcellos, in their attempt to coerce Plaintiff Barton to admit to complicity in a hazardous waste spill which never existed, constituted extreme outrageous conduct. The acts were done wanton and recklessly and the latter assault and battery was intended to terrorize and to cause severe emotional distress to deter Plaintiff Barton from suing the City and County of Denver. Plaintiff suffered severed emotional anguish and emotional stress as a result of the Defendant' almost year-long malicious prosecution to convict her of a crime for purposes s other than to bring her to justice, but for the sole purpose of protecting themselves and the City and County of Denver, et al., from a possible pending lawsuit. 4. Damages: Plaintiff incurred damages as a result of the malicious criminal

charges initiated against her as a result of attorney' fees, research, travel, computer time and s other related costs in the amount of $18,266.00, see (Exhibit N ­ Itemized statement of costs incurred as result of malicious prosecution). For actual damages incurred in her Malicious Prosecution Case No. 03-F-2633(PAC), Lillian Barton has incurred actual damages attorney fees, research, travel, computer expense,

court costs, and hospital emergency care in the amount of $15,585 as itemized in: Exhibit O ­ Actual damages resulting from malicious prosecution. Plaintiff is entitled to both exemplary and punitive damages under State and Federal Law since Defendants actions were both willful and wanton and for evil intent. Punitive damages are based on the emotional distress and humiliation and injury to reputation resulting from the malicious prosecution and illegal arrest of Plaintiff for no probable cause. In addition, Plaintiff makes claim for actual damages for loss of time, loss of business, expense of travel to Denver, Colorado from Evergreen, Colorado and other damages incurred as a result of extensive research and computer expenses to answer an excessive amount of Motions and Court Orders as a result of Defendant' protracted litigation in this case s concerning Defendants abusive discovery procedures. 1 B. DENVER DEFENDANTS: On February 24, 2002, Plaintiff was contacted

via telephone by her ex-husband, Lawrence Gomba, who requested her assistance pertaining to a flat tire on his trailer mounted hydroseeder. Plaintiff left her home in Evergreen, Colorado and traveled to the Phillips 66 Gas Station located at 450 North Federal Boulevard to assist Mr. Gomba. While Plaintiff was en route, Mr. Gomba attempted to relieve some of the weight from the hydroseeder so that he could free the truck from the trailer by releasing some of the contents onto the parking lot. Due to the pressure placed on the release valve from the flowing substance, Mr. Gomba was unable to close the valve and stop the flow of liquid from the hydroseeder which resulted in the spilling of nearly 1,000 gallons of

Denver Defendants have made reasonable efforts to accurately transcribe those claims and damages asserted by Plaintiff. However, to the extent Plaintiff has asserted claims never before alleged, i.e., assault and battery and conspiracy, Denver Defendants have omitted such claim notations. Additionally, Denver Defendants note without addressing the merits of Plaintiff' damages, the introduction of any evidence itemizing such fees is s inappropriate as such documents have never been disclosed by Plaintiff.

hydroseeding liquid onto the parking lot. Mr. Gomba was eventually able to free his truck and leave the scene prior to Plaintiff' arrival. s Gas Station Attendant Tahnee Castaneda contacted the police dispatch center and reported the illegal dumping which was occurring in the rear parking lot of the Phillips 66 Gas Station. Denver Police Officers Blea, Sagan and Vasconcellos were dispatched to the scene on an illegal dumping call. Upon their arrival, the officers observed an unknown greenish substance spilling onto the ground from the hydroseeder and spreading across the rear of the parking lot and onto the adjacent public street. The spill ran approximately one block east on Short Place into a residential area where there were children playing. Officer Blea questioned Plaintiff regarding the spill, wherein she stated that it was her husband' s business and that she was not responsible as she was only there to pick him up. After refusing to cooperate with the officers'investigation and provide them with any identification, Plaintiff attempted to leave the premises in her vehicle. In doing so, she repeatedly slammed her driver-side door into Officer Blea and began screaming. Based upon these actions and her refusal to cooperate with the officers, she was removed from her vehicle, handcuffed and placed into a patrol car. In the meantime, due to the unknown nature of the green substance spilling onto the ground, the Denver Fire Department was called to evaluate the situation for a potential hazardous spill. Once Plaintiff stopped yelling, she was removed from the patrol car, her handcuffs were removed and she was issued a General Session Summons and Complaint for a violation of Municipal Ordinance §38-31 for Interfering with Police Authority. Plaintiff then left the scene of the spill without further incident. Shortly thereafter, Lawrence Gomba returned to scene and provided the Fire Department with information relating to the contents of the spill.

Mr. Gomba was issued a citation for Unlawful Dumping in violation of Municipal Ordinance §48-44. Subsequently, on December 26, 2003, Plaintiff filed the present lawsuit which was eventually consolidated into Plaintiff' Consolidated Complaint and Jury Demand s (hereinafter "Plaintiff' Complaint") filed on March 12, 2004. s The Denver Defendants deny the substantive allegations of Plaintiff' Complaint and s further deny that they violated Plaintiff' civil rights under the Fourth and Fourteenth s Amendments to the United States Constitution. Defendants further deny that Plaintiff was maliciously prosecuted. Additionally, the Denver Defendants deny that they committed any torts, including intentional infliction of emotional distress.2 The Denver Defendants

affirmatively assert that at all times they acted in good faith and without the intent to injure or deprive Plaintiff of her civil rights. As for defenses, the Denver Defendants are entitled to qualified immunity. Plaintiff's Complaint fails to state a claim for which relief may be granted as to some of the claims against the Denver Defendants. Plaintiff' claims are barred in whole or in part by the s doctrine of issue preclusion ("collateral estoppel"). The Denver Defendants' actions at all times were objectionably reasonable under the circumstances and not in violation of any clearly established law on the date of the subject incident. Further, the Denver Defendants were lawfully exercising the powers conferred upon them pursuant to C.R.S. §§ 16-3-101, 16-3-102, 16-3-103, and 18-1-707, and were further lawfully exercising their public duties as law enforcement officers in accordance with the provisions of C.R.S. § 18-1-701. The Denver Defendants are not liable for exemplary or punitive damages pursuant to Colorado

Denver Defendants reserve the rights to amend their statement of facts and defenses in the event Plaintiff' s Objections to Recommendation of United States Magistrate Judge Pursuant to Fed.R.Civ.P. 72(b) are sustained in whole or in part.

and/or Federal law. Finally, the Denver Defendants'activities were at all times supported by probable cause. Further, Plaintiff' claims are subject to the applicable provisions of the Colorado s "Governmental Immunity Act" ("CGIA"), § 24-10-101, et seq. (2005). Plaintiff has further failed to reasonably mitigate her alleged damages and her claims are barred and/or diminished by her own comparative negligence/fault and/or assumption of the risk. Plaintiff' damages, if any, are not of the nature and extent as alleged in the Complaint. s Plaintiff' damages, if any, may have been caused in whole or in part by third parties over s which the Denver Defendants have no control or right of control. Plaintiff' claims are such s that the Denver Defendants are entitled to their costs and attorneys' fees.3 4. STIPULATIONS Agreed Stipulations: 1. Plaintiff Lillian Barton is a resident of Evergreen, Colorado.4

Denver Defendants'Proposed Stipulations: 1. On February 24, 2002, Plaintiff was handcuffed and placed in a patrol car.
