Re: Burdett v. CCSF, et al., No. C-06-720-JCS 

 Plaintiff’s Voluntary Dismissal of Several Claims 

 

Dear Judge Spero: 

 Plaintiff responds to the Court’s request for a letter explaining his dismissal of 

certain claims, as follows: 

 Plaintiff hereby voluntarily dismisses several claims against several defendants, as 

also reflected in the revised special verdict forms, which the parties have e-filed and 

email to Ms. Hom. For the Court’s convenience, the parties are also working to e-file 

and email to the Court/Ms. Hom a revised set of Stipulated and Disputed Jury 

Instructions to reflect these dismissals and other small changes agreed upon. 

 As to Defendants Smalley, Shea, Cesari, Reynoso: Plaintiff will dismiss his 

California Assault and Battery and Negligence claims these defendants, but preserve his 

federal Excessive Force claims and his California Civil Rights (Bane Act) claims against 

these defendants. Plaintiff will also preserve his Fourth Amendment claim against 

Defendants Reynoso, Shea, and Cesari with respect to the unlawful seizure of his camera. 

 

 As to Defendant Delfin: Plaintiff will dismiss his Excessive Force claim against 

Defendant Delfin, but preserve his Negligence and California Civil Rights (Bane Act) 

claim against Mr. Delfin. 

Sincerely, 

Ben Rosenfeld, Attorney
