2004 VOTE
Devaney carries insider baggage
in city attorney fight
San Diego Union Tribune
By Greg Moran
October 8, 2004
In 1992, after seven years of working
her way through the San Diego City
Attorney's Office, Leslie Devaney
decided it was time for a change.
To the shock of some of her
colleagues, she took a job as a senior
litigator for insurance giant American
Insurance Group.
Four years later, following a lunch with the
new city attorney, Casey Gwinn, Devaney
concluded it was time for a change.
She returned to the office she had left, this
time to be Gwinn's top assistant. Now, eight
years after that lunch, Devaney is attempting
one more change: moving up from No. 2 in
the office to the top slot...
But in a year when City Hall has been rocked
by revelations about its debt-ridden pension
fund and federal investigations into financial
disclosure practices, Devaney is faced with
an unusual challenge...
But at the same time, she has to fend off
attacks from her opponent, Mike Aguirre, a
securities lawyer in private practice, that she
is part of the City Hall culture that is
responsible for the city's current predicament.
"Devaney's biggest problem is she is too
associated with the Gwinn faction," said Carl
Luna, a political science professor at Mesa
College. "With all this bad news coming
down, it makes everyone in City Hall look
bad."
Education: Bachelor's degree in political
science from the University of California San
Diego; law degree from the University of San
Diego.
Experience: Executive assistant city attorney
(on unpaid leave for campaign); former
deputy city attorney; senior litigator for
American Insurance Group.
Personal: Married to Frank Devaney; two
daughters, Kaitlin, 16, and Brenna, 14...
She is endorsed by Gwinn and a list of other
organizations – such as the Lincoln Club, a
Republican business group, and the
association representing state deputy
attorneys general. Devaney has raised
$314,881 in cash for her campaign, including
a personal loan of $31,000.
Devaney, whose husband, Frank, is also a
lawyer in the City Attorney's Office [Frank
Devaney was appointed to the San Diego
Superior Court soon after this article was
published], said she left the office in 1992 in
large part because she felt she was being
shut out of the bigger, more interesting
cases. She had begun working there in 1985,
concentrating on cases of alleged police
excessive force and dangerous road
conditions...
Recruited by AIG to establish a corporate
office here, she jumped at the chance. "It
was a whole new world," she said. "There
is a whole other mentality in private
practice – the work ethic, other things. You
always have to be constantly learning."
But after four years, she got a call from Gwinn
asking her to lunch. He was about to
succeed John Witt as city attorney and
wanted to discuss ideas he had for the office,
she said.
At the end of the lunch, Gwinn offered her
the job as second in command. "I thought it
would be a great challenge," she said of her
decision to return. "And as the second in
charge, I could help shape it into what I
thought the office could become."
...Devaney bristles at Aguirre's efforts to hold
her responsible for a series of ills – from the
pension debacle to the Chargers' ticket
guarantee and the $100 million verdict
against the city in the Roque de la Fuente II
case. The huge verdict came in a suit where
de la Fuente said the actions of city officials
devalued an Otay Mesa business park he
developed. She tells audiences she expects
Aguirre to next blame her for global warming.
But the task of touting her experience in the
office while trying to distance herself from
the office's controversial actions is tricky.
"She is trying hard to present herself as a
capable administrator," Luna said. "The
problem is, that does not gibe with things not
going very well lately."...
If she is elected, her husband would leave
the City Attorney's Office to avoid potential
conflicts of interest, Devaney said. She and
her husband have two teenage daughters...

Former Municipal Attorney Signs Up With Stutz Artiano
The following article was found on the Stutz law firm website, but (shame on Stutz!) it did not
include a link to the original article. I could not find this article on the Internet, but I think that the
"Daily Journal" to which Stutz refers is the LA Daily Journal, San Diego Bureau
220 W Broadway, Apt W,
San Diego, CA 92101
Former Municipal Attorney Signs Up With Stutz Artiano
March 01, 2005
Daily Journal Reports....
After narrowly losing the November election for San Diego city attorney, Leslie Devaney just couldn't shake her
interest in municipal law.
"I had made all these contacts with a number of agencies in my campaign for city attorney, "says Devaney, who
was the executive assistant city attorney from 1995 until just this fall." I could probably go back into just litigating,
but it seemed like the experience I got from the campaign enhanced [my appeal]."
San Diego-based government relations specialty firm Stutz Artiano Shinoff & Holtz agreed; Devaney starts as a
partner at that firm's downtown San Diego office March 1,where she'll head the firm's government relations and
municipal law practice group.
Devaney says she chose 26-attorney Stutz Artiano after putting out her credentials out to a variety of firms. Her
plan was always to leave the city for a private firm if she didn't win the election, she says.
And after helping smooth the transition for new San Diego Attorney Mike Aguirre, that's excatly what she did,
despite the opportunity to keep the same job under Aguirre.
At the firm, Devaney will represent government entities and advise private clients on how to interact with
government agencies.
It's a big change from her last job, where she was second in command under former City Attorney Casey Gwinn,
advising the mayor, City Council and departments and taking over for Gwinn when he was away from the office.
Managing partner Ray Artiano of Stutz Artiano says Devaney's extensive experience with the city made her
extremely attractive to his firm, a business firm that specializes in representing public agencies and school
districts.
"She's a perfect match for us,and...I'm sure she's going to be a great asset for the firm, "Artiano says. "Her years
with the city attorney's office, where she was involved with litgation and a host of other matters, gives her the
depth of experience working with municipalities that we were looking for."
In addition to it's San Diego office, Stutz Artiano has offices in Santa Ana, Temecula, Los Angeles and Las
Vegas.
Maria Velasquez, a spokeswoman for the city attorney's office, says members of the office decline to comment
on Devaney's departure.
Gwinn, Devaney's former boss, says he has "nothing but great things to say about Leslie."
"Leslie is going to succeed wherever she goes," says Gwinn, now director of restitution enforcement and victim
services for the San Diego County district attorney's office. "She's always been great at building relationships
with people,...I think her eight years of experience in the public sector are only going to make her better in private
law practice."
Devaney had some down time between jobs; she officially left the city the first week of February. She had
put that time to use, drumming up clients for her new practice who expressed interest in retaining her as a
private attorney.
[Maura Larkins' comment June 2009: Devaney didn't waste any time between leaving office and drumming
up business. Leslie Devaney is now and has been for years a registered lobbyist in San Diego.]
Devaney characterizes these potential clients as companies that do business with public entities, but she
declines to name them specifically.
She had also been able to take some time to devote to her family; her husband, Frank Devaney, was appointed
a San Diego Superior Court Judge on Jan.21.
He previously headed the trial unit of the civil section of the San Diego city attorney's office, a position Devaney
says her husband was planning to leave after the election regardless of its outcome.
[Maura Larkins' comment: The city attorney's office was quite a family affair for the Devaneys, wasn't it?]
"He gave two weeks' notice on Tuesday without knowing what he would do from there," she says. "Two weeks
later, on a Thursday, [he] got the call...[and] got sworn in the Wednesday following...
[Maura Larkins comment: Perhaps Bonnie Dumanis had something to do with it. See the "Secret world of
judicial appointments".]

Are we as Christian women helping God make history?
[Maura Larkins' response to Mindy Fletcher:
I'm sure God very much appreciates your offer of help.
For example, I suspect God has big plans for this newly-discovered black hole in a nearby galaxy. It has 6,400,000,000 times the weight of the sun. Obviously, this is an important project, and we wouldn't want it to go wrong.
But wait a minute. When you say "God," do you really mean Arnold Schwartzenegger?
I was also wondering, when you helped with the chad count in Florida in 2004, were you helping God make history?
As opposed to the voters of America?
A wise man once said, "Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's." That might be a good topic for PWF's bible study.]

Thursday, March 30, 2006 Breakfast - 7:30 - 9:00 AM
March is Women's History Month and a great opportunity to look at the many accomplishments of women. What kind of history are women making? Are we as Christian women helping God make history?
Mindy Tucker Fletcher is a former member of the PWF Board of Directors. Now, as Deputy Chief of Staff for External Affairs, Mindy serves Governor Schwarzenegger as his liaison to a variety of constituencies, coalitions and organizations including employers and industry groups, labor unions, education and transportation coalitions, tribal and local governments and law enforcement and public safety groups. She also serves as the Governor’s liaison to the California Republican Party as a member of its Board of Directors...
Mindy has built a career in politics and public service in Texas, Washington, D.C. and California. After graduating from Southern Methodist University in Dallas, Texas, Mindy spent six years in Washington, D.C. where she served as Communications Director for Congressman Sam Johnson and as the Deputy Communications Director at the National Republican Congressional Committee. Mindy joined the team of then Governor George W. Bush as the spokesperson for this 1998 gubernatorial re- election campaign in her home state of Texas.
In 1999, she became Press Secretary for the Bush- Cheney 2000 effort, where she worked closely with national and regional media, managed the day-to- day operations of the communications division and appeared regularly on national television and radio programs. During the Florida Recount she served as the senior spokesperson for the recount effort. After President Bush took office in 2001, she became the first woman appointed Director of Public Affairs at the United States Department of Justice. Mindy helped the department through a year that included the Robert Hanssen espionage case, the Timothy McVeigh execution, the Microsoft settlement and the terrorist attacks of September 11.
In January of 2002, she became the Party’s chief spokesperson as Director of Communications for the Republican National Committee before she moved to San Diego in 2003. During 2004 she was active in the President’s re-election campaign serving as a National Co-Chair for the W Stands for Women effort and making regular television appearances. Mindy returned to Florida for the final months of the campaign where she assisted all of the target states in dealing with the numerous legal and ballots issues...
Mindy resides in San Diego with her husband Nathan, a Marine Corps reservist, and although her schedule doesn’t allow much free time, she operates on the principle that a good baseball game can always fit into your schedule.
Don't miss this opportunity to welcome Mindy back to PWF as we celebrate Women's History Month together. Confirm your reservation early, but at least by Monday, March 27, with an e-mail to RSVP@pwfsd.org. See you there!

Promote La Jolla gets
back on track
Feb 18, 2009
By Terry Rodgers
- La Jolla Light
Directors of the local Business
Improvement District, also known as
Promote La Jolla, managed to put
aside their differences last week
and focus on the
mundane-but-crucial task of helping
the Village commercial district stay
afloat during the recession.
Meeting Feb. 11 at the La Valencia
Hotel, the reconstituted board of
directors for Promote La Jolla held
a wide-ranging discussion on ways
to foster tourism as well as
patronage by local residents...
Last month, the board, which has
five newly elected members, was
unable to complete its annual
goal-setting session because of
dissension over a lawsuit Hotel
operator Bob Collins and bookstore
owner Nancy Warwick had filed
against the organization over the
2007 board election.
At this month's meeting, newly
installed board president Rick
Wildman, a local attorney,
announced that a final settlement
ending the lawsuit had been filed in
Superior Court.
'It's over'
"It's over," Wildman said. "There's
no need for any more closed
meetings" to discuss the litigation.
The termination of the lawsuit
seemed to end the tension
between board members. Also
noticeably absent from the
meeting was attorney Leslie
Devaney, who was hired by
former president Deborah
Marengo to coach the board on
how to comply with the Brown
Act, the state's open meetings
law for public agencies.
"Everyone is working together
now and it's fun," Wildman said
in an interview after the
meeting...

2004 Aguirre
Voice of San Diego
August 24, 2007
...When Aguirre was running for his current
post against former Assistant City Attorney
Leslie Devaney, Aguirre blasted her for
setting up a campaign fundraiser with Mike
Conger, an attorney who was suing the city
for underfunding the pension system.
Conger, of course, went on to collect
attorney fees after it was settled. Aguirre
was incensed: How could Devaney collect
money from someone so obviously
interested in an outcome from the City
Attorney's Office.
The U-T's Ray Huard wrote up a story:
Devaney said she would appoint a deputy
city attorney to oversee contracts with
outside lawyers rather than handling them
herself to avoid conflicts should campaign
contributors, such as Conger, have
business with the city.
Devaney's opponents questioned her
letting Conger host the fund- raiser.
"We have a billion-dollar deficit in the
pension plan," Aguirre said. "This is going
to be one of the most hotly contested legal
issues, and the attorney on the other side
is raising money for the attorney who's
supposed to be protecting the city."
I called Conger today to confirm. He said
that, yes, he had scheduled a fundraiser for
Devaney. He didn't know her well but knew
her husband, former Deputy City Attorney
Frank Devaney. He said they canceled the
fund raiser after the U-T story ran...

*The law firm of Stutz, Artiano, Shinoff & Holtz, to which the SDCOE JPA steers the lion's
share of its cases, is closely tied to right-wing Republicans such as Lesley Devaney.
Devaney joined the Stutz law firm after losing to Michael Aguirre in the race for San
Diego City Attorney. Devaney has recently admitted that if she had been elected, she
would HAVE HELPED city officials and employees, not the public, regarding the secret
2002 pension underfunding deal. I think the city attorney should, in the public interest,
demand explanations from officials.
Another response to "The Collateral Damage of
Aguirre's Furies"
Thank you Ms. Devaney for your opinion on Mr.
Aguirre's first year of being in office. Now, if you don't
mind, I'll ignore that opinion. You see, it was your
previous boss Casey Gwinn, who went "ostrich" when
the excesses of City Council went unimpeded and
unchecked leading to our infamous "Enron by the Sea"
name tag. Weren't you second in command, at the city
attorney's office, when all of this public profiteering
was in full swing?
San Diego needs a populist, activist city attorney. I
applaud Mr. Aguirre and Don McGrath for "jumping into
the fray." Does the bungling of the De La Fuente
judgments ring any legal jingle bells? Would Councilman
Madaffer have been able to orchestrate retroactive
pension benefits for past council members under Mike
Aguirre's tenure? The answers to these concerns are
publicly evident. Mr. Aguirre and his team of transparent
oriented city attorneys are representing an under
represented constituency.
Ms. Devaney, that constituency would be taxpaying
citizens of San Diego. From taking on the largess of
SDCERS to the special interest take over of the Torrey
Pines Golf Complex, Mr. Aguirre is on the right track.
Had Mr. Gwinn (with you at his side) not been asleep
during his watch, San Diego would probably be in a
better financial position. Please ponder that if you need
to spend time ruefully worrying about the city's current
state of affairs.
DALE PETERSON, SAN DIEGO

What crucial fact does Leslie Devaney leave out of her
essay?
DEVANEY WAS THE NUMBER 2 OFFICIAL IN THE OFFICE
OF CITY ATTORNEY until Mike Aguirre took office.
[Devaney boasts about this connection in her 2004
campaign for city attorney:
Key Endorsements
* San Diego City Attorney Casey Gwinn
* Former San Diego Assistant Chief of Police Keith
Enerson
* California Court of Appeal Justice Howard B. Weiner.,
Retired]
Perhaps this one bit of information explains why Devaney
is outraged at Aguirre's efforts to expose the facts about
actions by public officials!
2008
Leslie Devaney is One of San Diego's 20 Most Influential Women
according to bizSanDiego
From the Stutz law firm website:
"Named as one of San Diego's 20 most influential businesswomen, Leslie Devaney was
recently profiled in bizSanDiego magazine's March 2008 publication. The women, described
as using their skills and passion to make a mark in their industries, are trailblazing paths for
other women and giving back to society..."
Maura's note:
I don't think I'm influential at all, but Leslie Devaney thinks I am.
She's suing me for defamation for what I've written on this website. I sure don't know how
she's going to prove that I interfered with her profits. No TV station or newspaper in San
Diego will cover my story, even though my school, Castle Park Elementary in Chula Vista,
continues its spectacular descent into chaos.
I believe that the school (which I attended as a child) has become so dysfunctional that it
should be removed from the control of Chula Vista Elementary School District and the state
should take it over.
P.S. During my deposition on June16, 2008 by Stutz lawyer Ljubisa (Luubisha) Kostic, I
was asked in particular about my Leslie Devaney column (right). I got the impression that
one of the 20 most influential women in San Diego is angry at this unemployed
schoolteacher.
The San Diego Union Tribune and Chula Vista Star-News might leave me out of their
reporting on Castle Park Elementary, but it's gratifying to know that Leslie Devaney thinks
I'm important.
Stutz Lawyer Leslie Devaney
"This is not a private corporation. We're not organized lawbreakers. We're an open public agency that needs to hold its meetings
open to the public."
...Aguirre's most explosive action last week was his beginning an independent investigation into allegations that city employees lied
and withheld information in disclosures related to its pension deficit.
Attorney Patrick Shea, a friend of Aguirre's and one of four unpaid advisers assessing staff changes in the City Attorney's Office,
called the step essential. "There is going to be an unavoidable irritation" between Aguirre and city officials "who don't want that
kind of disclosure," Shea said. "Mike has no choice but to do what he's doing," he said. "Mike didn't create this situation. The
reality is that the financial markets do not believe the materials . . . published by the city of San Diego."
...Frank Devaney, head of the San Diego City Attorney civil division's trial unit and Leslie Devaney's husband, will leave in March
2005.
Mike Aguirre, San Diego's new city attorney, is fighting City Hall from within it. During his first week in office, Aguirre criticized
the city's leadership, revived a dormant public integrity unit with prosecution powers and began an investigation into
allegations of accounting fraud by city officials. "We will work to restore government integrity," Aguirre said at his swearing-in
ceremony Monday. "The City Attorney's Office will not remain on the sidelines and watch San Diego slide deeper into the financial
abyss."...
Aguirre said his top priority is erasing the stain of a city fiscal crisis marked by a billion-dollar pension deficit, two overdue annual
audits and a borrowing ability so crippled that new water and wastewater projects are on hold. The city's finances are being
investigated by the FBI, the U.S. Attorney's Office and the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Aguirre said solving the crisis will require disclosing its extent, depths and breaking a chain of closed-door City Council meetings
about it. "It just invites disrespect and concern when we're meeting in closed session talking about criminal investigations of city
officials," he said.

The Collateral Damage of Aguirre's Furies
By LESLIE DEVANEY
Voice of San Diego
December 12, 2005
Well, it's been a long year at City Hall. City Attorney Mike Aguirre has certainly
shaken up city government and redefined the role of the city attorney. His actions
remind me of the quote from Shakespeare's "Macbeth": "Full of sound
and fury, signifying nothing."
Despite the numerous public discussions, debates and frequently
embarrassing displays about who is right on the
issue of the proper role of the city attorney, the fact
remains that Aguirre has redefined the city attorney position in a way not
previously seen in San Diego or anywhere else in the state.
Let's look closer at what has occurred in the Office of the City Attorney since
Aguirre was elected. Within one year, he has either dismissed or driven out more
than 50 staff members from his office, including dozens of very experienced
attorneys. The most common phrases I hear from those who remain are, "I'm
trying to get out," "I'm looking," or "I'm keeping my head low and out of his way."
Workers, whether they are in public or private practice, just can't work efficiently
when their attention is focused on looking for another job or avoiding their boss.
Aguirre has engaged in unethical legal practices
that conflict with his role as city attorney and the role of his office.
Rather than represent and advise the mayor, city
council and city departments, he has constantly
accused them of wrongdoing, investigated them,
called them names and generally butted heads with them wherever and whenever
possible.
He has also issued legal opinions contrary to the city's already-pled litigation
defenses being pursued by his own attorneys in the sewage fee case and in the
Mount Soledad cross controversy, and has recently done a similar disservice to
the city with his condo-conversion opinion. That's not what I would call
"representing the client."
It's now been a year since Aguirre took office, yet I can't recall any completed
projects or new programs initiated by him that have made San Diego a better city.
Recommendations for improvement, if ever they are made, are held in abeyance
until reports or investigations are complete. I've lost count of the number of his
investigations -- nevermind his suggestions of what should be investigated like
the alleged fraud that he said last year may have unfairly kept the Cal Berkeley
football team out of a BCS bowl game.
Oh, and what happened to the investigations about the San Diego Food Bank,
sewage fees, gasoline price gouging, the NTC contract, under-reporting of crime
statistics, counting votes on election day, and the Torrey Pines golf tee times?
Aguirre is looking a lot like Don Quixote fighting windmills with these incessant,
never-completed investigations.
Yet, you can add me to the majority of San Diegans who actually believe that at
least someone stepped forward to lead the city while there was a power vacuum
at City Hall.
However, there has been little serious discussion
about what the cost to the city has been, and will
be, in money, morals, reputation and values when
that leadership comes from bullying,
threatening, name-calling and untrustworthy,
unethical behavior. Do we want our elected
officials to behave in a way that we wouldn't
tolerate in our own children?
On whatever side you happen to fall (assuming there are only two) about whether
or not the city attorney should be setting policy for the city, you should recognize
that, at some point, a train wreck is bound to happen
when our elected policy makers cannot or will not
ask their attorney for advice.
If they aren't talking to their attorney -- and trust me, they are not -- then they either
get no advice, or they seek and get advice from persons
who are not accountable to the electorate.
So, under the guise or mantra of "open and transparent government," the very
people in the system who need to change the way they operate are now seeking
advice from unidentified people not accountable to you and me. Why? Because
their attorney constantly threatens them with investigation, prosecution or lawsuits
at every turn.
It may be that the only people who will feel brave or comfortable enough to step
forward in the future to serve on the city council, in city government, on boards and
commissions, or in the city attorney's office itself, are those people to whom
Aguirre has granted immunity from one of his investigations.
My advice to Mike is this: Before you launch another investigation and hold another
press conference, do what ethical attorneys do -- confer
with your client. Exhibit some leadership by concluding your reports.
Make recommendations for improvement. Be respectful of those who are
mentioned in your written documents. Stop constantly hinting at
culpability. Use only proven facts. Stop posturing.
Recognize that the only way you will be able to effect positive change in the city is if
city officials and employees trust your motives and the way you approach issues.
Only then will they willingly consult you. People will never consult
with you if they believe they will become a source
or subject for your next day's press release or
newspaper headline. People simply do not want to find their names
in the newspaper or in one of your so-called investigations.
Develop some positive ideas or programs that will improve neighborhoods,
provide better access to government and cut red tape in the city bureaucracy,
rather than constantly seek publicity by press releases and press conferences.
Maybe, just maybe, you could go down in San Diego's history as someone who
made a positive change rather than someone who launched a thousand
incomplete investigations and really "shook things up at City Hall."
The collateral damage that will result if Aguirre
continues to operate as he has over the last year
will be devastating to the city in the long run
unless he changes course.
While his actions now might "feel good" and be
appealing to the general public, they have
consequences that will indeed be painful in the
years to come.
I hope I'm wrong.
Leslie E. Devaney is a partner at the law firm of Stutz Artiano Shinoff & Holtz. She
ran against Aguirre for city attorney in 2004 and lost by a 0.8 percent margin.
But Lesley Devaney doesn't think there should be serious
discussions about what the cost to the city was, and will be, in
money, morals, reputation and values of the secret pension
deal.
Leslie Devaney's law firm went to court to get a ruling that I
could not accuse her law firm of intimidation.
A train wreck did occur when the previous city council asked
the city attorney's office for advice when Leslie Devaney
was second in command in that office. The city may very
well end up declaring bankruptcy due to the secret
agreement to underfund the pension, leaving the city over a
billion dollars in debt to the pension fund. The SEC
investigated the dishonesty toward bond holders.
Leslie Devaney thinks office holders should not be
accountable, but rather have the city attorney help them
avoid responsibility for their actions.
This reminds me of Daniel Shinoff's actions
as lawyer for MiraCosta College.

It's important to remember that Leslie Devaney would be one
of the people scrutinized in such an investigation.

lNTERIM REPORT NO. 26
ONGOING lNTERNAL REVENUE CODE
ISSUES RELATlNC TO PRESIDENTIAL
LEAVE BENEFlTS
30 April 2002, City officials granted two union presidents'
requests to use their union salaries to calculate their City
pensions. Permitting union employees to participate iii the City
pension raised tax questions. To address these tax law
questions, the City retained attorney Michael Changaris to
issue an opinion.
'On that same day, former Assistant City Attoiney Leslie
Devaney left a phone message seeking advice:
"Mike Changaris Tax Attorney 5 15-3252 Leslie Devaney
wants you to call him directly re Union President being paid
by City and tax implications. He is expecting your call."74
"...'Leslie Devaney is the city attorney's liaison to the Mayor
and City Council and she is responsible for interpreting the
Brown Act for them.' Aguirre added that, while he has
represented clients in two successful lawsuits against the
city for violating the Brown Act (one of the plaintiffs, veteran
community activist Mel Shapiro, was in the audience at the
forum), thanks to Devaney's advice it will be a lot more
difficult to win such suits in the future because she told the
City Councilmembers not to take their own notes during
closed sessions but to rely on a city attorney's staff
member to do it for them."

SESSION ACTION

voted unanimously to settle Item CS1,
existing litigation regarding Ma Julieta
Avila vs. City of Murrieta, Case No. RIC
507744.
Devaney has targeted board member Kathleen Sterling in lawsuit against Tri-City
Hospital.
S.D. mayor is right on how poorly run state is
By Logan Jenkins
San Diego Union Tribune
July 26, 2009
... A spiky bouquet – the Sterling Silver Tongue award – to the attorneys for seven fired Tri-City executives who are
suing four board members, Tri-City Medical Center and its current CEO for illegal termination and defamation.
Without judging the merits of the case, one thing you have to admire about the lawsuit's complaint, fashioned by
the law firm of Stutz, Artiano, Shinoff & Holtz, is the way it focuses like a laser on what it calls, over and over and
over, the “Sterling Faction.”
The overriding theory of the lawsuit is that the chain of events that led to the firing of the seven high-level
executives, as well as the departure of former CEO Arthur Gonzalez via settlement, was orchestrated exclusively
by Kathleen Sterling, a maverick board member with a score of scores to settle against the Tri-City executives and
several hostile board members.
Here's an illustrative paragraph from the complaint that lays out the dynamic that the plaintiffs hope will earn them
millions of dollars in damages:
“The Healthcare Executives are informed and believe that as soon as elected (in November), the Sterling Faction
set out to exact revenge against the Healthcare Executives and then-CEO Gonzalez who had worked for so many
years to protect the District and the public from Defendant Sterling's abuses and that the Sterling Faction set out
to exact retribution for the Healthcare Executives' perceived anti-union political beliefs. Even before the elections
were certified, the union-backed Sterling Faction began meeting as a group to plot the ouster . . . ”
In the plaintiffs' narrative, the other board members of the Sterling Faction – RoseMarie Reno, Charlene Anderson
and George Coulter – were mere pro-union stooges under Sterling's decisive thumb.
By focusing the lawsuit on Sterling, the Exiled Seven's attorneys accomplish a couple of things. They create a
colorful villain with a well-documented history of odd behavior. Moreover, they posit a highly personal motive for
the firings – Sterling's burning desire for vengeance – that dovetails with the allegedly self-interested agenda of
the nurses union.
If a jury ever hears this mother of all termination cases – each plaintiff is asking for a minimum of a million
dollars, and that doesn't include punitive damages – Sterling will be the alleged conspiracy's ringleader, the star
of the show.
And the other defendants? They're just stooges, along for the ride.
