RUSTON LOSES
Steve Fabre v. Town of Ruston June 24, 2011 1:30pm room 822 Judge Edmund Murphy: Motion to Dismiss
The former Mayor Council skate today. Dismissed from case.
Ruston not so lucky trial will go on for negligence, tortious interference, post Cuthbertson and 1253. Damages will be assessed at trial on NINE MILLION DOLLAR CLAIM.
They just could not leave well enough alone and poked the sleeping dog thinking it was a dead horse.
The judge held that Ruston Mayor/Council had legislative immunity dismissing all claims against individual defendants.
Res judicata or res iudicata (RJ), also known as claim preclusion, is the Latin term for "a matter [already] judged",
Res judicata claim by defendant Town of Ruston dismissed. Cuthbertson (Judge) dismissed claim. Ruston took no action to enforce new claims or actions.
Plaintiff res judicata upheld.
Grant each partially. No action on after Cuthbertson not repealed until December 10. Only Ruston argument.
Town shifted to Social Card games after declatory decision.
Summation of discretionary acts followed.
Plaintiff conversion, estoppel, abusive process dismissed.
Negligence, tortious interference will continue to trial.
My take is that the Town of Ruston should of quit when they were ahead. But the present council pressed on with Social card games then changing to house banked social card games in their haste to close the Point Defiance Cafe and Casino and its house banked card games including an illegal referendum.
The Casino and Steve Fabre may be made whole again but the damage to 35-40 employees and their lives cannot be repaired.
When you go "all in" with your credit card bad days are ahead. How bad will be decided on 06/04/2012 DEPT 09 - JUDGE MURPHY (Rm. 822 ) Confirmed 9:00 Trial (5 days).
Stay tuned for happenings along the way. CLERK'S MINUTE ENTRY will be posted when available.
One less law firm to pay but still legal bills will be substantial. A claim settlement is a definite possibility.
AWC, Association of Washington Cities, must be stone deaf not to pay attention to these thundering claims and lawsuits they have to pony up for.
Town of Ruston officials:
Mayor, Bruce Hopkins
Council, Bradley Huson, Jim Hedrick, Deborah Kristovich, Lyle Hardin, Jane Hunt

MOTION FOR ORDER OF DEFAULT
Fabre et al. v. Town of RustonRuston has changed all the lawyers. The main guy is now from Spokane. May be too late to answer as time limit was not met.
Pierce County Superior Court No. 10-2-15875-3
Question regarding who got all the money in this fiasco dating back to 2004 I have a Public records request in for 2008 thru 2010.
Also am requesting a copy of 2008 complaint from Steve Fabre for $9 million dollars.
If the Casino gets the old school and the Town Hall in a settlement we may see an expanded trade stimulant business with a view no less. Plenty of new customers when Commencement is filled out.
Things are happening fast on this issue and it appears Town may be on the ropes unless they find a very sympathetic judge and survive appeal, if so.
following is:
MOTION FOR ORDER OF DEFAULT 1-3
NOTICE OF SUBSTITUTION OF COUNSEL (RUSTON) 1-2
MOTION FOR ORDER OF DEFAULT
