Re: Keep Fort Ord Wild v. County of Monterey, FORA (case no. M114961)

Chair Rubio and members of the FORA Board of Directors:

On January 11, 2017, the Superior Court released its Intended Decisionresolving the CEQA case in favor of Keep Fort Ord Wild. We understand that you havescheduled a closed session for this Thursday to discuss the decision.

As the prevailing party and "private attorney general," Keep Fort Ord Wild isentitled to seek recovery of its attorney fees. We intend to make an attorney fee motionfor our fees to date. Once the Court's fee award is entered, the fee award startsaccruing interest at the statutory rate until paid.

What Happens After the Fee Award.

If FORA appeals, the appeal would be filed with the appellate court in San Jose.FORA would pay for the services of its own counsel in compiling the record includingthe transcript of the more than six hours of argument in the trial court, researching anddrafting an opening brief, responding to KFOW's brief in a reply brief, and any otherbriefing requested by the Court of Appeal, along with various other tasks. Most likely,FORA also would have to pay KFOW's attorney fees on appeal, with interest at thestatutory rate on the entire amount of KFOW's work.

Appeals typically take about 650 to 900 days to complete. During that time,FORA will be paying FORA's counsel. FORA has no right to reimbursement fromKFOW. At best, FORA will pay for its legal work for the next two years. At worst,FORA will pay its lawyers, KFOW's lawyers, interest on the fee award to KFOW, andreimbursement of KFOW's costs. An appeal by either or both FORA and the Countywould risk hundreds of thousands of taxpayer dollars and member jurisdiction dollars.

Who Usually Wins an Appeal.

The best available predictor of the risk on appeal comes from an analysis ofother appeals decided by the same Court of Appeal. That data shows that the mostlikely result is an appellate decision that affirms the trial court decision. Only 16% to18% of appeals result in reversals (whole or partial) of the trial court decision. 80% of

Ralph Rubio, Chair,Fort Ord Reuse Authority Board of DirectorsJanuary 25, 2017Page 2

appeals result in affirmation of the trial court decision. Another 4% are dismissed. Weattach to this letter the 2016 summary of appellate courts for your consideration.

FORA is unlikely to prevail on appeal. The Superior Court's decision is based onsolid legal grounds and accurate and detailed analysis. It is stronger than most trialcourt opinions, and it resolves key facts that point directly to the decision made by theSuperior Court. There is little chance that an appeal in this case will succeed.

In your review of this matter, we strongly urge you to consider the quality anddepth of the Superior Court's decision. It is well reasoned and thorough, and isconsistent with binding Supreme Court authority. We remind you of these facts, thesecosts, and these risks.

Thank you for your time and consideration of this matter.

Very truly yours,

January 12, 2017

Subjects of pre Fort Ord, Fort Ord, and the Fort Ord Base Realignment and Closure, are of elements of present, as of today, January 11, 2017, injury to a sample space representation of person, place, or thing.

Subjects are participant to double(s ), mock, staged, affect, uninvited, Church and State, private and public, non-juris elements of preemptive generational besillier, bio-terrorism, extortion, kidnapping, target molecule abuse, et alii, by which subjects are of other injuries.

GENERAL BACKGROUND.

Preemptive unaccompted rehearsals of non-juris, public piracy, and invasions of privacy, by which to effect affect effect (sic) is first-hand observed to be comprised of National Institute of Health, The National Security Agency, Federal Emergency Management Agency and pre Constitution based elements of libel, slander, unethical and immature unremedied tortures subjects are of recurrently amongst sample spaces of person, place, or thing ... of which some sample spaces are categorized as crises, though genuinely recurrent isolations without remedy for the subjects' injuries.

My father and I cite, for each other, in invitum, ourselves as qualified professional human rights observers with foreign and domestic, public and private, experience extended beyond twenty Early Regular Active Duty Service sidereal years.

My father is of a classified and protected lineage. He is to be neither classified nor indexed in the manner, as subjects have - literally using errors ad absurdum and error of availability, invasion of privacy and infrastructure sabotage, by which prevalent and current infrastructure is foreign or domestic game, gift, society, et alii, based by which to deny themselves proper function.

SPECIFIC BACKGROUND

Subject sample space person, place, or thing of ambassador appointments, electoral, Exercise, et alii, of Crises, predatory stalked ... raided ... invaded ... my nursery and library ... organized and executed unauthorized, FCC based, popularization consensus ratings based, rude, illicit, irritant based, NBC based, besillier based, unethical, indexing group predatory sieges ... of which some include rape, et alii, of family member(s). These subjects organized through a quasi and pseudo uniformed services, the socio-economies of Church and State in Africa, Atlantic Ocean, California, Canada, Cuba, Florida, Germany, Iceland, Korea, New York, Oklahoma, Pacific Ocean, Tennessee, Wyoming, the early warning system, et alii, and through recurrent epigenetic sabotage. Of this sample space are subjects preemptive of presidential Church and State social activities, which intersect gubernatorial and broadcast events of Camp, non-juris in-law, and


invention. Subjects cultivated an advantage of the aforementioned through Society, barratry and predatory church basement, Pentagon, intersecting encyclopedia cited topics, and intersecting information systems to deployed non hygienic satellite and GPS based "gay" (sic, as in "why don't you ... there is a man in the ... who ... (makes lots of money) ... "over there" ... signal corps based ... inappropriate zoological based physician behaviors of embassy based unaccompted events used to cause epigenetic NIH directed epidermal library, park, and nursery preemptive injuries. France, and other University systems, aided and abetted such through aerospace, et alii. Male subjects, advancing unauthorized, uninvited contact, or previous consensus feign, include alter, camp, chancellor, gym clothes, doorbell, film, insurance, maple, sitter, snipe, et alii. Primarily, these subjects predatory preemptive stalked with the assistance of teachers, et alii, who assisted with the ruin of my father's library and the taking of books, classified papers, et cetera, thereof. At least one subject of what are adult teacher sponsored riots and invasions of privacy, which subjects cultivated through the electoral, dispersions, and stockpiles, used such process to preemptively injure the Conference and Treaty aerospace and defense industry of populations about which books are published.

SPECIFIC RECURRENT BACK.GROUND

Subjects are preemptive of using the Lake park and Library process of a US Indonesia and China and Russia, North Pole expedition and theater based subject, self-citing, amongst the populace of subjects self-citing themselves to be relatives, educators, in-laws, et alii, "I am Satan"; the barratry, besillier, case law, destruction, and ruin to DD214 records effect is generational.

INJUNCTION

I am to direct regional, international, et alii, correction to the records of my father and I. Subjects are to remedy.

JUSTIFICATION

Language saboteurs, et alii, violated in invitum with (sic) curia regis via the national and international, library and monument process of which subjects are cave (cave!) (sic) saboteurs. Males predatorily and preemptively stalked the recreation items of a female sibling as a basis for physical sabotage, doing so similarly with me and my father, et alii, of which subjects have been recurrent through piracy, et alii.

A finance and cache subject isolated the female victim in closets, by which to signal neighboring male and female stalkers, of which some were "authority" ... (cave!) "why do you fear authority?" male use of the word during intentional physiological epigenetic abuses of hygienic functions and abusive female coach and teacher isolations of victim in diseased regions; in these regions, Secretary of State subjects were causal of unremedied throughput resultant of torture chambers upon which subjects are, as of today, predatory.

As of today, subjects making comments related to elements of injury and proximity, are stalking me based upon gaming and pseudo, non-juris, in-law itemizations and partitioning elements of accusation, libel, slander, et cetera, which are reflections of the behaviors of the populace responsible for injuries cited in scholarly publications and journals, of which some entries are, adulterated and the effect of the international agency populace causing the injuries. Male subjects


of behaviors different than mine, and their offspring and parental functions predominate in this FBI, Senate, agent, NIST, Prague, Hague, et alii, 'Bounty', 'Honey', sponsored terrorism against me and consanguinity.

Re: Brown Act Violations

Dear Chair O'Connell and Members of the Fort Ord Reuse Authority Board of Directors:

FORA seems to have a problem complying with the Brown Act. We and KeepFort Ord Wild need clearer agendas, so we know what is being discussed by FORAcommittees. The Brown Act sets minimum standards which agencies can exceed in thepublic interest. FORA is not meeting the minimum standards. Here are examples ofrecent problems:

FORA often fails to state for closed session items the specific authorizingparagraph of Government Code section 54956.9, subdivision (d), thatauthorizes the closed session. That is required information. FORA oftenfails to stating with specificity the information required to be statedpursuant to subdivisions (e)(2) and (e)(3) of the section. For example, thedraft agenda for the January 2017 FORA Board meeting lists closedsession item 2.c as "Potential Litigation" with no further information.

The FORA Executive Committee meeting agenda for January 4, 2017describes item 4.a as a "Closed Session" without any detail or citation tosection 54956.9 or compliance with several material terms of that section.

Absent special circumstances, the Brown Act requires FORA to use ashort description of less than 20 words to provide essential informationabout the item to members of the public. (Gov. Code, sec. 54954.2.)FORA, like all legislative bodies, is free to provide a more detaileddescription and should do so. However, the January 4 AdministrativeCommittee agenda contains this item:

7. BUSINESS ITEMS

a. Capital Improvement ProgramI. Development Forecasts Requestii. Caretaker Costs Reimbursement Policy

That description is not adequate. No proposed action is described, ifFORA intends to take any action. The agenda report is dated November2016; that report was already considered by the Committee at its

ChairO'Connell and Members of the Fort Ord Reuse Authority Board of DirectorsJanuary 4, 2017Page 2

November 2016 meeting. There is no report for January 4, 2017. Theoutdated report does not mention "Caretaker Costs Reimbursementpolicy."

FORA repeatedly states on agendas a recurring item described solely as"items from members." It is not clear to anyone what is meant by thatvague description and whether any items will be discussed or action willbe taken, if FORA intends to take any action.

FORA's meeting minutes also have problems. For example, the minutes for theitem at the December 2016 Board meeting, "Consistency Determination: Del Rey OaksMonument RV Resort 2nd Vote" state "There were no comments from the Board or thepublic." That is not accurate. Our office submitted a comment letter to the FORABoard prior to the meeting. As written, the minutes are potentially misleading. If theintent is to reflect oral comments only, the minutes should so state.

KFOW asks FORA to take immediate action to correct the numerous violations.If you want to meet, KFOW is willing to meet with you. We ask that you include yourattorney in addressing these notification standards. Thank you.

Very truly yours,

STAMP | ERICKSON
