 The hearing on the Motion by Shasta County for a protective order regarding the location 

of Defendants’ depositions was heard by the Court on September 30, 2015 at 10:00 a.m. in 

Courtroom 8 of the above-entitled Court. Kennedy Helm appeared for Plaintiffs, Jeff Clause 

appeared for Sutter County defendants and Gary Brickwood appeared for Shasta County 

defendants. 

 The Court has considered the moving papers, the joint statement of each party and 

supporting declarations and heard argument from the parties at the time of the hearing. It appears 

to the Court that good cause exists for partial relief on the Defendants’ Motion and therefore, the 

Court orders as follows: 

 IT IS ORDERED that the depositions of Shasta County Defendants Magrini, Bertain and 

Wells, presently scheduled for October 6 in Sacramento may be conducted in Sacramento as 

scheduled. It is further ordered that the depositions presently scheduled for October 7, of Shasta 

County Defendants Erickson, Wallace, Tippings and Hughes may proceed as scheduled in 

Sacramento. However, the Court orders that Plaintiffs shall reimburse Shasta County for travel 

expenses for the four deputies in the amount of $749.80 and for 5 hours attorney time at $220 per 

hour for Gary Brickwood to travel to Sacramento for the deposition in Sacramento on October 7 

in the amount of $1,100. The Court further orders that the depositions scheduled for October 8 of 

Shasta County Defendants Fleming, Renfer, Thompson and Randall will be conducted in 

Redding. It is further the order of this Court that each party shall bear their own costs and 

expenses regarding the depositions to be conducted on Tuesday, October 6 in Sacramento and 

Thursday, October 8 in Redding, without prejudice to Plaintiffs’ bill of costs or motion for 

reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses should they prevail in this matter. It is further the order 

of this Court that this order shall not affect any determination of recovery of costs and/or fees to
