Order
Re: ECF No. 177
The court found Tackett to be in civil contempt of the court’s orders to return the
11 approximately 130,000 pounds of turquoise ore to Plaintiffs, and gave Tackett until noon on
12 August 11, 2021, to file a notice advising the court and Plaintiffs of the location of the 130,000
13 pounds of turquoise ore sold to him by the Plaintiffs. If he did not do so, the court said it would
14 issue a warrant for his arrest and have him incarcerated until he complies with the court’s orders
15 to purge his contempt. (ECF No. 175.) Tackett sought and was granted an extension until noon
16 on August 16, 2021, to file his notice. (ECF Nos. 176, 177.) Tackett filed his notice on
17 August 16, 2021. (ECF No. 178.)

Tackett maintains that all the turquoise he received from the Plaintiffs is located in the
19 fenced yard portion of the property at 2711 E. Lakin Drive in Flagstaff, Arizona, and that the 34
20 totes, one bag, and 4 small buckets of material encompass the entire amount of material that
21 came from Plaintiffs’ property.
