TO: City Council
FROM: Craig L. Miller, City Attorney
RE: District Court Contract
Attached to this memorandum is a copy of the proposed contract
between the City of Port Angeles and Clallam County establishing
the fee to be paid for filing City cases in the District Court
for 1983. The amount established in this agreement is a
compromise between the amounts requested by the City and County,
in a process of negotiation extending back to July of last year.
The amount established by this agreement includes concessions
by both the City and the County. The total amount estimated
to be paid by the City pursuant to this agreement is also within
the amount budgeted in the 1983 Budget. For these reasons, the
adoption of this agreement is recommended.
Additionally, attached is a copy of an ordinance disestablishing
the Port Angeles Traffic Violations Bureau. This act is in
accordance with the provisions of the contract between the City
and the County, and is due to the negotiation with the County of
an agreement.

RE: Municipal Court Fee Agreement
Gentlemen:
In accordance with paragraph 4 of the Agreement dated August 4,
1981, between the City of Port Angeles and Clallam County,
the City of Port Angeles requests that the parties enter into
negotiations concerning paragraphs 1 and 6 of that contract.
In that regard, we request that you forward to us a statement
of "additional costs" which the County considers to be incurred
as a result of the District Court's handling of municipal court
cases, as those items are defined as the basis of the fee to be
paid by the City by RCW 3.62.070.
.~
,
~~
If you so desire, we will be more than happy to meet with you
or your representatives at any time prior to the provision of
those figures, to generally discuss the negotiations. We would,
however, consider the negotiations to be more fruitful were you
to first identify your "additional costs"'.
If you have any questions concerning this request for a re-
negotiation, please give me a call.
Very truly yours,

MEMORANDUM
TO:
City Council/Hanager
FROM:
City Attorney
RE:
Municipal Court and Public Defender
Agreements
Some time ago, the City Council approved agreements carrying into
effect the revision in the method of operating the Municipal Court,
which had been agreed to by the City and County even earlier in
the year.
Attached to this agreement please find a revised agreement for the
municipal court services. After the City Council had approved a
draft, the County raised concerns about the definition of "case"
contained at paragraph 2 of that agreement. Those concerns arose,
principally, out of the existence, under recent state legrslation,
of two types of tickets; criminal complaints and civil infractions.
While those were included in the definition of "case" as contained
in our agreement, the County felt, for accounting purposes, that the
two should be handled distinctly. The revised agreement does this,
establishing slightly different fees for each, as a result of a
difference in the method of handling the two types of complaints.
The revision, establishing a fee of $14.00 for infractions and
$17.00 for criminal complaints, will constitute some slight saving
to the City over the originally agreed upon terms of the contract,
and is thus recommended for execution.
The second agreement, an agreement for public defender services,
continues the existing format for provision of public defender
services to indigent defendants through the end of this year. At
that time, it will be necessary that we determine whether to
continue contracting with Clallam County, or contract directly with
the public defender. For the remainder of the year 1981, a contract
having already been negotiated between the County and the Public
Defender, it appears to be the simplest course of action to
contract directly with the County. 7he amount recommended consti-
tutes approximately the same amount as the City last paid for
public defender services, when we contracted directly for such
2' 1979.

MEMORANDUM
May 1, 1981
TO: City Council
FROM: City Attorney
RE: Municipal Court Reorganization
At its last meeting, the Council authorized termination of the
existing Municipal Court relationship between the City and County,
and institution of a new method whereby the City files its cas~s
Jirectly in the District Court. The County Commissioners have
considered this request, and have agreed to it. They have also
agreed to the rate for the filing of City cases which had been
discussed between the City and Judge Headrick. This action will
be effective July 1, 1981. In the period before the effective
date, the County Commissioners, who also decided to create a new
district court in Forks, will have to select and appoint a judge
to fill that position.
Documents implementing this change in the court organization will
be coming to the Council within the next month, so that the whole
procedure may be effective on July 1st.

MEMORANDUM
TO:
City Council/Manager
FROM:
City Attorney
RE:
Municipal Court Reorganization
Approximately one and one half years ago, the City, rather than
continue to operate its own separate municipal court, contracted
for the performance of its court functions through the Clallam
County District Court. For that service, the City agreed to pay
forty percent of the District Court's total budget, an estimate
of the amount of the court's time devoted to Port Angeles cases.
Either of these methods of operation of the municipal court are
allowed under the approved Clallam County Districting Plan, the
legal document defining the method of operation of municipal and
district courts in Clallam County.
Over the one and one half year period that the City has been
funding its municipal court through a payment of the portion of
the total District Court budget, the City's case load, as a per-
centage of the District Court case load, has been declining.
This decline has increased since the January I, 1981, effective
date of the decriminalization of traffic offenses, including
parking offenses. Particularly with the decriminalization of the
parking offenses, the number of cases filed by the City now
probably constitutes no more than 35% of the total filings in the
District Court, with the prospect of further decrease.
At the beginning of this year, a Forks attorney, Charles Schaaf,
undertook to call into existence the Clallam County Districting
Committee. That committee is charged with the duty of recommend-
ing changes in the Districting Plan to the Clallam County Commis-
sioners. While Mr. Schaaf was principally seeking the creation
of a second district court in Forks, the conviening of the Com-
mittee has offered an opportunity for the City to alter the form
under which the municipal court is presently organized. Rather
than a separate municipal court, paid for by payment of a per-
centage of the District Court budget, the Districting Committee
could recommend, and the Commissioners approve, a system whereby
all city cases are filed directly in the District Court, with a
filing fee being paid for each case so filed. Such a system has
the advantage of being flexible in that the City's percentage of
total District Court revenue would rise and fall, depending upon
the City's case load. Given our recent experience, this would
appear to be a more reasonable method of paying than the present
system.
Municipal Court
Page 2
The Districting Committee has met on two or three occasions, to
discuss Mr. Schaaf's request. The City Council member of such
committee, Mayor Haguewood, along with City Manager Flodstrom and
myself, have also discussed with that committee the possible
alteration of the Districting Plan so that the City may file its
cases directly and pay a filing fee, rather than pay a portion of
the District Court budget. The Committee has been amenable to
that suggestion, and has recommended to the County Commissioners
that, -if the City so desires, the Districting Plan be amended to,
allow direct filing of city cases in the District Court.
A decision to move to this type of organization of the District
Court would appear to constitute a cost saving for the City. The
present city budget for payment to the District Court for 1981 is
approximately $8,000.00 per month. Using the filing fee approach
to District Court, the City would pay approximately $6,000.00 per
month for filing fees. Additionally, the City would have to
separately contract for public defender services, which we are
presently receiving through the District Court, at an estimated
sum of $750.00 per month. The cost saving for the remainder of
1981 would thus be $1,250.00 per month, for seven months, or a
total of $8750.00. If our case load continues to diminish, the
savings will be even greater.
If the Council concurs in this recommendation, and wishes to seek
r~organization of the District Court, authorization should be given
to the City Hanager or the Hayor to present to the Clallam County
C6mmissioners and the Districting Committee the City's desire to
a~end the District Plan to allow for implementation of a filing fee
system. Additionally, if the Council wishes to go to this system,
i~ will be necessary in the near future, to execute an interlocal
agreement with Clallam County establishing the filing fee to be
paid. Judge Headrick has indicated that he would accept $17.00 per
case, the figure upon which the estimates above noted are based.
The Police Department and myself feel this to be a fair figure,
artd would recommend its acceptance. Given Judge Headrick's
rJcommendation, we assume that the figure will also be acceptable
to the County Commissioners.

Members of the
Justice Court Districting Committee
Port Angeles WA 98362
Dear Committee Member:
Under R.C.W. 3.38.010, an entity called the
"Justice Court Districting Committee exists in Clallam
County. Its function,is to meet in the early part of the
year to consider changes in the organization of the Clallam',
County District Justice Court. Such proposed changes must
.be submitted to the County Commissioners on or before March 15.
The County Commissioners may then adopt the proposed amendments,
after holding a hearing, not later than May 1. Under R.C.W.
3.38.040, it is not possible for the County Commissioners to ,
allow an increase in the number of Court Commissioners, a
change of place where the' court may sit, or an allocation of
part of the time of a Judge to a Municipal Department, without
prior action by the committee.
I have been able to find no record of any committee
meetings since 1969, and some of the committee members may not
know of this function. Under R.C.W. 3.38.010, the members are
as follows:
-.
(1) Judge Chamberlin or Judge Moffett, as chosen by them;
(2) Grant Meiner, or a deputy prosecuting attorney as
chosen by him.
(3) A lawyer selected by the President of the C1a11am
County Bar Association - I hold this position.
(4) A judge of an inferior court, selected by the Presi-
dent of the Washington State Magistrate's Association.
As of now. Hon. Richard Headrick is the only person
eligible for this appointment, but if Sequim or Forks
should appoint a Police Judge before the Committee
meets, an appointment is made.
(5) The mayors (or the mayor's representative) of Sequim
and Port Angeles,
I

- ..<jj
V'.. ......
(6) A representative of Forks, selected by the
President of the Association of Washington
Cities.
(7) The chairman of the County Commissioners.
(8) The County Auditor,
Under R.C.W. 3.38.040, the committee meets at the call
of its chairman (1 doubt if such a chairman exists), or of
the County Commissioners (at its next meeting, the Town Council
of Forks may adopt a resolution asking the County Commissioners .
to call such a meeting), or of a majority of the members. The
purpose of this letter is to request that at least four of you,
as members of the committee, join me in calling for a meeting.
Because of the limited time before the March 15 deadline for
amendments, and the need to comply with the Open Meetings law,
it would be wise not to wait for action by the County Commissioners.
1 propose that a meeting be called to be held
February 9, 1981, at 1:30 p.m. at one of the old courtrooms in
the old courthouse, to consider adopting amendments dealing with
the following situations:
(A) The current Plan apparently makes no provision allowing
the District Judge to hold court anywhere but at Port
Angeles, yet he regularly holds court at Sequim, and
occasionally at Forks, and is paid mileage and expenses
for such trips. To avoid possible problems with the State
Auditor, this situation must be addressed.
(B) The current Plan authorizes one commissioner each at
Sequim, Forks,. Clallam Bay and Neah Bay. R.C.W. 3.42.010
specifies that commissioners may only be appointed as
authorized by the Plan, and R.C.W. 3.38.020 specifies
that the District Committee is the entity which must
propose changes in the number and location of commissioners.
Nevertheless, two commissioners have been appointed for
Forks, and are being paid for such service, and there
may be other anomalous commissioners. To avoid audit
problems, this situation must be addressed.
(C) The County population, by the 1980 census, is over
51,000. When it reaches 60,000, the Plan and the County
Commissioners must, under R.C.W. 3.34.020, establish a
" second electedDIStrict Justice Court Judgeship in the
County. The Plan and the Commissioners ~~y agree, under
R.C.W. 3.34.020, to establish now one ad ~tional part-time
or full-time Justice in this County. At present, the
'-' .
Page Three
Justice Court Districting Committee
January 21, 1981
County is paying salaries to the Court Commissioners at
Forks which are very close to, and may exceed, the
maximum allowed by R.C.W. 3.58.020 as the salary for a part-
time District Judge in a district with a population of between
7,500 and 10,000. For the same money that is now being spent
for a commissioner's court (which is limited to criminal cases),
the County would have a District Court at Forks, capable of
hearing small claims cases. I am convinced that such a court
would save the taxpayers rather large sums in reduced travel for'
jurors, peace officers, and court personnel.
Please respond as soon as possible if you agree to call
such a meeting. It would be wise to send copies of such a
response to the other members of the committee.
Sincerely yours,
~a

IN THE MATTER OF:

X
X
PERSONNEL '1
RESOLUTION NO. /-- ' 1980
Hiring of Alene Maulin and Donne
Konopka under the Personnel Procedures
System
THE BOARD OF CLALLAM COUNTY COMMISSIONERS finds as follows:
I. On D~cember 5, 1979 the Board of County Commissioners entered. into an
agreement with the City of Port Angeles effective August 1, 1979 that combined
the County District Court and City of Port Angeles Municipal Court into a
combined court.
II. Included in this agreement was the stipulation that Municipal Court
employees would be hired into the County District Court.
III. The City of Port Angeles hired these persons under its Affirmative
Action program, thus satisfying the County's requirements for hiring of
employees through Affirmative Action.
IV. The District Court judge reports that he has hired Alene Maulin and
Donne Konopka for the positions of deputy clerk, classified as Administrative
Support III, at the scheduled "A" rate salary of $5.34/hour, effective the
1st day of August, 1979 at the 35-hour work-week rate, for a five month
probation period. '
V. While the agreement became effective August 1, 1979, it was not signed
until December 5, 1979; and thus it was not possible to pay the two employees
at the County's pay rate for the positions. These employees should thus be
compensated for the difference of $.21/hour between the County's pay rate of
$5.34/hour and the City's pay rate of $5.13/hour for the work they have
'performed betwe~h~A~gust 1, 1979 through December 31, 1979.
VI. Through this hiring, these employees shall have all the rights and
provileges, and duties and responsibilities of these positions within the
terms of the County Home Rule Charter and all applicable Stste and County
laws and regulations.
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF CLALL~~ COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
in consideration of the above findings of fact:
1. The Board of County Commissioners approves the hiring of these persons
effective the 1st day of August, 1979 five month probation period. The probation
period may be extended by the department head, with the Board's approval.
2. These employees shall be compen~ated for the differential pay they have
earned, but which has not yet been paid to them, due to the conditions noted
in "V" above; and the City of Port Angeles is authorized and requested to
reimburse Alene Maulin $171.68 and Donne Konopka $171.68, as soon as practicably
posisble, as these persons are still on the City payroll. The County will
subsequently reimburse the City $343.36.
3. The Board welcomes these employees to the County's employ.

Consolidation of }1unicipal and District Courts
As you are awa~e, administrative responsibility for the Municipal
Court was transferred to Judge Headrick on August 1, 1979, although
court employees remained on the City of Port Angeles payroll through
December 31, 1979.
I have attached a copy of the County's Personnel Resolution which should
effect your transfer to the Clallam County District Court. Paragraph V of
the Resolution authorizes a $0.21 per hour pay differential for hours per-
formed by the Municipal Court Clerks between August 1 and December 31,
1979. Each of you have performed 817.5 hours of work during this time
period.
At the request of the County Auditor, this additional compensation will
be handled administratively through the City's payroll system and the wage
differential will be included on your final December 31, 1979 salary
check. At $0.21 per hour, the additional compensation amounts to $171.68.
Your final check will also include your accumulated vacation leave
balances. Although your medical premiums will terminate on 12/31/79,
coverage will extend through January 31, 1980. Transfer of your retire-
ment through your new employer only requires the completion of a new
Permanent Record form.
We all wish you good fortune in your new assignment to the District Court.
Thank you.

SUBJ: Consolidation of Municipal and District Courts.
Marian:
As you know, we have completed the agreement with the County for
consolidation of the District and Municipal Court.
The effective date of the agreement is August 1, 1979 and although
the City was supposed to take a number of actions within 30 days
of that date, the agreement was not consumated until Decerober 5th.
On August 1, 1979 administrative responsibility for the Municipal
Court was transferred to Judge Headrick but the two court employees
remained on City payroll.
The District Court has agreed to accept transfer of the two City
employees (Maulin and Konopka).
Considering the late date I suggest that out processing for these
two employees take effect on 12/31/79.
- Hs. Konopka and Ms. Maulin are to be compensated through close
of business Monday, December 31, 1979; including holiday pay for
December 25th.
- They will be compensated for accumulated vacation Leave balances
at 12/31/79.
City paid medical premiums will terminate at 12/31/79; coverage
will terminate at 1/31/80 (because of premium pre-payments)
unless converted by the employee at the employee's expense.
I would like you to coordinate the transfer' of these exployees
to the County with Judge Headrick and Rosemary Taylor of the
District Court to insure that this transition is made smoothly.
I am advised by Jo Erickson of County personnel that personnel
action (hiring) is initiated by the affected department. Thus,
I presume that Judge Headrick will attend to this matter.
Alene and Donne should be advised of their status in the State
retirement plan. '
Please offer our assistance to the Court in any way that may
aid in the transfer of these employees.

MEMORANDUH
TO:
City 'Council/Manager
FROM:
City Attorney
RE:
Proposed Contract
Attached for your reference is a proposed contract between the
City and County whereby the County District Court will provide
all services connected with the Municipal Court on a contract
basis. This procedure is felt advisable, to simplify the
operations of the court; to place responsibility for the
operation of clerk functicn of the court with the court and
judge; and to save money for both the County and the City,
through consolidation of identical functions.
Briefly, under this contract the City will pay 40% of the total
operating costs of the District Court. This represents the
historical percentage of the case load of the District Court
judge created by Municipal Court. The amount paid will roughly
approximate, and may be slightly less, than the amount presently
paid for the Municipal Court. All Municipal Court functions
will then be performed by County employees under the supervision
of the District Court judge.
The Municipal Court clerk function will follow the District Court,
when it transfers to its new quarters in the county courthouse
effective approximately January 1, 1980.
The City is adequately protected from changes or increases in the
amount to be paid under the terms of this agreement, by means of
the statutory right of the City to withdraw from the District
Court arrangement, and by means of the contract provision which
provides for renegotiation of the agreement during the annual
budget process.

RE:
Consolidation of Court Clerks
"
.~.
Ken:
Based upon discussions with Judge Headrick and myself, Hs. Black has decided that
she would like to remain as an employee with the City of Port Angeles but take a
1eave-of-absence for personal reasons.
I have proposed the following settlement:
(1) Reimburse Hs. Black the pay differential for Senior Clerk for the period
February 23, through Hay 31, 1979.
(2) Grant a three month 1eave-of-absence without pay from August 7 through
November 7, 1979. No rights or benefits would accrue during this time.
Her status would be frozen at August 6, 1979.
(3) Upon termination of 1eave-of-absence, Ms. Black would be entitled to return
to a clerical position in the Financial Management Section of this Department
at the starting salary range of 2A. She would displace the least senior
individual occupying that position at the time of her return to work. This
is the position to which Hs. Black would have been assigned following the
reduction in work force caused by the Court consolidation had she not requested
1eave-of-absence.
(4) Hs. Black will reimburse the City for medical premium costs for the month of
October and November at the rate of $49.40 per month, in order to maintain
health coverage while on leave.
I agree to the terms and conditions referred to above, and acknowledge receipt of a
copy of this memorandum.

Dear Steve:
I would like to inform you of two situations which will impact nlembers of your
bargaining group.
First, the Park Department has elected to implement a 4 day, forty-hour work
week on a trial basis. The Park Director advises that the Department's field
crews endorse the n~~ schedule.
It is slated to begin the week of July 9th, should you care to comment before then.
Secondly, for operational reasons, the City is considering merging the Municipal
and District Courts.
The Municipal Court, under my office, has two full-time clerks, one part-time
clerk: all members of Local 1619.
The senior clerical position - recently vacated by a disability retirement,
will not be backfilled in view of the impending consolidation.
The two remaining positions are filled by Mardean Black and Donne Konopka.
Although subject to approval by the two local governments, our proposal would call
for transferring the two clerks to the District Court, dissolving the City positions,
and contracting with the County for Court services.
etter
Page Two
July 2, 1979
The City's clerks would become employees of Clal1am County where~ at last analysis~
they would earn comparable wages and benefits.
I view this recommendation as both in the best interests of the Court and personnel
involved.
,Let us know, if you have questions or comments.
Very truly yours,

Rob Orton, Director of Finance and Administrative Services
RE: Interim Transfer of Court Clerks
Pat,
This is to follow up our conversation this morning and to advise you officially,
that administrative responsibility for the Municipal Court Section is being
transferred to Judge Headrick, effective today.
This is an interim measure until we reach final settlement for the Court
consolidation.
Konopka and Black will remain as City employees but will repor't to, and take
administrative direction from Rosemary Taylor of the District Court or Judge
Pro-Tern Knebes.
It wi11 continue to be our responsibility to furnish the Court with replacement
personnel for vacations or sick leave; and to offset any extraordinary workloads.
District Court personnel will not be sharing the Municipal Court work, only
providing administrative and interpretive direction.
You will continue to sign time cards for these individuals and approve all leave
and overttme requested.
Leave time and other personnel changes should be coordinated with Mrs. Taylor.
Thank you.

MEMORANDUM
TO:
Director of Finance and Administrative Services
FROM:
City Attorney
6/25/79 Memo from Assistant City Attorney
RE:
Accompanying this memorandum is another memorandum, from the
Assistant City Attorney, in which he expresses some definite
opinions concerning one of the Municipal Court Clerks.
Having confidence in the judgment of the Assistant City Attorney,
I have no reason to question the opinions stated by him in the
memorandum. Further, the specific instance which is discussed
at length in his memorandum is, in my opinion, of a significant
magnitude to justify the conclusions reached by him. The
personal liability situation, both for the assistant city
attorney and for myself, as well as the situation of liability
for the City, is not overstated.
The situation described in the memorandum places this office in
an extremely difficult position. Due to the presently confused lines
of authority over the Municipal Court clerks, we have been pro-
viding advice and assistance to those clerks in the performance
of their duties. As has been often noted, this is not strictly
proper, due to our position as the prosecuting authority. For
us also to assist in the paper work, etc., for the handling of
accused and convicted persons opens us up to criticism. If
some dissatisfied person should allege that, in providing this
assistance to the clerk's office, we have manipulated that office
to assist in prosecution, we could be exposed to civil actions
and/or disciplinary actions by the bar association. The error
on the part of the clerk discussed at length in the assistant
attorney's memorandum clearly shows that situation. Had there
not been an appeal taken, on the basis of that letter, the errors
in that letter could very well have involved the city attorney's
office either as a defendant in a lawsuit or as respondents in
a disciplinary proceeding.
I do not feel that persons in this office should be exposed to
these risks. Therefore, due to the inability to guarantee that
this office will not be so exposed, I must recommend that this
office no longer participate in providing assistance or advice
to the administration of the clerk's office in specific cases.
Should the clerks have questions on specific cases, they will
have to find some source other than the city attorney's office
from which to get an answer to their questions.
Atty Memo of 6/25/79
Page 2
My recommendation on this matter is the same as the assistant
city attorney: as expeditiously as possible, an arrangement
should be worked out whereby responsibility for the court clerks
should be transferred from the Administrative Services Department
to the Municipal Court Judge. He is the proper person to be
exercising control over the details of operation of the court
clerk's office.
If you have questions on this matter, please feel free to give
me a call at any time.

MEMORANDUM
TO:
Director of Finance and Administrative Services
FROM:
Assistant City Attorney
RE:
Municipal Court Clerk
This memo is prompted by a recent: incident involving Municipal
Court Clerk Mardean Black. Since you are well aware of the
problems plaguing the administration of the Municipal Court, I
would not bring this to your attention but for the fact that the
conduct of this individual could have jeopardized my legal career,
and subjected the city attorney, myself, the City and possibly the
judge, to a law suit. Some background information is necessary.
Attached for your reference is (1) a copy of a letter from
defendant Gary R. Anderson expressing a desire to appeal; (2) a
copy of a sentence which I suggested the clerk use to convey some
information to the defendant; (3) copy of a letter which the clerk
prepared and attempted to mail to the defendant.
Defendant Gary R. Anderson was charged in Port Angeles Municipal
Court with assaulting a police officer and destruction of property.
The public defender was appointed to represent him. On June 13,
1979, the defendant was convicted on both counts. At that time he
expressed a desire to appeal to Superior Court and Judge Headrick
explained the procedure. Mr. Anderson indicated to the Public
Defender that he would obtain his own attorney to process this
appeal. When Mr. Anderson's letter arrived at the Municipal Court,
the clerk asked my advice. I explained that one must file a
written notice of appeal within 10 days of the date of the judgment
and that in this case the judge had set an appeal bond in the amount
of $225. I also explained that when someone is representing him-
self the court usually grants some latitude in terms of the form
of the written notice of appeal. I suggested she write a letter
to the defendant, as the clerk of the court, simply reiterating
what the judge had expressed to the defendant the previous week.
She still did not seem to understand so I wrote a sentence on a
piece of paper and suggested that she write that to the defendant.
Later in the day pro tern Judge Reynolds called my attention to a
carbon copy of a letter written by this clerk which was almost
entirely in error.
I had specifically instructed this clerk not to use my name or
the name of the city attorney; it was to be a letter written by
the clerk of the court. Examining the letter, it starts out with
Munic. Court
Clerk, page 2
"per the city attorney." Besides being poor use of the English
language, the city attorney has no business giving any legal advise
to the defendant nor for that matter participating in what is
property the administrative function of the court. In fact, to do
so is unethical. The substantive portions of the letter contain
two gross errors. This clerk explained to the defendant that the
notice of appeal had to be filed by an attorney. This is simply
not true. Furthermore the clerk informed the defendant that court
appointed attorneys were not provided for appeals. This is
absolutely wrong. This clerk's inexperience and carelessness
could have put me in the unethical position of advising a defendant
and, furthermore, giving him false information. An attorney could
easily have argued that this was done to thwart his right of appeal;
the consequences I will leave to your imagination. Initially, I
am to blame for thinking that this person could do a simple task in
a proper manner. Again, I sincerely suggest to you that this
individual is not qualified for this job.
Twice I have expressed my concern to you about the ability of
this person to perform her job. In December, 1978, I gave you
specific examples of unsatisfactory work on the part of this indi-
vidual and alleged that she was unqualified to do the work. After
examining the situation, you concluded that the problems were due
to the personality conflict between the former senior clerk and this
particular individual. Several months later, after you returned
from a vacation, I telephoned you and again expressed my concern
about the capabilities of this particular individual. Your response
was one of disbelief, and you indicated to me that you thought
everything was going fine now and that the "problem" was eliminated.
I can understand how you would reach this conclusion since you do
not work with this individual on a day to day basis.
During the past six months I have been consistently dissatisfied
with the performance of this clerk, and it has been brought to my
attention by several other persons as well. Typical problems
include: extremely poor typing, not remembering details, not re-
membering things from one day to the next, the apparent inability
to understand and follow simple directions, apparent carelessness
resulting in continual small errors. Dealing with her on a day
to day basis is extremely frustrating.
In some respects this person is a victim of government; she has not
been properly trained nor has she been supervised by a person in a
position to do so, and now she is thrust in the middle of admin-
istering the court in the absence of the former senior clerk.
In regard to the performance difficulties set forth above, I feel
that the personality problem and the lack of training which have
been presented to me as reasons for the problems with this individual
are nothing more than excuses for the real issue: her basic -
inability to do this job.

Clerk, page 3
As legal counsel for the City, as well as in my own best interest,
I feel compelled to inform you and put you on notice that I
sincerely believe that this person is not qualified for her job.
Nothing is to be gained by bringing this memo, or its contents,
to the attention of this particular individual. In regard to
the incident which involved me personally, I have explained the
problem to her. Judge Headrick is willing to take this individual
on as a combined Municipal/District Court Clerk and train her. I
suggest and urge you to proceed in the direction of consolidation
as soon as possible.

Clalla~ County District Court;
After my court hearing June 13, I told the judg~ that I
wanted to appeal his dec1.siorn and the judge said for me to
think about- it for a few days.
I do not have'the $250.00 asked: for by. the judge-i~ order
to appeal, therefor I am asking:_~he court to accept my notice
and either appoint me arrattorney to start the process or for
the court to set my case for jury trial, possibly for fall term.
I fell this will give me time to raise the money-to hire my own
attorney" if not I will have to depend orr. another court appoint
one.
I feel that after the City Police took me from Coldies
and locked me up in- the drunk tank for Protective Custody that
it was there responsibility to protect me instead of holding
me 15 _ 20 minutes and pushinKme out the back door still drunk.
I really believe that duri~that 15 - 20 minutes the Police
looked up my'past record and deside~ to prevolk and aggitate
me into the accused char&es while I was intoxicated. After all
the reasom for my: going, to the-drunk tank was pretty eviderct.
and I do not believe that anyone cam ev..em start to sober up im
that short of time.
Also the fact that I was' covered withlblood and many
bruises from my stay/in the tank was never brought up.
I feel that your cour~ just listened to what you wanted to
just-to pass the case througp,. this' is why'I want a j~y trial
I expect to hear ftrom. the aourt soom

SS No. 537-22-9829
Dear Mr. Fisher:
Thank you for your prompt response to my recent request for verification of the
Public Employees Retirement System Board's approval of Mrs. Stewart's application
for disability benefits. We appreciate your effort on our ,part as Mrs. Stewart
has not yet provided my office with a copy of her retirement confirmation for our
records.
Also, your agency's decision to begin notifying the applicable employer regarding
the Retirement Board's determination on applications for disability retirement is
most encouraging. I'm sure other public employers will also benefit from your
Department's policy change as we did.
Thank you again for your attention to this matter.

RE: Notification to Employers of Disability Retirements,
Employee Dolores Stewart, SSN #537-22-9829
Dear Mr. Hollister:
In early May', 1979, an employee of this City, and a member of the Public Employees
Retirement System, applied for a disability retirement.
I assisted by submitting Part II of the retirement application (attached).
Last week, after inquiring of the Department of Retirement Systems, my office
was advised that the disability application was approved with the benefit period
beginning June 1st, 1979. However, my staff was told that your department does
not provide notice of such approvals to employers, just the employee.
This policy seems inappropriate - especially considering the fact that the
employer participates in the application and must be served notice of findings
in order to initiate separation.
In this particular situation, the employee's retirement benefits commence June 1st,
but the individual in question has requested that she be continued on paid vacation
leave into June that she may remain eligible for City-paid medical benefits.
I cannot, of course, maintain an individual on the payroll who has been certified
permanently disabled (unable to return to work), and who has been approved for
retirement.
Letter
Page Two
June 4, 1979
The individual has refused leave-of-absence and consequently, I am processing
her separation based upon verbal advice from your office.
As we are in dispute with the employee in this matter, I do not anticipate that
the individual will provide my office with a copy of her retirement confirmation.
Needless to say, I would appreciate receiving written notice from your office
regarding this matter, and hope that you give favorable consideration to changing
your department's policy in these situations.
Thank you.
Very truly yours,
'f~O~

SECTION I: Employee Stewart is on extended paid sick leave and unable
to return to work because of disability. Termination of the employee
will occur when leave credits are exhaused, or retirement commences,
whichever takes place first.
SECTION II, (f) (Cont.): Mrs. Stewart's illness has incapacitated her
from the performance of duties for over two months. I cannot attest
to the permanency of the disability - only to the fact that the nature
of the ailment is such that she can no longer resume normal duties.
I understand as well that long-term medication prescribed by Mrs Stewart's
physician will produce physical side-effects which would further inhibit
her ability to tolerate a normal wor~ day.

Dear Beulah:
With regard to our conversation about the City's share of Lee
J. Reynold~, Justice Court District Judge, salary, I have
enclosed a copy of the resolution signed by the Board of
Clallam County Commissioners on the 18~ of July, 1969, for
your information
The County Treasurer has received from the City a total of
$2,245.81 which you were figuring at his previous salary of
$641.66 per month. Following is my breakdown of what has been
paid and what should have been paid:
Month Rec'd Corrected Amt. Difference
January 320.83 418.75 97.92
February 320.83 418.75 97.92
March 320.83 418.75 97.92
April 320.83 418.75 97.92
May 320.83 418.75 97.92
June 320.83 418.75 97.92
July 320.83 418.75 97.92
Total $2,245.81 $2,931.25 $685.44
As 1969 is over and we are working on the 1970 Budget, we feel
if the change could me made at this time so that $418.75 is
received in September for Judge Reynold's August salary and
$685.44 is received for the difference for the seven months of
1970, the error can be rectified. I arrived at the $418.75 by
taking one-half the $750 salary ($375) and adding $18 for
Social Security, $18.75 Retirement and $7 for Medical.
Yours truly,

Dear Mr. Mansfield:
Since the Clallam County District Court opened.: in the City courtroom, the
county has been paying $210 a month for rent, utilit.te::: and janitorial services.
In the original computation of this amount we neglected tf) inclu,-'le the cost
of oil heat. We found that this averages approximately $20 a month and, there-
fore, request that th"e county retroactively increase their monthly rent.to $230
a month.

~ct SALARY INCREASE FOR JUDGE LEE J. REYNOLDS
Dear Mr. Herrman:
Attached is a resolution passed by the Board of
Clallam County Commissioners at their regular meeting held on
D"uly 18~1~969 which increased the salary of the Judge of
Municipal Court, the salary increase to be effective on
August 11, 1969.
I failed to consider your office when the resolu-
tion was passed for which I am sorry. The County Auditor, Alice
C. Thorne called my attention to the fact that you would be
interested in the resolution. Do hope that it is not too late
to inconvenience your office too much.
If you have any questions regarding the matter,
feel free to call this office.
Thank you.
Emily Russo
Secretary
