Date Filed Document Text
September 30, 2018 Opinion or Order Filing 94 MEMORANDUM Opinion and Order signed by the Honorable Edmond E. Chang on 9/30/2018: For the reasons discussed in the Opinion, the City's motion 33 to dismiss is denied, although certain Monell theories are not adequately stated. The City's motion to dismiss the Cross-Complaint is denied 73 . Discovery on Monell liability will be limited to the following: (1) the code of silence that encourages officers to remain quiet about officer misconduct and to fabricate evidence and initiate ch arges against civilians to cover up the misconduct, as well as the City's knowledge of and failure to address the code of silence; and (2) the failure to discipline officers who engage in misconduct (this likely should be a subject of conferral to confine discovery to what is reasonably necessary in this case). Discovery cannot proceed on the other versions of Monell liability. On or before 10/19/2018, the parties shall file a status report proposing a discovery schedule for the Monell claim. The status hearing of 10/26/2018 remains in place. Emailed notice(eec)
