JAMAL RASHID TRULOVE,
Plaintiff,
v.

Case No. 16-cv-050 YGR
SUMMONS AND ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE
RE: CONTEMPT

MAUREEN D’AMICO, MICHAEL JOHNSON,
ROBERT MCMILLAN, AND JOHN EVANS
Defendants.
TO: CARLA LEE HURLEY -YOU ARE HEREBY ORDERED TO SHOW CAUSE why you should not be held in contempt,
and sanctions imposed, for your failure to obey this Court’s Pre-Trial Order in giving your trial
testimony on April 3, 2018, in the above-captioned matter.
That Pre-Trial Order was made on the record on March 3, 2018, and required all witnesses
to use the word “group” rather than the word “gang,” as use of the latter would be unduly
prejudicial and inflammatory. As confirmed by defendants’ counsel on the record on April 3 and
4, 2018, you were specifically informed of the Pre-Trial Order prior to your testimony. You
instead substituted the words “criminal organization” in place of the word “gang,” increasing the
unduly prejudicial and inflammatory nature of the characterization.
YOU ARE ORDERED TO APPEAR on April 18, 2018, at 10:00 a.m., at the United States
District Court, Courtroom One, Fourth Floor, 1301 Clay Street, Oakland, 94612, for an
evidentiary hearing.
YOU ARE ADVISED that at the evidentiary hearing, you will be required to give testimony
under oath. You are advised that you have the right to retain the service of an attorney in

1

connection with this hearing. Except for retained counsel, you are ordered not to speak with

2

anyone prior to the evidentiary hearing regarding your testimony on April 3, 2018, in the above-

3

captioned matter.
Any written response to this Order to Show Cause shall be filed no later than April 16,

2018.

7

Office will accept service of summons on behalf of Ms. Hurley. The Clerk shall forward a copy of

this Order to Show Cause to Mr. Connolly via the email address provided to the Court. Mr.
