1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 9 FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 10 SAN FRANCISCO DIVISION Northern District of California United States District Court 11 12 13 14 Case No.: C 11-4971 LB CALLIE MAIDHOF, et al., Plaintiffs, 16 v. MITCHELL CELAYA, HARRY LEGRANDE, MARC DECOULODE, and ROBERT J. BIRGENEAU, 17 ORDER GRANTING IN PART AND DENYING IN PART DEFENDANTS’ MOTION TO DISMISS Defendants. 15 I. 18 19 INTRODUCTION In this putative class action, named plaintiffs, Callie Maidhof, Zachary Solomon Miller, 20 Brian Glasscock, Laura Zelko, Joshua Clover, and Luzilda Carrillo—on behalf of themselves and 21 60 other individuals (collectively, “Plaintiffs”)—assert Fourth and First Amendment civil rights 22 claims arising from their arrest and detention following a 2009 protest on the University of 23 California, Berkeley (“University”) campus. Am. Compl. (“Complaint”), ECF No. 14.1 In their 24 first claim, Plaintiffs allege that the University of California, Berkeley Police Department 25 (“UCBPD”), acting on the orders of University officials, arrested them without probable cause, 26 wrongfully detained them on campus for several hours, and sent them to Alameda County Jail for 27 28 1 Citations are to the Electronic Case File (“ECF”) with pin cites to the electronic page number at the top of the document, not the pages at the bottom. Case No. 11-CV-4971 LB ORDER 1 processing in violation of the Fourth Amendment. In their second claim, Plaintiffs allege that the 2 University and UCBPD normally cite and release nonviolent misdemeanants, but here sent 3 Plaintiffs to jail in retaliation for their exercise of their First Amendment rights. See Id. at 10, 4 ¶¶ 48-49. Plaintiffs seek relief from three defendants:2   5 6  7 UCBPD Chief Mitchell Celaya (“Celaya”); University Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs, Harry LeGrande (“LeGrande”); and University Chancellor Robert J. Birgeneau (“Birgeneau”). 8 Id. at 4-5, ¶¶ 15-18. Plaintiffs seek damages against the individual defendants and injunctive 9 relief against all defendants. Id. at 2, ¶¶ 1-2. Defendants jointly move to dismiss Plaintiffs‟ Northern District of California second claim for relief, which alleges that Celaya and LeGrande, in their personal capacities, and 11 United States District Court 10 all three remaining defendants in their official capacities, violated Plaintiffs‟ rights under the First 12 Amendment. 13 After considering the case history, the parties‟ papers, and law, the court determines that 14 this matter is appropriate for resolution without oral argument. N.D. Cal. L.R. 7-1(b). The court 15 now DENIES in part and GRANTS in part Defendants‟ motion to dismiss Plaintiffs‟ First 16 Amended Complaint. II. 17 18 FACTS Plaintiffs seek to represent a class of present and former University students and 19 community members3 who set up an informational session they called the Open University in 20 Wheeler Hall on the University campus. Id. at 2, ¶ 3. The purpose of the Open University was to 21 protest University budget cuts, tuition increases, and the “skewed priorities” of the University of 22 California system. Id. at 6, ¶ 27. Plaintiffs intended for the Open University to operate 24 hours a 23 day from December 7 to December 12, 2009. Id. at 2, ¶ 3, 6, ¶ 25. University officials, including 24 25 26 27 28 2 On February 28th, 2012, Plaintiffs dismissed all claims against Mark Decoulode. Notice of Dismissal, ECF No. 21. 3 The Complaint refers to all Plaintiffs as “students” while acknowledging that some Plaintiffs were not students. Compare Compl., ECF No. 14 at 2, ¶ 3, with 10, ¶ 48. For ease of reference, the court will follow Plaintiffs‟ usage. Case No. 11-CV-4971 LB ORDER 2 1 Celaya and LeGrande, had advance notice of the planned Open University protest and decided not 2 to prevent it from going forward. Id. at 7, ¶ 28. 3 On December 7, 2009, the protestors entered Wheeler Hall and began their protest. Id. at 4 7, ¶ 31. When the building closed, the protestors refused to comply with a UCBPD order to leave 5 the premises. Id. at 7, ¶¶ 32-33. Eventually, the students, UCBPD, and Defendants agreed to an 6 arrangement whereby the protestors could remain in Wheeler Hall for the night. Id. at 7, ¶ 33. 7 The next day, University officials, including Celaya and LeGrande, held a meeting to morning of Saturday, December 11. Id. UCBPD relayed this information to the protestors, 10 telling them they would be given “informal sanction” to continue the Open University until 11 Northern District of California discuss the protests. Id. at 8, ¶ 25. They agreed to permit the protest to continue until the 9 United States District Court 8 Saturday morning. Id. at 8, ¶ 36. UCBPD officers were present in Wheeler Hall throughout the 12 protest and permitted the protestors to enter and leave Wheeler Hall unhindered. Id. at 8, ¶¶ 34- 13 39, 9, ¶ 44. 14 On Thursday, December 10, University officials learned that the protestors planned to 15 stage a concert to celebrate the end of the Open University. Id. at 8, ¶ 40. University officials 16 and student representatives met to discuss the planned concert. Id. During another private 17 meeting, however, University officials, including LeGrande and Celaya decided to have all of the 18 protestors arrested, though they never communicated this decision to the students. Id. at 9, 19 ¶¶ 41, 43. 20 Early in the morning on Friday, December 11, 2009, UCBPD officers acting on the orders 21 of Celaya and LeGrande sealed off the doors to Wheeler Hall and began arresting the students as 22 they slept. Id. at 9, ¶ 46. In total, the UCBPD arrested 66 students, who were then detained in the 23 basement of Wheeler Hall, processed, and interrogated for several hours. Id. at 10, ¶ 48. The 24 arrested students were then transferred to Alameda County Jail. Id. 25 The UCBPD generally cites and releases people who have committed non-violent 26 misdemeanors. Id. at 10, ¶ 49. According to Plaintiffs, however, the UCBPD has a policy of 27 jailing protestors exercising their First Amendment rights in order to punish them and discourage 28 future protests. Id. at 10, ¶¶ 49, 51. In this instance, the decision to send the protestors to Case No. 11-CV-4971 LB ORDER 3 1 Alameda County Jail, rather than citing and releasing them, was made by Celaya and LeGrande, 2 allegedly with Birgeneau‟s agreement. Id. at 10, ¶ 50. In fact, Celaya indicated that jailing the 3 arrested students was beneficial because it prevented them from joining the protests that arose in 4 response to their arrest. Id. at 10, ¶ 52. 5 III. 6 7 LEGAL STANDARDS A. Motion to Dismiss A court may dismiss a complaint under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6) when it 8 does not contain enough facts to state a claim for relief that is plausible on its face. See Bell 9 Atlantic Corp. v. Twombly, 550 U.S. 544, 570 (2007). “A claim has facial plausibility when the Northern District of California plaintiff pleads factual content that allows the court to draw the reasonable inference that the 11 United States District Court 10 defendant is liable for the misconduct alleged.” Ashcroft v. Iqbal, 556 U.S. 662, 678 (2009). 12 “The plausibility standard is not akin to a „probability requirement,‟ but it asks for more than a 13 sheer possibility that a defendant has acted unlawfully.” Id. (quoting Twombly, 550 U.S. at 557). 14 “While a complaint attacked by a Rule 12(b)(6) motion to dismiss does not need detailed factual 15 allegations, a plaintiff‟s obligation to provide the „grounds‟ of his „entitle[ment] to relief requires 16 more than labels and conclusions, and a formulaic recitation of the elements of a cause of action 17 will not do. Factual allegations must be enough to raise a right to relief above the speculative 18 level.” Twombly, 500 U.S. at 555 (internal citations and parentheticals omitted). “In sum, for a 19 complaint to survive a motion to dismiss, the non-conclusory factual content, and reasonable 20 inferences from that content, must be plausibly suggestive of a claim entitling the plaintiff to 21 relief.” Moss v. U.S. Secret Service, 572 F.3d 962, 969 (9th Cir. 2009) (internal quotation 22 omitted). 23 In considering a motion to dismiss, a court must accept as true all well-pleaded factual 24 allegations and construe them in the light most favorable to the plaintiff. See Bell Atlantic Corp. 25 v. Twombly, 550 U.S. 544, 550 (2007); Erickson v. Pardus, 551 U.S. 89, 93-94 (2007); Vasquez v. 26 Los Angeles Cnty., 487 F.3d 1246, 1249 (9th Cir. 2007). 27 28 If the court dismisses the complaint, it should grant leave to amend even if no request to amend is made “unless it determines that the pleading could not possibly be cured by the Case No. 11-CV-4971 LB ORDER 4 1 allegation of other facts.” Lopez v. Smith, 203 F.3d 1122, 1127 (9th Cir. 2000) (quoting Cook, 2 Perkiss and Liehe, Inc. v. N. Cal. Collection Serv. Inc., 911 F.2d 242, 247 (9th Cir. 1990)). 3 4 B. 42 U.S.C. § 1983 Plaintiffs‟ claims arise under 42 U.S.C. § 1983. To state a claim under 42 U.S.C. § 1983, 5 a plaintiff must allege two elements: (1) that a right secured by the constitution or laws of the 6 United States was violated, and (2) that the alleged violation was committed by a person acting 7 under the color of state law. See West v. Atkins, 487 U.S. 42, 48 (1988). Further, in order to 8 establish individual liability under 42 U.S.C. § 1983, “a plaintiff must plead that each 9 Government-official defendant, through the official‟s own actions, has violated the Constitution.” 10 Iqbal, 556 U.S. at 676. Northern District of California United States District Court 11 12 IV. DISCUSSION Defendants move for dismissal on the grounds that the factual allegations in the Complaint are 13 insufficient to plausibly establish Plaintiffs‟ entitlement to relief against any Defendants, whether 14 in their individual or official capacities. Mem. of P. & A., ECF No. 18 at 6. The court will 15 analyze Plaintiffs‟ individual and official capacity claims in turn. 16 A. Plaintiffs’ Individual Capacity Claims 17 Plaintiffs seek damages from UCBPD Chief Celaya and University Vice Chancellor for 18 Student Affairs LeGrande in their individual capacities for allegedly retaliating against them in 19 violation of the First Amendment. Compl., ECF No. 14 at 10, ¶¶ 50-51, 12, ¶ 59. In order to 20 prevail on this claim, Protestors must eventually show that: (1) Defendants took action “that 21 would chill or silence a person of ordinary firmness from future First Amendment activities” and 22 (2) that the “desire to cause the chilling effect was a but-for cause of the defendants‟ action.” 23 Skoog v. County of Clackamas, 469 F.3d 1221, 1232 (9th Cir. 2006). 24 Defendants‟ motion to dismiss Plaintiffs‟ individual capacity claims is solely directed to 25 the sufficiency of the allegations under the second Skoog element, which requires a showing of 26 retaliatory intent. Reply, ECF No. 20 at 1-2. Defendants argue that the Complaint fails to allege 27 retaliatory intent because Plaintiffs‟ allegations are based on conclusory assertions rather than 28 factual content. Mem. of P. & A., ECF No. 18 at 11. Thus, the main inquiry before the court is Case No. 11-CV-4971 LB ORDER 5 1 whether Plaintiffs have sufficiently alleged that Celaya and LeGrande had them arrested and sent 2 to Alameda County Jail in order to punish them “for engaging in free speech or to discourage 3 others from engaging in free speech in the future.” Compl., ECF No. 14 at 5, ¶ 21. 4 As an initial step, Plaintiffs sufficiently allege that it was Celaya and LeGrande, at least in 5 part, who had them arrested and sent to Alameda County Jail. Plaintiffs specifically allege that 6 Celaya and LeGrande, with Birgeneau‟s agreement, decided to send Plaintiffs to Alameda County 7 Jail instead of citing and releasing them. Compl., ECF No. 14 at 10, ¶ 50. The court does not 8 assume the truth of this conclusory allegation, however, based on the Supreme Court‟s analysis in 9 Iqbal. There, Iqbal alleged that former Attorney General Ashcroft was the “principal architect” of Northern District of California the allegedly unlawful policy and that former FBI Director Mueller “was „instrumental‟ in 11 United States District Court 10 adopting and executing it.” Iqbal, 556 U.S. at 680-81. The Supreme Court found that these 12 allegations were “nothing more than a formulaic recitation of the elements of a constitutional 13 discrimination claim….” Id. at 681. For the same reasons, the court does not assume the truth of 14 the allegations in paragraph 50 of Plaintiffs‟ Complaint. Rather, Plaintiffs must support these 15 conclusions with other factual allegations. 16 Plaintiffs‟ other factual allegations, however, are sufficient. First, in their roles as Chief of 17 the UCBPD and University Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs, Celaya and LeGrande were 18 likely to be involved in decisions regarding protests on campus. Compl., ECF No. 14 at 4, ¶¶ 15- 19 16. Second, Plaintiffs allege that they obtained documents indicating that Celaya and LeGrande 20 had advance knowledge of Plaintiffs‟ plans and attended meetings where it was decided to let the 21 protest proceed. Id. at 6-8, ¶¶ 28, 35. Third, Plaintiffs claim to have obtained documents 22 showing that Celaya and LeGrande, in conjunction with other University officials, decided to 23 have Plaintiffs arrested after learning that they planned to stage a concert. Id. at 8-9, ¶¶ 40-41. 24 These allegations provide sufficient factual support for the otherwise conclusory allegation that 25 Celaya and LeGrande ordered the University police to arrest Plaintiffs. See Id. at 9, ¶ 42. It is 26 reasonable to infer from the same facts that Celaya and LeGrande may have decided to process 27 Plaintiffs at Alameda County Jail, rather than citing and releasing them. Thus, the final question 28 Case No. 11-CV-4971 LB ORDER 6 1 is whether Plaintiffs have plausibly alleged that Celaya and LeGrande were each acting out of 2 retaliatory intent in sending them to the county jail. 3 Defendants argue that Plaintiffs‟ retaliatory intent allegations are conclusory. See, e.g., 4 Mem. of P. & A., ECF No. 18 at 10. For example, the Complaint states that “the decision to send 5 the Plaintiffs to jail was made in order to punish students for exercising their First Amendment 6 rights and to dissuade people from protesting at UC Berkeley in the future.” ECF No. 14 at 10, ¶ 7 51. As Defendants point out, in Moss, the Ninth Circuit found analogous allegations of 8 impermissible motive to be conclusory and not entitled to an assumption of truth without further 9 factual support. Reply, ECF No. 20 at 8 (citing Moss, 572 F.3d at 970). Here, the court agrees 10 Northern District of California United States District Court 11 that the allegation in paragraph 51 of the complaint is conclusory. Nonetheless, Plaintiffs have alleged other facts that sufficiently support their general 12 allegations of retaliatory intent. For example, in paragraph 49 of the First Amended Complaint, 13 Plaintiffs make two allegations: (1) that UCBPD generally cites and releases nonviolent 14 misdemeanants, and (2) that arresting, rather than citing and releasing, nonviolent misdemeanants 15 is a violation of California law. Defendants argue that the first allegation is vague and the second 16 allegation is legally incorrect.4 Mem. of P. & A., ECF No. 18 at 11. Although somewhat general, 17 Plaintiffs‟ allegation regarding UCBPD‟s practice of citing and releasing nonviolent 18 misdemeanants is a statement of fact entitled to the presumption of truth. The statement is further 19 supported by allegations that many Plaintiffs are University students, who are likely to have 20 knowledge of such practices. See Compl., ECF No. 14 at 3-4 ¶¶ 9-14. The court, however, does 21 not assume the truth of Plaintiffs‟ legal conclusion that UCBPD is required to cite and release 22 nonviolent misdemeanants. Still, in combination with the other factual allegations, Plaintiffs have 23 plausibly alleged that their alleged mistreatment was retaliatory because they were detained and 24 25 26 27 28 The parties spend much of their briefing disputing whether Defendants‟ alleged actions constitute violations of California Penal Code § 853.6. See, e.g., Mem. of P. & A., ECF No. 18 at 11-12; Opp‟n, ECF No. 19 at 10-11; Reply, ECF No. 20 at 4-5. While Defendants‟ statutory analysis is compelling, the court‟s ultimate ruling is not predicated on finding retaliatory intent through any such statutory violation. Case No. 11-CV-4971 LB ORDER 7 4 1 processed differently from other misdemeanants who were not arrested while exercising their 2 First Amendment rights. 3 Finally, Plaintiffs must allege that each individual defendant acted with the requisite 4 retaliatory intent and was a but-for cause of the constitutional rights violations at issue. Leer v. 5 Murphy, 844 F.2d 628, 633 (9th Cir. 1988); Mem. of P. & A., ECF No. 18 at 17; Reply, ECF No. 6 20 at 9. Plaintiffs easily satisfy this burden with regard to UCBPD Chief Celaya. According to 7 the Complaint, Celaya indicated that the benefit of sending the students to the county jail was that 8 they would not be available to join the protests that arose in response to their arrests. Id. at 9 10, ¶ 52. Defendants argue that this “post-arrest comment” 5 fails to establish retaliatory intent Northern District of California because it “says nothing about the pre-arrest decision to transport the arrestees to [Alameda 11 United States District Court 10 County Jail] for booking….” Mem. of P. & A., ECF No. 18 at 18. Given the liberal pleading 12 standards of Rule 8, the court finds that this statement is sufficient to plausibly allege retaliatory 13 intent at this stage of the proceedings. 14 Plaintiffs also sufficiently allege that Vice Chancellor LeGrande acted with retaliatory 15 intent for the purpose of chilling free speech. As discussed, the Complaint makes specific factual 16 allegations supporting the inference that LeGrande decided to have Plaintiffs arrested and 17 processed at Alameda County Jail. This represents an abrupt change from the University‟s 18 previously tolerant attitude toward Plaintiffs. One plausible explanation for this change is that 19 LeGrande decided to punish Plaintiffs in the hope of chilling further First Amendment activities. 20 Plaintiffs allege that these acts were done with the motive to retaliate against them and were the 21 proximate cause of injury and damages. Compl., ECF No. 14 at 12, ¶ 60. At this early stage of 22 the pleadings, the court finds that the factual allegations plausibly suggest that LeGrande may 23 have been motivated by retaliatory intent. 24 25 As discussed, Plaintiffs‟ well-pleaded factual allegations plausibly support their claims for retaliatory conduct in violation of the First Amendment. Accordingly, Defendants‟ Motion to 26 27 28 The Complaint does not actually indicate when Celaya made the alleged statement, though Plaintiffs implicitly concede that it was made after Plaintiffs were transported to the county jail. See Opp‟n, ECF No. 19 at 13. Case No. 11-CV-4971 LB ORDER 8 5 1 Dismiss is DENIED as to Defendants Mitchell Celaya and Harry Legrande, in their individual 2 capacities. 3 4 B. Plaintiffs’ Official Capacity Claims Plaintiffs‟ official capacity claims seek to enjoin Celaya, LeGrande, and Birgeneau from 5 transporting nonviolent protestors to jail for processing instead of citing and releasing them. 6 Compl., ECF No. 14 at 12, ¶ 59. Official capacity suits are “another way of pleading an action 7 against an entity of which an officer is an agent.” Kentucky v. Graham, 473 U.S. 159, 165 (1985) 8 (quoting Monell v. New York City Dep’t of Soc. Servs., 436 U.S. 658, 690, n. 55 (1978) (quotation 9 marks omitted)). Because a suit against an official in his or her official capacity is a suit against Northern District of California the state, a practice, policy, or procedure of the state must be at issue in a claim for official 11 United States District Court 10 capacity injunctive relief. Hafer v. Melo, 502 U.S. 21, 25 (1991). 12 In order to survive a motion to dismiss, the plaintiff must allege a specific policy, custom, 13 or habit that led to the constitutional deprivation at issue. See Hydrick v. Hunter, 669 F.3d 937, 14 942 (9th Cir. 2012). Plaintiffs claim that Defendants are University “policy makers responsible 15 for establishing final policy with respect to the subject matter in question.” Opp‟n, ECF No. 19 at 16 12 (quoting Pembaur v. City of Cincinnati, 475 U.S. 469, 483 (1986) (quotation marks omitted)). 17 By alleging that Defendants caused the constitutional violations at issue, Plaintiffs claim they 18 have sufficiently alleged University policy for Monell purposes. In their Reply, Defendants do 19 not challenge Plaintiffs‟ assertion that they are policy makers. Instead, Defendants concede that 20 Plaintiffs have sufficiently alleged the threshold requirements for their official capacity claims. 21 See Reply, ECF No. 20, at n. 2. 22 As previously discussed, Plaintiffs have stated plausible First Amendment claims against 23 Celaya and LeGrande. Because Plaintiffs sufficiently allege Monell liability, Defendants‟ Motion 24 to Dismiss Plaintiffs‟ First Amendment claims against Celaya and LeGrande in their official 25 capacities is DENIED. 26 Plaintiffs‟ second claim for relief fails as to Chancellor Birgeneau, however. Unlike the 27 allegations against Celaya and LeGrande, the allegations against Birgeneau are entirely 28 conclusory. See Compl., ECF No. 14 at 10, ¶ 50 (stating, without factual support, that Birgeneau Case No. 11-CV-4971 LB ORDER 9 1 agreed with the decision to send Plaintiffs to Alameda County Jail). Plaintiffs provide no factual 2 content to support these allegations. Accordingly, Defendants‟ Motion to Dismiss Plaintiffs‟ First 3 Amendment claim against Chancellor Birgeneau in his official capacity is GRANTED. Since 4 leave to amend shall be freely given, however, the court grants Defendants‟ Motion to Dismiss 5 with leave to amend. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 15(a). C. Defendants’ “Alternative Explanations” Argument 6 Defendants suggest an additional rationale for dismissing Plaintiffs‟ First Amendment 7 “obvious alternative explanation” mandates dismissal. See Mem. of P. & A., ECF No. 18 at 14; 10 Reply, ECF No. 20 at 5. Specifically, Defendants speculate that UCBPD might have transferred 11 Northern District of California claims. They argue there are “obvious alternative explanations” for the facts alleged and that an 9 United States District Court 8 Plaintiffs to Alameda County Jail because they had difficulty processing so many arrestees at the 12 same time. Mem. of P. & A., ECF No. 18 at 14. According to Defendants, “where there is a 13 choice between an „obvious alternative explanation‟ for the challenged conduct on the one hand, 14 and the purposeful, invidious retaliation alleged by Plaintiffs on the other, retaliation is not a 15 plausible conclusion.” Reply, ECF No. 20 at 5 (quoting Iqbal, 556 U.S. at 682). Plaintiffs 16 respond by attacking Defendants‟ alternative explanation. See Opp‟n, ECF No. 19 at 10. 17 Defendants‟ argument fails because it is based on a misinterpretation of the pleading 18 standard. Contrary to Defendants‟ assertions, Iqbal did not hold that any obvious alternative 19 explanation was sufficient to defeat a complaint. Rather, the Court examined the extraordinarily 20 persuasive alternative explanation before it and “concluded that this alternative explanation was 21 so likely to be true that, as between the two explanations, Iqbal‟s explanation was not plausible.” 22 Starr v. Baca, 652 F.3d 1202, 1214 (9th Cir. 2011). In contrast, Defendants‟ interpretation of the 23 facts alleged does not render Plaintiffs‟ explanation implausible. Where, as here, “there are two 24 alternative explanations, one advanced by defendant and the other advanced by plaintiff, both of 25 which are plausible, plaintiff‟s complaint survives a motion to dismiss under rule 12(b)(6).” Id. at 26 1216. 27 /// 28 /// Case No. 11-CV-4971 LB ORDER 10 1 2 V. CONCLUSION For the foregoing reasons, the court DENIES Defendants‟ Motion to Dismiss Plaintiffs‟ 3 claims against Celaya and LeGrande in their individual and official capacities, and GRANTS 4 Defendants‟ Motion to Dismiss against Birgeneau with leave to amend. Plaintiffs have twenty- 5 one days to file an amended complaint. 6 Dated: April 25, 2012 7 ___________________________ LAUREL BEELER United States Magistrate Judge 8 9 10 Northern District of California United States District Court 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 Case No. 11-CV-4971 LB ORDER 11
