HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF CITY COUNCIL
JAMES G. ROURKE, CITY ATTORNEY
DANIEL K. SPRADLIN, DEPUTY CITY ATTORNEY
MARK FERCHLAND V'. CITY OF TUSTIN
We have reviewed the evaluation and authority request from Carl
Warren on this claim. We have also spoken to Lou Freiheit, the
adjuster handling the matter.
As we understand it, this case involves a Tustin police officer
who. drove out of a private driveway into the side of the
claimant's, vehicle. The Tustin police officer was cited for his
violation of the vehicle code and his actions were described as
the cause of the accident in the accompanying police report.
Under the circumstances, we do believe that if the case can be
settled for S9,500, it would be a good settlement for the City.
I recommend that the authority be granted to Carl Wa~=n to
negotiate tbf~ case on that basis.
