Zach Coughlin, files this on his own behalf, the above title document.
Columbus Prop. Inc. v. I S K S Realty Corp., 621 N.Y.S.2d 277 N.Y.City.Civ.,1994 Because
petitioner in summary proceeding under Real Property Actions and Proceedings Law obtains benefit
of expedited and simplified procedure which bypasses many of usual procedural steps of plenary

21

action, petitioner must prove strict compliance with all requirements for summary proceeding; as

omission of required act of service is fatal to plenary.

FACTS
1.

On February 27th, 2012, while awaiting trial before Judge Nash Holmes in 11 TR

25
26

26800, and in a private meeting with Reno City Attorney Allison Ormaas in one of the private

27

conference/meeting rooms outside the interior doors to the court room, RMC Marshal Harley entered

28

the room and purported to personally serve Coughlin a document in the appeal of the eviction from

AMENDMENT TO OPPOSITION TO BAR COUNSEL'S SCR 111(4) PETITION


Docket 61901 Document 2013-19877

Coughlin's former home law office, in CV11-03628, apparently at the direction of Richard G. Hill,

Esq., on behalf of his client Merliss (the landlord, whom all three of the appointed defenders provided

3
4
5
6

by the RMC to Coughlin refused to subpoena, apparently because it would cut into their $7K fee from
the RMC and because of an apparent desire to torpedo Coughlin's defense, despite Merliss being a
material witness. Further, it is believed OFficer Carter and Sargent Lopez were subpoened by the

City, and perhaps by Coughlin, though a continuance was denied upon their faling to appear).

Washoe County Sheriff's Deputy John Machen filed a false Affidavit of Service on November 7th,

9
10
11
12

2011, in RJC Rev2011-001708 alleging to have "personally served" Coughlin. This is arguably a
violation of the "courthouse sanctuary" doctrine.
When Judge Nash resume the proceedings in 11 TR 26800 (which Coughlin was not

13

appaently noticed on in writing and did not attend, though he did file a Request for Continuance of

14

some sort on or about March 9th, 2012) the audio record of that Trial begins with the Court Marshal

15

confirming with Judge Nash Holmes and City Attorney Ormaas that they want him to "lock that door"

16

so "no one else can come in".... At that hearing judge Nash found at the 3 min. 32nd mark goes on to

17
18

detail her explanation of how it is Reno meeting court could keep retain and failed to return even after

19

Coughlin's mother filed a motion for the return thereof the hundred dollars that she deposited with

20

Reno many court to get Coughlin released one day early from his five-day summary criminal

21

contempt conviction that judge Nash Holmes entered on favorite 27 2000 and well incident to the

22

traffic citation matter stemming from Richard Hill's Locke's cock and she alludes to the jail releasing

23
24

Coughlin in their upon rebooking him or something based upon some Reno justice court matter but

25

some fact is you taking someone who is incarcerated or detained back down the the booking counter

26

is not quite tantamount releasing them sufficient to allow the Reno Municipal Court retain some

27

hundred dollars that it agreed to accept should the defendant be released from jail there is little bit of a

difference there between being released from jail and having a deputy the Milwaukee down the the in

handcuffs to the booking counter for 2 min. to check off some box and it's it's intellectually dishonest

3
4
5
6

for judge Nash Holmes to suggest otherwise. Judge Nash Holmes then goes on to make some
tortuous attempt to find submitting a request to proceed informal pauperis that included an affidavit of
financial condition that was several months old to be tantamount to an attempt to commit some fraud

on the court (apparently broke people are supposed to pay a notary $5 each and every time the submit

an IFP under NRS 12.015 (even where there is not right to appeal the inevitable denial thereof, and

9
10
11
12

even where one's financial condition may have only gotten much worse from late November 2011 to
March 2012)..

Uh....what?... Judge Nash Holmes then at the 6 min. mark proceeds to detail her lack

of understanding of NRS 178.405 wherein she purports to diagnosis Coughlin as suffering from some

13

sort of disability or lack of competency only to then go on in purport to find by clear and convincing

14

evidence some alleged file a shins of the rules of professional conduct seeing as how judge Nash

15

Holmes at that point transmogrified a traffic citation trial into a full-blown disciplinary hearing.

16
17
18

All of the allegations herein also relate to "irregularities" in the proceedings and prosecutorial

19

misconduct" justfying the relief requested herein. Coughlin's ability to get this exculpatory video

20

wherein Sargent Lopez admits RPD Officer Carter and Richard Hill, Esq. and Casey Baker, Esq. lied,

21

under oath (in Hill's case) at the June 18th, 2012 Trial and in violation of NRCP Rule 11 (in Baker's

22

case in his November 21st, 2011 Opposition to Coughlin's Motion to Contest Personal Property Lien)

23
24

was severaly compromised, to an excusable neglect extent, and to a good cause standard, by the

25

various fraudulent, retaliatory arrests and incarcerations (which often involve arbitrary denial of

26

detainee's medications and access to even one sheet of paper, even where indigent, to file a

27

document), and the fraudulent attempts by RPD in sending out Officer Warren (who is a specialized

28

officer in that regard and may well have good intentions, but the City Attorney and the RPD do him

no favors where they attempt to cover over police misconduct by diagnosing the victim of it) and

others to alienate Coughlin from his family and any other type of a support system, all in the name of
covering up wrongful arrests by the WCPD, and or WCSO and or wrongful "summary contempt"

the WCDA's Office just so happens to be one (false statement to a public officer) that fits nicely into

make things "combo-trials") want to get into too deeply just how exactly their office noticed Coughlin

on (they didn't, then tried to play it like they "saved the day with their brilliant advocacy" when

14

Coughlin "failed to show up" (which Court records indicate is now a basis for incarcerating Couglin

like Coughlin have no right to know where filed or to be provided a copy thereof, regardless of

20

whether Coughlin had previously sent express written notice that he demanded as much, as politely as

21

possible in RCR2012-065630) , in addition to WCSO Deputy Machen's fraudulent arrest of Coughlin

alleged wearing of "pajama bottoms" to the RMC filing office coutner while checking a traffic

phone, and micro sd card is not a "search incident to arrest", and a warrant needs to be produced to

15

show how the RMC and or the Marshal did not violate the Fourth Amendment. Further, the RMC

16

20

how could Coughlin's answers to Judge Nash Holmes sua sponte interrogation, incident to improper

21

suggestions made to her by the Reno Marshals and or City Attorney Allison Ormass, possibly be

appropriate? Further, in CR12-0376 Coughlin's rights were raped by the court system, and WCPD

Coughlin: Sargent Lopez are you going to arrest Nevada court
services for trespass?
Lopez: I'm not going to arrest them for trespass.
Coughlin: but you arrested me for trespass.
Lopez: because you were squatting in the property.
Coughlin: why do you say that you have any evidence of that? (5
seconds of silence is Sargent Lopez's response) did you
announce that you were Reno PD prior to kicking the door in?
Lopez: I didn't kick the door in.
Coughlin: did you announce that you are Reno PD prior to
anybody kicking the door in?
Lopez: I didn't have to,
Coughlin: so nobody announced that they were Reno PD?
Lopez: because the guy who kicked it in had to kick in his own
door because you were squatting in his place.
Coughlin: so you are admitting that you guys didn't announce that
you were Reno PD.
Lopez: you are wearing my patience thin, Sir, okay. I am trying
to come here to help you, and I bring a specialized officer
(motioning to RPD Officer Travis Warren, whom has been
described as some sort of RPD Officer with some specialty in
"mental health" related areas).
Coughlin: that's interesting, you admit that you and Officer Carter
never announced that you are Reno PD, and that you never asked
me to leave, did you, prior to the door being kicked in?
Officer Travis Warren: She didn't have to do anything like that.
Coughlin: you didn't have to! That's great, but that means you
didn't either.
Warren: hold on Zach. You asked us to come here because you
needed help now you are being confrontational.
Coughlin: no I'm not, no not. Anybody who asked you a question
is confrontational, I guess, huh?
Warren: Zach, let's try to stay on topic.
Coughlin: On topic? I'm not on the topic you want me to be on.
Warren: Zach the topic that I'm interested in...
Coughlin: Is the one that covers your ass!
Warren: No, it's not.
Coughlin: Yes, it is."

either you or your partner either of those things when you
arrested me for trespass. Are you been arrest Nevada Court
Services for the trespass that there is video evidence of on
YouTube right now? Are you can a do that, Sargent? Sargent, are
you?
Warren: Zach, that's not the topic were on.
Coughlin: Are you going to do that, Sargent? Sargent, are you?
Lopez: are you going to fill out your statement?
Coughlin: sure. Are you going to do that?
Lopez: I am not going to arrest Nevada Court Services.
Coughlin: Why, are they your buddies?
Lopez: because they did their job.
Coughlin: wait a did their job by going behind my back fence and
banging on my windows for 45 minutes three times a time a day?
Interesting...
Lopez: Zach, we need you to fill out the paper.
Coughlin: Interesting how it works down there at the Reno PD.
You know, there is a lots of documentary filmmakers out there
these days, Sargent Lopez? Do you have anything you would
like to say?
Lopez: Zach, you need to finish your statement.
Warren: Zach, you call us here to help you, and now your are...
Coughlin: well apparently not because you arrest me for trespass
when you either didn't tell me to leave for announced that you
were the PD (police Department) and then you have video
evidence of Nevada Court Services doing trespassing harassing
banging on windows for 40 min. at a clip three times a day,
behind a back gate is obviously trespassing, and you are seeing
you are not going to do anything...
Lopez: have you had your day in court on that yet?
Coughlin:That is coming up.
...
Warren: Zach, we really need to stay on topic, okay?
Coughlin: What is the topic? Nevada Court Services? The
buddies of Sargent Lopez?
Warren: No...
...
Coughlin: are you guys going to do anything on this call because
the last time you didn't run anybody's priors and if you had it
would have been interesting what you would have found, what
did you say? Is that proper procedure children somebody's priors?
Lopez: The priors for who?

says that Richard Hill pays him a lot of money to arrest whom he
says to?

questions of whether Richard Hill had given me a bill for rent that

Coughlin: I think that's funny, that you think it's funny.
Lopez: 4 min. Zach
...
Lopez:, did the management give you an eviction notice?
Coughlin: what are you getting involved in civil matters now?
You are going above and beyond, Sargent Lopez, getting
involved in civil matters...
Lopez: Zach did they give you an eviction notice or not?
Coughlin: wow you are working of the storm over there aren't
you
Lopez: Yes or no:
Warren: you could say no comment, Zach.
Coughlin: thank you, counselor. I appreciate your advice. Now,
what criminal matter were you investigating here?
Lopez: I am asking you a question.
Coughlin: About a what? A civil matter?
Lopez: Zach, did you get an eviction notice from these guys
(Sargent Lopez is referring to Western Nevada Management
posting a John Doe 30 day eviction notice, allegedly, on the door
of the 1422 E. 9th St. #2 town home that WNM (which, like
NCS, commits the unauthorized practice of landlord tenant law)
had agreed to some deal with Coughlin's housemates (or maybe
they were his sublessors? Coughlin rented a room from them off
of Craigslist, but to some extent they were held out to be
employees or partners of WNM, and WNM did testify at a
February 23rd, 2012 hearing after Coughlin filed an interruption
of essential services complaint against WNM, Gayle Kern, Esq.,
LTD, and Park Terrace Townhomes that former WNM manager,
Robyn Batalado received approval from the Park Terrace Town
Homes Homeowners Associattion to allow Coughlin's sublessors
to live their in exchange for some handyman work (and perhaps

bought the unit at a foreclosure sale).
Warren: We will take that as a yes or no, or a maybe, who
knows? All right, Zach? You are not going to be able to bait us
into saying things?
Coughlin: Well, I've been listening to you here whether you've
been baited or not, you have said a whole lot today.
...
Coughlin:... What if Richard Hill sent me a Bill for rent for the month of November, should
you follow phone that before you make it trespass arrest? And what did you say to that? You
say no we are not going to that Richard Hill pays us a lot of money, and we are going to arrest
whom he says to arrest, did you hear that Sargent Lopez?
Warren: Zach, let's stay on topic.
Coughlin: this could be your star turn... This could be your star
turn.
Lopez: you need some help, brother.
Coughlin: really?
Lopez: Yeah, you do.
...(Sargent Lopez and Officers Warren and Avila then leave
shortly thereafter, and Coughlin has the following exchange with
his housemate's/abusers teenage daughter):
Coughlin: look someday, you are trying to support yourself and
someone steals your license plate, and slashes your tires, and
locks you out after you have given them the last money you had...
Teenage Girl's Friend: well, someday we won't be an assh*le like
you
Coughlin:What is an "assh*le" about that?
Teenage Girl: you are f*cking r*tarded, you are being r*tarded,
you're making my dad not like you, you steal his knives. His
steak knives, like seriously?
Coughlin: You mean the one of he held while chasing me up the
stairs with saying he was gonna kill me?
Teenage Girl: He didn't f*ckin' chase you up the stairs and tell
you he was gonna kill you. Why would he say that, he's not like
that. And if he say's it, it doesn't mean he means it. You make
him say that, you f*ckin' pr*ck." (Coughlin was later awared two
different Temporary Protectio Orders against those house mates
in FV12-00187 and FV12-00188).

taken by Hill and landlord Merliss and Coughlin's October 24, 2012 filing matter, especially when
reviewing the materials testing Exhibit 1 which includes Hill's and Baker sworn testimony of June 18,

apparent coaching or lawyering up considering how markedly it differs from Officer Carter's more
contemporaneous written account in his Arrest Report and Declaration of Probable Cause (ARDPC))
Arrest Report and Declaration of Probable Cause, which RPD Officer had to have completed at the
time of Coughlin's booking (ie, no time to get the City Attorney or some other helper to add all that
appears in Officer Carter's Narrative time stamped at 5:12 pm...sure the ARDPC has a stamping of
4:45 pm that is not handwritten (it, its a stamp or digitally created indication, compared to time of the
arrest being listed in Carter's own handwriting of 12 noon and the offense date, again in Carter's own
handwriting being listed as 1 pm...with Carter listed as the transporting office. There is no indication
Carter hung around the WCDC until 4:52 pm...as such his ARDPC is more contemporaneous, and
therefore bares more indicia of reliability as to the facts than his subsequent Narrative, which was
actually created and printed at 5:12 pm on November 14th, 2011, a full 30 hours after arrest time of
noon on 11/13/11. Apparently, a lot of "facts" came back to Carter's memory which just happened to
align with the essential elements of the charge of criminal trespass under the RMC Code 8.10.010.
2000 and
January 12th, 2012 custodial arrest for "pedestrian failing to use sidewalk where available" (aka,
jaywalking) in front of Coughlin's former home law office at 121 River Rock St., Reno, NV 89501.
(in the video Coughlin begins filiming from the parking lot in
fron of his former home law office and walks towards the
property, where Hill's contractor Phil Stewart is already there (for
some reason Hill kept making a deal about how Coughlin was
"already at the property" when Stewart returned their from the
transfer center, but that is not true, Coughlin actually took almost
30 minutes to get to the River Rock Property after the talks at the
transfer center, as Coughlin had to go retrieve his hi 8mm video
camera from his E. 9th St. address on that date.

submitting fraudulent bills? (said to Hill's contractor, Phil
Stewart, owner and operator of Nevada Building Industries
(NBI), whose bill for $1,060 for "securing" the property was
submitted as an attachment in Hill's Memorandum of Costs and
in Hill's Opposition to Coughlin's Motion to Contest Personal
Property Lien under a personalty lien theory citing to NRS
118A.460, which allows for reasonable costs for "moving,
storage, and inventorying" a tenant's personal property). Would
they be okay with that? Neck carpet right there that's Dr. Merliss's
property if you throw it away, you are throwing away the carpet,
so you are on notice and you should tell Richard Hill, if he tries
to sue me for the carpet, and you throw it away, I will sue you for
fraud.

whole of the sidewalk (Stewart's white dumptruck is parked so as


to extend from the drive way out onto the street so as to
completely block the sidewalk, and beyond that, the sidewalk is
dotted with various items Stewart's crew is in the process of
moving from the former home law office) on the southern facing
side of the property in furtherance of their efforts to load up the
rest of Coughlin's personalty and take it to the dump (as there was
apparently an incredibly urgent need to do something with the
property, despite the fact that, to this day, over one year later, it
still remains un-rented).
Coughlin: gentlemen, you are under notice this is my property
and I want it. I believe I might have some legal recourse against
you for destroying my property. I could be wrong. You are
certainly welcome to listen to your boss. You know what is
interesting is that I have proof right here that you used my own
plywood to board up the property and then you try to charge a
thousand dollars for it and for fixing a leak that's my plywood
Phil or whatever your name is, guy with a contractor's license.
(Coughlin is saying this while in the parking lot of the studio
apartments that abuts the backyard fence to his former home law
office (ie, not on the sidewalk even. One of Stewart's laborers
walk up to Coughlin within about 8 feet of him and snaps a flash
photo):
John Doe: What's up?. (snaps another photo of Coughlin in the
parking lots of the Mill Place studio apartments)
Coughlin: Hi, how are you doing? What's your name?
John Doe: John Doe.
Coughlin: John Doe, really?
Doe: Don't get mouthy, buddy.
Coughlin: What's that?
Doe: I said don't get crowley, buddy.
Coughlin: What's "crowley"?
Doe: "Crowley" means like "Crowley Lake".
Coughlin: I don't know what you mean. Anyways Phil what do
you have to say about the fact that you fraudulently submitted a
Bill for thousand dollars for boarding up the property to fix a leak
yet you used my plywood to do it, Phil?
John Doe: Hey, can you stay away from him (motioning to Phil
Stewart)?
Coughlin: I am on a public spot right here (actually, Coughlin is
still standing in the Mill Place studio apartment's parking lot at
this time). I am not bothering him you guys just expect people to
watch you use their own property to board up a place?
Phil Stewart: do you have a receipt for that?

Coughlin: yeah I do. It was submitted into evidence guy. You


guys submitted it into evidence as a bill. (Coughlin then walks
out of the Mill Place parking lot and around Stewart's white dump
truck (which was completely blocking the sidewalk) and out a
few feet into the road on Court St west of River Rock, where the
camera's view reveals Stewart's crew has set a couch and some
other personalty on the sidewalk, where Stewart and John Dow
walk onto towards the front of the property on River Rock St. to
talk with Richard G. Hill, Esq.) are you going to ask Richard
about that? I even ask Richard about the fact they used my own
property to board up the property and charged with thousand
dollars for it this gotta be an easier way to make money was and
ain't that easy to be an attorney as you can see, Phil.
Stewart: you obviously need to start taking your medication.
Coughlin:(Coughlin has retreated back to the Mill Place parking
lot at this point) what did you say? Are you making some sort of
accusation or insult about taking medication? Is that what you are
doing? You know it is funny because a lot of this property
could've been used to feed families in need. Phil are you going to
throw away the carpet and then try to bill before it is that what
you are going to do some pretty sure that that would be fraud
Phil. Sir, I am putting you on notice that carpet belongs to Dr.
Merliss (a couple members of Stewart's crew are now seen
picking up the rolled up bundles of carpet that Coughlin, whom
has now walked around to the front of the property to River Rock
St. walking just off the sidewalk (though a large tan/brown
Silverado style pickup truck parked on the North Side of Court
Street, that Coughlin recalls seeing a large manilla folder in with
the notation, in hand writing, "Sargent Bradshaw" is an obstacle
Coughlin must walk around, especially where Stewart himself is
utilizing the sidewalk, and given John Doe's very recent request
that Coughlin "stay away" from Stewart, it would seem cautious
of Coughlin not to attempt to walk on the same small patch of
sidewalk off Court Street as Stewart and his laborers.) Hey, Phil?
Phil? The carpet, there was also some more of it right around
there... Hopefully you haven't thrown it away already...
Hopefully, you do not try to bill me for it Phil....
(Coughlin is now standing on the sidewalk on the western side of
River Rock, parallel with the northern boundardy line of the
property, when John Doe appears from around the corner off of
Court Street and snaps another flash bulb photograph at
Coughlin).
Coughlin: Sir, this is a public street. This is a public street you do
not on the sidewalks are have you ever heard of a documentary?
You know there's a lot of guys making documentaries these days
about the bad things people do.

(up rolls RPD Officer Hollingsworth on his motorcycle, and RPD


dispatch chatter can be heard describing a "suspect in a larceny".
Officer Hollingsworth has been called to the scene by Richard G.
Hill, Esq. and Phil Stewart. Hill shows up seconds after
Hollingsworth. Now, neither Hill nor Stewart were charged with
"misuse of emergency services like Coughlin was in RCR2012065630. So in this video Stewart talks with officer Hollingsworth
for a few moments until Richard Hill arrives...)
Coughlin: hey Rich how are you doing?
Hill: Great, Zach, thank you buddy.
Coughlin: would you prefer of psychology Mr. Hill?
Hill: I would, Zach.
Coughlin: Mr. Hill, how are you doing? Hey that is a cool
"skulls" shirt, Mr. Hill (Hill is wearing a black Ed Hardy style
bowling shirt with flaming red skulls on it.. Hill begins doing his
Reno PD thing with Officer Hollingsworth, Coughlin stands back
about 12 feet from their communique).
Hill: (to Officer Hollingsworth) can we get him out of here? (and
therein, besides calling 911/RPD dispatch in the first place where
no legitimate reason existed to, Hill proceeds to leverage law
enforcement acting with color of law to prevent opposing counsel
from collectin evidence for a wrongful eviction damages
analysis).
Hollingsworth: first of all of gotta figure out if I have legal
authority to do so.
Hill: Re: court order evicting him from the property, subsequently
we had him arrested for trespass is lost his appeal (which was
totally not true when Hill made that false statement to a police
officer seeking to have Coughlin arrested, on January 12th, 2012,
given that the appeal would not be decided for months), he's
lost.... Now we have been talking to our workers
Hollingsworth: Have you tried to get a protection order?
Hill: no but we do have an order from the court disposition of the
premises (unintelligible...)
Coughlin: what about the sidewalk bridge you on the sidewalk?
Hill: is been over to the transfer station Sargent Bradshaw I just
left from there is Sargent Bradshaw who is been on
(unintelligible)... These over here just generally being a pain in
the ass
Coughlin: freedom of the press, Rich. (Hill starts making some
big gesticulating motions to Officer Hollingsworth like a child
whom is not being given the toy he wanted for Christmas or
Veruca Salt throwing a fit in Charley's Chocolate Factory). They
have important things to do rich they are busy. (Helen Stewart

is there now too)

name last time I recognize you from the the day..
Look: with officer look
Coughlin nice to see you again I think I saw you the other day
when came out on a call with Officer Gannon, for a domestic
disturbance a run East-Sage

Look: Right on Scottsdale
Coughlin: Satan E. 9th St., Park Terrace Town homes... Freedom

Look what you guys have going on today?
Hill: contempt of court Mr. Coughlin!
Coughlin: well, that carpet belongs to your client, Mr. Hill if you
try to throw it away and then build me for it
Hollingsworth: (comes over to talk to Coughlin) can you turn that
off, Sir, for a second stuff over here on over on the sidewalk
(Coughlin was already on the sidewalk, but Hollingworth leads
them further North along the River Rock side walk's western
side). Okay so what's the deal today why are we here?
Coughlin: I don't know, sir.
Hollingsworth did used to live here?
Coughlin: I prefer to just keep my privacy as a private citizen.
But I mean you no disrespect Sir.
Hollingsworth no problem, I can respect that here's the deal you
understand here in the sidewalk no problem you on it student run

and they're probably enough apply for temporary station order

them. (Hill gets into his $100,000 Porsche Carrera where he goes
off the Reno Justice Court and gets a TPO signed by Judge
Schroeder within 40 minutes of the application being stamped in.
Behind Hill's Porsche is Officer Look's patrol car and the patrol
car being utilized by Officer Leedy and his training, tenured
Officer, Officer Del Vecchio. These vehicles are in addition to
the motorcycle ridden by Officer Hollingsworth. Richard Hill's

Coughlin: I'm trying to take care of my business, too.
Hollingsworth: okay is there something we can help you with?
Coughlin: I don't believe so, sir. I called the police recently I told
them somebody threatened my life the the day that in six see fit to
arrest anybody so apparently Richard Hill is a national treasure.
Hollingsworth: Okay, well, I don't know who that is, all I know
is I'm here today and you are here with the camera and you're not
breaking any laws that I can see but they're gonna try to get it to
where you are violating a temporary protection order
Coughlin I understand it threatening abuse of process and
malicious prosecution
Hollingsworth: so it would be helpful if maybe you could find
something else to do this afternoon because I have been listening
on the radio and we've had two or three calls for service for you
already today and would like to be evidence of do some other
work today, no one I mean

Hollingsworth: Hollingsworth
Coughlin thank you, Sir, Goodbye Officer Look, good to see you
again, Sir.(Coughlin then proceeds to walk back towards the mill
place parking lot Western Lane along court street he does not
walk in the street but rather uses the sidewalk which is now
cleared of Stewart's laborers and any of the personalty they are
seeking to take to the dump however the white dump truck belong
to Stewart is still blocking the sidewalk. Coughlin Fox all the
way back to the area in the Mill's Place parking lot immediately
to the west of the fenced, gated backyard to his former home law
office, and can view Officer Hollingsworth pull away on his
motorcycle heading north on River Rock. Footage of contractor

to release. It took until November 22nd, 2011 before Hill turned


over Coughlin's wallet and driver's license to Coughlin. It took
until December 22nd, 2011 before Hill turned over Coughlin's
client's files, causing Coughlin to incur great expense in arranging
for alternatives. Coughlin starts to make his way back towards the
front of the property and decides to walk along the edge of the
parked Tan Brown pickup truck instead of venture near it be
laborers working for Stewart who are now utilizing the sidewalk
on the north side of court street once again. Coughlin notices the
large manila envelope and the dashboard of the track with a large.
Written note indicating Sargent Bradshaw on the outside of of the
folder. Coughlin then crosses the street in a straight continuation
from the northern sidewalk on Court St. to the parking lot on the
east side of River Rock, just as any pedestrian would (except
Contractor Stewart actually just walked out in the middle of the
road when he crossed River Rock earlier, rather than in a straight
continuation of the sidewalks. Coughlin notices Contractor
Stewart milling about on the west sidewalk of River Rock just
north of his former law office. This group includes Stewart, Del
Vecchio, Leedy, and Look, whom are now joined by Sargent
Sifre. Officer Hollingsworth has left to do some real police work
by this time. Sheri Hill is still watching on from her maroon
Lexus SUV in the parking lot).
Coughlin: (talking vaguely in the direction of Contractor Stewart
who is approximately 30 feet away) you might when I try to
make sure you don't throw away that carpet over there because I
will dispute it if you guys try to bill me for it. (Coughlin then
positions himself to get a shot of the interior of the former home
law office where a he sees a very sentimental item to him that he
forgot to grab at the last second during the mad rush to move his
property out to whatever extent possible by the 5 PM deadline
December 23 this item is a 5" x 16" caricature of his former
domestic partner of the preceding four and a half years from a
relationship that ended in late May 2011 and himself done during
the early stages of their relationship. This was amongst
Coughlin's most treasured possessions and was only left atop a
crown molding during the move with the idea that it would be the
last thing Coughlin would grab, and therefore he would be able to
place it in a safe place on his U-Hauls dash board or somewhere
else where it would be safe. However, the chaos incident to
Richard Hill's showing up in demanding everyone be off the
property by exactly 5 PM under the threat of arrest caused
Coughlin to overlooked grabbing this treasured sentimental item.
This caricature is visible in the video)

Coughlin: that is that sentimental picture that I told them about of


Melissa and I. the caricature... And I believe the dolphin
windchime mobile, one of the last things my grandmother gave
me before she died is in there...oh, and look at that there is $150
appliance. (to Contractor Stewart). Sir I season sentimental
heirloom keepsakes in their that I guess you are just going to
throw it away you don't care, the last thing my grandmother gave
me before she died very sentimental thing (at this point
Contractor Stewart turns to the camera an makes a revolting
gesture). Sir when you put a padlock on the back fence? (Hill's
placing a padlock on the back fence only just about the time that
it was Coughlin's right to remove his property resulted in
Coughlin's progress in moving all his personalty being severely
impeded.).
...
(At this point in the video Coughlin returns to the parking lot of
Mill's Place, private property, behind the fenced back yard of his
former home law office. Like a couple of goons approaching,
Officer's Leedy and Officer Look venture into that private
property, the Mill's Place parking lot:
Officer Leedy: Mr. Coughlin could talk to for second?
Coughlin: I mean neither confirming that that's my name, Sir, but
you are the law under asking to speak to somebody so.
(at this point Officer Look approaches Coughlin very rapidly and
immediately grabs Coughlin's wrist, Couglin holding his video
camera, which is, obviously, still filming, as Officer Leedy and
Officer Look immediately jump straight to applying excessive
force to Coughlin's wrists. Officer Look jumps at Coughlin from
Coughlin's left side and Officer Leedy sneeks around behind
Coughlin and grabs Coughlin's camera out of his right hand and
turns it off)
Officer Look: video camera down, put your camera down.
Coughlin:Whoa! Whoa! Why are you touching me! (Officer
Look is captured on video breaking back Coughlin's left wrist and
wrenching Coughlin's left arm behind his back, prior to any sort
of attempt to peaceably approach Coughlin, a license attorney,
whatsoever, but then accidentally turns it back on a second later,
a fact to which he is unaware. Officer Leedy places both of his
hands on Coughlin's right side and right arm and wrist in a
display of excessive use of force.)
Officer Leedy: We don't want your camera....
Coughlin why are you touching me this is not their properties,
Sir? (the camera goes black for a moment)
Coughlin: Owww!. You are breaking my wrist!! Oww! Owww!!
Help!!! Help!!! My wrist hurts, somebody call 911. Owww!!

need to break my wrist like that, Sir. Oww!!!. Oww!!!Why are


you handcuffing me, Sir?
Officer Leedy: You are being placed under arrest.
Coughlin: For what? For what?
Sargent Paul Sifre: They'll explain everything to you in a little bit
(but, actually, Coughlin would not be told what he was charged
with for over an hour and a half, and in the intervening period
while he was handcuffed and placed in the Officer Leedy's patrol
car, with tenured training Officer Del Vecchio (whom had
handcuffed Coughlin, and placed him in the back of his patrol car
on night in July 2011 incident to Del Vecchio drawing his
weapon, or appearing to, on both Coughlin (whom was walking
his bike at the time) and another bicyclist in front of Coughlin's
former home law office at approximately 10 pm at night, all
because Officer Del Vecchio felt the light on Coughlin's bike was
"not up to code").
Sargent Sifre: I am going to shut your camera off so the battery
will not run down.(Officer Del Vecchio can be seen in the video
at this point walking around in his acid wash jeans).
Coughlin: I don't wan't it shut off, Sir. You are obstructing
justice if you shut it off! (Sargent Paul Sifre then shuts off the
video camera whereupon Officer's Look and trainee Officer
Leedy continuing applying the wrongful use of excessive force to
Coughlin's arms and wrists as they pin him face down to the
concrete with a smug, nauseating Californian transplant name
Sargent Paul Sifre (whom incident to another wrongful detention
of Coughlin on March 29th, 2012 told Coughlin he doesn't like
Nevada or Reno, but the job he has pays him so much, and he has
so little chance of finding such an arrangement in any local more
to his liking, that he essentially has a pair of "golden handcuffs"
tying him to Northern Nevada, which he detests, before going on
to tell Coughlin about how he lead his little league team in both
home runs and strike outs, then proceeding to ramble on
unconvincingly about how he was "trying to get you the help you
need", in a tone that was more suggestive of a veiled threat to
Coughlin, the import of which was clear, ie, that Coughlin better
not complain anymore about the RPD's police misconduct, such
as Coughlin did in his written complaints to the RPD on
September 7th, 2011 and January 8th, 2012 wherein Coughlin
complained of the police misconduct by RPD Officers Nick
Duralde and Ron Rosa during the wrongful arrest of Coughlin on
August 20th, 2011in RCR2011-063341 (written complaint
submitted to the RPD on September 7th, 2011 and supplemental
on January 8th, 2012, at which time a written complaint against

CR 26405. Sargent Sifre would again order Coughlin arrested
less than 48 hours later in RCR2012-065630 for "misue of
emergency communications services". In between these two
arrests RPD Officer Duralde would get a chance to retaliate
against Coughlin incident to pulling Coughlin over in his car in
the early morning hours of January 13th, 2012, after Coughlin
bailed himself out of jail and use a combination of a cab ride and
walking to get to his car in 20 degree whether on a very windy
night. Coughlin instantly recognized Sifreon January 14th, 2012
from seeing him on January 12th, 2012 as on both days fact that
Sifre was wearing a short sleeves uniform shirt emphasizing his
tribal armband tatoos, and body builder biceps.

wrongful arrests by local law enforcemtn of Coughlin

While it may be expendient for some in local law


enforcement to discredit Coughlin or have him "committed", it
does not make it legal, and it does not vitiate the import of law
enforcement misconduct in all of the wrongful arrests of
Coughlin since August 19th, 2011.

It is c
Coughlin was just informed by his mother that this same Officer Travis Warren, along with

17
18

another RPD Officer and "two social worker types" met with Coughlin's mother, Very Special Arts of

19

Nevada (VSAN) Program Director Mary Barker, and Coughlin's father, Dr. Timothy D. Coughlin,

20

MD, of Reno Family Physicians at Dr. Coughlin's medical office in an purported attempt to have

21

Coughlin "committed" sometime in approximately February 2012. Such a meeting is conveniently

22

and suspiciously close in time to the video transcribed above wherein Sargent Lopez essentially

23
24

admits that she and Officer Carter lacked probable cause for a criminal trespass arrest of Coughlin

25

(and, upon information and belief, the RPD was served a subpoena by Coughlin requiring Carter and

26

Lopez's presence at Trial, though neither managed to show up, despite the City Attorney's having

27

previously subpoenaed at least one of them for that purpose as well...It seems to City Attorney's

3

if you have any problem with that" in response to Coughlin mentioning to Officer Carter that the
police did need to have probable cause to make such an arrest. Further troubling is the fact that RPD
Sargent Sifre had Coughlin arrested just over 24 hours after Sargent Lopez put her foot in her mouth

her, bringing 5 other RPD Officers with him on January 14h, 2012 to respond to a 911 call by

Coughlin reporting the disappearance of his Pekingese dog, Jackson Pawluck, and the menacing

statements connected thereto by the house mates against whom Coughlin would eventually be
awarded two different TPO's.
Just about 12 hours prior to Sargent Lopez and Officer Warren and Officer Avila arriving at

13

Coughlin's E. 9th St. rental in response to a call by Coughlin reporting a domestic dispute (two of

14

Coughlin's tires had been slashed and his license plate had turned up missing), just after Coughlin

15

spent his last $160 bailing himself out of jail incident to the January 12th, 2012 "jaywalking" arrest

16

ordered by RPD Sargent Paul Sifre, Coughlin was pulled over while driving home his vehicle after

17
18

making his way to it from the Washoe County Detention Center (which had seen fit to release

19

Coughlin exactly a couple minutes after the last RTC bus had left for the night (on a night where the

20

temperature was a balmy 25 degrees, with a considerable wind chill on top of that) by the same RPD

21

Officer Nick Duralde (whose wife is an emergency communications dispatcher, Jessica Duralde,

22

which complicates matters considering that the petty larceny of an iPhone case, RCR2011-063341

23
24

stemming from Duralde's wrongful August 20th, 2011 arrest of Coughlin has involved an inquiry

25

wherein Duralde's basis for alleging he was justified in conducting a Terry Stop "weapons check pat

26

down" and or a search incident to arrest was largely premised upon some purported "information he

27

received from dispatch" of a "disturbance or possible fight", despite the fact that none of the

they do mention a "disturbance" and "possible larceny of a cell phone" and the "RP (reporting party)

screaming at the accused". DDA Young may need to answer for just where this whole notion of
Duralde being dispatched mention of a "possible fight" comes from exactly, other than the
prosecutors wish list of things he wishes there was documentation of to support his hopes of proving

Coughlin's Fourth Amendment rights were not violated by an Officer eager to show up the lawyer in

front of some teen-agers and early twenty-somethings. To be fair, those youths did a fair amount of

9

12

lying that night in their fraudulent attempts to cover up the conduct of Cory Goble, which may be
tantamount to having abandoned (and if Goble did not abandon it, then anyone whom claimed it in
response to the "man holding a six-pack" offering it up and threatening to "throw it in the river if

13

someone doesn't claim it right away", arguably "saved" the iPhone from being destroyed in

14

connection with Goble's alleged negligence or abandonment of it, and thereby, the iPhone was no

longer Goble's, if it was, indeed, his to begin with (which is unclear given Goble's contradictory

16

statements in that regard where he alleges that he himself bought it three years previously, according

17

to Duralde in his Supplemental Declaration incident to his arrest report, in comparison to Goble's

19

testimony on the August 29th, 2012 Trial date in RCR2011-063341, wherein Goble alleges his

brother bought it for him three years previously, not that WCPD Jim Leslie would undertake any

being released from 7 days in WCDC, where this lifelong resident of Reno, an attorney, whose entire
immediate family lives here, who had no criminal record previous convictions aside from a January

2003 "dry" reckless driving conviction, was denied an OR release by a retaliatory WCDC staff for 7

days, and where Coughlin's bail was impermissibly inflated by Duralde's fraudulent overcharging as

felony grand larceny for the purported theft of an item that was three years old and on worth "between
$250 and $300" when it was bought new three years previously. The RMC impermissibly violated

13

during the pendency of the Order for Competency Evaluation of Coughlin in RCR2011-063341. So,

14

Officer Duralde and five other RPD Officers just happened to be hanging around Coughlin's car when

15

he finally made his way to it upon his release from jail in the early morning hours of January 13th,

16

2012. Coughlin had previously filed a written complaint against RPD Officer Duralde and Officer

17
18

Ron Rosa on September 7th, 2011 and January 8th, 2012, making such a large show of force incident

19

to that pull over (for a license plate that just so happened to all the sudden turn up missing", and the

20

main suspects would be the RPD, or Coughlin's then house mates, or, finally, some stranger). A

21

video of the wrongful arrest was taken by Coughlin, and here is the transcript (of the video Coughlin

Duralde: The iPhone.

Coughlin: Don't I have a right not to answer an Officer when he inquires as to what is in my
pockets? Unless this is a Terry Stop, but I don't think this is a reasonable cause to do a pat
down...
Duralde: It is a reasonable cause to do one.
Coughlin: Perhaps, you might be right.
(54 second mark)
Templeton: And if he calls it and it lights up in his pocket, will that prove it?
Duralde: Set your bike down on the ground, and move over there for a pat down.

Coughlin: This dog likes to run away, Officer, can I tie it to something?

Duralde (startled): Okay! (strange slipping/click sound emitted on video of arrest at this point)
Coughlin: You just touched my junk! Officer, I don't appreciate you touching my penis. I am a
lawyer, and you haven't even asked me a question yet and you are handcuffing me. I don't see how
this is a Terry Stop. I wish you would tell me why you are proceeding like this.

Coughlin: I am accusing them of assaulting me.
Duralde: Okay, and I am saying that is unfounded how are you injured.
Coughlin: Uh, assault isn't injury, its apprehension of imminent bodily harm.
Duralde: Okay, so what did they do?
Coughlin: They grabbed me, they pushed me, they reached into my pocket, and they pulled my
dog from me,
Duralde: If they touched you its not assault.
Coughlin: ...As a gang of skaters, twenty of them backed me up into oncoming traffic.

Coughlin: Zachary Coughlin, Nevada Bar number 9473.

Coughlin: Well, maybe it bares towards...okay, you seem to not respect or be willing to hear
anything an attorney says, yet a group of skaters you believe wholeheartedly.

Coughlin: I'm not an...well, let me think about that....Do I have the phone? Do I have a right not

Coughlin: So, I think its under the Hiibel case where the guy refused to give the police officer his
name?
Rosa: Its called 171.123, Terry Stop. You can provide your name or be arrested for obstruction.
Coughlin: You know what I'm talking about.
RPD Officer Rosa: Yeah, I know what your are talking about.
Coughlin: Search incident to arrest.
RPD Officer Rosa: That's not what your being...you are being detained, dude.
Duralde: You are not under arrest.
Coughlin: Okay.

RPD Officer Rosa: Provide your name or go to jail for obstruction, and we will call the
Nevada Bar and let them know how you cooperated with our investigation, how is that
runnin' for ya? We are tired, and we are busy tonight, we have got better things to do tonight
than be out here and debate the law with you. Give the man your name and let him do his job. Is
there anything wrong with that?
Coughlin: Well, can I ask you a question?
RPD Officer Rosa: No! You can't, just provide your name and information or go to jail. Those
are your options, we are done discussing the law.

RPD OFFICER SCHAUR: how are you doing over here?
Coughlin: not so good.
Schaur: What's wrong.
Coughlin: My dog is gone.
Schaur: What kind of dog do you have?
Coughlin: Pekingese.
Schaur: Peningese? I didn't see a Pekingese when we were comin' in here...do you have a tracker on
it or somethin' on it, one of those little scanners?
Coughlin: Like a microchip? You have six cops here? Why? I recognize this guy over here
(refercing RPD Sargent Paul Sifre, whom admits to having ordered Coughlin be subjected to a
custodial arrest for "jaywalkign" which obstructed justice incident to Coughlin collecting evidence for
a wrongful eviction lawsuit stemming from RJC Rev2011-001708.) You arrested me for jaywalking
the other day.
RPD Sargent Paul Sifre: No, I didn't arrest you for jaywalking but I was on the scene.
Coughlin: what was your name?
Sargent Sifre: Here's the deal...what do you need today?
Coughlin: My dog is gone, threatening statements and smirks were made by the two women or girls
in here and the man...

Sifre: You are not injured or anything?
Coughlin: No, sir.
Sifre: are these your roomates?
Coughlin: she wasn't she moved in afterwards, it's my understanding she is supposed to be living with
her mother. Can I go in there an here what they are saying (motioning to the RPD interviewing Laura
Foreshee and Stephanie Allaback).
Sifre: No, you have to stay here, we have to figure out if you even have a domestic relationship.

Coughlin: Who did arrest me? Officer Leedy, the trainee, or Officer Del Vecchio, the observer?
Sifre: Officer Leedy, the trainee,.
Coughlin: So Leedy was the trainee but he was making the arrest?
Sifre, Yeah, but he was still sworn personnel. How long have you been livin' here, man?
Coughlin: why wouldnt' you tell me what the arrest was for?
Sifre: Yeah, they told you.
Coughlin: What was it?
Sifre: Pedestrian in a roadway.
Coughlin: is that normally necessitate a custodial arrest?
Sifre: It can be.
Coughlin: Why did it need to be a custodial arrest, Sir?
Sifre: That one, because I said it was?
Coughlin: Why did you make that choice?
Sifre: Because we had several incidents involving you yesterday, or, uh, Thursday.
Coughlin: And just because they involved me, it necessitated a custodial arrest?
Sifre: Yeah, you didn't qualify for a citation?
Coughlin: Why was that?
Sargent Sifre: I just told you, we had several incidents involving you...
Coughlin: But, what if I was the victim in each incident?
RPD Sargent Sifre: then you shouldn't keep putting yourself in that situation.
Coughlin: Oh, okay. (Coughlin previously worked as a domestic violence attorney/advocate at
Washoe Legal Services and is well familar with the "blaming the victim" methodology employed here

RJC 2012-078432 Zachary Barker Coughlin vs Superior Mini (in this matter, on approximately
September 22nd, 2012, besides RPD Officer Weaver calling up Coughlin's mother an attempt to
coerce her into assisting him and the RPD In violating Soldal v. Cook County, the RPD and Officer
Weaver and Sargent Oliver Miller also attempted to induce Superior's Matt Grant to file another
fraudulent "distrubing the peace" charge against Coughlin shortly after Weaver swaggeringly, and in
a smug manner, threatened to fraudulently arrest Coughlin again for another "failure to secure a load"
citation and conduct another impermissible "search incident to arrest" or "inventorying" of Coughlin's
vehicle. RPD Sargent Dye and Officer Weaver had also violated criminal laws in attempting to
dissuade Couglin from testifying at to their misconduct in RMC 12 CR 12420 on September 5th,
2012 (SArgent Dye tracked Coughlin down while he was deliverying materials incident to his part
time job, shortly after midnight on September 5th, 2012 to attempt to intimidate Coughlin in a
Scolari's desolate parking lot, and Officer Weaver made menacing gesticulations to Coughlin in court
while they waited for the 12 CR 12420 case to be called, wherein Reno City Attorney committed
professional misconduct in violating RPC 3.8 in amending the criminal complaint in that matter to
charge Coughlin with trespassing, and RMC "defenders" Keith Loomis, Esq. and Henry Sotelo both
violated NRS 178.405 and NRS 5.010 at various times by failing to abide by the stay required therein
and in obtaining orders allowing their withdrawal (of course, the kept their monthly, princely $7K
"side gig" payment from the RMC, which for all purposes seems to be made in exchange for their
selling their criminal indigent client's down the river and or subjecting them to impromptu cross
examination demanding answers to which they are not entitled, especially in Loomis's case, and
otherwise withholding from criminal indigent defendant's the few inviolable rights they have,
including, the right to counsel under the Sixth Amendment, the right to subpoena or call witnesses,
and the decision on whether or not to testify.
Storage. Loomis also committed fraud in assisting in having Coughlin incarcerated wrongfully for
nearly 20 days in July 2012, including his failure to forward to the RMC the proof of insurance
Coughlin provided Loomis (which had already been provided to charlatan police officer's Weaver and
Dye anyways), and in coercing wrongfully from Coughlin some purported consent to view Coughlin's
HIPAA protected medical records (something WCDC social worker Jan Guidetti also sought to do
on behalf of RMC Judge Nash Holmes)
Coughlin also took a video of the January 12th, 2012 "jaywalking" arrest in RMC 12 CR

20
21

00696, and Coughlin also took a video of at least part of the January 14th, 2012 arrest for "misuse of

22

emergency services" (a gross misdemeanor) in RCR2012-065630. Both arrests were ordered by

23

Sargent Sifre, as admitted by Sifre himself in the video Coughlin took of at least part of the January

24

14t, 2012 arrest. And, curiously, the RPD, ECOMM, and DDA YOung, despite having been loaded

wherein Milan Krebs asserts Coughlin said something all along the lines of "don't mess with my locks

rental at Northwind's on that July 3rd, 2012 morning to find "someone" had placed some sort of glue

13

in the key slot of the lock on his rental's door), though Krebs's statements in his application for an

14

order of protection compared to those he makes in his witness statement incident to the July 3 arrest

of Coughlin contains some glaring inconsistencies particularly with respect to the protection order

going into some alleged propensity of Coughlin to carry around large butcher knives where is the

witness statement in connection with the July 3 disturbing the peace arrest fails to mention such a
