ERICKSON Former Research Director of the LCB In the beginning, the region now occupied by the State of Nevada was held by Data Historical the Goshute, Mojave, Paiute, Shoshone and Washoe Indians and claimed by the Spanish Empire until the early 1800s. Th e northern extent of the Spanish claim was defi ned as the 42nd parallel in the Adams-Onis Treaty of 1819 between the United States and Spain. Th is north latitude line serves currently as Nevada’s northern boundary with Oregon and Idaho. Spanish explorations into this region have never been documented clearly enough to establish any European party constituting the earliest expedition into Nevada. If in fact there was some penetration, it must have been by the Spanish in the southernmost portion of our state, possibly as early as 1776. In 1821 Mexico won its war of independence from Spain and gained control over all the former Spanish territory in the area of what is now our “South-West.” Spain had done nothing to occupy or control what is now Nevada, a vast region virtually “terra incognita,” having no permanent non-Indian population and considered barren, arid and inhospitable. Quite understandably, the Spanish concentrated on settlements and nominal control in the more accessible and better-known coastal regions of the Californias and New Mexico.

    Case 5:09-cv-00588-XR Document 4 Filed 08/10/09 Page 1 of 18 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS SAN ANTONIO DIVISION HOLLI LUNDAHL § a/k/a Holli Telford, § § Plaintiff, § v. § CIVIL ACTION NO. § ALBERT HAWKINS, § SA-09-CV-0588 XR Commissioner for the Dept. of Health and § Human Services for the State of Texas; § ANDREW ARNOTT, § LENORE LOPEZ, § AMANDA MATRAVERS, and § DOES EMPLOYEES of the Utah Dept. § of Health and Human Services; § ACCOUNTING OFFICIAL FOR BOP § in Austin, Texas; § USA; and § SONJA SORENSON, § § Defendants. § REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION TO: Honorable Xavier Rodriguez United States District Judge This report and recommendation recommends dismissal of this case and sanctions. Previously, the district judge referred to me plaintiff Holli Lundahl’s motion to proceed in forma pauperis (IFP).1 The motion includes a request for appointment of an attorney. In considering the motion, I observed that this case should be dismissed under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e) and that Lundahl abuses the judicial system. Section 1915(e) provides for sua sponte dismissal of an IFP proceeding if the court finds 1Docket entry # 1. Case 5:09-cv-00588-XR Document 4 Filed 08/10/09 Page 2 of 18 that the complaint “is frivolous or malicious” or “fails to state a claim upon which relief may be granted.”2 This provision permits the court to dismiss those claims whose factual contentions are clearly baseless.3 Dismissal of a claim as frivolous is appropriate where the claim lacks an arguable basis either in law or in fact.4 Similarly, it has been held that the “district court may dismiss an action on its own motion under Rule 12(b)(6) [of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure] ‘as long as the procedure employed is fair.’”5 Analyzing the merits of a plaintiff’s claim in a report and recommendation and giving the plaintiff an opportunity to object to the recommendation is a fair process for dismissing a case.

  • 1 March 27, 2020 President Donald J. Trump the White House 1600
    March 27, 2020 President Donald J. Trump The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W. Washington, D.C. 20500 Dear President Trump: As you recently declared, the spread of COVID-19 is a national emergency that threatens thousands of lives across our country. According to estimates, the death toll from this virus could range anywhere from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands or even more than one million in the United States. We, as former United States Attorneys, federal judges, Assistant United States Attorneys, and DOJ lawyers and leaders, understand the obligation to protect the safety and wellbeing of everyone in our community. This obligation extends to those in federal detention and correctional centers, where almost 20 percent are over the age of 50 and many have underlying health conditions.1 This obligation also extends to staff and correctional officers, their families, and the communities where these facilities are located. We write to express our concern that, unless you take immediate action, it will be just a matter of time before there is a COVID-19 outbreak of massive proportions in a federal detention or correctional facility. We believe that the current crisis creates a need to speak out and urge current leaders to implement a plan to dramatically reduce the number of incarcerated individuals and address the threat of disastrous outbreaks. If and when a COVID-19 outbreak occurs in a Bureau of Prisons facility, the correctional officers and staff will all be at great risk of infection as well. With all of these

Lopez American Civil Liberties Union Foundation, Inc. 125 Broad Street New York, New York 10004 IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF UTAH, CENTRAL DIVISION COMPLAINT FOR DECLARATORY UTAH GOSPEL MISSION, FIRST AND INJUNCTIVE RELIEF UNITARIAN CHURCH OF SALT LAKE CITY, SHUNDAHAI NETWORK, UTAH NATIONAL Case No. _______ ORGANIZATION FOR WOMEN, CRAIG S. AXFORD, and LEE J. SIEGEL, Judge _____________ Plaintiffs, Vs. SALT LAKE CITY CORPORATION, a Municipal corporation; and ROSS C. “ROCKY” ANDERSON, Mayor of Salt Lake City, in his official capacity, Defendants INTRODUCTION 1. This action arises from the extraordinary efforts Salt Lake City has undertaken to avoid the holding in First Unitarian Church of Salt Lake City v. Salt Lake City Corporation, 308 F.3d 1114 (2002) (Main Street I), and to protect and advance the interests of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (LDS Church) that are affected by that decision. The dispute involves a downtown pedestrian plaza recently built over a portion of Main Street in the heart of downtown Salt Lake City that was sold to the Church in 1999. In connection with that sale, the City sought to impose patently unconstitutional speech restrictions on the plaza by characterizing it as “private” even though the City reserved an easement and thereby maintained a public right of way through the property. In Main Street I, the Tenth Circuit held that the plaza was unquestionably a public forum despite the city’s characterization of the property as private.
