(BACKGROUND: In 1988 a gang of thugs, whom were then unknown to the plaintiff, viciously assaulted the plaintiff. The plaintiff reported the assault to law enforcement. In 2014, a member of that gang took malevolent action against the plaintiff.. The plaintiff did not know the thug nor did he understand why the thug took malevolent action against him. So, in October 2014, the plaintiff contacted the thug on facebook and asked what his problem was Subsequently the plaintiff was arrested and charged with the crime of stalking, although the plaintiff made no threats and had contacted the thug on only one occurrence. the plaintiff was forced to send his child to his mother in Texas, over his objections that she is mentally ill. Court appointed counsel told plaintiff to take a plea bargain for stalking or go to prison for 15 years. The plaintiff took the plea bargain and was released shortly thereafter. Plaintiff then contacted his mother to arrange for his child to return home. Two days before his child was to fly home plaintiff's mother's husband contacted the plaintiff and asked to keep plaintiff's child. Plaintiff refused and an argument ensued. Plaintiff called the police in Texas and made a complaint of kidnapping. the kidnappers made counter-accusations that the plaintiff had just been released from prison for stalking a child on the Internet, that Nevada CPS had a case open against the plaintiff and that they were told not to send plaintiff's child home. Nevada CPS called Texas authorities and "cleared up the confusion". Then the kidnappers alleged that plaintiff had sexually abused his child. Texas CPS opened a case and a civil suit ensued. Plaintiff went to Texas to fight for his parental rights. At a bench trial in Texas, plaintiff demanded a jury trial. Immediately after the bench rial and before jury trial the plaintiff was arrested on a warrant from Nevada an was shortly thereafter transported back to Nevada to face charges of abuse. Upon arrival to Nevada, Esmeralda County Sheriff's office, (ECSO), (continued) housed the plaintiff at HDSP under NRS 209.311 "safe-keeper" law. HDSP staff placed the plaintiff into the "fish tank" . . . which is a unit for freshly convicted prisoners awaiting classification. There is no access to phones or law library while in the fish tank, or if there is access no instructions are provided to inmates for access. Unknown to the plaintiff, Esmeralda Justice court appointed Chris Arabia as counsel. Unknown to the plaintiff and without his consent Mr. Arabia stipulated with the state to a continuance of plaintiff's preliminary hearing. Unknown to the plaintiff, Mr. Arabia withdrew from his appointment stating a conflict of interest. Unknown to the plaintiff, the court then appointed David Neely to represent the plaintiff. Then, without the plaintiff's knowledge or permission, Mr. Neely did then stipulate with the state for a 90-day continuance of the preliminary hearing so that he could await his preferred investigator to come back from vacation.)

The plaintiff arrived at HDSP in April, 2015. He was immediately housed in the "fish tank" where new inmates are held temporarily pending classification. Phones and law library access is not available in the fish tank, or if they are available no instructions are provided to the inmates for such access. Beginning in May, 2015 the plaintiff began requesting to be classified to protective custody unit so that he may access the law library. He initially made request to his then caseworker Mr. Fiero who responded saying that he would expedite plaintiff's classification. Soon after and without formal hearing or notification, plaintiff was housed in administrative segregation because NDOC does not have a policy in which to classify a pre-trial detainee who has no conviction or sentence and so the defendants automatically segregate all safe-keepers. Plaintiff then filed grievances to Ms. Nash, Perry Russel, B. Stroud. The plaintiff filed several grievances complaining about inadequate access to the courts because the plaintiff is representing himself in criminal proceedings and is facing the possibility of life without the possibility of parole, is not allowed direct access to the law library (he must use an exact cite law library system where the detainee makes a written request for legal materials and then a law clerk will bring the requested legal materials (check-outs) and is limited to 10 checkouts at any one time, where "items" is not defined but has been used to mean a single statute, and restricts the time allotted for the checkout to 10 days, effectively limiting law library access to known citations and only about an hour per week, and the prison has a rule to allow inmate law clerks to assist inmates with the filing and preparation of legal documents but has informally stopped allowing inmate law clerks to assist ad-seg inmates but has not made any replacement for them, all non-segregation inmates have a higher caliber of access to the law library, and HDSP's Inmate Handbook says that all protective custody inmates receive the same program opportunities as general population inmates but plaintiff did not), is not provided indigent supplies such as paper (a glitch in the computer system takes the plaintiff off the indigent list each time he goes to court), refuses to make legal copies due to a copy limit imposed upon convicted inmates, the prison does not provide adequate access to legal calls (ad-seg detainees are not allowed direct access to phones. Instead, they must submit a written request for use of a phone at least 24-hours in advance. There are only two wireless phones to accommodate 84 to 100 inmates. The operating procedure is that the detainee submits a written request for the phone 24 hours in advance and state the purpose of the call (legal or personal) and the time at which the call is needed to be placed and then a correction's officer is to prioritize legal calls over personal calls and give the phone at the requested time. In practice this hardly ever works. For example, since October 26, 2016 to December 15, 2016 the plaintiff has submitted 54 requests for legal calls. Of those 54 requests, only 15 of those requests resulted in receipt of the phone. Of those 15 times that the plaintiff received the phone, only about 5 times was it received at the time it was requested for, and of those 15 times that the plaintiff received the phone only about 7 times was a call actually able to be placed because the called party was unavailable due directly to the fact that the plaintiff is unable to predict when he will actually received the phone. Once the phone is received the ad-seg detainee only has 15-30 minutes in which to complete the call. These restrictions are so unreasonable as to make use of the phone meaningless.) and the prison does not allow adequate legal visitation (ad-seg detainees are only allowed to have one contact legal visit per week and that visit must take place on a specific day. At the time of this writing, visits are only allowed from 8:00 am to 3:00 pm on Wednesdays. Visitation on other days is restricted to visits through safety glass in an environment that does not have any privacy for the legal conversation, which makes legal visits impossible except on Wednesdays). When considered as a whole, these restrictions on law library access, legal calls, legal supplies, legal visits, and legal copies is unreasonable, unconstitutional, and makes all court appointed counsel and investigators meaningless. Defendants D. Fiero, B. Stroud, Mr. Graham, Mr. Belmore, Ms. Nash, Ms. Barrett, Mr. Gordon, Mr. Tristan, D. Neven, all denied these numerous and detailed grievances which were submitted between April, 2015 to January, 2017. This complete disregard to plaintiff's rights have resulted in great harm to the plaintiff. The plaintiff was unable to discover that the stalking conviction was not constitutional until 13 months after the conviction which created procedural bars (as untimely) that the plaintiff has thus far been unable to get over. Additionally, Nevada Revised Statutes allow for a new trial for the reason of new evidence within 2 years of conviction and the plaintiff has new evidence which proves his innocence that should be considered by the court (for the stalking conviction), but the plaintiff has been unable to effective pursue this potential relief because he was unable to discover how to pursue such relief and did file the wrong vehicle and is now procedurally barred and under threat of being labeled a vexatious litigant by the Fifth District Judicial Court of Nevada should he try again. Also, plaintiff's child is kidnapped by Texas authorities and due to the restrictions and denials by the defendant's, plaintiff was not able to find out how to fight for his parental rights. Texas is now adopting plaintiff's daughter out to the kidnappers even though the plaintiff has not been given any fair chance to answer allegations or given any notice of any proceedings whatsoever even though they know where the plaintiff is at. Additionally, plaintiff is fully aware that it is critical to his defense and to the mental health of his child to get a fair and speedy trial as soon as is possible but despite his numerous attempts and motions for speedy trial he has been unable to effectively get a speedy trial which is a direct result of defendants' denial of plaintiff's right to access the courts. Also, plaintiff's court appointed counsel did stipulate to waive plaintiff's right to speedy preliminary hearing and speedy trial without the knowledge or consent of the plaintiff, and despite plaintiff's numerous complaints in that regard has been unable to effectively pursue relief. The plaintiff did file a petition for writ of habeas corpus in the wrong court (Nevada Supreme Court) and is now procedurally barred from filing another petition for writ of habeas corpus even though he is still illegally confined. This has allowed the kidnappers to continuously brainwash plaintiff's child for over 2 years. Additionally, plaintiff was unable to receive a bond hearing for almost a year, and once he was able to get a bond hearing, his bond was reduced to $50,000, which plaintiff may had been able to post if he had been able to effectively motion and receive a bond hearing the year before. The kidnappers have family who are close friends with the magistrate who allowed the stipulations for continuance without notice to the plaintiff. The plaintiff was thrown into the darkest dungeon in Nevada and not given any access to outside help. All the constitutional safeguards that are supposed to exist to defend an actually innocent American have been rendered meaningless by defendants' denial of plaintiff's rights.

Defendant Mr. Gordon is the swing shift supervisor of the housing unit at which the plaintiff is housed and is responsible for the day to day operation of the housing unit and issuance of phones. Mr. Gordon has arbitrarily refused to fill plaintiff's requests for the phone and mocked HDSP's grievance process when the plaintiff informed him that he would file complaint. Mr. Gordon is directly responsible for violating plaintiff's right to legal calls.

Defendant S. Barrett is the plaintiff's case worker and is the first person responsible for resolving detainee's grievances. Ms. Barrett has shown a complete indifference to plaintiff's grievances including all complaints herein, and failed to resolve them. Defendant Mr. Graham is the law library supervisor at HDSP and is directly responsible for the day to day operation of the law library, including legal copies and indigent supplies, and has shown a complete indifference to plaintiff's complaints, and failed to resolve them.

Defendant Dwight Neven is an associate warden at HDSP and is responsible for the oversight of facility operations generally and is the authority governing first level grievances. He has shown deliberate indifference to plaintiff's complaints and failed to resolve the issues. Defendant D. Tristan is the deputy director of NDOC and is responsible for the oversight of Nevada's prisons generally and is the final appellate authority over the grievance system. He has shown deliberate indifference to plaintiff's complaints and has failed to resolve them. Defendant D. Fiero, was plaintiff's case worker and is the first person responsible for resolving detainee's grievances. D. Fiero has shown a complete indifference to plaintiff's grievances including all complaints herein, and failed to resolve them.

Defendant B. Stroud is an associate warden at HDSP and is responsible for the oversight of facility operations generally and is the authority governing first level grievances. He has shown deliberate indifference to plaintiff's complaints and failed to resolve the issues.

Defendant Mr. Belmore is an associate warden at HDSP and is responsible for the oversight of facility operations generally and is the authority governing first level grievances. He has shown deliberate indifference to plaintiff's complaints and failed to resolve the issues.

Defendant Ms. Nash is an associate warden at HDSP and is responsible for the oversight of facility operations generally and is the authority governing first level grievances. He has shown deliberate indifference to plaintiff's complaints and failed to resolve the issues.

COUNT II The following civil rights has been violated: Due Process __________________________________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________________________ Supporting Facts: [Include all fact you consider important. State the facts clearly, in your own words, and without citing legal authority or argument. Be sure you describe exactly what each specific defendant (by name) did to violate your rights].

The plaintiff arrived at HDSP in April, 2015. He was immediately housed in the "fish tank" where new inmates are held temporarily pending classification. Beginning in May, 2015 the plaintiff began requesting to be classified to protective custody unit so that he may access the law library. He initially made request to his then caseworker Mr. Fiero who responded saying that he would expedite plaintiff's classification. Plaintiff then filed grievances. His initial grievance, filed on June 1st, 2015 was upheld by J. Murphy, who said that he would expedite plaintiff's classification. Soon after, plaintiff was housed in administrative segregation without a hearing or any chance to appeal. Plaintiff filed a detailed grievance citing law. D. Fierro denied it; then D. Nevin denied the following 1st level grievance; then D. Tristan denied the 2nd level grievance, this shows a deliberate indifference to plaintiff's rights. The denial of classification has resulted with the plaintiff being housed in administrative segregation for more than 2 years and has been subjected to the restrictions from legal calls, visits, and law library. the plaintiff re-alleges count I. Perry Russel also denied plaintiff's grievance regarding classification, with Ms. Nash's approval. In addition to the restrictions violating plaintiff's right to access the court, the plaintiff was given no opportunity to access religious activities or adequate access to yard. Two years in segregation is excessively punitive and serves no penological interest. The only justification given is that HDSP has no policy in which to classify pretrial detainees.

The plaintiff re-alleges count III.

HDSP'S Inmate Handbook says that protective custody inmates get same services as general population inmates by the plaintiff did not receive the same caliber of services as other inmates. The plaintiff suffered deteriorating physical and mental condition and hardship.

COUNT III The following civil rights has been violated: First Amendment ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ Supporting Facts: [Include all fact you consider important. State the facts clearly, in your own words, and without citing legal authority or argument. Be sure you describe exactly what each specific defendant (by name) did to violate your rights].

The Plaintiff has made many complaints about HDSP legal mail, including unnecessary delay and unlawful disclosure of the contents of legal mail to other inmates. For example, Nevada Supreme court sent me legal mail on May 3rd, 2017 but i did not receive it until May 10th, 2016. ms. Barrett, Mr. Nevin, and Mr. Tristan all denied my grievances, stating that I was not at HDSP during certain dates, but none of which were relevant to the specific complaint. AR 722 that governs prison legal mail requires staff to deliver mail within 24 hours. There are several different occasions where legal mail was delayed including requests for financial cert. Many of the delays are attributable to the NSF glitch I have described earlier, (i.e. every time I leave the prison for court and am returned the following day, the computer kicks me off the indigent list). On another occasion prison staff opened my legal mail and removed photo's of a minor and declared very loudly "why is there pictures of a child in here" in front of other inmates. The other inmates immediately assumed that I am guilty of a crime against a child and then harassed me incessantly. Mr. Nevin and Mr. Tristan failed to take any corrective action and denied my grievances.

Plaintiff filed an "Emergency Motion For Preliminary Injunction" in this court on December 31, 2016. This court considered it on January 13th, 2017. Following that hearing the defendants notified ECSO that they are now unwilling to house the defendant but also informed ECSO "rest assured that the NDOC will continue to try to assist you in [safe-keeping] in the future should the need arise." ECSO is still unable to house the plaintiff safely, but is housing the plaintiff anyway because there is no adequate alternative now that the defendants refuse to house the plaintiff. The defendants gave no notice or chance to appeal their decision not house him. this refusal to house the plaintiff is blatantly retaliatory and specific to the plaintiff. The plaintiff must now endure atypical and significant hardships as a result of the defendants retaliatory action.
