shall affect and binding on JOHN HADDAD, CHRIS JACKSON and NANCY HOLMAN. The

parties agreed and it is hereby ordered that Nancy Holman is a defendant and cross-complainant

at their direction by directors, officers, shareholders, agents, servants, representatives, employees,

The following shall be the court’s order affecting the parties as between them

 1. INJUNCTIVE ORDER AGAINST DEROGATORY WORDS AND ACTIONS:

Neither party shall make derogatory comments, gestures or noises to or about the other

party within the other party’s presence or earshot, or allow others in their presence to do

comments, gestures and noises, and shall take responsible action to insure that such

derogatory comments, gestures and/or noises shall not occur.

 2. NO PHOTOGRAPHY OR VIDEO RECORDING: The parties shall not videotape or

photograph each other unless it is to prove a violation of this injunctive order. Each

party’s stationary surveillance of their own respective property is allowed. Neither party

shall use stationary surveillance of the other party’s property. The purpose of this

provision is to prohibit harassment.

property that can be heard 150 feet or more away from 9:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m. weekdays

and 10:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m. on weekends. In the event there is a social gathering or other

large event at either party’s property which is likely to violate this provision, such party

shall notify the other party 72 hours in advance of the event in a manner likely to provide

notice of the event or gathering.

 6. HARASS: Neither party shall harass, annoy, vex, threaten, strike, harm, or impede the

do work outside of their property boundaries, they shall first provide to the other party

with at least 15 days written notice of the nature, scope and proposed commencement

date of the work. If a party objects to the work, they shall contact the arbitrator within

 13. LEASE, RENT OR NON-OWNER OCCUPY: Each of the parties agree that in the

event either party shall lease, rent or in any other way have a third party occupy their

property covered by Agreement, they will notify the invitee or renter of Agreement and

take reasonable steps to insure that they comply with Agreement. If either party sells,

leases, rents, or in any other way has a third party occupy any of the property covered by

Agreement, the party shall notify all other parties to Agreement within five (5) days after

the sale, lease, renting, or occupying of the third party. This provision shall not apply if

the subject party vacates the premises and retains no right of possession or control of the

property with no possibility of reversion of the conveyance. Should any party hereto reobtain a possessory interest in the property this provision shall again become operative.

 14. GOVERNMENT AGENCIES: Neither party shall contact government agencies to

report the other party unless there is an emergency.

of them, separately and collectively) shall fully release each other of and from any and all

action, causes of action, death, guarantees, warranties (express or implied), balances,

liabilities, demands, obligations, costs, expenses, attorney’s fees, damages, and liens of

every kind or nature whatsoever (hereinafter collectively referred to as “claim(s)”),

whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, fixed or contingent, which the

parties have or may hereinafter have against each other, concerning the Action, or arising

out of the facts, allegations, claim(s), or assertions set forth or made in any manner

therein by the parties prior to the date of the filing of this order.

17. UNKNOWN CLAIMS. This order shall act as a full and final settlement of, and a bar

to, each and every claim or claims the parties have or may have hereafter against each

other, arising out of or relating to the matters which are the subject of the Action or

Agreement except for actions subsequently to the date of signing of Agreement. Further,

the parties acknowledge that they have each been informed by their attorneys concerning,

and that they are each familiar with and waive, the provisions of Section 1542 of the Civil

Code of the State of California, which provides as follows:

A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or

suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which, if known

by him, must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.

18. REMEDY FOR BREACH OF AGREEMENT: If either party contends a breach of

 a) Arbitrator: Kenneth Byrum, Esq., 5500 Ming Avenue, Suite 140, Bakersfield,

California 93309; (661) 861-6191 will act as the agreed upon arbitrator. If Kenneth

Byrum is unavailable, then Oliver Robinson will serve as arbitrator. If Oliver Robinson

is unavailable, then each party will propose two separate names to arbitrate the dispute. 

The parties will go with any mutually submitted arbitrator. If there is none, the parties

will meet and confer as to an agreeable arbitrator within 10 days of the first attempt to

arbitrate. If both parties cannot agree to an arbitrator, then an arbitrator will be appointed

by the Kern County Superior Court. The arbitrator shall be empowered to award

liquidated damages to the prevailing party.

b) Liquidated Damages: The losing party shall be awarded liquidated damages

 in the amount of $5,000.00.

c) Costs of Repair: The losing party shall be ordered to pay the reasonable

costs of repairs as determined by the arbitrator.

by order of this court.

party will notify the offending party in writing of the proposed breach of the agreement. 

From the date of notice, the offending party will have 15 days to remediate the offending

Case 1:07-cv-01676-AWI-JLT Document 35 Filed 09/24/08 Page 6 of 8
action. Failure to remediate within the 15-day time period, or longer if agreed to in

writing, shall permit the aggrieved party to file for arbitration. 

20. REMEDIES RESERVED: Should any party to this Agreement suffer any personal

injury occurring as a result of the negligence or intentional tort of any other party to this

Agreement, including those individuals in the definition of Party, the injured party shall

not be limited in their recovery by any term of this Agreement. The injured party may

prosecute their cause of action in any court of proper jurisdiction and venue, and is

excused from the arbitration clause, the liquidated damages clause, the recovery of

attorney’s fees and costs clause and the notice clause. The prosecution of any action

pursuant to this section shall not invalidate any other provision of the Agreement not

directly contrary to the remedies allowed thereby.

that Agreement includes a waiver of all claims for costs, expenses, and attorney’s fees,

taxable or otherwise, incurred in, relating to, or arising out of Agreement or the Action or

the filing or prosecution of this Action.

22. ATTORNEY FEES: In the event that legal action or arbitration is brought to enforce

Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover his/her reasonable attorney’s

fees and costs as outlined in Agreement only.

22. INTERPRETATION, GOVERNING LAW, AND VENUE: Agreement shall be

construed as a whole according to its fair meaning and not strictly for or against any of

the parties, regardless of who was found to have drafted it. Agreement shall be governed

by the laws of the State of California. Should an action arise to enforce the terms of the

Case 1:07-cv-01676-AWI-JLT Document 35 Filed 09/24/08 Page 7 of 8
Agreement including the Court Order, those actions shall be filed with the United States

District Court, for the Eastern District of California, sitting in Fresno.
