Atall times material to this Complaint, Defendant Menjou (hereinafter “Menjou”), is a Caucasian male, and a resident of Los Angeles County Califomia, 4, Atall times material to this Complaint, Defendant City of Palos Verdes Estates is a California public entity (hereinafter “PVE”). 5. Plaintiff is informed and believes, and thereon alleges, that Defendants, and each of them, including} those designated herein as DOES | through 50, inclusive, are responsible in some manner for the occurrences and happenings, as well as such acts and omissions as are more fully alleged herein, and that Plaintiff's injuries, damages and losses, as alleged below, were and are the direct and proximate result of t actions or omissions of said Defendants. 6. Furthermore, each of the Defendants are sued as the principals, agents, partners, servants, employees, officers, directors, subsidi ies, corporate affiliates, alter egos, conspirators and co-conspirators, joint ventures of each of the rem ing Defendants. Each of the Defendants were acting within the course, scope and authority of such relationship, and with the knowledge, consent, approval or ratification of the remaining Defendants. 7. © Does I through 50 are sued under the fictitious names pursuant to the Code of Civil Procedure section 474, PlaintifVis informed and believes and on that basis alleges, that each Defendant sued under such fittious names isin some manner responsible for the wrongs and damages as alleged below, and in so acting was functioning as the agent, servant, partner and employee of the other Defendants and in doing, the acti 1s mentioned below was acting within the course and scope of his or her authority as such agent, servant, partner, and employee with the permission and consent of the other Defendants. 8. Plaintiff was hired by PVE as a Captain in its Police Department on or around March 18, 2008. Dreiling was PVE’s Chief of Police and was Plaintiff's direct supervisor. 9. Atornear the time Plaintiff was initially hired by PVE, Dreiling, a Caucasian male, began referring 2 ‘COMPLAINT FOR DAMAGESBienes to Plaintiff, an African-American male, “Boy” and/or “Buddy Boy” both in one-on-one conversations and in group situations. Plaintiff complained to Dreiling that this was offensive to him, it humiliated and ‘embarrassed him, and that he felt that the use of these terms was discriminatory. Instead of ceasing to refer to Plaintiff as “Boy” or “Buddy Boy,” Dreiling told Plaintiff that he was on probation and could be terminated at any time. 10. Plaintiff then investigated a claim that another PVE police officer had stolen approximately $17,000} from the PVE Police Union. Plaintiff made a report to Dreiling regarding this alleged embezzlement of funds. Instead of seeking further investigation, Dreiling became critical of suspicious accounting, procedures by the PVE Police Union treasurer and stated that the Union should “never have had an ‘Armenian work as the treasurer.” Plaintiff complained to Dreiling that this was a racist and inflammatory statement. Dreiling simply stated, “I am not a racist Buddy Boy.” 11. Plaintiff was further subjected to racial discrimination when at a retirement party for a fellow officer, which he was required to attend, PVE through its employees and agents presented a slide show depicting a white officer wearing black makeup graphically simulating being hung by a rope. The white officer went so far as to tilt his head at an angle and hang his tongue out of his mouth. Plaintiff complained about this slide show that depicted the hanging of an blackened face man to Dreiling and was told to “get ‘over it” and to “not be so sensitive.” 12. AtaPVE Police Department retreat in La Quinta, California, Plaintiff was further subjected to racially discriminatory and harassing conduct as well as defamatory conduct by Dreiling and Menjou. At the retreat, Menjou accused Plaintiff of being iliterate and called him worthless in front of Dreiling and other police officers. Plaintiff complained about this conduct to Dreiling, but neither Dreiling nor PVE tod any type of corrective action against Menjou, Menjou’s racist and defamatory statements to Plaintiff came after Plaintiff had recommended Menjou's termination to Dreiling for engaging in vandalism, trespassing, and impersonating a police officer. Plaintiff had also complained to Dreiling that Menjou improperly wamed another police officer thatthe officer's daughter had complained about the officer violating a temporary restraining order. Again, neither PVE nor Dreiling took any type of corrective action against ‘Menjou and permitted him to continue espousing his racial hatred and defamatory statements against Plaintiff. 3 ‘COMPLAINT FOR DAMAGES13. After the La Quinta, California retreat, Plaintiff leamed that the PVE Police Department with, Dreiling’s approval and/or participation was issuing Carrying Concealed Weapons (“CCW”) permits to ‘members of the Reserve police force without ensuring that the applicants first completed required courses and obtained certification. Plaintiff confronted Dreiling about this situation because he understood that the cal ymia Commission on Peace Officer's Standards and Training (“POST”) was to conduct an inspection af or around the same time. Plaintiff attended a Reserves meeting near this time to enforce the requirements} ‘and demanded uncertified in luals with CCW permits to obtain certification. Instead of praising Plaintiff, Dreiling became angry and told Plaintiff to stay out of it. POST did conduct its inspection and. found that CCW permits had been improperly issued. 14. Only after making the complaints above, and enduring the race-based discrimination and harassment at the hands of Dreiling and the race-based discrimination, harassment, and defamation at the hands of Menjou, Plaintiff was then given a negative evaluation. 15, Onor about November 3, 2008, Plaintiff was informed that he was being terminated as Captain of the PVE police force. He was told that the reasons for his termin: \n were tardiness and performance issues. However, Plaintiff believes and thereon alleges that this was merely pretext for race-based discrimination, harassment, and retaliati for making protected complaints. Indeed, the termination was disproportionate to how PVE treated Caucasian officers for tardiness and performance issues. 16. Furthermore, PVE claimed that it could terminate Plaintiff at any time’ because he was on probation. However, that is inaccurate based on PVE’s own Civil Service Rules and Regulations, Rule VIII, Section 8, which states in pertinent part that “persons appointed to permanent positions shall be on probation for a period of six months before an appointment or promotion is made complete...Otherwise, his promotion or retention in the service shall be equivalent toa final and absolute promotion or appointment.” 17. Plaintiff was hired on March 18, 2008, as of September 18, 2008 he had worked more than the requited six months and thereafter his retention by the PVE Police Department made him a non- probationary employee of the Department and his retention in the service was the equivalent of a final and absolute appointment. 18. The PVE Police Department also to maintain Plaintiff's personne! file properly.

On or around _, Plaintiff filed another Goverment Claim with the! PVE regarding invasion of his privacy and confidence in his personnel file. Again, PVE never responded t Plaintiff's claim, including failing to send him any type of correspondence that PVE rejected Plaintiff's claim. 22.
