Goggle searches for Robert F Dilley are now zeroing in on this thread. This is hit #5 today:
There's nothing wrong with Officer Robert F. Dilley's memory. He's just a liar, plain and simple. And he tried to use his lies maliciously ... Very interesting that there were 7 lawsuits against Officer Robert F Dilley. That's an incredibly high number. At that rate a 100-officer department would be fielding ~25 lawsuits a year & nobody would insure them. |

Not sure if this contributes anything but I did find this on Dilley from the first quarter of 2005 in the New Mexico District Court - Litigation Department:
Robert F. Dilley and James F. Vautier v. City of Albuquerque and John Doe Insurance Company. Complaint was Breach of Contract and Statutory Duty and Declaratory Relief. |

Yeah, but Dilley (we don't know if it's the same one) was the plaintiff in that case!
For those unable/unwilling to open an unknown doc file, here are the relevant bits: LEGAL DEPARTMENT QUARTERLY LITIGATION REPORT January 1, 2006 to March 31, 2006 Case Name: Robert F. Dilley, et al. v. COA, et al. Type of Suit: Personal Injury Division/Attorney: Litigation/Michael Garcia Synopsis of Case: APD employees sued for injuries from car wreck caused by perp despite workers comp claims Disposition: Dismissed on Motions Amount Paid by City: --$0-- |
Can I get an unemoticon? Thanks for the tips.

Until Ari cites his source [of claims that Officer Dilley has been the defendant in multiple federal civil rights lawsuits, each settled out-of-court], that's hearsay.
Thanks for doing that research, Ari, and for pointing any interested parties in the direction of the relevant lawsuits. It's unfortunate that such legal information is siloed away, outside the public Web. I'll check into RECAP ("Turning PACER around" via Firefox plugin) soon. |

Web forum text doesn't clearly convey the lack of emotion in my comment. I meant no offense, and made no claim about Ari's credibility. On the contrary, in recent meatspace conversation, I mentioned unsubstantiated rumors that "came from a source who is, in my limited experience with him, seemingly credible."

Fair enough. All the lawsuits were filed in the United States District Court for New Mexico; the case numbers and case titles are below-- Dilley is a named defendant in each case:
93-CV-01195 Blackhurst v. Albuquerque, City of, et al 94-CV-01016 Cadena v. Albuquerque, City of, et al 94-CV-01279 Taylor, et al v. Vincent, et al 95-CV-00297 Clark v.

Otherwise, Federal court documents are $0.08/page through PACER, even though they are public domain. The San Francisco Public Library has one free PACER terminal in a somewhat obscure downtown branch law library, not the main library. Seattle *might* have a free PACER terminal for library card-holders somewhere. |

• SCOTUS wiki • Oyez • OpenJurist • Public Library of Law Googling "alternatives to lexix-nexis" just now I found this page, which looks worth a looksee: Online Legal Research: Beyond LexisNexis & Westlaw. ETA: I just checked my uni's library page and discovered that for $50/year any member of the public can use those resources, including remote access to online databases e.g. Lex-Nex Academic (plenty for our purposes). Maybe UW or SU offers something similar for less? |
Looks like "Bl:rolleyes:gger B:rolleyes:b" got slapped around, after publishing a b.s. response about Phil's case...

Thu, Feb 3, 2011 Reluctant Flyer Having lived in the law enforcement and security world, I'm sensitive to the necessity of the mission. However, TSA leadership has done nothing to dispel the rumors or facts related to TSA incompetency. Blog propagandists like Bob do nothing to address the massive integrity and perception gaps between TSA and the flying public. Customer service is abysmal and the attitudes are clearly visible on the faces of many TSA agents. You can do better but not with current leadership, philosophy or methodologies. |
pmocek - Congratulations!! I'm using a snow day to catch up on the 50 pages of the thread I missed; sorry I'm late to the party.
I'm not sure what's more astounding - that someone attempted to delete the images, or that they didn't realize they could be recovered. A failure of our legal system on so many levels, and yet the correct outcome was achieved. ^

Normally you cannot sue your employer for injuries covered by workers comp. Was Robert F. Dilley trying to scam/shake additional money out of the city?

I hear stories about law suits like officer Dilley's all the time from other officers and town officials. Typically their injuries were caused by not wearing a seat belt so workers comp won't cover injuries from willfull neglect of the department/insurance rules or state law. Once denied they sue the town. Most towns around here use to cave in quickly not wanting the press or the expensive of the suit.
