COMPLAINANT'S OBJECTION TO SEAN HARRINGTON AND SUZANNE


SHELL'S REQUESTS FOR EXPANDED MEDIA COVERAGE

The complainant, by and through April M. McMurrey, Assistant


Regulation Counsel, hereby objects to the requests for expanded media
coverage filed by Sean Harrington and Suzanne Shell and states as follows:

1. On March 26,2010, via email, Sean Harrington ("Mr. Harrington"),


submitted a request for expanded media coverage.

2. Mr. Harrington is not the respondent or a witness In this


disciplinary proceeding.

3. On March 29, 2010, via facsimile, Suzanne Shell C'Ms. Shell"),


submitted a request for expanded media coverage.

4. Shell is not the respondent or a witness in this disciplinary


proceeding. The "media group" listed on Shell's request is "People for Equal
Protection."

-~ ------
5. The People note at the outset that Mr. Harrington and Ms. Shell
are welcome to attend the Maynard disciplinary hearing, observe the
proceedings and report the same to whomever they wish. Such hearings are
public proceedings. See C.R.C.P. 251.31(c). The People object, however, to Mr.
Harrington and Ms. Shell's request for expansion of their own coverage of this
hearing through the use of a video camera, video operator, audio recording
devices and still photography. The PDJ courtroom has very limited space, and
is not large enough to sustain such an additional presence (the equipment and
operator) without impeding the presentation of evidence and argument in this
disciplinary matter.

6. The Colorado Code of Judicial Conduct, Canon 3(8) applies to


these proceedings. That Canon provides in pertinent part that a judge "may
authorize expanded media coverage of court proceedings" subject to certain
guidelines. The Canon specifically leaves the decision to the discretion of the
judge with the use of the permissive "may."

7. Canon 3 (8)(a)(V) defines "media" as "any news gathering or


reporting agency and the individual persons involved, and includes
newspapers, radio, television, radio and television networks, news services,
magazines, trade papers, in-house publications, professional journals, or any
other news reporting or news gathering agency whose function it is to inform
the public or some segment thereof."

8. Mr. Harrington does not meet the definition of a "news gathering or


reporting agency," for the purpose of expanded media coverage. Mr. Harrington
is an individual and does not operate any newspaper, radio, television, news
service, magazine, trade paper, journal or other news gathering agency. Mr.
Harrington is not a member of the Colorado Press Association or the Colorado
Broadcasting Association or any other recognized association of news gathering
agencIes.

9. Instead Mr. Harrington's past ten years is best described in a U.S.


Court of Appeals Tenth Circuit order:

To say that Sean Harrington began this action on September 23, 2005,
would be at once perfectly accurate and highly misleading. That is the
day Mr. Harrington filed suit in federal district court, listing ten
defendants and twenty-eight claims for relief. But in fact, Mr.
Harrington's federal suit is only the latest installment in a long-running
battle for Mr. Harrington's only child, a battle waged largely in Jefferson
County, Colorado, District Court over a span of six years. In that time,
Mr. Harrington has launched a barrage of motions, actions, and petitions

2
aimed at regammg access to, if not custody of, his daughter Shelby,
which he lost upon his divorce in May 2000. Frustrated at his lack of
success in state court, Mr. Harrington brought his campaign to the
federal court system [in 2005], and has named in his action here
defendants ranging from his former wife to the Colorado Attorney
General.

See July 18, 2007, Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals Order in Sean Harrington, v.
Madeline Wilson, et. al, 242 Fed. Appx. 514, 2007 WL 2045485 (C.A. 10), a
copy of which is attached to this motion as Exhibit 1. See also "Stipulated
Agreement Modifying Parental Responsibilities, Parenting Time and Resolution
of all Outstanding Issues" from Harrington v. Harrington, 99DR3717 (Jefferson
County District Court), a copy of which is attached to this motion as Exhibit 2.

10. Mr. Harrington now operates a website in which he posts


statements critical of "the divorce industry" and the attorney regulation
process. Hosting a website does not constitute a "news gathering or reporting
agency." Mr. Harrington can take notes and report the hearing without a
camera or video operator. For this reason, Mr. Harrington's personal request
for expanded media coverage should be denied.

11. Mr. Harrington's request indicates he has been contacted by


"People for Equal Protection", that pooling arrangements have been made with
People for Equal Protection, and that a designated representative of People for
Equal Protection will actually be providing the video camera and operator in
the courtroom.

12. According to the Colorado Secretary of State's website, Suzanne


Shell ("Ms. Shell") is the registered agent of "People for Equal Protection". Ms.
Shell was enjoined from the unauthorized practice of law in People v. Shell,
01SA0136, in 2001. Ms. Shell was then found in contempt of the Colorado
Supreme Court's order of injunction, and was fined $6,000 in December 2006.
See People v. Shell, 148. P.3d 162 (Colo. 2006). Ms. Shell has not made any
payment, not even a partial payment, on this Colorado Supreme Court-ordered
fine to date. See C.R.C.P. 107(a)(4), which provides that a court-ordered fine is
a sanction "for conduct that is found to be offensive to the authority and
dignity of the court."

13. Ms. Shell's People for Equal Protection does not operate any
newspaper, radio, television, news service, magazine, trade paper, journal or
other news gathering agency. When one attempts to search for any prior
publication from People For Equal Protection, one does not find any
publication. When one performs an internet search for People For Equal

3
Protection, one is directed to www.profane-justice.org.Ms.Shell·swebsite.Ms.
Shell discloses that her website is "intended to generate income" and Ms. Shell
asserts a copyright claim to the website's contents. Neither Ms. Shell nor
People For Equal Protection are a member of the Colorado Press Association or
the Colorado Broadcasting Association or any other recognized association of
news gathering agencies. Thus, neither Ms. Shell nor People for Equal
Protection constitute a "news gathering or reporting agency."

14. Ms. Shell has in the past stated that she acts as a documentary
video producer. See, e.g., Ms. Shell's Second Motion for Release of Videotapes
filed with the Colorado Supreme Court in People v. Shell, 04SA093, on July 11,
2007, attached as Exhibit 3. While at first claiming that she would make
pooling arrangements for public dissemination of the video recording in her
contempt trial, she immediately claimed a copyright interest in the videotapes
and attempted to collect a "licensing fee" and other remuneration from the
Colorado Supreme Court for depriving her of her right to exploit what she
considered to be her intellectual property, which she entitled "Contempt of
Court- SLAPP a Human Rights Activist" in her September 11, 2006 pre-
registration statement. See Exhibit 3, page 6, paragraph 2 and email attached
to Exhibit 3. This Court is not required to make any special accommodations
for Ms. Shell under her pretext of media reporting.

15. In accordance with C.R.C.P. 80, the evidence in this matter will be
taken stenographically by a court reporter. Accordingly, Mr. Harrington and
Ms. Shell may obtain a complete and accurate transcript of the hearing at the
conclusion of the hearing. And as stated before, the hearing is public and Mr.
Harrington and/or Ms. Shell may attend this hearing and take notes.

16. Canon 3 (8){d) provides: "A judge may restrict or limit expanded
media coverage as may be necessary to preserve the dignity of the court or to
protect the parties, witnesses, or jurors." Mr. Harrington poses a significant
risk of disrupting the disciplinary hearing in this matter in an attempt to
further his own personal agenda. Mr. Harrington is also likely to distort the
record in this proceeding in support of such agenda. Ms. Shell has already
been found to be in contempt of the Colorado Supreme Court; Ms. Shell
continues to display a flagrant disregard to the authority and dignity of the
Supreme Court by her unwillingness to satisfy the December 2006 fine. For
these reasons, the People request the Court to exercise its discretion by
denying Mr. Harrington and Ms. Shell's requests for expanded media coverage
to preserve the dignity of the Court and protect the parties and witnesses at
time of hearing.

4
17. News media coverage of disciplinary hearings in Colorado plays a
valuable role in promoting transparency and accountability in the attorney
regulation process. The requests pending before this Court, however, have
little likelihood of public dissemination for any purpose other than to promote
personal agendas, disrupt the solemnity of the proceeding, and/or to create
error. The Court must protect the system from this type of abuse.

18. The People request that this Court hold a hearing regarding the
requests for expanded media coverage and that this Court require Mr.
Harrington and Ms. Shell to appear in person at such hearing to specifically
address their requests.

WHEREFORE, the People respectfully object to Mr. Harrington and Ms.


Shell's requests for expanded media coverage. The People further request a
hearing on this motion, and ask that Mr. Harrington and Ms. Shell be required
to attend such hearing.

Dated this :j '>day of/J7a;;;4\, 2010.

Respectfully submitted,

.POINTS OF LAW Colorado constitution Article II Seetion 15

12. A taking of property occurs "when government action directly interferes with or

substantially disturbs the owner's use and enjoyment ofthe property." Black's Law

Dictionary 1493 (8th ed. 2004). This includes a legal interference with the physical use,

possession, enjoyment, or disposition of property, or acts that translate to a governmental

entity's exercise of dominion and control. Pub. Servo Co. v. Van Wyk, 27 P.3d 377,386-87

(Colo. 2001). Wall V. City of Aurora, No. 05CA2456 (Colo.App. 05/3112007

13. A taking ofproperty occurs when the entity clothed with the power of ernine.nt domain

substantially deprives a property owner of the use and enjoyment of that property. A taking

can be effected by a legal interference with the physical use, possession, disposition. or

Second Motion for Release oiVideo Tapes - page 3


07/23/2007 08:31 COlORAD05UPREMtlfURT PAGE 05/10

enjoyment ofthe property, or by acts which constitute all exercise of dominion and control

by a governmental entity. A taking also occurs if an owner is requited to forego all

economically beneficial use of his or her property. Clare v. Florissant Water & San. Dist.,

879 P.2d 471 (Colo. App. 1994); Thompson v. City & County of Denver, 958 P.2d 525

(Colo. App. 1998); Fowler Irrevocable Trust 1992-1 v. City of Boulder, 992 P.2d 1188

(Colo. App. 1999), aff'd in part and rev'd in part on other grounds, 17 P.3d 797 (Colo.

2001).

14. Purpose ofthis section of the [ColoradoJ constitution (Art. n §15) is to provide a remedy
in damages for injury to property, not common to the public, inflicted by the state or one of

its political subdivisions; and this section is not limited in application to condemnation

proceedings. Srb v. Bd. of County Comm'rs, 43 Colo. App. 14,601 P.2d 1082 (1979). See

also: Combined Communications Corp. v. City and County of Denver, 542 P.2d 79, 189

Colo. 462 (Colo. 11/03/1975); City of Northglenn v. Grynberg, 846 P.2d 175 (Colo.

02/16/1993) reference to taking "trade secret" or other property which is protected by the

federal or state constitutions.

15. . Section protects private property or some right peculiar to owner. It is only when !lOme

specific private property, or Some right or interest therein or incident thereto, peculiar to

the owner, is taken or damaged for public or private lise that the constitution guarantees

compensation therefor. Gilbert v. Greeley, S. L. & Pac. Ry., 13 Colo. SOl, 22 P. 814

(1889).

Second Motion for Release of Video Tapes - page 4


07/23/2007 08:31 COLORADOSUPREWURT PAGE 06/10

16. Property includes right to freely possess, use and alienate chattel or land. Property, in its

broader and more appropriate sense, is not alone the chattel or the land itself, but the right

to freely possess, use and alienate the same; and many things are considered property

which have .no tangible existence, but which are necessary to the satisfactory use and

enjoyment of that which is tangible. City of Denver v. Bayer, 7 Colo. 113,2 P. 6 (1883).

17. As this section makes compensable both taking and damages inflicted by the state of

Colorado or one of its agencies or constituent parts. Mosher v. City of Boulder, 225 F.

Supp. 32 (D. Colo. 1964).

18. Just compensation mlL,t be paid for a temporary, as well as a pennanent, taking. Fowler

Irrevocable Trust 1992-1 v. City of Boulder, 992 P.2d 1188 (Colo. App. 1999), affd, 17

P.3d 797 (Colo. 2001).

19. Owner entitled to just, not token, compensation. Swift v. Smith, 119 Colo. 126,201 P.2d

609 (1948).

20. Right of action not taken away by governmental immunity. A "right ofaction" cannot be

lU\constitutionally taken away or damaged by the application ofsovereign immunity to a

tort claim, since there is no "right" in the absence of a statute granting such. Abeyta v. City

& County ofDenver, 165 Colo. 58, 437 P.2d 67 (1968). As just compensation clause

creates exception to doctrine of governmental immunity. Srb v. Bd. of County Comm'rs,

43 Colo. App. 14,601 P.2d 1082 (1979). See also Desert Truck Sales Inc. v. City and

County ofDenver, 821 P.2d 860 (Colo.App. 06/06/1991)

Second Motion for Release of Video Tapes - page 5


07/23/2007 08:31 COLORADOSUPREMtifURT PAGE 07/10

21. If, in the execution of any power, no matter what it is, the government, federal or state,

fUlds it necessary to take private property for public use, it must obey the constitutiollll1

injunction to make or secure just compensation to the owner. City & County of Denver v.

Denver Buick, Inc., 141 Colo. 121, 347 P.2d 919 (1959).

Wherefore, Ms. Shell respectfully requests the following remedies from this Honorable Court

forthwith:
