23 The ex parte restraining order requested in paragraph 1.1 above is to prevent the following
injury [define the injury]:
24
To avoid dissipation of assets, disturbance of the peace and unilateral changes to
25 insurances.

3
4 2.2 REASONS WHY THE INJURY MAY BE IRREPARABLE.
6 To avoid dissipation of assets. Wife has expressed through counsel a need for funds not
understood by husband. The assets should be preserved.
7
The wife has used domestic disagreements as occasions for extreme discord and has
8 involved the police in situations she fomented. Such conduct should not be allowed to
occur in the future.
9
The parties need the insurance they have.
10
2.3 REASONS FOR OTHER EX PARTE RELIEF.
11
It is necessary that the court issue the other ex parte relief in paragraph 1.2 above for the
12 reasons set forth below:
13 The parties should both be prohibited from participating in situations likely to create new
incidents of discord.
14
2.4 CLEAR AND CONVINCING REASONS WHY WEAPONS SHOULD BE SURRENDERED.
15
Does not apply.
16
2.5 REASONS FOR A TEMPORARY ORDER.
17
It is necessary that the court issue a temporary order with the relief requested in
18 paragraph 1.3 above for the reason set forth below:
19
Financial Restraints
20
I am asking the court to prohibit dissipation of assets, incurring new community debt or
21 taking unilateral action with the personal property. I believe this is necessary to keep my wife
from unilaterally taking the bulk of the household furniture and furnishings which I owned before
22 the marriage. The insurances which protect us both should remain in place. Each of us should be
responsible for our own individual obligations to be incurred in the future.
23
We have lived a generally debt free life. The only debts we are paying are for the house,
24 which is my separate property as I purchased it three years before the marriage, which was
before I ever met her, and the BMW which I purchased three months before the marriage. The
25 mortgage is paid by automatic withdrawal from the Washington Mutual bank account, $927 per

1 month. The BMW debt is paid by payroll deduction because it is financed through the PUD Credit
Union. That debt is $527 per month. The money that pays these debts is my current earnings. I
2 had a VISA account with PUD Credit Union. This was my account and Jennifer was an authorized
signer but was not liable on the account. I cancelled the account at the time of separation, and I
3 expect to pay the approximately $1900 balance outstanding. There were no other credit cards.
4 Personal Restraints
5 The court is doubtless aware that my wife and I have recently had an explosive
relationship. She has falsely accused me of being violent with her, while the cause of the
6 incidents of which she complains is her physical aggression. These incidents have uniformly
occured when she has been intoxicated. I have no intention of contacting her. But she has been
7 contacting me, for example see the attached letter I received from her about October 13. I need
the protection of having a restraining order reventing annoying conduct, and from the possibility
8 she would come to my home or workplace. She has driven by the place where I am now living.
10 I am asking the court to grant me the temporary use and possession of my separate
property real estate, 2416 Fifth Street, Everett WA. I am attaching a copy of the deed from when
11 I purchased the property. It is my separate property. Jennifer should be required to vacate the
premises immediately. I am also asking for the contents of the house, except the kitchen table
12 and cookware which she brought.
13 There is also a computer and a desk Jennifer uses in her work. They were purchased
during the marriage but there is no reason she should not take them.
14
There is also a BMW 325i which belongs to me as it is my premarital separate property. I
15 want it, and I do not want to leave it with her. Her attorney has volunteered that she would make
the payments on the car, but I do not trust her to do this. Her history does not justify the faith
16 she would make the payments.
17 At the time we met Jennifer was living in a condominium at 14007 69th Dr. SE,# T- 3,
Snohomish. Her mortgage payments were in arrears and it was in the foreclosure process. She
18 sold it just before the foreclosure date. I paid the seller's closing costs approximating $3200. She
was bankrupt. She had filed a chapter 13 bankruptcy sometime before I met her, but had not
19 made the payments. Jennifer returned her 1999 BMW 323i to the Seattle Metropolitan Credit
Union in February 2004. She was approximately six months in arrears on her BMW payments
20 when she turned it in. She converted her chapter 13 to a chapter 7 bankruptcy in March 2004. I
paid $1200 to the IRS on her old obligations.
21
Parenting Plan
22
I am asking the Court to appoint a guardian ad litem for our daughter.
23
My wife will doubtless claim that I have engaged in domestic violence conduct. I do
24 acknowledge that I have used force against her, but only after she has commenced assaults of me
and only to prevent or restrain her from the assaults she has commenced. My wife is not at all
25 afraid of me, because she knows I will not hurt her. Her lawyer pointed out to mine that I have a

1 black belt in Karate, which is true. My lawyer pointed out to her lawyer that I have never used
those skills on Jennifer, nor would I. I have done such things as to grab ahold of her so that she
2 would not fall, than taken her feet out from under her and put her on the ground in order to
prevent her from continuing an assault of me. Her sister claims I had a fist full of Jennifer's
3 sweatshirt in the car one time. That much is true, but I was using it to hold Jennifer at arm's
length away from me. She had been assaulting me in the car. Of course the incident was loud
4 and unpleasant. Neither Jennifer nor I will look back on these incidents with any pride, but what I
did was not domestic violence.
5
Jennifer's attorney has told my attorney that she is not involved in any substance abuse
6 therapy. This is disturbing news. Jennifer and her family have told me that she was at
Edgewood, a chemical dependency treatment hospital on Vancouver Island, from October 2002
7 through December 2002. She went there after her parents, sister, brother in law and a counselor
conducted an intervention. While she was there she was being treated for cocaine abuse and
8 behavioral problems. I was never told what the behavioral problems might have been. I met her
the following April. When I first met her Jennifer would still occasionally use cocaine. I do not
9 know for sure when she discontinued use, I only know that after we had established a dating
relationship I was not aware of any ongoing use. During the months we were dating, roughtly
10 pril through August 2003, we would do dinners, movies, hikes, shopping, sight seeing and other
ordinary couples activities. These frequently included drinking. She liked white wine, Maragaritas
11 and beer. I was more predominantly a beer drinker preferring light American beers. This pattern
continued until we learned she was pregnant, in January 2004. At that point her drinking stopped,
12 and mine diminished sharply. Except the day we were married, to my knowledge she did not
drink during the balance of the pregnancy. As the birth of our daughter approached Jennifer was
13 eagerly anticipating her first Margarita. About a week after Lauren was born she got it. I do not
believe she has let a week go by without a drink since then. Jennifer likes to drink. Most evenings
14 she would have wine or beer to drink. I was drinking also, but less quantity and less frequently.
rough the summer of 2005 she was drinking to the point that I considered her to be under the
15 influence of alcohol several times per week. I would go to bed while she would continue to watch
television and sip, then would come to bed later. I would wake up when she came to bed, and
16 often noticed that she had slurred speech. About every two weeks or so we would have an
explosive incident involving loud arguments over trivial things. These generally occurred when she
17 had been drinking. I noticed that it did not always require booze for her behavior. The times she
assaulted me, however, were all times when she had been drinking. Twice she has assaulted me
18 while I had our daughter in my arms. Both times she was drunk.
19 I believe that my wife's assaults and her explosive temper are at least partly caused by her
alcohol consumption. Our daughter has been witness to the arguments between Jennifer and me.
20 e arguments are frightening for Jennifer and for me. Certainly they must be frightening for
Lauren also.
21
I do not expect the court to lightly dismiss my wife's claims of domestic violence. Neither
22 do I expect the court to lightly dismiss my report of her history of abusing herself with alcohol and
cocaine. I do expect the court to want to have a report from a guardian ad litem and to get the
23 GAL's specific evaluation of these factors. Until the GAL makes a report I am asking the court to
enter a parenting plan providing for equal time with each parent.
24
I do not know if I will want to be the primary residential parent. But I do know that I
25 could be.

1 Our ordinary routine was that I would go to work at the PUD, starting work at 6:30 a.m.
Because I live and work in town, I was able to come home during my break between 8:00 and
2 8: 15 a.m. every day. Jennifer would be just getting up herself and I would get Lauren up, change
her, get her swing ready and set her up for her morning bottle. While I was doing that, Jennifer
3 would be preparing the bottle. We would visit for a few minutes, then I would go back to work
and Jennifer would go back to bed. Lauren would fall asleep in her swing, then wake up again
4 when Jennifer got going later in the day, usually about 11:00 a.m. I generally would not come
home at noon. Sometimes I would go home during the afternoon break to play with the baby and
5 visit with Jennifer for a few minutes then return to work. I would generally get home about 4:30
p.m. We would visit a little before Jennifer would go out. She worked as a mobile notary through
6 First American Title's Everett and Marysville offices. She would pick up documents for real estate
closings, travel to the places where the vendors and purchasers would sign, then return the
7 documents then come home. If she had signings during the day Lauren was babysat by Jennifer's
sister, her mother or my mother. I was home alone with the baby about half the evenings.
8 Sometimes she would drop off the documents at First American Title's office, other times she
would come home with the documents, in which case I would ordinarily deliver them for her that
9 evening or the next day. Jennifer worked three to four days each week. Lauren is one year old
now. I spent a lot of time with her in my lap, pulling her around in her wagon, playing with her on
10 the floor with her toys. I spent a lot of time almost every day in one-on-one interaction with our
daughter. I read to her in the rocking chair, though she had a tendency to grab the book and
11 gnaw on it. Jennifer and I prepared and fed Lauren dinner jointly if we both were there. We also
did the bathtime / bedtime routines jointly. I was always the one to put her into bed, every night.
12
Jennifer has told me that she knows she cannot continue to work as a mobile notary and
13 that she will be getting a job where she is actually located in a title company's office. This means
that there will be a need for child care. I have found a suitable in-home daycare within about five
14 minutes of the house and my office.
15 Pending receipt of a Guardian ad Litem's report I ask the court to establish an alternating
days residential schedule. ;J /

DOCUMENTS FILED:
ORDERS ENTERED: ORDER; TEMPORARY ORDER; ORDER OF CHILD SUPPORT; AND ORDER
APPOINTING GUARDIAN AD LITEM ON BEHALF OF MINOR, TO BE FILED BY COUNSEL GAUL.
PROCEEDINGS/COURT'S FINDINGS:
HER FROM USING OR POSSESS.ING ALCOHOL OR DRUGS AT ANY TIME AND FROM BEING IN A
PLACE WHERE THEY ARE MADE AVAILABLE.
THE COURT DESIGNATES RESPONDENT AS THE PRIMARY RESIDENTIAL PARENT. SHE
IS TO HAVE USE OF THE FAMILY HOME UNTIL PETITIONER PROVIDES HER WITH $2,500.00
TO OBTAIN ANOTHER RESIDENCE. RESPONDENT HAS TWO WEEKS TO VACATE THE RESIDENCE
ONCE SHE RECEIVES THESE FUNDS FROM PETITIONER. RESPONDENT IS TO PROVIDE
PETITIONER WITH A LIST OF PROPERTY SHE WISHES TO REMOVE FROM THE HOME AND SHE
MAY ONLY TAKE ITEMS THAT ARE AGREED UPON AND ON THE LIST. THE LIST MAY BE
SUBMITTED TO THE COURT IF THERE ARE ANY OBJECTIONS TO ANY OF THE ITEMS. THE
COURT APPROVES RESPONDENT TAKING HER PERSONAL EFFECTS AND THE CHILD'S EFFECTS.
THE COURT ACCEPTS RESPONDENT'S PROPOSAL FOR THE PARTIES TO SPLIT THE MORTGAGE
WHILE RESPONDENT IS RESIDING IN THE HOME. THEREAFTER, PETITIONER IS TO THE
ENTIRE MORTGAGE. THE PORTION OF THE MORTGAGE THAT PETITIONER PAYS WHILE
RESPONDENT RESIDES IN THE HOME IS DESIGNATED AS SPOUSAL MAINTENANCE.
RESPONDENT IS TO HAVE USE OF THE VEHICLE UNTIL PETITIONER PROVIDES HER
WITH $2,000.00 TO OBTAIN A NEW VEHICLE. PETITIONER IS TO CONTINUE TO PAY FOR
THE VEHICLE. TO THE EXTENT RESPONDENT IS USING THE VEHICLE, THE COURT
DESIGNATES THIS AS SPOUSAL MAINTENANCE, SUBJECT TO REALLOCATION BY THE TRIAL
COURT.
PENDING A GUARDIAN AD LITEM REPORT, THE COURT RESERVES FINDING ANY
26.09.191 LIMITATIONS ON PETITIONER BUT FINDS SUFFICIENT EVIDENCE OF DOMESTIC
VIOLENCE TO RESTRICT HIS CONTACT WITH THE CHILD AT THIS TIME. THE COURT FINDS
THERE SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN A SIGNIFICANT RELATIONSHIP WITH PETITIONER AND THE
CHILD AND THE COURT HAS TO BALANCE THE POTENTIAL RISK TO THE CHILD VERSUS
MAINTAINING THAT IMPORTANT RELATIONSHIP. THE COURT USES THE CHILD DEVELOPMENT
GUIDELINES OUTLINED IN KING AND SPOKANE COUNTIES, AND FINDS IT APPROPRIATE FOR
PETITIONER TO HAVE TWO THREE HOUR VISITS EACH WEEK DURING THE WEEK ONE FOUR HOUR
VISIT DURING EACH WEEKEND. THE COURT ORDERS THIS CONTACT TO BE SUPERVISED BY
ONE OF PETITIONER'S RELATIVES AS A LAYPERSON. THE SUPERVISOR IS TO SIGN ONE OF
BRIDGET LLEWELLYN'S SUPERVISOR CONTRACTS, OR IF THIS IS NOT AVAILABLE, DISCUSS
WITH MS. LLEWELLYN, HER EXPECTATIONS OF THE VISITATIONS. THE SUPERVISOR IS TO
BE PRESENT AT ALL TIMES. IF MS. LLEWELLYN IS UNSATISFIED WITH THE SUPERVISOR
THEN SHE MAY SUSPEND THIS PERSON'S SUPERVISION RIGHTS AND APPROVE ANOTHER PARTY
TO SUPERVISE. PETITIONER IS TO PROVIDE A LIST OF NAMES, ADDRESSES, PHONE
NUMBERS FOR THE PROPOSED SUPERVISORS. THE PARTIES ARE TO EXCHANGE THE CHILD AT
THE DAYCARE OR AT ANOTHER NEUTRAL LOCATION WHERE RESPONDENT IS NOT PRESENT. THE
SUPERVISOR MAY PROVIDE THE TRANSPORTATION AS LONG AS THAT PERSON IS LICENSED AND
INSURED.
THE COURT ENTERS CHILD SUPPORT FINDING PETITIONER'S MONTHLY NET INCOME
TO BE $3,800.00, MINUS THE AMOUNT HE IS PAYING FOR SPOUSAL MAINTENANCE, AND
RESPONDENT'S MONTHLY NET INCOME IS $2,100.00. THE STANDARD AMOUNT OF SUPPORT
IS TO BE PAID.

ANDREW S. RIFE, NO. 05-3-02755-1
11 Petitioner,
12 and DECLARATION OF JENNIER RIFE
IN RESPONSE TO MOTION FOR
13 JENNIFER R. RIFE, TEMPORARY ORDERS AND IN
Respondent. SUPPORT OF HER REQUEST FOR
14 A DOMESTIC VIOLENCE
15 PROTECTION ORDER
16
17 I am the Respondent named above. I make this declaration under penalty of perjury and
18
based on my own personal knowledge. I am over 18 and otherwise competent to testify.
I May of 2005 my husband was arrested and jailed for assaulting me. Shortly after
19
getting out of jail he moved back into our home and continued abusing me. I have been so
20
confused and beaten down that it has been very hard to stand up for our one year-old daughter or
21
myself. His abuse has only escalated. As the date for his trial came near I realized that he was
22
actively trying to keep me away from our home so that I would not receive the subpoena to
23
testify. I also realized that he was trying very hard, in concert with his brother, to set me up to be
24
charged with assaulting him. I see this all clearly now in hindsight.
25
His trial was set for Monday Oct. 3, 2005. On the weekend prior to that day he pulled
26
every dirty trick in the book to try to incite me into taking some type of action against him.
27
Instead I just took our daughter and stayed with my sister. But unfortunately, both my daughter
28
and I were sick. She needed to be home in her own bed with her medicine. I called Andy and
29
left a message asking him to leave so we could come home. He ignored my messages. I finally
30
just went back to our house and rang the doorbell until he dpened the door. He flew into a rage

1 and ultimately the police were called. He tried to tell them that I hit him but his story did not
2 ring true. He kept changing the place on his body that he claimed I hit him. There were no
3 marks, because l had not touched him, and ultimately the officers realized he was lying. They
·4 noted that there was a criminal no contact order against Andy from the previous assault and they
5 ultimately arrested him for violating the no contact order. Sec attached Exhibits A and B,
6 Everett Police Reports, Incident numbers 05-10775 and 05-21287, incorpcratcd herein by
7 this reference.
8 I did show up to testify against him at his trial. Once he realized that I was going to
9 follow through he took the prosecutors offer and the case was disposed of. l don't know if he
10 pied guilty or what but I do know that he is required to participate in DY treatment and be on
11 probation for two years. The criminal no contact order is to remain in place for that entire time.
13
HISTORY OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE
14
One of the first instances was in 2003 when we went to dinner. When we came home, he
15
realized he had locked the keys in the house. The first thing out of his mouth was that it was my
16
fault because I wanted to go to dinner, and that he wouldn't have locked the keys in the house if
17
it hadn't been for me. Then he proceeded to break out the garage window with a ladder (at
18
midnight) waking up neighbors, who called the police.
19
Within a couple of months of living together we had an argument after being at a friend's
20
house for a New Years Eve. He was yelling, screaming, and crying. He called his Mother in the
21
middle of the argument to tell her I was being "mean" and being awful to him. After hanging up,
22
he punched his fist thru the bedroom closet door, shattering it.
23
A day after giving birth to our daughter by caesarean (9125104) I tried to talk to my
24
husband about how upset I was that his family kept trying to invite too many of their friends into
25
my hospital room. l asked him to have a talk with his Mother about this. He became very
26
agitated, saying he did not want to hurt his Mother's feelings, and that l was being too sensitive.
27
The nurses heard the commotion in the room, and came in to see if l was all right. They asked
28
me if l wanted my husband to leave.
?9 Within a month of the birth of our daughter, we had another argument. As l walked down
30
the hall to get away from him, he grabbed a handful of my hair and drug me back down the hall .

1 towards him. When I started to cry he said he only meant to grab my jacket and that I was
2 overreacting.
3 Last December we went to visit my sister and brother-in-law and their two children. My
4 husband and my brother-in-law left saying they were going to pick up appetizers to bring back
5 and that they'd be back in half an hour. They came back in three hours and Andy appeared to be
6 intoxicated. We had a disagreement about it when he came back and he immediately became
7 verbally abusive, calling me a "whore" and "stupid". I tried to leave, with our daughter, but he
8 followed right behind me. He got into the car, and continued screaming at me, yelling within an
9 inch of my face, calling me a "whore" and "a piece of shit." He kept screaming that he could do
11 shook me so hard by the sweatshirt I was wearing that he left cuts and abrasions on the back of
12 my neck. He also pulled me my hair to pull me closer to him so he could yell at me. He screamed
that he hated me and that he wanted out. Our 3-month-old daughter was in the car during this.
13
My sister heard all of this, as well as her 4 year-old son, and 2-year-old daughter. My sister came
14
out to the garage and saw what was happening in the car. Later that night at home, he apologized
15
to me, saying he didn't mean to hurt me. He helped to clean and dress the abrasions on my neck.
16
It became routine for him to become extremely angry and verbally abusive during any
17
disagreement. One time he said he hoped that the next time I was out driving that I'd get hit by a
18
semi truck and die. He calls me a "whore, a loser, a piece of shit, fat" and says that he "made me
19
who I am", and that I "would be nothing without him", and that I am "stupid." He tells me all of
20
the time, with a look of hatred in his face that he wants to break my neck, or punch me in the
21
face. He will mimic this, showing me the motions of it with his hands. He gets so angry, he
22
breaks out in a sweat, his face becomes very red and his lips thin and white and his mouth so dry
23
he can barely speak more than a couple of sentences at a time. In a lot of cases he would rip
24
whatever shirt he was wearing off of his body and flex his muscles in front of me. After leaving
25
bruises on me, he will say that I bruise easily, and that he really didn't grab me very hard.
26
There was an instance in the kitchen where he shoved me up against the kitchen counter,
27
and pulled the water hose out of the sink, and sprayed water in my face. When he screams at me
28
with his nose almost touching mine, he has at times purposefully spit in my face when he was
29
done yelling.

ORlGIN/\L
1 In February/March 2005 my husband and I were having an argument that quickly
2 escalated. He said to get my attention that he was going to call the police and say that I had hit
3 him. Once he called, he hung up. When the 91 I dispatcher called back, they informed my
4 husband that they were sending out a patrol car. My husband forced me to get in the car and
5 leave. I did has he asked, and went down Colby Avenue and parked in a quite residential area
6 until my husband called me on my cell phone and said I could come back home. He told the
.7 officers that night that the reason he called was he thought our daughter was sick or choking, and
9 The night my husband was arrested in May, he became very aggressive and agitated after
10 a disagreement. He repeatedly shoved me to the floor, knocking me down every time I got back
11 up. He kicked me while I was down trying to prevent me from getting up. He was also calling
12 me "whore", "cunt", "stupid", "loser" and a "worthless piece of shit". That same night he
13 grabbed me from behind, and rubbed my face in the carpet. He told me he wanted to "see me
dead" and that he wanted to "punch me in the face and break my neck." With gestures he showed
14
me what he wanted to do to me. After he was booked into the county jail, l was the first person
15
he called. He was crying. He told me he was afraid of where he was at, that he was sorry for
16
what he had done and that he was afraid of losing "his family".
17
During another altercation, my husband cornered me in the kitchen, and while screaming
18
at me right in my face, he lowered his head and bit my left cheek close to my chin. Not hard
19
enough to draw blood, but hard enough to leave teeth marks in my skin.
20
In another instance, while we were having an argument regarding our sex life he said that if l
21
wanted to get laid more he'd be happy to show me how it's done. He grabbed me around my
22
waist and bodily picked me up, pinning me against the kitchen counter, and forcefully pretended
23
like he was having intercourse with me.
24
When we were remodeling our bedroom, we had only a single mattress lying on the floor.
25
During another disagreement, he grabbed me by one arm and threw me across the room. I
26
landed hard and on the floor, injuring my arm. The pain was excruciating, and I could not move
27
it without pain for two days. Later that night l told him I thought my arm was really hurt, and
28
that maybe l should go the hospital. He told me to just sleep it off a little bit, and that maybe it
29
would feel better. He even helped to arrange two pillows for me to sleep with my arm propped

1 level to my body. He apologized once again saying that he didn't mean to hurt me; I just landed
2 wrong.
3 On another occasion I was trying again t get away from him. l ran out to the garage to get
4 into the car to leave but he grabbed the keys from me before l could leave. He pushed me out the
5 door and down the garage steps then chased me around the car, trying to get a hold of me while l
6 tried to keep away. When he could not catch me, he picked up dirty clothes from the laundry
8 He has broken many things in our home. He has broken two closet doors,_ a phone, two
9 kitchen chairs, our daughter's toys and a kitchen cupboard. He punched out the screen door in
10 our garage; he has left holes in the walls of our family room. When he punched the closet door
11 he nearly broke his hand; it was purple and swollen for almost two weeks. He got mad when our
12
daughter was a newborn, because l was stressed out and tired. I told him that l needed help. He
told me that l should have told him that I didn't want to be a mother, as he would have made me
13
have an abortion. He has repeatedly told me in anger that he never wanted to be married, and
14
never wanted kids. He has thrown baby bottles, pop bottles, and other breakable items.
15
He would always call his brother or mother when we fought, and they would always take
16
his side. His mother is so abused by her ex husband and sons that her life is no longer her own.
17
She would sometimes show up unannounced and continued to argue along side my husband,
18
goading me, telling me I should call the "cops" on her, the way l called them on my husband in
19
May. On a recent evening while she was there, my husband held the car keys away from me so l
20
could not take my daughter and leave. Eventually, he threw them at me, telling me and told me
21
to get out of his house. By that time, our daughter was asleep, and l was not going to leave
22
without her. His mother asked him to leave but he refused. He said that he was, "staying right
23
where he was, and that he was going to make my life miserable."
24
Recently he came home from work early mad because I had slept on the couch the night
25
before. He cornered me in our daughter's bedroom, and started screaming in my face because 1
26
was arguing back with him. When he got too close, l lifted my left arm in front of me, to protect
27
myself. He hit my arm down so hard that he left a large bruise directly on my forearm, going up
28
into my bicep. l got upset and left to go into the bedroom. He followed behind me, and grabbed
29
me by the arms and started to violently shake me. He picked me up and threw me onto the bed.
30
Then he forcibly kept me there by putting his weight on me. He kept telling me to "shut-up" and .

1 to listen to him. I tried very hard to break free of him. By the next evening, I noticed that I had a
2 very large, black and purple bruise under my right bicep, and large painful bruise on my left
3 forearm, and a strained muscle in my neck.
4 During the entire time I have known him Andy has driven erratically and dangerously
5 with my daughter and me in the car. Anyone who looks at him, or doesn't drive to his liking, will
6 send him into a rage. He will yell obscenities (normally "stupid cunt"), flex his harm and curl his
7 fist in the rear view mirror or driver's side window at the person he is upset with. At times, I
8 have been extremely frightened, thinking we were going to be in an accident, or get into an
10 He has done this many times with our daughter in the car. One incidence, up near the
11 corner of 1o•h and Colby, he jerked the car over to the curb, got out of the car, leaving the drivers
12 side door open, and chased after a car he thought was driving too closely behind us. The second
time, we were up near Rucker Hill and Andy became very agitated, as he thought a passing car
13
gave him a nasty look. He came to an abrupt stop on the side of the road, got out of the car and
14
grabbed what I believe is a tire iron out of the trunk. He was yelling and screaming at the car
15
driving off to come back and fight him.
16
I have filed for a Domestic Violence Protection order against him. He has filed for
17
divorce and obtained an ex parte restraining order against me. This is all in retaliation. There is
18
no basis for any restraints against me. He is just using this to try to have my daughter and I
19
removed from his house and to make my life hard.
20
21
HUSBAND'S FALSE ALLEGATIONS OF ALCOHLISM
22
In the beginning of our relationship, I told him in confidence because I thought I could
23
trust him that I had been in a treatment center the previous year in 2002. Edgewood is a
24
treatment center on Vancouver Island that deals with Depression, Chemical Dependency, and
25
many other addictions, such as gambling and sexual addictions. My family confronted me
26
because they thought that I looked tired and depressed; they were concerned hat I was self-
27
medicating myself for personal issues that I was dealing with at that time in my life. I listened to
28
what everyone had to say, and agreed that the best thing for me was to go, and to learn and listen.
29
I knew I had been drinking too much and knew this was not how I wanted to live my life. I took
30
in a lot of information from Edgewood that I think has dramatically changed the outlook I have

1 on life. It made me more secure in who I am. I learned that during tough times in my life I do

4 At first my husband told me that my parent's must have been crazy sending me there, he
5 couldn't understand why. Once the abuse started, he began constantly putting me down for
6 going, calling me a drug addict and a loser. He also tried to break down my confidence, by
7 telling everyone in his family, his friends, and even co-workers about my past struggle. I know
8 this, as he would tell me in an argument, that I was a loser, and everyone that he told knew it.
9 When I met him and fell in love with him, I decided I wanted to change my life, and live
10 with more integrity and responsibility. I did this on my own and am proud of how my life has
11 turned out. I feel I was a great wife and a wonderful Mother. I was very excited about the arrival
12 of our daughter. I have been with her and taken care of her every day of her life.
13
FINANCIAL ISSUES
14
I acknowledge that the house we live in and have lived in during our marriage was his
15
house prior to our marriage. Also, he bought the car I drive just a month before we got married,
16
although we were living together when he bought it. While I understand that these may or may
17
not be separate assets that is a matter that should be resolved later. I am willing to move out of
18
the house but I will need some time to make those arrangements. I am asking that I be allowed
19
to remain in the home for the next 90 to 120 days. I need to continue using the car as my
20
business requires that I drive to offices. Without it I would be completely unable to earn a living.
21
To compound matters, I have no money. I have no money right now because Andy took
22
all of the money out of our joint checking account. There was about $7,500.00 in that account.
23
See attached Exhibit D, Sept. 2005 bank statement. Earlier this month, the day after he was
24
arrested the second time, I decided to take half of the money out so that I would be able to move
25
and hopefully pay an attorney. But before I could, I found out that he had taken all of it out and
26
closed the account. Sec attached Exhibits D and E. He left me with no money and now he
27
wants my daughter and I to have no place to live and no car to drive. I am asking that he be
28
required to pay me one-half of the money he took from our joint account within I 0 days of this
29
order.

1 I am self-employed. I do not believe I make as much as Andy claims 1 do on his
2 proposed support worksheet. The only records 1 have arc my invoices. Looking back over the
3 last year, my average gross monthly income has been $2, 798.00, sec attached Exhibit F.
4 Andy's withholdings and mortgage interest deductions have always been enough to allow us to
5 pay no taxes on my income but still get a refund. I estimate that my taxes will be roughly 25%
6 of my income. In looking at Andy's most recent pay stub I believe he has under reported his
7 income by about $100.00 per month. I have attached a child support worksheet that I believe
9
10 PARENTING PLAN
11 Andy is asking the court to appoint a GAL for our daughter and to either give him
primary residential custody of our daughter or have us both have her half the time. I am opposed
12
to either. He is an abusive man, both has a husband and as a father. I believe that our daughter
13
would be in real danger if left alone with him at this point. I may feel differently ifhe enters into
14
some meaningful treatment for the domestic violence which also deals with parenting in this
15
context but right now he continues to blame it all on me and take no responsibility for his own
16
actions. I have done some research into the different DV treatment programs and would ask that
17
the court order that he attend treatment at Family Services in Seattle. The reason I want him to
18
go there is that they not only have a batterers treatment program but that have two different
19
programs for parents as well: one is called DV Dads and the other is called Respectful
20
Parenting. I know of no other program that also has programs dealing with parenting. I cannot
21
stress enough how much danger I believe our daughter would be in if he is allowed unbridled
22
contact with her at this point. I am asking that court to order that there be no visitation until he
23
has completed at least 60 days of treatment at Family Services and has received positive monthly
24
progress reports.
25
I have no objection to the appointment of a GAL but I have no money right now to pay
26
any retainer for one. I have had to borrow money from my parents for my attorney's retainer. I
27
make enough from my job to support my daughter and I but I have no extra income. I will have
28
to use every penny I have to find another place for us to live. Andy makes more money than I
29
and 1 would ask that he be required to pay any initial retainer for a GAL.

Respondent.
14
15 In summer and fall of 2002 my husband and I noticed that Jennifer was drinking
16
too much and missing some work. We asked her employer at work if they had noticed a
17
18 change in behavior and they said she didn't seem her efficient self. We asked an
19 intervention specialist to help us present our concern to her. Jennifer recognized that she
20
had gotten off track and volunteered to go to a high-end treatment program. People from
21
all walks of life were treated there for many different reasons. The education was the
22
23 equivalent of a year of college. People that attend the facility have free will to leave. She
24
voluntarily remained and completed the program.
25
When I think back on that time I believe now that we may have overreacted but it
26
27 was a positive experience for her. She took responsibility for her previous actions. With
28 the knowledge she learned from the program she did not fall back into the behavior she
29
had for that short time in 2002.

~~
1 I am very proud of her for the person she is today. I do not see in her what I saw
2 in her during that time in 2002. She is a responsible adult, mother and wife.
3
I know she has been very confused, withdrawn and sometimes depressed over the
4
situation at home. On the surface Andy can be a very likable guy, but I can now see how
5
6 he tried to control Jennifer's live, financially and socially, in a very unhealthy way.
7
Although I believe he loves his daughter, he has never taken full responsibility for her
8
and I am concerned that he lacks the skills to care for her on his own.

On 5/21/05 I was dispatched to 2416 51" St for a physical domestic. The caller, a fl!!mille, called 911 and told the
call taker·"My husband is abusive." The call taker could hear a male yelling in tPie....,Datkground. The female hung

When I arrived, Andrew Rife answered the door. I asked him if there was --~ument
inside the house. He told
me that he and his wife, Jennifer Rife, were arguing but quickly added t~~~n't physical." I asked Andrew to
step out and talk to Sgt. Myers while I interviewed Jennifer inside. ~...._
Jennifer was still upset and crying. I could smell the odor of into~icoming from her, but it did not appear that
she was intoxicated. Jennifer told me that she and Andrew went dinner in Seattle. On their way home, he
wanted to go to a casino. She did not. They started to argu~ it.
When they got home, the. argument continued. Andrew copti_!)ued to escalate until he grabbed her by the arms and
started shaking her in anger. She fell to the ground. Sb,.~t up and they continued to argue. She eventually
called911. . ~
I asked her if she had any injuries or marks as a re~~the
assault. She told me "No. But I have bruises from
last Saturday Night." She pulled up her sleeves A"1thowed me two bruises, one on each arm. The bruises were
purple, about the size of a thumb. I asked her ho~e had gotten them. She told me that he had assaulted her
last week as well, in the same fashion. Jen~iId me that her husband is "a really nice guy, but when he gets
angry he has a terrible temper." The bruis her arms were consistent with Andrew grabbing her by the biceps
and shaking her. ~
Next I interviewed Andrew. Andrew al~ld me that they had gotten into an argument on the way home. He told
me that it "wasn't physical" but alsi;i ~e he had "grabbed" her.
~
Due to the history of un reporte~ssaults involving Andrew and Jennifer and the victim's injury from a previous
DV, I placed Andrew under a~r assault DV. Sgt. Myers remained on scene to obtain written statements.

On 10/02/05 at approximately 0330 hours I responded to a report of a physical domestic violence situation at 2416
51t1 St. While en route, dispatch updated me that the male, Andrew S. Rife (3/22173) is the respondent to a no-
contact order. The protected party was his wife Jennifer R. Rife (8/08/74).
I arrived on scene and was met by a male who identified himself as Jeffrey D. Rife (6/27/75), the brother of
Andrew. At the front of the residence was Jennifer sitting on the porch. Officer Cracchiolo began to interview her
·abouUhe situation: I entered the house were Andrew was, he stated that earlier that night he was at his brother,
Jeffrey's house. Andrew's mom called asking if Jennifer could come over to Andrew and Jennifer's house while he
was gone. He told his mother that he did not want her over at the house. Later thatnight he returned home and
went to bed. At approximately 0330 hours Andrew heard someone banging on the front door. It was his wife,
Jennifer and their child, at first he did not let her inside because he said he was worried about the no-contact order.
He let her in the house and Andrew said Jennifer struck him on the right side of the face with a closed fist and then
kicked him in the shin on the right leg while he was holding their 1 y/o daughter. I looked at Andrew's face and leg,
neither of them showed any redness or indication of a physical altercation. Andrew showed me a telephone in the
kitchen that had been broken by Jennifer the previous day when they got into an argument. The phone was on the
wall and the earpiece had been broken, connected by the wires only. Andrew told me that they have both been
staying at the house the past couple weeks. When I asked he stated he realized that he was in violation of the no
contact order against him.
Andrew then got on the phone and called his brother Jeffrey to come over because he said he was worried about
being arrested and he wanted Jeffrey to witness Jennifer hitting him. Jeffrey arrived at the house while I was
arriving on scene.
When talking with Jennifer she said that she had repeatedly called her house trying to contact her husband.
Jennifer wanted to come home because she was sick and wanted to get medicine and possibly stay at the house.
After repeated attempts to contact Andrew, Jennifer went over to the house. She knocked on the door and Andrew
would not let her in at first. Andrew eventually let her in. Jennifer stated that no assault had taken place and that he
had made that up prior to Andrew calling his brother to come over. SSC(?:i(Lc;!·;,. c'fi:·;;;,:"'':nN·"• ilf 'h'"

Jennifer and· Andrew are married and have been living at 2416 5th street for awhile. They have a child in common
and share custody of the child along with the house.
After talking with Andrew's brother, Jeffrey he said that the two have had multiple problems in the relationship.
Andrew has been trying to keep his distance from his wife, but it has not been possible with them having a 1 y/o
daughter in common. ·
Both of Andrew's parents showed up at the house while I was on scene. The father James J. Rife (8/17/47) stated
that his son had been staying with him at his house the past weekend, due to problems between Andrew and
Jennifer. The mother, Wendy S. Rife (12/10/49) said that Jennifer had called her asking if she could call Andrew to
get permission to come over to the house. Wendy checked with Andrew and he had said that he does not want
Jennifer over there. Wendy called Jennifer back at Jennifer's parents and told her that Andrew does not want her to
come home.
I explained to Andrew that the no-contact order restricts him from coming within 150 feet of Jennifer's residence.
Andrew said he knew he was in violation of the court order and that he had tried to get the order quashed earlier
this week 9/29/05. I told Andrew that the order has not changed and that he was still in violation. When I placed
Andrew under .arrest he began to complain of chest pains. I called for an Aid-car, they arrived on scene and
checked Andrew out. The determined he was alright and it was likely anxiety.
I read Andrew his constitutional rights from my department issued rights card, he said he understood and wanted to
talk to his lawyer. I advised him once we got to the jail he would be able to call his lawyer. I transported Andrew to
the Snohomish County Jail and booked him for violation of no-contact order.
I am referring this case to the prosecutors' office for additional charges against Jennifer R. Rife for assault.

On 10/02/05 at approximately 0330 hours I responded to 2416 5th Street to assist Officer Olsen with complaint of a
violation of a No-Contact Order and physical domestic violence. While I was on my way to the call I received
information from dispatch that there was a valid order in the system that showed Jennifer Rife as the protected
person and Andy Rife as the respondent in the order.
The reporting person was Andy Rife and he advised the 911 call-taker that a female was at the location and that
she had punched him in the face while he was holding his daughter. Supplemental text was added by the call-
taker that the female was Andy's wife, Jennifer, and that she was now locked outside of the residence. There was
said to be an associated white BMW outside of the residence.
Upon arrival I contacted a male west of the house that identified himself as Jeff. Rife,. the brother of Andy Rife. Jeff
told me that he was phoned by Andy and told to come over to the residence because Jennifer had returned and
assaulted him. Jeff said he was there to support his brother. I asked Jeff to remain in his.vehicle and not enter ttie
home until officers could sort out what was occurring.
I then contacted Andy while Officer Cracchiolo spoke with Jennifer. Andy said that he was hit in the face and
pointed to his right eye. I could see no marks that substantiated his claim, but did not rule out the possibility. It
should be noted that Andy's first complaint of the assault only included the area directly above his right eye and no
other part of his body.
Andy was adamant that he did nothing wrong and that he was awakened by Jennifer ringing the doorbell over and
over again. His appearance certainly lent itself to his statements about being awakened suddenly as he was only
wearing jeans that were not completely fastened. Andy was holding his daughter .~1:1i;ir~n1sifld expressed great

Andy told me that Jennifer had left the house the day prior and he was under the understanding that she\vouktt\e
staying in Clearview with family. Jennifer was said to have contacted Wendy Rife, Andy's mother, about her
returning to the house and Wendy told her not to because Andy would be home. Immediately I could see some
discrepancy in who actually resides at the residence in which we were currently at. Both Jennifer and Andy alleged
that the residence was their primary address and with a valid No-Contact Order in the system there is the obvious
problem with the two of them residing under the same roof.
I certify (or declare) under penalty of perjury under the laws of the State of Washington that the foregoing is true and correct. (RCW 9A.72.085.)

I returned outside and contacted Jeff and asked him to complete a written statement for me regarding the phone
conversation that he had with his brother. Jeff began working on the statement in his vehicle. As I was leaving
Jeff's vehicle another vehicle pulled up to the residence. The woman driving the vehicle was identified as Andy's
mother Wendy.
Andy had called Wendy after the police responded and she had come to support Andy. While I was speaking with
Wendy, yet another vehicle drove up to the residence. The driver of that vehicle was identified as James Rife, the
father of Andy. James had also arrived at the residence to support Andy. I spoke with both James and Wendy and
together they explained that Jennifer is a constant problem to Andy. They advised me that Andy and Jennifer have
been living at the residence though it is a clear violation of the order. Apparently in the days just prior to this
incident, Jennifer and Andy had gone to dinner and an argument ensued because Andy refused to drink alcoholic
beverages with Jennifer at the restaurant. That is what sparked Jennifer's leaving to be with family in Clearview.
James told me that Andy had also left the residence after that incident and was staying at his residence. James
said that he had hoped Andy would remain there but Andy told him that since Jennifer had gone to Clearview, he
wanted to return home. Both James and Wendy completed written statements for me describing their knowledge
of the current living situation of Andy and Jennifer.
I told James and Wendy about the nature of the call in which I had responded to with other officers and explained
to them that there was indeed an order violation. I also stated that we were investigating the assault that Andy had
alleged occurred. I advised them that it was quite possible that the incident could result in Andy being arrested. To
this James adamantly replied that Jennifer was the ongoing problem and .that the house had belonged ·to Andy
prior to the marriage and it was not right for his son to have to leave due to the order. I explained to him that it was
my understanding that neither Jennifer nor Andy appeared to have a clear understanding of who was to remain at
the. residence and that perhaps clarification was needed so we could prevent further violations of the Judge's court
order.
I again.contacted Andy inside the residence. I asked him a second time to show me where Jennifer had hit him.
This time Andy pointed to the side of his head above his right ear. I noted that this was a different location than he
had initially pointed out to me the first time I asked. I was also advised by Officer Olsen that Andy had advised him
that he was kicked by Jennifer in his leg but no mark or any other physical evidence could substantiate that claim. I
found it odd that the story of the alleged assault appeared to be evolving as the time passed.
I had brief interaction with Jennifer and she appeared to me to be very agitated and unwilling to answer questions
directly. To my knowledge, Officer Cracchiolo had the most interaction with Jennifer and his follow up should be
referenced for her account of the incident. I can say that in my brief interaction with her she seemed to be unclear
on the matter of who should reside in the residence and who should not. I also suggested to her that a parenting
plan would be a good tool in reference to Lauren.
Ultimately Andy was taken into custody and booked at the Snohomish County Jail for the order violation. I phoned
James and advised him of the outcome as he had indicated to me while he was on scene that he would appreciate
my doing so. James was of course displeased with the final result and I suggest~d to him that he should continue
to support Andy as he clearly was already doing and encourage Andy to not violaleitl;ieJof9j!r;ih·;./;·c;f;nn .•. , , ....

I have known Andy Rife since he was born. He was a wonderful boy and has
grown into a wonderful young man. I am especially impressed by what a loving
and caring father he is. He is a very proud father. He not only changes
Lauren's diapers, but he also bathesher, puts her to bed, but most of all
plays with her and makes her feel loved. There is no doubt the love is
reciprocated as Lauren's eyes light up whenever she looks at her Daddy.
Thank you,
Janice Hawxhurst

(Q.;){p·0.5 Attorney at Law
27 302 Bank of America Bldg.
I have known Andy, my brother in law for the last 8 years. He is a not only my brother in
law, he is a good friend, a good man, and exemplifies what every father should be. The
day that Lauren was born he was the happiest I have ever seen him. The way he held that
little baby and could not stop smiling, you could tell he was absolutely in love with her.
He is a loving, kind, caring, attentive, and gloating father (the list goes on)
Every time I have been around Andy, Jen, and Lauren as a family, it is Andy who
demonstrates what a parent is, not Jen. When she is fussy, it is Andy who cares for her;
gets her a bottle, holds her, makes her laugh, talks to her, plays with her. When Lauren
cries it is Andy that can calm her down, and it is Andy that she wants.
I have NOT ONCE seen Jennifer kiss Lauren and ifl had a penny for every time I have
seen Andy kiss her I would be a very wealthy person. Andy cannot seem to kiss and
adore her enough. I think I can count on 1 hand in the last year that I have seen Jennifer
hold Lauren, and if she does she is quick to give her up- (anyone that will take care of her
"burden" was fine with her-this is how I saw it) it wouldn't even matter if it's a complete
stranger. I have seen her give her baby to total strangers in a restaurant to hold and they
left her sight WITH the baby. (I am not parent, but I definitely saw something wrong with
that picture-most people would) She seemed more concerned with her cocktail than her
baby.
I have felt from the moment Jennifer had Lauren that there was something missing. From
what I have observed since her birth I never saw Jen bond with the baby like most
gloating mothers do. Seeing my close friends have children I know having a baby is
stressful, but there didn't seem to be a bond, a sense of keeping harm from her, a natural
nurturing with Jennifer and Lauren. I observed Andy being more conscientious of
Lauren's needs and acting more like a nurturing mother to Lauren than Jennifer did. It
worried me, and still worries me. After having a baby as precious as Lauren and for Jen
to NOT gloat over her and absolutely adore her like Andy does, baffles me.
Jennifer seems to be a very volatile person She takes offense to everything that is said to
her, conjures up paranoid stories about others, and is very unpredictable and displays
irresponsible behavior. From what I have observed in the past it has always been what is
good for Jen, not what is good for Lauren. I once witnessed Andy and Jennifer having a
conversation about setting up a college fund for Lauren (Andy's idea) and she was
against that because she expected someone else would fork out the money for college.
One night we were all at a family birthday party and Lauren was upset. Jennifer picked
her up and shook her and said "wah, wah wah", very irritated and annoyed that the baby
was crying. I have also witnessed on another occasion where Andy's 78 year old
grandmother mentioned she was getting further along in.her pregnancy and gaining
weight. Jen raised a closed fist at this 78 year old lady and threatened to give her a fat lip
and she was not joking. I have seen her intoxicated on a few occasion's in the presence of
Lauren leaving Andy to attend to her. (As he does regardless)
She has told Andy's family members including me, of her sister's behavior of giving her
children Benadryl to go to sleep so her sister could go out and party, yet she relies on her
sister to watch Lauren. What kind of responsible mother would do this?
She seems to be a very ungrateful, selfish, irresponsible, and pretentious person that has
only her best interest at heart. It seems the most important things to her are about money
and her image. The only thing she talks of is designer clothes, how much money other
people make and material possessions, not what is important in life like Lauren's best
interest. (Prime example keeping Lauren from seeing her Daddy)
Andy's family has been extremely gracious with Jennifer and has done nothing but try to
make her feel like she is part of the family from the time they met. (As they did me when
I married Andy's brother) But as much as we have all tried, nothing we have ever done
has been good enough for Jennifer. She is critical and _ostentatious.
Jennifer's parents seem to be very nice people, but Jennifer never had anything good to
say about them; as she never had anything good to say about anyone, including her sister.
She has always seemed to demonstrate negative behavior and seems extremely bitter
towards life and everyone in her life.
Since Andy and Jen's separation I have seen Andy almost everyday. And everyday that
goes by that he cannot see his little girl it tears him apart. It is so hard to see a father who
loves his little girl with all his heart and so willing to be a DAD, forced to be away from
her because of one person's selfishness. Jennifer, in my opinion is using Lauren for her
anger against Andy.
Andy is one of the best father's I have EVER seen. Most women only wish they could
have a father like him involved in their children's lives. The only person it is harming by
him being away from Lauren IS Lauren. I am sure if Lauren was able to talk she would
say how much she misses her Daddy!
Jt.is always a shame when a divorce happens where children are involved but it is even
more of a shame to keep a father from seeing his daughter. Especially when he loves her
more than life itself and anyone who saw him interact with her would know this to be
true.

This letter is to serve as a witness to Andrew Rife' s character and specifically his abilities
to parent. To support my credibility I feel it is important that you know a little bit about
myself My name is Lance Uhden, I am 32 years old and I have known Andrew since we
were babies. Our parents were close friends and I spent my entire childhood with Andrew
and his family. I have been married for 8 years and have 2 boys of my own, a 12 year old
and a 4 year old. My first son was born when I was only 20 years old; his mother and I
did not marry and I have had legal custody of him since he was 6 years old. Andrew's
interaction with my boys has always been very fun loving-he has always given me the
impression that he would be a great father. When Andrew and his wife gave birth to
Lauren you could tell that she meant the world to him. He was always very hands on and
willing to take care of her. There has NEVER been a time when I felt Andrew was a
threat to anyone, especially children. My wife and I have spent a lot of time with Andrew
since his separation from his wife and the impact of him not being with Lauren everyday
has been very upsetting to Andrew. I know he would be a positive influence to Lauren
and would always be attentive to her needs while in his care.
If there is anything else I can do to enable Andrew to have the rights to see his daughter
please call me @ 360 658-5478 or 425 508-1231.
Sincerely,
Lance Uhden

We were always told to be careful what we say around Jennifer, because she
would take things we said and use them against Andy. I think that Jennifer
is an abuser, because she was constantly trying to isolate Andy from his
family and friends. She has no friends. I think that says something about
her character.
Jennifer keeps Lauren clean, but I have never seen her kiss or hug Lauren. I
have never seen Jennifer get down on the floor and play with Lauren. When
given the choice of who to go to, I have always seen Lauren choose her Dad.
She had Lauren in the car and had been drinking when she drove to Andy's at
3:00 in the morning after she had agreed to stay at her mother's house that
night.

1 More importantly, counsel did not bring a motion on normal notice; he obtained
2 an order to shorten time to have his unnecessary motion for an amended temporary order
3 entered. There is no emergency here. There is no disagreement.
4 The real bad faith here however, is that the Amended Temporary Order that
5 counsel for petitioner is proposing adds restraints not ordered by Commissioner Beadle.
6 In the original order both parties were restrained from molesting or disturbing the peace
7 of either party. This proposed amended order adds that both parties are restrained from
8 going onto the grounds or of entering the home, work place or school of the other party.
9 That provision is not agreed to nor was it ordered in the Temporary Orders. It is simply
10 something that counsel for Petitioner has inserted and is urging the court to sign.
11 The DV Protection Order prohibits Mr. Rife from coming near or contacting the
12 Jennifer Rife. Counsel for Mr. Rife is attempting to insert restraining orders against her
13 that were requested by him at the original hearing but that were flatly denied by the court.

3 There is no disagreement about the terms of the original order and no need for an

8 stood in court and swore that he had no money and could not afford to pay Ms. Rife any

and
10 REPLY DECLARATION OF
Jennifer Rae Rife ANDREW SCOTT RIFE
11 Respondent.
I, ANDREW SCOTT RIFE, declare under penalty of perjury of the laws of the State of
ashington, that the following is true and correct.
I am the Petitioner in this matter. I make this declaration to Reply to my estranged wife's
declaration.
SUMMARY OF RESPONSE
I am not a violent person, and I explain the incidents leading to my arrest below. I have
learned that my wife is chemically dependent, which I did not know when I met and married
her. We have a daughter, who should be residing with me as much as possible. My
separate property home and car should be restored to me.
CHEMICAL DEPENDENCY
Edgewood is an addiction treatment center at Nanaimo BC. It uses the 12-step model of
recovery.
Edgewood states as its goal "The objectives of the treatment process at EDGEWOOD
are abstinence from mood-altering behaviours or chemicals and an improved life
style."
My wife's responding declaration does not acknowledge any addiction. Jennifer's Edgewood
treatment was just the inpatient phase. Graduates also need ongoing treatment, or
aftercare. I met her in April 2003, just a couple of months after she graduated from

1604 Hewitt Ave.
REPLY DECLARATION OF Everett WA 98201

1 Edgewood. In thirty months I have known her, Jennifer has not attended even one single
meeting of a 12 step organization. She has never once made a comment that she was
2 grateful to have her sobriety, not even at Thanksgiving. She completed in-patient
treatment, then stopped.
3
My wife spent 60 days at Edgewood. Edgewood would not have let her spend even one day
4 there if she had not qualified for their services.
7 Addictions are incurable. Consequently, her drug and alcohol history during the last 30
months are a long relapse. Her refusal to acknowledge her relapse is a part of the problem,
8 and heightens the risk to our daughter.
9 I never had the experience of being involved with an addicted person until Jennifer. Drug
and Alcohol Abuse do not exist within my family. So, when Jennifer told me that her
10 parents overreacted to send her there I found her story credible. If we had a couple of
drinks with dinner it did not seem like a big deal. But over time it did become a big deal.
11 By the summer of 2005 she was drinking nearly daily. Her outbursts of physical aggression
had become uncontrollable. And her pattern of staying up late, and getting up late were
12 inattentive to our daughter. I asked her to discontinue drinking, and volunteered to do the
same myself. She refused. She told me that she had the right to have a drink whenever
13 she wanted. She was more than adamant about it, and we had one of our loud
disagreements. The incident on the Friday before my arrest was about her having a drink
14 and me not.
15 3. DOMESTIC VIOLENCE
16 FACTS
17 Jennifer and I have a horrible relationship. It has been punctuated by loud arguments. In
those arguments we have said horrible things to each other. She has called me a "fuck
18 face," a "cocksucker" told me to "fuck your mother," and also to "fuck Stacie (my brother's
wife)", and told me to "lick your father's balls." I acknowledge reciprocating, saying terrible
19 things to her. The words are probably most useful in understanding the intensity of the
disagreements. They are probably not particularly useful in trying to assess blame or
20 determine that one of us was more culpable than the other in the causation of the incidents.
21 I was arrested for a domestic violence assault. The police report states that it is being
referred to the city prosecutor for consideration of filing an assault charge against Jennifer.
22 I do not know the status of that issue. When I was released I stayed at my father's home.
A few days later, Jennifer and I met at the Municipal Court and jointly requested the no-
23 contact order be terminated. The court granted the request and I returned home. I was
involved in a program. Later, without notice to me, the prosecutor obtained a new ex-parte
24 no contact order, erroneously believing I had discontinued treatment. Jennifer and I
continued to live together, thinking that the prosecutor would get notice that I was still in
25 treatment and vacate the no contact order. That was an error.

------------ ------
1 The second incident began when Jennifer, our daughter Lauren and I went to dinner at El
Paraiso restaurant. Jennifer had a large Margarita. We had a disagreement at the
2 restaurant over me not drinking. We left the restaurant after about ten minutes, at my
insistence, because she had loudly called me a "teetotaling a**hole" and I could see that
3 she was not going to become calm any time soon. When we got home the disagreement
continued. She continued to be upset that I would not have a drink. We were hardly in the
4 door when she said she was tired of me getting one up on her, having a stick up my a**
and being a teetotaler like the rest of my family. At the time Lauren was in my arms. I
5 don't know what I said that caused her to become more agitated and violent, but she
suddenly pushed me twice (with Lauren still in my arms) and Lauren started to cry. At that
6 point I said Oh my God, What are you doing? And she continued to rage. I set Lauren in
the crib in her room so she would not see more of this. I stayed with her a while to calm
7 her also hoping that Jennifer would calm herself too. Lauren calmed a bit and I left her,
hoping she would fall asleep soon. When I came out of Lauren's room Jennifer told me
8 (epithets omitted) that she was leaving and I could stay with our daughter. I told her if she
wanted to leave, at least Lauren would not see more of us fighting, and that I would stay
9 home with her. At that point she threw the cordless phone at me. She left for about an
hour and a half. I asked my brother and my mother to come over while Lauren slept. I
10 went to my father's home for the night, anticipating that Jennifer and I would not be
fighting. Jennifer came home about an hour later and my brother and mother left. The
11 next morning (Saturday), my mother got a call from Jennifer saying that she was taking
some things and leaving. To my knowledge she had left the home, not intending to return.
12 But that evening when I was visiting my brother at his house, I got another call from my
mother stating that Jennifer was sick and would like to come home. I said she should not
13 return, perhaps staying at her parents home. I went home that night and went to bed. At
about 3:30 the next morning the doorbell rang, and there was Jennifer with Lauren.
14 Jennifer had been drinking. She said "I hope you're happy, you bastard. I'm sick, the baby
is sick and you're sleeping." I said that if the baby is sick, we should get her inside. So
15 Jennifer and I proceeded to change her, put fresh clothes on her and get her to bed.
Before we could even get Jennifer into her crib, Jennifer started to argue again about
16 nothing. Again, while I was holding Lauren, she kicked me in the right shin, pushed me and
punched me on the right side of my face. At that point she grabbed the phone, looked at
17 me and pressed 911 and hung up. The operator called back to ask me what had been
happening, and I told her that I had been assaulted and to send an officer. At that point
18 Jennifer ran out of the house. I locked the door.
19 The officer arrived, and we both told him our respective stories. He did not write any
assault citations. Instead, he arrested me for violation of a no-contact order.
20
Legal Proceedings
21
For the assault charge, the prosecutor offered me a Stay of Proceedings. As a condition of
22 the stay of proceedings I am to remain in treatment with a state certified therapist. My
therapist is Charles Devore. I see him every Friday at noon.
23
When the Violation of Restraining Order action came up for arraignment, the prosecutor
24 offered to have the case resolved by including it in the same stay of proceedings, again
requiring exactly the same treatment.

1 The city prosecutor recognized Jennifer's complicity in the events forming the basis of the
criminal prosecutions.
2
Even since the second arrest, Jennifer has continued to contact me by telephone and has
3 even sent me a love letter, copy attached.
4 4. PARENTING ISSUES
5 I have a great relationship with our daughter. Jennifer does not really challenge the things
I have said. She just says that I am a terrible abusive person. She does not claim to have
6 done a single thing with our daughter.
7 I want the court to consider the active, "hands-on" things I described in my prior
declaration. I also want the court to consider the declarations I am submitting along with
8 this declaration.
9 I anticipate that the court will require me to remain involved with Charles DeVore. I do not
think it is appropriate for Ms. Dyer to try to dictate where I seek therapy for my problems.
10 Though the statement is signed by Jennifer, she could not know the things she has to say
about programs available in. King County. That information certainly came from Ms. Dyer.
11
5. PROPERTY ISSUES
12
When I found myself banned from my own home I did empty $7500 from my savings
13 account, which Jennifer erroneously describes as a checking account. I had established the
account before the marriage. It had $15,000 at the time we were married. Tnen money
14 got spent. At the time I emptied it, only $7500 remained. I am not aware that Jennifer ever
put any money into that account. I allowed her name to be added to the account only a
15 month ago. I needed to find shelter for myself and hire an attorney. I used my separate
property funds.
16
I did not empty any other account than my savings account. She has attached a September
17 30 statement for our joint accounts. But Jennifer had a separate operating account at the
PUD credit union. She did not provide a statement for her operating checking account.
18 Since separation she has closed the old operating checking account and opened a new one.
I have no details about it, but I know of it because when I make my deposit the teller's
19 have a new account number. She has not revealed the money she has.
20 The house and the car should be returned to me. My wife is a mobile notary. She claims
a gross income of $2798 per month. This results in a net income of $2133. She is saying
21 she will pay for the car and the mortgage, but she lacks the cash to do it. The car and the
mortgage total $1454. She would have less than $700 left for all other expenses, including
22 her business expenses.
23 I get a regular paycheck of $2019 exactly as my gross income twice per month. It is as
regular and predictable as can be. The last two checks I have made deposits of $200 into
24 Jennifer's checking account. I did not know what child support might be, so I guessed.
Perhaps this money could help her find more economical transportation.

She may need a car to go to her customers, but she does not need a $527 per month white
3 BMW. My wife does not have the money to pay for a $927 monthly mortgage payment.

The court reserved final determination on my request for a Protection Order and

15 on the issue of a Temporary Parenting Plan. The court appointed a GAL for our daughter
16 and asked that an interim report be issued. A review date was set for December 6, 2005.

1 the back seat. That was around Christmas of 2004. That time he grabbed my sweatshirt
2
collar and shook me violently, so hard that I ended up with abrasions around my neck.
3
He also grabbed me by the hair, again, and pulled my face right up to his and screamed
4
5 horrible names at me.
6 After that time his abuse became routine. Not only physical but constant
7
emotional and verbal abuse. By the spring it was becoming difficult to hide the cuts and
8
9 bruises. Andy would always apologize and swear it would never happen again but it
10 always did. I was depressed and felt trapped. He began to make attempts to control all of
11
our money and we had no friends outside of our two families. I was so embarrassed and I
12
13 tried hard to hide this all from my parents.
14 By May of 2005 the abuse was so bad that I finally called the police. After he got
15
out of jail he promised to get into counseling or treatment and I got it all set up for him.
16
The prosecutor and judge allowed us to move back in together but Andy stopped going to
17
18 counseling and slowly started becoming abusive again. When the prosecutor found out
19 he was not in compliance with his treatment she requested that the No Contact Order be
20
put back in place. The judge did just that but that did not stop Andy. He moved back in
21
22 to our house, continued his abuse and continued to deny that there was any problem,
27 police did not believe him. They arrested him for violating the No Contact Order. At
28
that point we permanently separated. (Please see initial declaration for my detail).

ISSUES WITH ALCOHOL
3
I filed for a Protection Order, Andy filed for divorce. Rather than admit that he
4
5 has a problem, Andy has continued to blame me in any way he can. Knowing that I had
6
gone to a treatment facility years ago at my parents request he suddenly tells the court
7
that I am a problem drinker. When I drink I don't abuse people. I don't drink to excess.
8
9 I don't drink and drive. 1 don't accost people when I am driving. Andy does all of these
10 things. I think he really does have a problem with alcohol, along with his problem with
11
rage and abuse. The following is what I know about Andy's drinking and it concerns me.
12
13 When Andy and 1 first started dating in 2002, I noticed right away that he drank
14 quite a bit. Because I had just recently been at a treatment center in Vancouver I had
15
concerns that maybe he was an alcoholic. He explained is drinking to me telling me,
16
"Drinking is how I relax and get to know people." He also told me that he didn't really
17
18 know of any other way to have a good time. During that time, and up until he filed for
19
divorce, Andy has never expressed any concern over my alcohol consumption.
20
Andy has bragged to me that, before we met, he used to go out 3-4 times a week
21
22 with his friend and get very intoxicated. He bragged that he missed work from hangovers.
23 He also told me that he and his buddy got into many bar room brawls, and fist fights with
24
strangers that they met in these bars. He spoke with pride of the fights he would get into
25
26 while driving his car. He was a "regular" at a bar in Everett on Hewitt Ave. called
27 "Bucks American Cafe". They even specially ordered an imported Italian beer for him
28
called "Moretti". He told me that sometimes he got so drunk there, that one of the staff

1 would follow him home after closing. He would spend 4-6 days a week there, usually
2
after work, and on Saturdays.
3
He also confided in me at one point, that sometime before we met, his family had
4
5 mentioned that they were concerned that he was gaining weight from drinking to much.
6 His Mother and Aunt have also expressed concern that they do not like to see him
7
drinking so much. Alcoholism runs rampant in Andy's family. Both his Mom and Aunt
8
9 completely abstain, as both of their parents were alcoholics. His maternal Uncle is an
10 alcoholic who no longer drinks due to the many problems in his life associated with
11
alcohol. His sister in-law is also an alcoholic and she also no longer drinks. I believed
12
13 she stopped after getting a DUL
23 occasions that it is routine for he and his Father to stop at the liquor store for Scotch and
24
beer to drink in the van on the way home.

REQUEST FOR RESTRICTION ON ANDY'S TIME WITH OUR DAUGHTER
4
5 Because of Andy's escalating pattern of abuse, both physical and emotional,
6 have real concerns about him spending time alone with Lauren. Below are some other
7
issues that 1 believe bear on his ability to adequately and safely parent Lauren alone.
8
9 Andy is a dangerous driver and 1 believe this presents a danger to our daughter. 1
10 have witnessed firsthand many frightening acts of rage when Andy is behind the wheel.
11
He has told me of many instances of he or his Dad screaming out the car window at the
12
13 person driving next to them. Both Andy and his father refer to women drivers most often
14 as, "stupid cunts" and "fat bitches." 1 have witnessed him driving too fast and erratically,
15
even with our daughter in the car. Many times he has stopped the car and challenged
16
someone to come and fight him while Lauren and 1 were in the car. 1 have felt that we
17
18 were in danger on many occasions.
19
Andy refuses to let a woman drive when he is in the car, regardless of his level on
20
intoxication. There are many times that 1 can think of where he has clearly been
21
22 intoxicated but has refused to let me drive, opting instead to have Lauren and l
23 passengers in his car when he is intoxicated. l do not trust that he will not drive with
24
Lauren in the car after drinking because he does not believe there is anything wrong with
25
26 this. It is about his power, not about good parenting to him.
27 Andy is extremely racist and sexist. He talks constantly about how women are
28
lying, manipulative bitches. He has told me over and over again, that women don't
29
belong in politics, and how awful they are to work with. He says all they do is call in

being hit. I'm assuming it was the woman, as we heard her start crying, then the man
8
9 slammed out of the house and got in his vehicle and left. I said "Oh my god, I think he
10 just hit her." Andy turned towards me, with a very nasty look on his face and said, "she's
11
a raving bitch, she probably deserved it."
12
13 During our marriage Andy did not take responsibility for child care and rearing
14 duties in fact he was rarely home. A normal weekly routine in our house was this: Andy
15
would get up at 5:00 a.m. and go to her father's house for breakfast then to the Elks club
16
for a steam and shower and off to work by 7:00 a.m. For every lunch break he would go
17
18 back to the Elks club for a "workout and steam." When he got off work he would go
19
back to the Elks club for another steam bath and swim. He would come home for dinner
20
and then go back to the Elks club in the evening. On Saturdays he would get up at 6:00
21
22 a.m. and leave to go lay clean carpets with his father. Often he would work on Sundays
23 also. If he did not work on Sundays he made several trips to the Elks club. In short, he
24
was rarely home. If he was home he was mowing our lawn or washing the cars. He was
25
26 not spending time with our daughter. If he was in the house he wanted to be talking to
27 me, not playing with the baby. Once she got old enough to sit up he would prop her in
28
front of the TV to watch a video rather than play with her himself. He has almost no
29
tolerance for her crying and I am fearful of what he would do if he had her alone and she

1 would not stop crying. Andy cannot tolerate any type of mess and having her toys all
2
over the floor drove him crazy. While we were living together I was able to be the buffer
3
for these shortcomings but I am very concerned about what he might do when or if he is
4
5 taking care of Lauren alone. I am very fearful that if she had a tantrum or cried for more
6 than a few minutes he would strike or shake her or worse. He has told me over and over
7
that the sound of her crying "hurts his ears." I have witnessed first hand how agitated he
8
9 gets when she cries too long.
10 I am very concerned that unless and until Andy voluntarily takes honest
11
responsibility for his attitudes and actions, he poses a risk to our very young daughter. I
12
13 do not want to keep her from him or he from her but I have also witnessed a spiraling
14 cycle of abuse in his life, including injury causing physical violence in our relationship
15
on multiple occasions. I see no evidence that he has changed. He is doing everything in
16
his power to make this as hard as he can for me, which in turn harms our daughter.
17
18 I do not believe he is engaging in any meaningful domestic violence treatment.
19
do not believe he is in compliance with his criminal sentence in that regard either. He
20
claims to be in treatment but no intake or assessment records have been seen. For our
21
22 daughter's sake he needs to learn how much of a negative influence his sexist, racist and
10 been cranky and out of sorts since this every other day visitation started. Most cays when
11
Andy returns her at 6:30 p.m. she is asleep (not her naptime) which throws off her routine
12
and makes it very difficult to get her back to sleep on her normal schedule. It is clear to
13
14 me that he is not playing with her while he has her but is instead, letting her fall asleep.
15
I would suggest that we opt for 2 or 3 visits per week with one or two during the week to
16
be from 3:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. I would ask that a real effort be made to not just let
17
18 Lauren sleep but to interact with her during that time. The third visit could be on the
19 weekend and for up to four hours.
20
CONCLUSION
21
22 On November I, 2005 the court appointed Bridgett Llewellyn as the Guardian Ad
23 Litem and ordered us to return to this court for a review on Dec. 6, 2005. Ms. Llewellyn
24
was on a vacation for two weeks during that time and only returned on Nov. 28'h. It is
25
26 my understanding that she will not have any interim report, as she has not yet been able
I wo\lld ask that the issue of Andy's visitation be continued for an additional 8
1
2 weeks to allow Ms. Llewellyn the time necessary to conduct her investigation. That
3 Andy be required to have a DV assessment with Family Services in Seattle. If he is in
4
treatment I have no objection to the continuation of bis visitation, supervised by his
5
6 mother as I have outlined above.
7 . I am begging this court to enter an Order for Protection as requested in J.nY
8
Petition for Proteetion. I am terrified on Andy. 1 believe he still wants to control me and
9
10 that he will continue to abuse if he is siven the ch:mce. l undt!ll"Stand tl1Jlt any Protection
11 Order would make allowances for the Parenting Plan in our family law case.

I have known and worked with Andrew Rife for the past four years. Through this
working relationship I discovered that Andy played soccer for SPU and I asked him to
come run a coaching clinic for my Snohomish United select team.
Andy helped on multiple occasions; he was always friendly, helpful, fun and encouraging
with my players. He started helping me when the girls were 10 and continued through
their U-12 year. Andy stopped helping me only once his wife became pregnant and his
daughter Lauren was born, he wanted to spend more time with his family.
Andy was never disrespectful and never displayed any sexual innuendos toward my
players or any fellow female co-workers. While working with Andy, I always found him
fun, yet professional and easy to work with.
If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact me.

I've had the pleasure of knowing Andy Rife and his family for nearly 20 yeais. I've always admired the
Rife family for their strong work ethic, commibnent to family and their ability to enjoy the simplicity of
togetherness.
Andy is one of the people in my life that I have always adored. He has never been anything but kind,
gentle and devoted to his family. He loves his child more than anything in this world and is committed to
her safety and well being. All Andy has ever wanted is to provide his own family with the same caring and
loving environment that he was fortunate enough to have as a child
I have never witnessed violent behavior with Andy. I have never seen Andy abuse alcohol or drugs. I have
never felt threatened or vulnerable in his company.

SUPPLEMENTAL DECLARATION OF
Jennifer Rae Rife ANDREW SCOTT RIFE
11 Respondent.
12 I, ANDREW SCOTT RIFE, declare under penalty of perjury of the laws of the State of
Washington, that the following is true and correct.
I am the Petitioner in this matter. I make this declaration to respond to my estranged wife's
Supplemental Declaration.
CREDIBILITY
My wife has taken a few true facts, then embellished them to the point that they convey a
false impression. Her statements are not to be believed.
One Example: I do work out at the gym at the Elks club. Reading my wife's supplemental
declaration, she would have the court believe that I am at the Elk's club four times each day
during the work week and frequently on the weekends, in addition to my work with my
father and spending vast quantities of time (and money) at Buck's American Cafe, where
I get into fights. I do work out at the Elks club. The frequency is an embellishment. The
story about Buck's American Cafe is false, as I did spend time there before I met her, but
hardly since. I have never been in fights as she falsely claims, at Buck's or any other place.
CHEMICAL DEPENDENCY
Jennifer attempts to make this case be simply about domestic violence. She ignores her
own chemical dependency and her own aggressive behavior that she uses to facilitate her
ongoing chemical abuse. I am in a state certified domestic violence treatment program, and
I do not mean to minimize my own problems. I do mean to tell the court that I am not the

~--------------------- --
1 sole owner of problems. Jennifer's chemical dependency and her contribution to the
problems that lead us to this divorce need to be recognized and addressed also.
2
Jennifer was in treatment for chemical dependency when she was in high school. She was
3 an unpleasant aggressive person when drunk even then. See declaration of Kim Drake.
4 Jennifer spent 60 days in Edgewood, a Nanaimo BC addiction hospital. She was there
because she needed to be. She was a chemically dependent person. My own fault was in
5 not recognizing the significance of her recent treatment when I met her. While there are
alcoholics in my family, the ones I know are recovering, not continuing to abuse. For
6 example, I have an uncle who is an alcoholic, but has 20 years' sobriety to his credit. I
have never personally lived with an active alcoholic before Jennifer. She has been using
7 alcohol throughout the time I have known her. Her incidents of rage generally are the
times she is drinking. She does not admit her daily drinking is simply relapse.
8
Jennifer tries to make me into a drunk. In my 20's I did frequent Buck's American cafe.,
9 but never 4-6 days a week as she claims, now only occasionally visiting there. As I grew
out of my 20's I grew out of spending time and money in the bar. I did not substitute any
10 other bar, I just found other things to do. I have never missed work due to a hangover or
other effects of drinking. Please refer to the declaration of Robert McManis I have never
11 been an any bar room brawl. I have never been in a fist fight since high school. Buck's
American Cafe does have an Italian beer that I like, Peroni. I never left Buck's American
12 Cafe intoxicated. Their staff did not follow me home or anywhere else after closing. Please
see declaration of Jeff Hegland.
13
Jennifer misses the most basic point: She is an alcoholic in relapse. I am not an alcoholic
14 at all. I presently do not drink, having recognized that alcohol consumption contributed to
the breakdown of our marriage and our current problems. Jennifer continues to drink. She
15 says that "I have no problem abstaining from alcohol but I do not believe it is a problem in
my life. I took my treatment very seriously." What she does not do is explain why she
16 continues to drink.
17 Jennifer is not content to let this divorce be between us. She makes comments about other
members of my family. My father does drink, but is not an alcoholic. Jennifer dislikes him.
18 He is no recluse. He does not drink on the job, nor in the car, and I never came home from
working with him with a beer in my hand. Please refer to the declaration of my father, Jim
19 Rife.
20 As to the request for chemical dependency evaluation, I suggest that the GAL be given
explicit authority to require either or both of us to go through any evaluation she deems
21 appropriate.
22 4. DOMESTIC VIOLENCE
23 Jennifer again requests that the court require me to enter into her attorney's favorite DV
treatment program. I am in a state certified domestic violence perpetrator's treatment
24 program with Charles Devore. This was begun before the divorce began, and is part of
what I am required to do as a condition of the stay of proceedings in the Everett Municipal
25 Court. There is no reason to require me to change programs. I am submitting a copy of

~---------------------------------
2 The basic fact pattern to our domestic violence was simple. Jennifer would drink,
sometimes I would also. She would get loudly argumentative and enraged. There would
3 be no reasoning with her. We both got loud. Sometimes she would become physically
aggressive. I never initiated physical aggression. I would sometimes grab her to restrain
4 physical violence against me, and I know that I overdid it. In all my previous life I never
had to deal with such a situation, and I dealt with it badly. But I am in a treatment program
5 designed to teach me how to not repeat the mistakes. There is light at the end of my
tunnel.
6
My wife takes an incident where I broke out a window BECAUSE WE WERE LOCKED OUT
7 OF THE HOUSE and makes it into an incident of violence. It was late at night and I did not
want to call a locksmith. I did not use a ladder, I used a brick. There has never been
8 another incident when I intentionally broke a window. I have a friend who works as a
window installer. He came over the next day and replaced the window I had broken. I got
9 a fair amount of teasing about this. The neighbors did call the police. They asked for my
identification to verify that I was the homeowner and left. Jennifer and I both laughed
10 about it.
11 Other incidents she fabricates. There was never an incident when I punched a hole through
the wall. The only hole in the wall of my home is in the kitchen where Jennifer threw a
12 phone at me. That hole is still there.
13 There was no incident when I grabbed her hair or dragged her down the hall. This is
another embellishment. We were in an argument. I did grab her coat, in a misguided
14 attempt to calm her down. I accidentally got some of her hair. I should never have
grabbed her. I did not drag her down the hall or anywhere else.
15
Before Christmas 2004 my brother-in-law, Mike Brunsman, and I went to Toys R Us. On
16 the way home we stopped at Applebee's Grill to pick up dinner and we had one (1) beer.
When we arrived back at Mike and Lisa's home, Jennifer became irate because we had been
17 gone too long. She told me that she and her sister were going to put on their make up an
dgo out and party down and meet some guys. Mike and I tried to explain why were gone
18 as long as we were. Jennifer was busy with her tirade and would not hear about it. The
argument escalated. We both yelled and screamed at each other and grabbed each other's
19 shirts. This argument subsided by the time we got home and we both felt bad about it.
I felt horrible that this happened in front of Lauren.
20
She simply repeats her claim about an incident in the car, which she included in her
21 previous declaration. As I told the court before, she was drunk when we got into the car,
we were arguing. When she started hitting me I did grab her sweatshirt to stop the
22 ongoing assault by her. She did struggle, and there were transitory red marks on her skin,
not abrasions. I had similar transitory red marks. There were no bruises. We were both
23 loud. It was an ugly incident. I did tell her she was behaving stupidly. I did not call her
horrible names. She shouted at me about my family members who do not drink and that
24 I did not get intoxicated with her.
25 Jennifer got no cuts from me. As our relationship neared its end, her behavior got more

1 violent, not less. She tried to be controlling, using her temper as a weapon. She wanted
only to be with her family, not mine, and found fault with my family and friends. When I
2 would attempt to leave during an argument she would tell me that I would never see our
daughter or the dog again. She also shouted at me that I was weak because I did not want
3 to stay and continue an argument with her. When I became more willing to simply leave
during an argument, she called the police. This is exactly what she did with her prior
4 husband, Inga Klenner.
5 My wife falsely claims that I was out of compliance with my domestic violence treatment
program. It is true that the prosecutor erroneously thought I was. I was assessed at Davis
6 and Company. For treatment, however, I started at Summit Counseling. I decided to
change programs because I learned that Summit was not a state certified program. I then
7 commenced treatment in Charles DeVore's program. The prosecutor did not know that I
was in treatment and obtained a No Contact Order without notice to me. When I learned
8 of it I moved out. Over the course of a weekend I found out that Jennifer had moved from
my home, so I returned. Then Jennifer came back. I should have left immediately, but it
9 was late at night and we both were there. At the time things were calm. But the next day
there was a new argument and Jennifer called 911. I got arrested, not for an assault, but
10 for violation of restraining order.
11 5. MONEY
12 Jennifer is right about some things here. I have controlled the money. I have an excellent
credit rating. I own my own home and I pay my bills on time. Jennifer just could not
13 handle the day-to-day responsibilities of handling money. When I met her she was in
bankruptcy. I provided money to pay off an arrearage on her condominium to prevent
14 foreclosure. I paid $3200 to the Luke and Castille law firm. Jennfer had a 1999 BMW she
was about to lose. She had me take it to the PUD credit union to turn it in because she was
15 too embarrassed to do it herself. She did not make her payments on her Chapter 13
bankruptcy, and eventually rolled it into a Chapter 7 to clear the debt. She over-drafted
16 several times in her business checking account and maxed out the family credit card. So
I took over the money.
17
6. PARENTING ISSUES
18
Jennifer does not know our daughter. My own opinion is that any crankiness that Jennifer
19 sees is likely a result of our daughter wanting to spend more time with me and missing me
since the present legal situation has caused a reduction of our time together.
20
Our daughter is sleepy when I deliver her. Taking her for a drive is nearly certain to cause
21 her to fall asleep. But our visits are too short for much sleeping. She is awake as we play
together and speak in languages other than English, just like most all one-year-olds and
22 their parents.
23 I have frequently taken our daughter for walks in the neighborhood. Please see
declarations of Mary and Josh Krzysiak and Shelly Pattison.
24
Jennifer complains about my dangerous driving, claiming road rage. This is fabrication. I
25 have witnessed her driving while displaying her middle finger to people she was tailgating,

1 and saying the most outrageous foul things to and about other drivers. I simply would not
do that.
2
I attended a conservative Christian university, and I am comfortable in a conservative
3 Christian environment.
4 Jennifer is correct that I am not a social liberal. However, that is a far cry from being an
intolerant bigot. I neither seek nor avoid interactions with people who are different from
5 me. I do not care whether a person I may meet may be of a different gender, gender
preference or ethnicity than me. If I meet someone I like, then I may have a friend. If I
6 meet someone I do not like, then I may not have a friend. But there is not any filter that
screens people in or out based on gender, sexuality or race. That would be as irrational as
7 filtering people based on whether they might be left handed.
8 One of my college roommates was African American. We got along great. I attended
college on a soccer scholarship. Many of my college teammates were from other countries
9 or of other ethnicities, which presented no difficulties at all. I played for the university all
four years. I loved the game and the people.
10
I am presently working as a systems designer in the engineering section of the PUD. Many
11 of the people I work with are of other ethnicities, which means nothing. The issue there
is not whether any particular worker celebrates or decries diversity, but whether each of us
12 can do our assigned job and how well we work together.
13 Likewise, I have had acquaintances and coaches who were homosexual. Again, it is not an
issue. I do not seek out associations with homosexuals, but I do not avoid associations with
14 homosexuals, either.
15 Jennifer just flat lies when she claims that I refer to women in disparaging negative terms.
I have coached girls soccer, without any sexual inuendo or problem. I work with women
16 all the time, without problem. Please refer to the declaration of J. Renae Pauls. Please also
refer to the declarations of Stephanie Sears and Shelly Pattison.

I would like to take this opportunity to say what my personal observations of Andy are
here at work; he has been that of a responsible, ambitious, pleasant, out going, hard
working individual, and most importantly a loving father and husband.
This situation/spit was a total surprise to me because Andy is so dedicated and appeared
to strive to provide not only love to his family but a wonderful home.
Thank You

We have received Mrs. Rife's cashier's check for $278.10, thank you. This should
conclude the exchange of cashier's checks for small items due between the parties. It is
nice to have one problem resolved.
Unfortunately, not all problems are resolved as a new one has arisen. You will recall
that your letters have included a listing of personalty Mrs. Rife desired to take with her at
the time of vacating Mr. Rife's home. Mr. Rife authorized me to agree to every item she
requested, without exception, and I communicated that position to you.
Last Saturday Mr. Rife regained possession of his home. Before he entered the
dwelling the home was inspected and photographed by private investigator Michael
Schoonover (425 259 4595) to document the condition at the time Mrs. Rife vacated.
Thereafter, Mr. Rife entered his home. He found that there are several items missing.
Please have them returned at once. These items are:
Gas BBQ
Shop vacuum
De Walt drill
The bathroom mirror
Wall mounted calendar and telephone
Pot rack
At the present time Mr. Rife is willing to assume that perhaps Mrs. Rife's assistants
were overenthusiastic in their assistance. But none of the foregoing items were listed in
your letters. Mrs. Rife's unilateral action in taking these non-agreed items was improper.
The gas barbeque is not even paid for. The shop-vac was Mr. Rife's from before the
marriage. The DeWalt drill was a birthday present to Mr. Rife from Mrs. Rife's parents.
The bathroom mirror, wall mounted calendar and phone and the pot rack were all attached
to the house with screws and should have been left there. At the time they were taken
Jan Dyer
November 23, 2005
Page 2
they were realty or fixtures, but not personalty. None of them should have been taken.
All should be returned.
Return of these items likely can best be accomplished by a person having a pickup
truck. Mr. Rife's father or uncle can do the job in the next few days. Please have Mrs. Rife
call Charles Rife (425 438 9373) or Michael Rife (425 508 6813) to arrange pick up. These
individuals are Mr. Rife's uncles. Mr. Rife tells me that these individuals may have met Mrs.
Rife, but that there has not been frequent contact with them, and he expects that they
should be unobjectionable for drayage service.

11
Petitioner,
12 and RESPONSE TO PETITIONER'S
MOTION FOR A PROTECTIVE
13 ORDER RE DISCOVERY
JENNIFER R. RIFE,
14 Respondent.
15
Into court comes Jennifer Rife who, through her undersigned attorney,
16
respectfully request that this court deny the Petitioner's request for a Protective Order
17
preventing her from discovering information relating to Andrew Rife's participation in a
·1a
Domestic Violence Treatment Program. The request is based on the following:
19
20
I. The Motion for a Protective Order was not served in a timely fashion. The
21
motion was delivered to counsel for Respondent on Feb. 13· 2006 for a
22 hearing on Feb. 23, 2006. It also contains no declaration to support the
23 motion.
24 2. This matter is noted on the Commissioner's Domestic Motion Calendar.
25 According to SCLCR 7(2)(1), discovery motions are to be held on the Court
26 Commissioner Civil Calendar, not the Domestic Motion Calendar.

(206) 343.1szy
1 3. The information sought is material to the Respondent's case and should be
2 released.
3 a. There is currently a temporary Domestic Violence Protection Order as
4 well as a Criminal No Contact Order stemming from Mr. Rife's criminal
5 domestic violence charges in Everett Municipal Court. See attached
6 Exhibit A.
12 d. Mr. Rife has apparently now enrolled in Mr. DeVores Domestic Violence
13 Treatment Program.
14
e. The information sought has already been provided to the Guardian Ad
15
Litem in this matter and she has shared that same information with the
Respondent and moving party.
16
f. The information sought has already been provided to the below signed
17
counsel. On Monday, February 13, 2006, the same day we received
18
Petitioner's motion for a Protective Order, we also received a copy of Mr.
19
Rife's file from Mr. Devore. Mr. Devore even included a copy of Mr.
20
Rife's motion with his file, so he appears to have been aware of Mr. Rife's
21
request that the information not be released.
22
4. Mr. Rife has refused to sign any releases, even releases that would allow his
23
treatment provider to, "provide the victim with periodic reports about the
24
perpetrator's participation in the program" WAC 388-60-0145 (1) and (2), a
25
releases that allows the treatment program to, "provide relevant information
26
regarding the participant to each of the following entities: Lawyers," WAC
27
388-60-0145 (4)(a) or a release that allows the treatment agency to "notify any
28
person whose safety appears to be at risk due to the participant's potential for
29
violence and lethality," WAC 388-60-0145 (5).

FOR A PROTECTIVE ORDER Dyer & Primont
RE DISCOVERY 503 Twelfth Ave. E

(206) 343-1528
1 5. Confidential communications are not outside the scope of Civil Rules 26
2 through 37.
3 6. Counsel for Mr. Rife has refused to confer in good faith, and in fact has made
4 no effort to confer with counsel regarding this discovery, as required by
5 CR26(i), "Any motion seeking an order to compel discovery or obtain
6 protection shall include counsel's certification that the conference
7 requirements of this rule have been met." No such conference has ever taken
8 place and counsel for Mr. Rife attaches no such certification to his motion.
9 7. Mr. De Vore will certainly be called as a witness at trial. The respondent and
10 moving party will definitely be calling him as a witness at trial and we would
11 also expect that Mr. Rife would be calling him as a witness at trial.
12 8. We are asking that the court deny and award Ms. Rife $1,500.00.00 in
13 attorney fees and sanctions for Mr. Rife's failure to note this motion timely
14 and correctly, for their failure to confer with counsel prior to bringing this
15 motion and for their refusal to sign releases allowing information required by
the Washington Administrative Code to be released to the relevant parties.
16
This motion for a protective order is without merit.
17
Respectfully submitted this l 71h day of February 2006.

20
21
22
23 I have read the foregoing response t for a protective order.

Thank you for your recent inquiry concerning discovery. Mr. Rife has provided draft answers
to the interrogatories and the requests for production propounded. Upon reviewing them, I notice
a few answers appeared to miss the question asked and I believe a few more documents need to
be acquired. I expect to meet with Mr. Rife on this subject Monday, June 5. I would expect him to
complete his supplementation of responses by the end of that week and to provide the discovery
responses to you approximately June 12.

It has now been over one year since Andy was ordered to enter into and complete a DY treatment
2 program. He has burned through three separate programs and has yet to finish the first phase.
3 The GAL, in her report, made it clear that Andy needed to immerse himself in Mr. Todd's
treatment program so that he could make changes that would allow him to be a functioning and
4 healthy father for our child. It is clear that he has no intention of immersing himself in any
treatment program. In his mind it is all still my fault and he wants nothing more than to get back
5 at me. That kind of attitude is frightening. It is even more frightening given the fact that he has
6 been through three treatment programs and he is still blaming his victim.
7 His visitation with our daughter has been daytime only and supervised by his mother. While I
like his mother and do not want to cause any problems with her I do not feel that she is an
8
appropriate supervisor under the circumstances. Andy has made it abundantly clear that he will
9 do whatever he wants and his mother is equally clear that she is afraid of him and will not cross
him. I hope that I can always keep a good relationship with Andy's mom because she is
10 important to our daughter but I don't think it is fair to make her continue to supervise Andy's
11 time with Lauren given that he continues to blame me for his abuse. We need a professional
supervisor that will actually keep notes and direct Andy when he is not appropriate.
12
Our trial is set for August 21, 2006 and I am very concerned that we are so close yet Andy is still
13 not making any progress in treatment. I am asking that professional supervision continue until
14 the trial or until Andy can prove that he is in an acceptable treatment program and making
satisfactory progress, whichever comes first.
15
I am attaching my prior declarations that outline the history of abuse in more detail so that you
16
can see that I am talking about a very violent man who show no signs that he has changed.
17
With Andy not in treatment and only being supervised by his mother I am very concerned for our
18 daughter's safety (both emotional and physical) while in his care. His time must be
19 professionally supervised or suspended all together.
I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the state of Washington that the foregoing is true and

I, Andrew Rife, declare under penalty of perjury of the laws of the state of
13 ashington, that the following is true and correct.
18
There is no order of the superior court requiring me to engage in any
19 counseling or treatment. My wife has filed a motion seeking to enforce a
nonexistent requirement. MY only requirements for counseling or treatment
20 are in the Everett Municipal court. I am in compliance with the requirements
of that court.

1was charged with Assault 4 <DVl in May 2005. That matter was resolved by a
22 stay of Proceedings. At the end of September 2005 I was charged with
Violation of Restraining Order and that matter was resolved by being
23 combined in the same Stay of Proceedings with the prior matter.
24 There are two superior court files, the divorce and a companion ov case.
There is no order in either file mandating any treatment or counseling.

JENNIFER'S FICTION
1have not had occasion to communicate with Jennifer Rife at all since at least
October 1, 2005. There has not been a word between us, not a note, not a
glance. Her declaration is filled with statements of my attitudes and activities
and statements that necessarily post-date October 1, 2005. She states as facts
things she could not know. And she is wrong. Her statements are false. Her
declaration is the purest of fiction.
A BRIEF FACTUAL HISTORY
Jennifer Rife and I were involved in a domestic assault in May 2005. At the
time I was arrested. The Everett Municipal court entered a no contact order
against me. 1resided with my father instead of in my own home until mid-
June 2005 when Jennifer and I jointly requested that the Everett Municipal
court terminate the no contact order. After the no contact order was
terminated I moved back to my own home with my wife and daughter.
My DV assault case was resolved by a stay of proceedings. Essentially, I am
required to obtain Domestic Violence Perpetrators Treatment and maintain
good behavior for two years and the charge will be dismissed.
My Treatment History
1have been continuously involved in therapy. Jennifer attempts to mislead
the court by claiming 1quit treatment. I have changed treatment providers
more than I would have wished, but have done so for good reasons.
Davis and co.
I was evaluated by Davis and company for my amenability to treatment. I
started their program but quickly became disillusioned with it. When I
commenced attending group sessions, the quality of the program seemed to
be less than it appeared when I was being evaluated. This was about the time
the business was sold by its founder to new owners. Perhaps that had
something to do with the changed atmosphere there. I sought out a
different program.
summit counseling
1returned to summit counseling, where Jennifer and 1had gone for marriage
counseling. I commenced a program there, attending in August and
September, 2005, time when Jennifer falsely claims I was not in any treatment
program. I but learned that summit's program was not state certified, and
therefore could not satisfy the Everett Municipal court. Going to summit
counseling was a mistake on my part. I recognized that I needed to transfer
to a state certified program.
Charles Devore

1604 Hewitt Ave.
Declaration of Andrew Rife Everett WA 98201
Page 2 425 259-4147 FAX 259 7081
1 At that point I again sought out a program. I happened to get a referral to
Charles Devore. He does have a state certified program. I commenced his
2 program on October 12, 2005.
3 All seemed well with Charles Devore and his program. I was happy and
enthused to be attending with him. Jennifer and her attorney Jan over
4 objected to his manner of conducting his business as he utilizes individual
sessions rather than group sessions'. Because of their objections I inquired
5 and learned that under WAC 388-60-0075 2 group sessions are the norm, but
clinicians have the ability to determine that some individuals should be seen
6 in individual sessions instead. Everett Municipal court Probation Department
was satisfied with my participation in this treatment program. I completed
7 phase 1 in this program.
8 Even though there was no requirement of any treatment program in my
divorce or in the companion ov action, Jennifer Rife and Jan over complained
9 frequently about the program with Charles Devore. They complained to
Bridget Llewellyn. She eventually recommended that I transfer to Phoenix
10 counseling male Todd> or Options man Reynolds>. Charles Devore
recommended to me that I should transfer to one of these programs. He was
11 very pragmatic, explaining that the complaints about his program would
never cease and the only way to put this behind me was to acquiesce in
12 changing programs.
13 Dale Todd
14 I commenced Phase II with Dale Todd at Phoenix counseling.
15 When 1 moved to Phoenix counseling the Probation Department scheduled
my case for a review, May s, 2006. A review was scheduled because I had
16 changed providers with out Probation's consent. My attorney explained the
circumstances. Jan Dyer did not appear, but Jennifer Rife appeared at that
17 hearing and handed forward to Judge Odell a letter from Jan Dyer in which
she argued that I should not get credit for the time I had spent with Charles
18 Devore. Judge Odell's oral comment at the time was that he wanted me to
get credit for what I had done.
19
By the time of Judge Odell's ruling on May s I had already commenced the
20 program with Dale Todd. There was controversy among the attorneys and
the GAL about whether I had to start at the first day of Phase 1 or if I should
21
22 1
Interestingly, the complaint has always been that DeVore emphasizes individual therapy rather than
group therapy. The complain is with DeVore's methods. There has never been a complaint about the quality of the
23 treatment he provides.
2
24 WAC 388-60-0075 provides in part:
(1) All participants must attend consecutive, weekly group treatment sessions. A F.rogram may develop
policies which allow excused absences to be made up with the program director's approva .
25 Exception: Another type of intervention may be approved for certain documented clinical reasons, such as
psychosis or other conditions that make the individual not amenable to treatment in a group setting.

1 be given credit for the time 1had spent with Devore. Since the only person
I need to satisfy is the judge who ordered me into the program, we returned
2 to Judge Odell for resolution 3• His order was to allow me credit for the time
I was in that program.
3
When Dale Todd received a copy of Judge Odell's ruling he contemplated
4 what to do. He determined that this case had enough headaches in it that he
no longer wished to be involved in it. He terminated my involvement in his
5 program, noting that I was in compliance with program requirements at the
time of termination.

Recent Events
7
On June 23, 2006 Everett Municipal court Probation called me in for a Risk
8 Assessment on the afternoon of June 30, 2006. I participated in that Risk
Assessment, of course. I expect the Probation Department to make a
9 recommendation to the court. I anticipate the court to take action consistent
with Probation's recommendation. And I expect to comply with whatever
10 orders may be entered.
11 5. THE INTECRITY OF THE MUNICIPAL COURT
12 The standard Domestic Violence Perpetrator's Treatment program involves 32
sessions. I have completed 35 sessions. Jennifer wants the court to believe
13 that I have not completed Phase I. She necessarily is asking this court to
determine that Judge Odell made an erroneous determination, and is asking
14 this court to substitute her judgement for his.
15 I completed Phase I with Charles Devore. Jennifer disagrees with Judge Odell's
decision that I should receive credit for the sessions I attended. But she
16 cannot avoid that it was Judge Odell's decision to make. His decision has not
been appealed. She simply chooses to make assertions contrary to his
17 decision.
18 6. MY ATTITUDES
19 Jennifer tries to tell the court what my present attitudes are. She has no way
of knowing how I think. The only thing she could do to find out would be to
20 review the monthly compliance reports filed with the Municipal court. I
believe copies have been sent to her attorney.
21
I have better things to do than plot how to "get back at" Jennifer. Twiddling
22
23 3
Jennifer complains that notice of the hearing was not given to her or to the GAL. Neither of them is a
party to the Everett Municipal Court cases and would not have been heard in any event. The prosecutor had notice
24 of the hearing. But more importantly, the Everett Municipal Court orders do not purport to have any effect in the
Superior Court's proceedings. The Superior Court has not directed any treatment at all. If Jennifer or her attorney
25 had wanted the Superior Court to order some particular treatment program, they could have filed an appropriate
motion, but they did not.

my thumbs would be more profitable than trying to "get back at" her. Why
she would make the statement escapes me. Why she would think she knows
any current facts about me to make the statement escapes me as well. She
invents her assertion that I am somehow still blaming my victim. I have no
problem accepting responsibility for my own actions. I have nobody to blame
but myself for my own conduct. Jennifer's statement that I continue to
blame her is just her own statement, not a reflection of my attitudes.
MY MOTHER
MY mother, Wendy Rife, has had the spine to stand up to Jennifer. Perhaps
that is why Jennifer now wants to remove her from the visitation. Last
Saturday Jennifer called my mother demanding that my visit end just 1s
minutes into the visit. MY mother ordinarily assists with the exchange of the
child at the end of the visits. Jennifer demanded immediate return. we
returned Lauren at the regular time, without incident.
My mother has been the visitation supervisor. The only complaint we have
received was that Lauren came home over tired on one occasion. There is no
indication that there has been any conduct during the visits that would
warrant any concern about Lauren's safety, either physical or emotional.
Jennifer continues to make her wild claims she has no factual basis for. She
just flat lies when she claims that I have made it "abundantly clear" that I will
do whatever I want to. I have complied with the treatment requirements of
the Municipal court and the visitation requirements of the superior court. I
have never contemplated anything else.
Jennifer's claim that my mother is afraid of me is simply absurd. It is another
flat lie.
MY OPINIONS
Trial is approaching. It is a tense time for any litigant. But I have been doing
what I am supposed to do. And there has been no problem with the visits.
And there will not be a problem with the visits. one of the reasons I have
supervised visitation is that Jennifer and her attorney made wild and
exaggerated claims at the time of temporary orders. I think this motion is not
related to any new concern about our daughter, nor about my mother or me,
but is an expression of anger. The court should not entertain a motion to
change the conditions of visitation.

II. Declaration
24
Andrew Rife has been arrested twice in the last year on DV charges. The first
25
arrest was for brutally assaulting me while we were married. Although he was arrested
26
and a no contact order was issued he moved back in with us as soon as he got out of
27
jail. There was a long history of physical abuse as well as continued emotional and
28
verbal abuse. I was very afraid of him at that time and still hoping that he would get
29
help.

1 He was ordered to get into treatment at that time and he did but quickly quit.
2 When the prosecutor found out he had dropped out of treatment they filed more
3 charges against him for violating the No Contact Order. He was not in any treatment
.4 program from August 2005 to November 2005. Then he enrolled in a treatment
5 program at with Chuck Devore. During that time it was clear that he was gaining zero
6 insight into his issues with abuse and in fact continued to blame it all on me. Ultimately
7 the state of Washington began investigating Mr. Devore for running a program that
8 does not adhere to the WAC provisions for DV treatment.
9 When our GAL found out that Mr. DeVore's program did not meet the WAC
10 requirements she recommended that Andy start in a program with Dale Todd. Andy did
11 that but was demanding that he be given credit for Phase I treatment, which, according
12 to the WAC's, is supposed to be weekly group sessions. Both the GAL and Dale Todd
13 consulted with the state enforcement agency and were informed that Phase I must be
14 in group sessions and that since Mr. Rife had not done group sessions he could not get
15 credit for them. Mr. Todd, the GAL and me all thought the issue was resolved but
~7
I was informed last week that Mr. Todd was terminating Andy from his program
18
because Andy went to the Everett Municipal Court (where is criminal case is) and
without Notice to me or to the GAL, convinced a judge there that he should get "group"
19
credit for his "non-group" participation. Both Mr. Todd's and the GAL's letter regarding
20
this issue are attached and incorporated into this motion. The GAL's report is also
21
attached for your reference.
22
It has now been over one year since Andy was ordered to enter into and
23
complete a DV treatment program. He has burned through three separate programs
24
and has yet to finish the first phase. The GAL, in her report, made it clear that Andy
25
needed to immerse himself in Mr. Todd's treatment program so that he could make
26
changes that would allow him to be a functioning and healthy father for our child. It is
27
clear that he has no intention of immersing himself in any treatment program. In his
28
mind it is all still my fault and he wants nothing more than to get back at me. That kind

1 of attitude is frightening. It is even more frightening given the fact that he has been
2 through three treatment programs and he is still blaming his victim.
.3 His visitation with our daughter has been daytime only and supervised by his
4 mother. While I like his mother and do not want to cause any problems with her I do
5 not feel that she is an appropriate supervisor under the circumstances. Andy has made
6 it abundantly clear that he will do whatever he wants and his mother is equally clear that
7 she is afraid of him and will not cross him. I hope that I can always keep a good
8 relationship with Andy's mom because she is important to our daughter but I don't think
9 it is fair to make her continue to supervise Andy's time with Lauren given that he
10 continues to blame me for his abuse. We need a professional supervisor that will
12 Our trial is set for August 21, 2006 and I am very concerned that we are so close
13 yet Andy is still not making any progress in treatment. I am asking that professional
16 detail so that you can see that I am talking about a very violent man who show no signs
18 With Andy not in treatment and only being supervised by his mother I am very
concerned for our daughter's safety (both emotional and physical) while in his care.
19
His time must be professionally supervised or suspended all together.
20
Addendum: This declaration was written earlier and I want to give the court an
21
update which I believe bears heavily on the issue of having Andy's mother as the
22
supervisor. Andy's mother is the person who has been the supervisor of Andy's
23
visitation from the beginning. The exchanges have been at my parent's home because
24
I have asked that my address remain confidential. Sometimes my mother is there for
25
the exchanges, sometimes she is not. Primarily I am the one who is there when Lauren
26
is dropped off and picked up. The exchange is between Wendy Rife (Andy's mom) and
27
myself.

Andy's 111om recently obtained an ex parte restraining order against me, claiming
that I am harassing her. Although I agree that there is a lot of tension between our
families, I have not harassed or threatened her in any way. I am not surprised by this
move however, given the history of Andy and his family. In the past Andy has tried to
have me arrested on DV charges and has also sought a protection order against me.
The police did not believe him when he tried to have me arrested and arrested him
instead. His requests for a protection order have been denied. It is crystal clear to me
that Andy and or his family wants desperately to have something "against" me when we
· come to trial. I believe his mother's petition for a restraining/antiharrassment order is
just such an attempt.
The problem is, Wendy's order that I not contact her in any way makes visitation
impossible. I note that.in her petition she asked that visitation exchanges be excluded
from the no contact provision but the temporary order makes no mention of any
exception to the no contact provision. If I were to take my daughter or pick my daughter
up from visitation I would be in violation of the order that Wendy obtained. I would
undoubtedly be arrested and then Andy could say, "See, she was also arrested on a DV
charge."
It is very sad that this whole situation has degenerated to this. I recognize that I
have issues that I need to deal with and have been consistently working with a
counselor and have followed all recommendations of the GAL and my own counselor.
Andy, on the other hand, has been through three treatment plans and has not yet even
finished Phase One of any of them. He is currently not in any treatment program,
contrary to the recommendations of the GAL in our case.

the foregoing is true and correct. Signed at . M-t2)i&014../I 4)

II. DECLARATION
7
Jennifer Rae Rife should be held in contempt for the following reasons:
8
Failure to comply with the parenting plan as follows: By denying residential time on
July 8, 2006.
9
This order was violated in the following manner:
10
11 Jennifer Rife denied my residential time on Saturday, July 8, 2006. My daughter was
scheduled to be with me from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Jennifer Rife was to deliver her to my
12 front door. She refused to do so. Requests for make up time have not been answered.
13 Under the temporary parenting arrangement we have a "delivering parent" rule: Jennifer Rife
is responsible to deliver our daughter to me at my residence at the commencement of my
14 residential time, then I am responsible to deliver our daughter to her at the commencement
of her residential time. Jennifer never comes to my home, instead she has a member of her
15 family handle the delivery for her. I have never been told where Jennifer resides and she has
me deliver to her parents' home. The delivery is made to other family members (her mother
16 carol Holland, her father Steve Holland, her sister Lisa Brunsman, her brother-in-law Michael
Brunsman) as Jennifer is generally not visible.
17
The most common event for transfer of my daughter is for carol Holland to deliver to my
18 mother Wendy Rife at my front door, then for my mother to deliver to carol Holland at the
end of the visit.
19
On July 6, 2006 my lawyer received a fax from opposing counsel that he would appear on
20 July 7, 2006 in ex parte department to request an immediate order which would either
require my visitation with my daughter to be professionally supervised or be suspended
21 altogether.
22 On July 7, 2006 my mother obtained an order of protection from unlawful harassment against
Jennifer Rife in the Everett District Court, case U06-215, copy attached. That order restrains
23 her from surveillance of my mother, from making any attempts to contact her or from being
within 300 feet of my mother's residence. That order was served on Jennifer Rife at the
24 courthouse five to ten minutes before the hearing set by Mr. Primont commenced.

1 Jennifer appeared at the July 7 hearing, along with her sister and her lawyer, Michael
Primont. I was there with my attorney Carl J. Gaul. Commissioner Stewart heard argument.
2 During the argument Mr. Primont mentioned the unlawful harassment order obtained by my
mother. Commissioner Stewart denied immediate relief and he denied the requested order to
3 show cause, leaving the existing residential time arrangement in place without change.
4 I left the courthouse while a handwritten order was being prepared. An order was signed by
Commissioner Stewart.
5
Mr. Primont told my lawyer in the presence of the GAL that the next day's visit (Saturday, July
6 8, 2006) would not occur. Ms. Llewellyn volunteered to handle the exchange of the child
herself. Both Jennifer and her sister Lisa had declined her offer.
7
On the afternoon of July 7, 2006 my attorney sent a letter to Mr. Primont, copy attached. In
a it he recounted the day's events and informed him that I would be ready to receive my child
on Saturday morning at 11:00 a.m., exactiy as the court's orders mandate.
9
On Saturday July 7, 2006 Lauren was not delivered. There was no telephone call or other
10 communication from Jennifer Rife or anyone on her behalf.
11 Jennifer Rife simply refused to obey the court's order. She came to court with a request and
the court denied that request. Then she granted herself the relief the court had just denied.
12
Another visit was scheduled for Monday, July 10, 2006 at 5:00 p.m. My attorney sent a letter
13 to Mr. Primont, copy attached. Later in the day Ms. Llewellyn also wrote, copy attached.
Again, there was no telephone call or other communication, but at 5:00 p.m. Jennifer's
14 mother Carol Holland brought my daughter to my front door.
15 Other:
My lawyer's letter of July 10, 2006 invited Mr. Primont and his client to schedule make up
16
time to compensate for the time lost on July 8, 2006. No response has been received to that
invitation.

18
I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the state of Washington that the foregoing is
true and correct.

This Jetter is to confirm today's discussion. Mrs. Rife's motion seeking to restrict Mr. Rife's
residential time with Lauren Rife was denied, and the court did not enter an order to show cause.
Though Mrs. Rife's issues may be argued at a subsequent hearing, as of this afternoon, the present
parenting arrangement remains in effect without change.
In discussions involving you and me and Ms. Llewellyn, your client and her sister were
standing nearby. Mrs. Rife and Mrs. Brunsman were telling Ms. Llewellyn the reasons that
tomorrow's residential time would be denied. After the court had just denied'her motion to modify
the residential schedule, Mrs. Rife was granting herself the relief Commissioner Stewart had denied.
I told you that Mrs. Rife's obligation is to deliver and that Mr. Rife will take the child from
whomever might deliver, even a yellow cab. It was plainly apparent that Mrs. Rife simply will not
allow tomorrow's residential time. At that point I asked you if you would accept service of an Order
to Show Cause to avoid the necessity of demonstrating that Mrs. Rife's address is easily enough
found. You graciously agreed to accept service.
I am waiting for good sense and resourcefulness to save me from preparation of documents
on Monday. Please do discuss with Mrs. Rife her opportunities to simplify rather than complicate this
issue.
Mr. Rife will be at his home, along with Wendy Rife, to receive Lauren from the delivering
person at 11:00 a.m., exactly as the court's orders mandate.

It was not unanticipated that Lauren Rife was not delivered to Mr. Rife's home on July 8, 2006
at 11:00 a.m.
There is another visit scheduled for this afternoon. Please remind Mrs. Rife of her obligation
to deliver the child.
Of course we intend to proceed against Mrs. Rife for her contempt of court for failure to
deliver the child as required. Having two incidents would simply make her defiance of the court's
order more clear. If Mrs. Rife is interested in avoiding the contempt process, she might have you
respond about scheduling make up time to compensate for that denied on Saturday.

4 Jennifer Rife and her attorneys have already lost this motion once. They have not
provided any new or additional basis for the request: they have simply repeated it.
5 In the interim, my daughter has been denied her time with me. Immediately after
the court denied their motion on July 7, Mr. Primont informed my attorney that the
6 scheduled visit on July 8 would not occur. The GAL volunteered to handle the
exchange, but Jennifer Rife refused her, so the July 8 visit did not occur. My
7 daughter was delivered for the following Monday and Wednesday time, but I my
daughter and I have not seen each otfler since. My attorney wrote suggesting
8 methods of resuming the scheduled visitation, but Ms. Dyer has made no response.
The GAL wrote saying that visitation should resume with three different suggestions
9 for methods of exchange of our daughter. She wrote again mandating that
"visitation shall resume", specifying the manner of exchange. Instead, visitation is
10 still being denied.
11 The court should punish misconduct. My wife has again demonstrated her anger.
While she is busy demonstrating her arbitrary power, defying the authority of the
12 court, she is also harming our daughter, and wasting time and money with repeated
motions. Evidently, this is encouraged by her attorney. I really do not mind if they
13 waste their own time and money, but I object to them choosing to waste mine.

11 Petitioner,
12 and DECLARATION OF JENNIER RIFE
IN RESPONSE TO MOTION FOR
13 JENNIFER R. RIFE, CONTEMPT
Respondent
14
15
I am the Respondent named above. I make this declaration under penalty of perjury and
16 based on my own personal knowledge. I am over 18 and otherwise competent to testify.
17 Andy Rife is asking that I be held in contempt because I have not been willing to bring
18 our 22 month old daughter to visitations. Andy's own actions have prevented visitation from
19 taking place, not mine. We have had a pattern of having our mother's help with the transfers and
20 his mother, Wendy Rife, has been the "visitation supervisor." This divorce started in October,
21 after Andy was arrested the second time. All of Andy's visitations are supervised and there is a
22 criminal No Contact Order and a DY Protection Order in Place. On July 7, 2006, Andy and his
23 mother, without notice to us, went to District Court and obtained Protection Orders that prevent
24 my mother from having any contact with Andy and Wendy (the visitation supervisor) from
25 having any contact with me, making visitation, as we have been doing for the last 8 months,
26 impossible. Our responses to those petitions are attached and incorporated herein. My family
27 will no longer have anything to do with the Rife family. We are convinced that they are bent on
28 revenge and that Andy is in complete denial about the effects of his abuse and his abusive
29 attitude, which continues unabated and in fact has only gotten stronger.
30 First I want to make sure that the court understands the history of this case so you

,;
1 understand why I can not send my very young and vulnerable daughter to visitation until we
2 have some safe parenting rules set up and appropriate supervision in place. Every court that has
3 ever looked at this divorce case has agreed quickly that all of Andy's visitation time with our
4 daughter should be supervised and that both she and I should have a protection order against
5 Andy. There is a very good reason for that. During our marriage I learned first hand that Andy
•6 is a very violent husband and father. He brutally physically abused me on several occasions.
7 My prior declarations in that regard are attached and incorporated by this reference.
8 Andy also has shown in the past that he will lie to the police or the court. One of my trial
9 witnesses (trial in this matter is set for August 21, 2006) is the officer that arrested Andy at our
1o home in October 2006. That officer will testify that Andy tried to have me arrested but that the
11 police did not believe the story that he and his brother were telling, (with help from their mother
12 Wendy) and refused to arrest me. Instead they arrested Andy for violation of the criminal no
13 contact order that was issued when he was arrested for assaulting me the prior May.
14 I bring this up because the court needs to understand where we stand in this case at this
15 point. We are less than a month from our trial date. Andy has yet to complete a state certified
16 DV treatment program and maintains that he has already learned every1hing he needs to learn
17 about domestic violence. I am convinced beyond a doubt that, despite clear court rulings
regarding the issue of domestic violence, despite two arrests and mountains of evidence to the
18
contrary, Andy continues to blame everything on me and to want revenge for the fact that I
19
brought his behavior to light. He has been unrelenting in this task during the last 8 months.
20
Andy was arrested for DV Assault against me in May 2006. He was ordered to get into
21
DV Treatment. At that time we were still trying to work on our relationship and the court lifted
22
the criminal no contact order on condition that Andy be in treatment. Andy went to Davis and
23
Company. They did an assessment and he started treatment there. He only went a few times
24
before he quit. He told me that basically he was fine and that he did not like their program. He
25
kept saying it was about me, not him. 1 am attaching a copy of the Davis and Co. assessment
26
from that time. As you can see, Andy was lying to me. Davis and Co. found that he had major
27
issues with domestic violence that needed to be addressed. He just was refusing to deal with
28
them.
29
When the criminal court found out that he was no longer in treatment they put the no
30
contact order back in place. Andy would not leave Lauren and I alone yet his trial date was

1 quickly approaching. It is clear to me in hindsight that Andy was trying to keep me from
2 testifying against him at his trial. He called the police on me when I tried to bring our sick child
3 back home. I did not want to be there but it was Lauren and my home and there was a protection
4 order keeping Andy from being there and we should have been allowed to live there in peace.
5 But, Andy insisted that it was HIS HOME and he had a right to be there. He had complete
6 disregard for our daughter's health or safety and was only bent on revenge. When the police
7 arrived they quickly understood that he and his brother were lying to them and that in fact he was
8 the one that was not supposed to be there.
9 After that I got an attorney and so did Andy. He filed this divorce action. We both
10 brought motions to the court. The court granted my request for a protection order and supervised
11 visitation. The court ordered the appointment of a GAL and ordered that there be an interim
13 GAL.
14 I felt strongly at the time that an emergency assessment was just what we needed. I was
15 very concerned about what seemed to me to be a clear continuing of the vendetta against me and
16
having I 8 month old Lauren in the middle of it. I wanted to have faith in the system and the
professionals in it. I waited for the assessment. It never came. The court, at the first hearing on
17
Nov. I, 2006, had set a review hearing for Dec. 6, 2006. The GAL did not produce any report
18
for that hearing. It was the same story every month. The case bounced along on review with
19
monthly hearings until March when my attorney finally forced the issue. The GAL never did
20
issue any type of interim report. The GAL finally did issue her final report but not until early
21
June of 2006. We agree with her recommendations. They are that Andy should engage in the
22
domestic violence treatment program with Dale Todd (which he has since been dismissed from),
23
upon successful completion of that program he attend the Respectful Parenting program with
24
Family Services, that his visitation should continue to be supervised and that our daughter should
25
reside primarily with me.
26
I agreed with those recommendations. Unfortunately Andy did not. Since she issued her
27
report Andy has been terminated from his third DV Treatment Program. He has made it clear
28
that he has learned what he needed to learn although his behavior has continued unabated. For
29
example Andy makes a point of being in the car when his mother brings Lauren back to my
30
mother's house at the end of visitation. He does not have to be there and frankly he should not

1 be. But he insists on being there and always, always, does something to make transfers strained
2 and difficult. He honks the horn, makes inappropriate comments, makes faces at me through the
3 car window and generally acts stupid. His mother, the alleged supervisor, makes no attempts to
4 stop him. If my mother or I try to talk to her about this she defends Andy to the death. She uses
5 the visitation exchange time to discuss issues about this case or between Andy and I that are
6 inappropriate subjects for the visitation time. I have asked her repeatedly to stop and help us
7 make the exchanges pleasant for Lauren but she insists and pushing the issues during the time we
9 I have been very troubled for months about how it was that Andy continues to be in
10 denial and continues to be abusive yet no one seems willing to stand up to him. I have known
11 since my marriage to Andy that his mother is not a person that can but I hoped she would be
12 willing to put the best interest of her granddaughter before her need to continue to lie for her son.
13 I was wrong. She, and every member of their family, have made it clear to us that we are the
14 enemy. Eight months of supervised visitation and requests by the GAL that Andy really engage
15 in treatment and stop blaming me and where do we find ourselves? We get served with No
Contact Orders. No contact orders that are based on lies, not even half truths. There is nothing
16
intimidating or threatening about any of our actions. Please read our declarations in response to
17
those petitions.
18
On July 7th Andy alleges that he was so threatened by my mother that he needed protection from
19
her. Yet, his allegations stem from October and December of2005 and early June of2006. He
20
felt threatened by her yet he continued to come to her house when his mother would return
21
Lauren. He continued to sit in his truck and make rude comments to her or honk his horn or
22
otherwise act the fool. Yes, it is clear he felt very threatened by her. The same is true as to
23
Wendy. The incident she alleges happened in May. She has the dates wrong, it happened on
24
May 61h, not the 3'd. There was a visitation on the third where Andy made a rude comment to my
25
mother. At the end of the visit I asked Wendy to try to keep Andy from making those types of
26
comments as they make the transfers harder and stressful for everyone, including Lauren. On the
27
next visit transfer, when Andy and Wendy arrived at my parent's home, Wendy insisted on
28
talking to me about the divorce case and I did not want to talk to her. She insisted and demanded
29
to talk to me. She essentially forced her way into my mother's home so that she could confront
30
me about my perceptions of Andy. She even made the statement to me that, "Andy would never

1 hurt me." Andy has physically hurt me on many occasions. I have seen no evidence of any
2 change. She forced her way into my mother's house demanding to speak with me yet she alleges
3 that I somehow was threatening to her.
4 The transfers for visitation have been very difficult. Andy and his mother have made
5 certain of that. But at least they have been consistent. Our little daughter has been a trouper
6 through all of this but it has been hard on her. Her schedule has been very disrupted with this
7 schedule and Andy's refusal to have her take naps when she is with him. I have been very
8 concerned for her. Andy has had eight months of "supervised visitation" and, according to the
9 GAL, continues to need supervision. I agree but I do not believe his mother is an appropriate
10 supervisor. Nor do I feel that any other member of his family is appropriate. They are all in his
11 "camp" and the goal is to discredit me or my family at any costs, not to watch out for the best
13 We were also in court on July 7, 2006 but we were there on notice to Andy and his
14 attorney, unlike their secret trip to District Court on the same day. At that time I was requesting
that Andy's time with Lauren be professionally supervised. The court denied my motion without
15
prejudice because it felt there was no emergency. Well, apparently there was an emergency but
16
not one that Andy was willing to tell the Commissioner about. That same day he and his mother
17
were in District Court telling Andy's Elks Club buddy, who happened to be sitting as a pro tern
18
on the bench that day, that there was such an emergency involving the visitation exchanges that
19
they needed ex parte protection from my mother and me.
20
After I was served with the order stating that I could have no contact with Wendy, my
21
child's visitation supervisor, I filed a motion asking that the court order that Andy's time with
22
Lauren be professionally supervised, as Wendy could clearly no longer fill that roll. That motion
23
is also before this court today. During the week after I was served with Wendy's No Contact
24
Order we continued to attempt to keep visitation going. My mother was able to cover two of the
25
visits for me but was out of town for the weekend visit and so there was no one available or
26
willing to take Lauren to the exchange. Then, my mother was served with Andy's No Contact
27
Order. This was just too much of a shock. It turned out Andy got his order on the 7th at the same
28
time as Wendy got her order against me but, since my mom was out of town, they waited to
29
serve her until later the next week; after she had delivered Lauren twice to Andy's house and

..
1 Andy and Wendy had brought her back to my mom's house twice. How afraid of my mother
.2
·was Andy really?
3 My family and I have thought this over and discussed it at length. We cannot figure out
4
what in the world the Rife' s are thinking but it is clear to us that they will stop at nothing to
attempt to have us arrested or discredited in some way. We are not willing to put ourselves in
5
such a dangerous situation. None of us wishes to be arrested.
6
By their actions in filing these false allegations in District Court and obtaining these
7
"temporary orders" they made further visitation impossible. I have sought the court's direction
8
and have taken a course of action designed to protect Lauren. I know Andy and have been the
9
frequent recipient of his abuse. I know that he is in a very bad place right now and is really
10
wound up into clearing his name and his record. I know he is very angry and I know what he is
11
like when he is angry. I do not want my daughter around that. He has never truly engaged in
12
meaningful treatment and in fact has done everything in his power to not have to engage in
13
meaningful treatment. He has continued to blame me and my family for everything and wants
14
nothing but revenge. This is not a healthy environment for my child to be in and could be
15
potentially very dangerous to her. I do not want to wait until she is injured or emotionally
16
scarred like I did.
17
I am aware that the GAL has advocated for resumption of visits. I want to say clearly
18
that she has done so without talking with me or any member of my family. It is her duty to
19
"investigate the facts" and present an unbiased recommendation. How can she make any
20
recommendations about the resumption of visitation without ever even talking with me? Andy
21
has completely ignored every recommendation of her report. He and his mother brought
22
completely false petitions against my mother and me, making visitation impossible. Without
23
even talking with me she says that I have to bring my daughter to the police station and hand her
24
over to someone other than the person she has been used to being picked up by. I have been
25
raising these issues to the GAL for many months as the supervision and transfers seemed to be
26 getting worse and more tense. She has just ignored me. In fact, the transfer on May 6th (the one
27 that Wendy alleges I threatened her after she forced herself into my mother's home so she could
28 talk to me) was so upsetting to me that I called the GAL immediately; she never even returned
29
30
my call.

and
12 Declaration Carol Holland
13 JENNIFER RIFE,
Res ondent
14
15 My name is Carol Holland. I am Jennifer Rife's mother. I was present when
16 Wendy Rife alleges Jennifer threatened her. I am over 18 and competent to testify. I
13 just what needs to be communicated at the exchanges. This is Lauren's time. If the
14 adults have issues they can talk to each other at different times. But no; Wendy has to
15 start talking to Jenn about non visitation issues. She began insisting that Jenn give her
17
Now, please understand that this is a sore spot issue for Jenn and was not a good
thing for Wendy to talk about or ask Jenn for. Andy has Lauren's social security number
18
and Wendy had no business asking Jenn for it. In the context of the divorce, Andy had
19
refused to communicate with Jenn about how they should file their 2005 taxes and his
20
attorney had rebuffed all attempts by her attorney to get the information or some
21
agreement prior to April 15 1h. What we know is that Andy filed married filing separately
22
and took Lauren as an exemption. He has her social security number. He had no right to
23
unilaterally decide how a community tax return would be filed and how the child
24
deduction would be used. Like I said, this was not a good subject to bring up with Jenn
25
and it was quite upsetting to us all. It only proved to all of us how little Wendy knows
26
about Andy and how ineffective she is as a visitation supervisor.
27
Jenn told Wendy to ask Andy for the social security number but Wendy would not
28
accept that answer. At this point I intervened and explained to Wendy that asking Jenn
29
for this was not a good idea and again requested that she simply get it from Andy and
30
leave these kinds of issues out of the visitation exchanges. There was some further

1
2 discussion between Jen, Wendy and me about the rude comment by Andy earlier in the
3 day. Then they left and we all went back into the house. That is all that happened at the
'4 May 3'd exchange.
5 It was at the May 6'h exchange that the things that Wendy alleges happened on
6 May 3rd actually happened, except not how Wendy describes them. Wendy brought
7 Lauren to the front porch asleep. Jenn was the only one available so she came out on the
8 porch and took the sleeping child. When I walked out to the porch, Jenn and Wendy
9 were talking and Jenn seemed distressed. At this point I intervened and told Jenn to go in
10 and lay Lauren down. I told Wendy and we could meet for coffee and come up with
11 "something fair for everybody." Jenn went inside. Wendy wanted to continue talking to
12 Jenn but I wanted the conversation to end. I again told Wendy that now was not a good
13 time and that we could meet another time to discuss it. Wendy insisted two more times
14 and I said no two more times but Wendy kept insisting that she had to talk to Jenn; she
16 When it became clear she was not going to leave until she talked to Jenn I opened
the door. Wendy went right in past me and started in on Jenn, with Lauren sleeping right
17
next to her. This irritated me. She was not being friendly and she was in my house
18
against my wishes. I got in front of Wendy and stopped her from going any farther. I
19
asked Jenn to come to the entry as Wendy wanted to say something to her. Wendy
20
proceeded to launch into a lively defense of Andy's behavior to Jenn, including saying,
21
"he would never do anything to hurt you." It was very upsetting and such a lie. He has
22
physically abused Jenn on several occasions, I have seen the bruises. I could see that
23
Jenn was very upset and so again I intervened. Jenn turned around and walked back to
24
the couch were Lauren was sleeping. Wendy finally left at my final request. I did meet
25
later in the week with Wendy to discuss things but it has just become crystal clear to me
26
that she is blind to Andy's behaviors and so there is simply no talking to her about these
27
issues. At no time did Wendy say anything about feeling threatened by Jenn.
28
Jenn was upset by Wendy on both May 3rd and May 61h that was clear to see. But
29
at no time did she make any threatening statement or take any action that would seem
30
threatening. Wendy was on my private property to drop off my granddaughter. She was

not invited for any other purpose. She insisted on coming in roy house and when she did
I felt that she was not appropriate in her approach. J was glad when she was gone.
As I said earlier, we have worked hard .. to remain calm and to take things in stride
over this last year but it has been hard. Wendy has never at any time appeared to have
any fear of Jenn or me. Likewise, Andy has never appeared to have any fear of me or
Jenn. Neither of them has ever mentioned being threatened by the fact that I drove by his
father's house in December, although we have discussed the fact that it meant I knew he
was working that day. We have had several dozen more visitations s.ince the o.nes on
May 3rd and 61~ and at no time has Wendy asked that Jenn not be around or made any
issue of feeling afraid of or threatened by Jenn. Likewise, Andy has been around me on
the same dozen or so visitations since the drive by appraisal of his house in early June yet
at no time has he seemed the least bit threatened or afraid of me.
This .is all a ruse to have an edge in the divorce trial. From what I have read this
last year, it is also very typical of abusers who are not ready to stop the abuse. It seems
sad but these are the only reasons I can think of they would go to all of this trouble and
expense. It has made visitation between Andrew and Lauren impossible. It has made our
entire family, me included, completely unwilling to help with visitation exchanges at all.
It has left Jenn feeling very vulnerable and has made her recovery from Andy's abuse
take that much longer and be that much more difficult. He is still abusing her only now
he is using the system to do it.
I was present during the time Wendy was at my home on both May 3ro and May
6111 and at no time did Jenn do auything that would appear threatening in any way towards
Wendy or anyone else.

foregoing is true and correct. Signed and dated this J5 day of July 2006 in Everett,

Jennifer Rife
11 Respondent.
12 I, WENDY RIFE, declare under penalty .of perjury of the laws of the State of
Washington, that the following is true and correct.
13
1. IDENTITY AND BACKCROUND
14
I am Wendy Rife. I am Andrew Rife's mother. Andrew and his wife Jennifer
15 Rife are in the process of a divorce. I make this declaration to explain to the
court why I now need an order for protection from unlawful harassment. .·
16
I have been designated by the Guardian ad Lltem to be one of the persons
17 approved to supervise Andrew's visitation with their one year old daughter.
The routine for visitation is that Jennifer is responsible to deliver the child at
18 Andrew's home. She does this by having a family member do the actual
delivery so there is no contact between Andrew and Jennifer. Ordinarily carol
19 Holland is the person who actually delivers. Andrew is responsible to deliver
Lauren to Jennifer's parents' home. He remains in his car, and I take the baby
20 from the car to the front door to deliver her to Jennifer or one of her family
members. Again, the system is designed to assure that there is no contact
21 between Andrew and Jennifer.
22 Jennifer Rife has a pattern of conduct of calling to shout at me and threaten
me that she will cause Andrew's (and by implication myl time with Lauren to
23 be restricted simply because she is angry.
24 There are several family members on each side of this case.

8 3. MAY 3, 2006 INCIDENT
9 on May 3, 2006 there was a hearing in the divorce case. That hearing was
continued at the request of GAL Bridget Llewellyn. By coincidence, visitation
10 was scheduled for that day. carol Holland delivered the baby at the ordinary
time. It was a great visit. Lauren is so happy when she is with her father.
11
At the time of the return, Jennifer was not in the house, she was in the
12 driveway cleaning her car when Andrew and I arrived. She approached the
car directly to get Lauren. I was out of the car attending to getting Lauren
13 out of the car. While she and I were both there at the car, I asked Jennifer for
Lauren's social security number so I could open a savings account for her.
14 Jennifer was irritated and told me to get it off Andrew's income tax
documents. Lauren would not go to Jennifer, so I carried her from the
15 driveway up onto the porch. 1handed Lauren to her on the porch. Jennifer
immediately went into the house. Jennifer's mother carol Holland was coming
16 out onto the porch and heard Jennifer's angry response. carol told me it was
a bad day for Jennifer and I asked the wrong question as she was upset that
17 Andrew had filed married/separate for 2005. I told carol that I only wanted
the social security number to open an account and that I did not want to be
18 involved in the controversies between her and Andrew. I asked carol if I could
talk to Jennifer to explain why I had asked for the social security number.
19 carol let me into the house. When I got inside, Jennifer wanted to talk about
the declarations filed in the divorce action and the visitation. carol told her
20 I did not want to discuss that issue. Jennifer brought it up again. Her mother
repeated that I did not want to talk about those issues. Jennifer returned to
21 the topic a third time. carol stopped her a third time. Jennifer left where we
had been standing and started toward their family room. As she was walking
22 away she was shouting at me that I would have supervised visitations along
with Andy from now on.
23
There was no reason for Jennifer to raise that issue with me. I am a
24 grandmother and 1 have no right to visitation myself. I have only been
designated as one of the visitation supervisors. The only reason that Jennifer
25 would have been telling me about future visitation conditions was specifically

to threaten and upset me. She succeeded. I called the guardian ad !item and
told her of this explosive temper incident. I also went into her office and
discussed it at some length.
After the May 3 incident and my discussions with the GAL, 1hoped that there
would be no similar future incidents.

on July 1, 2006 Lauren was delivered at Andrew's house by Lisa Brunsman. She
delivered the baby at 10:45 a.m. She was driving Jennifer's BMW. 1went out
to the car to get Lauren from her. Lisa never left the immediate vicinity of
the car.
While Lisa was delivering the baby, my son Jeff Rife came over to Andrew's
house. He parked behind Lisa's car, got out and cut across the lawn and went
in the front door. cutting across the lawn was the most direct route from his
truck to the front door. There.was no contact at all between Jeff and Lisa,
not a word, not a glance, not a gesture, nothing. I finished gathering up
Lauren and took her into the house. Lisa left.
At 11:00 a.m. the phone rang, Jeff answered. It was Mike Brunsman. After a
couple of minutes of friendly conversation Mike asked to speak with me. Jeff
gave me the phone. Mike told me that Jennifer wanted to speak to me and
asked that 1call her on her cell phone about visitation .. 1called from Andrew·s
home telephone to speak with Jennifer as requested: Jennifer told me that
Lisa said thatJeff had pulled in fast and jumped out of his truck, slamming the
truck door and walked angrily to the house and that he had a mean look on
his face. I told her that Jeff and his actions had all looked very normal and not
angry or upset to me. I reminded her that Jeff was specifically asked by
Andrew and his attorney to avoid all contact with Jennifer and her extended
family. At this point she became noticeably upset, she was angry. Her anger
came on like somebody had flipped a light switch. She told me emphatically
that Lisa would not lie about this. I just asked what she wanted me to say.
Jennifer then told me She is "sick of all of you." She complained of Andy
being angry. She said that we are all liars in our declarations about her. Then.
she demanded that we immediately deliver Lauren, ending the visit that had
just begun. She then told me that we could not see Lauren at the scheduled
visit on Monday, July 3, 2006. Before I could make any response she hung up
on me.
Shrotly after, the phone rang and there was a hangup. *69 showed that the
call came from a "private" number. About fifteen minutes after that there
was another hang up phone call.
Andrew and I discussed what to do. I told him that the court order was clear
and we should comply with it, delivering Lauren at the customary time, 5:30
p.m. I called and left a message for Bridget Llewellyn to tell her of the

1 incident. When we delivered Lauren Mike Brunsman came out to get her.
Mike's behavior was perfect. Both Jennifer and Lisa's cars were there, but 1
2 did not see either of them.
3 on Monday, July 3, 2006 I got a call from Mike Brunsman. He asked me if he
could bring Lauren to Andrew's house for the visit. I asked Mike if Jennifer
4 and Lisa were afraid to bring Lauren in to town. He just chuckled and did not
answer. Andrew was happy to have Mike do th·e delivery. Mike delivered the
s baby without incident. Another Great Visit. At the delivery, Mike again came
out of the house to get Lauren.

5. MY OPINIONS
7
Jennifer's conduct serves no useful purpose. I am a grandmother and 1 am a
a .supervisor for visitation. She is trying to intimidate me to get to my son. But
in the process she is upsetting me. She.wants to upset me. That way the visit
9 will be unpleasant for all concerned.
10 I believe that Jennifer will behave the same way in the future if the court
does not limit her ability to communicate with me. There is really no reason
11 for direct communication. I don't need the aggravation, and Jennifer needs
to find a different way to express her frustrations.

ANDREWS. RIFE,
10 Petitioner, No. U06-216
11 and
Declaration Carol Holland
12 CAROL HOLLAND,
13 Res ondent
14
15 My name is Carol Holland and I am the respondent named above. I am over 18
17 personal knowledge.
18
Andrew Rife is my son-in-law. He has filed for a divorce from my daughter
Jennifer. Jennifer is the respondent in Andrew's mother's companion request for a No
19
Contact Order in case No. U06-2 l 5. Andrew was arrested for assaulting my daughter
20
and for violating the No Contact Order that was issued by the criminal court after he
21
assaulted her. Now they are in the middle of a divorce. Andrew's visitation with our
22
granddaughter is supervised. Because our daughter has a DV Protection Order and a
23
Criminal No Contact Order preventing Andrew from coming near her I have helped with
24
the visitation between Andrew and his daughter Lauren. I have been the person who
25
primarily takes Lauren to Andy's home at the beginning of her visits and then he and his
26
mother return her to my home at the end of the visit.
27
The first incident Andy alleges is a complete fabrication. Andy did not have
28
residential time with Lauren in October of 2005 as the first court order was entered in
29
November and Andy had no visitation until that time. I did not drive by Andy's dad's
30
house, slowly rev my engine and give them bad looks. That is simply a lie.

..... \/' .
1 The only time I have driven by his father's house in the last year was on Dec. 17,
2 2005. Andy only knows this because I told his mother that I drove by there and saw
3 Andy's truck. I was in that part of town on business and had I 0 minutes to kill. I was
4 curious if Andy was really working with his dad because Wendy had made what seem
·5 like a lame and unbelievable excuse for Andy not to have visitation on that Saturday.
6 did not drive to this part of town to drive near this house. I needed to pick up a
7 prescription at the Bartell's there as it was were my prescription had been called in
8 previously and where I had it filled before. I was told by the pharmacist at the drive
9 through window to come back in I 0 minutes. So I drove around. I checked out a couple
10 of houses I had listed or was interested in hooking clients up with in that part of town and
11 then drove back to the pharmacy via a street that went near Andy's dad's house. (See
12 attached Exhibits A, B and C). Andy's truck was in fact at his dad's house and we
13 continue to believe that the visit was changed by Wendy/Andy to suit Andy's need to
15 The 3rd incident is also benign, and again I am afraid it is the Rife camp, in the
16 form of Mr. Gaul, who acted in a threatening manner in this instance. My daughter's
attorney in the divorce had asked me to have a "drive-by" appraisal done of Andy's
17
home. In early June of 2006 I did just that. I hired an appraiser and we drove to Andy's
18
address but parked across the street and several houses down. The appraiser walked over,
19
on the public sidewalk and took a couple of pictures. I stayed across the street at my car.
20
We saw that Andy was there but we did not attempt to make any contact with him as we
21
were only there to look at the house and get a photo of it. The appraiser has also written
22
a declaration and it is attached. To my knowledge there has been no court finding that
23
this house is Andy's separate property and that the community has no interest in it at all.
24
He has no basis to make those assertions.
25
Shortly after that I received a call from Andrew's attorney, Carl Gaul. Mr. Gaul
26
tried very hard to intimidate me. He demanded to know why I had been near Andy's
27
house and told me that if I did not answer him, "it was going to cost somebody a lot of
28
money." When I tried to respond to him that it was a free country and that nothing I had
29
done was illegal or wrong, he yelled back at me saying, "Don't give me that crap." I felt
3p
quite threatened yet did not obtain any protection order for myself.

1 To be clear, Andrew has filed a Petition asking that his me, his mother-in-law and
2 the person who has facilitated visitations with his daughter. not come near him or near his
3 home. He filed this claiming that he felt threatened by me. He feels threatened now
4 because I allegedly drove by his father's house back in October of 2005 at a time when
5 he says he was having residential time with Lauren but we know he was not. He feels
6 threatened now because in December of 2005, when I was in the neighborhood with 10
·7 minutes to kill 1 drove near his father's house when he was not even there. And finally
8 he feels threatened because a month ago I brought a real estate appraiser to his
9 neighborhood to see and photograph his house, which is subject to the divorce action.
10 The court should note that he signed the declaration on the 28 1h of June yet did not bother
11 to go to court until the 7•h of July, when he was on notice that Jennifer's attorney was
12 going to go to ex parte, in Superior Court. My daughter got served with her order while
13 she was at court. I was out of town and did not get served until the following Thursday,
almost a week later. In fact I did not even know that an order had been obtained against
14
me. Andy knew though. Two more times before I was served, I brought Lauren to his
15
house for visitation and he continued to come to my house with his mother when she was
16
returned. He is not threatened by me. He is only seeking this order to hurt Jenn and our
17
whole family. I have done nothing to threaten him.
18
This Petition was brought by Andrew in complete bad faith and only obtained for
19
the express purpose of harassing our family and exacting some type of revenge. It should
20
be dismissed and I should be awarded attorney fees and costs in defending myself against
21
these false allegations. I understand that these types of orders are necessary in some
22
cases but I can certainly see how easily they can be obtained and used for an improper
23
purpose. I am trusting that the court will see that there is no basis for this Petition and
24
that it's issuance has harmed more people than any protection it offered.

I met Carol Holland Oil the street near property address 2416 5th Street in the city of
Everett, WA. At that time we had an appointment to do a "drive by'' appraisal of the
property listed above. I was informed that there would be no access to the interior of the
property no would I. be granted access to the property in any form.
The appointment was set for 10:30am on June 22, 2006. We met across the street from
the property, noted that the home owner was in his drive way and proceeded to drive
around the street to discuss the appraisal information needed.· After approximately 15
minutes we drove back to the home, parked across the street in a similar position from the
home. At no time did either I or Carol erter onto private land, nor did I come closer to
the home than to take a photo of the front of the subject and side. I took these photos as
Carol was standing in front of her car writing a check for services rendered. At no time
when I was present did she "cross the street to the South side of 5th Street". She at all
times that l was present was cautious to stay near her car and left at the same time I did,
approximately lO:SOam.

l to be sure verify whether 1was working with my father in his business. I know
that this is what she was doing because she had a discussion with tny mother,
2 Wendy Rife, described in my mother's declaration. Carol Holland was upset
that visitation might have been rearranged in order to accommodate my
3 father"s business. It was actually rearranged at my mother's request due to
a change in her work schedule. In fact, my truck was parked at my father's
4 home and I was at a job site helping him: As though it is any of her business.

1went to my home 2415 - S'" Street verett WA to get my towel, intending
'5 to go to the Elks Club or an afternoon workout and steambath. When I drove
up to my house 1found.Carol Holland and another person at my home. They
.7 were each in a car, and when I drove up they both drove away quickly. carol
Holland had a look on her face that showed plainly she had been surprised bY
8 my appearance. The_ other person was not known to me and I had not really
paid much attention to that car until they left simultaneously.

I went Into my house and spent a few minutes getting my things together.

any one watching would think I was on my way to the gym. I went out to my
11 truck and got In and left. I only drove around the block and parked. I warted
1 s minutes. Then I drove back around the block. carol Holland and the other
12 woman were at my house again. This time they were out of their cars and
were obviously looking for something. The other person was taking plctu·res.

14 look. When she drove away she was actually spinning her tires she was in such

15
carol Holland has been stalking me. There is no reason for her to be
17 monitoring where 1am, or what I am doing. There is no reasonable purpose
for carol Holland to be at my home. I owned the home three years before
18 ,Jennifer moved in. My wife's name was never put on the title. It is my
·separate property. It is not marital property to be divided in the divorce.
19
I had my lawyer call carol Holland. She works for ReMax RealtY. and she
20 claimed that she had been looking at a ·neighbor's house for sale ·by
Lamareaux Realty. That house is at 2214 s '"street, two full blocks from my
21 house. When he asked her about photographs she acknowledged that
pictures were taken, but then declined to say more until she had spoken .to

· I am the Respondent named above. I make this declaration under penalty of perjury and
17
based on my own personal knowledge. I am over 18 and otlierwise competent to testify.
18
I May of 2005 my husba..TJd was .arrested and jailed for assaultir1g me. Shortly after
19
getting out of jail he moved back into our home a..TJ.d continued abusing me. I have been so
20
21
confused and beaten down that it has been very hard to stand up for our one year-old daughter or
mysel{ His abuse .has only escalated. As the date for his trial came 'near l realized that he was·
22
ac:tively trying to keep me away from our home so that I would not receive the subpoena to
23
testify. I also realized that he w;i.s trying very hard, in concert with his brother, to set me up to be·
24
· charged with assaulting him. I see this all clearly now in hi..-idsight.
25
His trial was set for ·Monday Oct. 3, 2005. On the weekend.prior to that day he pulled
26 ' '
every dirty trick in the book to try to ·incite me into taking some type of action agai~st him.
27
Instead I just took our daughter and stayed with my sister.. But unfortunately, both my daughter
28

29
left a message asking him.to leave so we could come borne. He ignored my messages. I finally
30
. just went back to our house and rang the doorbell until he opened the door. He flew into a rage

1 and ultimately the police were called. He tried to tell them that I hit him but his story did not
2 ring true. He kept changing' the place on his body that he claimed I hit him. There were no
·3 marks, because I had not touched him, and ultimately the officers realized he was lying. They
4 noted that there was a criminal no contact order against Andy from the previous assault and they
5 ultimately arrested him for violating the no contact order. See attached Exhibits A and B,
6 Everett Police Reports, Incident numbers 05-10775 and 05-21287, incorporated herein by
7 this reference.
8 I did show up to testify against him at his trial. Once he realized that I was going to
9 follow through he took the prosecutors offer and the case was disposed of. I don't know if he
1o pied guilty or what but I do know that he is required to participate in DV treatment and be on
11 probation for two years. The criminal no contact order is to remain in place for that entire time.
12 Attached No Contact Order from Everett Municipal Court, Exhibit C.
13
14 HISTORY OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE
15 One of the first instances was in 2003 when we went to dinner. When we came home, he
16 realized he .had locked the keys in the house. The first thing out of his mouth was that it was my
17 fault because I wanted to go to dinner, and that he wouldn't have locked the keys in the house if
18 it hadn't been for me. Then. he proceeded to break out the garage window with a ladder (at
19
midnight) waking up neighbors, who called the police.
Within a couple of months ofliving together we had an argument after being at a friend's
20
house for a New Years Eve. He was yelling, screaming, and crying. He called his Mother in the
21
middle of the argument to tell her I was being "mean" and being awful to him. After hanging up,
22
he punched his fist thru the bedroom closet door, shattering it.
23
A day after giving birth to our daughter by caesarean (9/25/04) I tried to talk to my
24
husband about how upset I was that his family kept trying to invite too many of their friends into
25
my hospital room. I asked him to have a talk with his Mother about this. He became very .
26
agitated, saying he did not want to hurt his Mother's feelings, and that I was being too sensitive.
27
The nurses heard the commotion in the room, and came in to see if I was all right. They asked
28
me if! wanted my husband to leave.
29
Within a month of the birth of our daughter, we had another argument. As I walked down
30
the hall to get away from him, he grabbed a handful of my hair and drug me back down the hall

1 towards him. When I started to cry he said he only meant to grab my jacket and that I was
2 overreacting.
3 Last December we went to visit my sister and brother-in-law and their two children. My
4 husband and my brother-in-law left saying they were going to pick up appetizers to bring back
5 and that they'd be back in half an hour. They came back in three hours and Andy appeared to be
6 intoxicated. We had a disagreement about it when he came back and he immediately became
7 verbally abusive, calling me a "whore" and "stupid". I tried to leave, with our daughter, but he
8 followed right behind me. He got into the car, and continued screaming at me, yelling within an
9 inch of my face, calling me a "whore" and "a piece of shit." He kept screaming that he could do
11 shook me so hard by the sweatshirt I was wearing that he left cuts and abrasions on the back of
12 my neck. He also pulled me my hair to pull me closer to him so he could yell at me. He screamed
13 that he hated me and that he wanted out. Our 3-month-old daughter was in the car during this.
14 My sister heard all of this, as well as her 4 year-old son, and 2-year-old daughter. My sister. came
15 out to the garage and saw what was happening in the car. Later that night at home, he apologized
16 to me, saying he didn't mean to hurt me. He helped to clean and dress the abrasions on my neck.
It became routine for him to become extremely angry and verbally abusive during any
17
disagreement. One time he said he hoped that the next time I was out driving that I'd get hit by a
18
semi truck and die. He calls me a "whore, a loser, a piece of shit, fat" and says that he "made me
19
who I am", and that I "would be nothing without him", and that I am "stupid." He tells me all of
20
the time, with a look of hatred in his face that he wants to break my neck, or punch me in the
21
face. He will mimic this, showing me the motions of it with his hands. He gets so angry, he
22
breaks out in a sweat, his face becomes very red and his lips thin and white and his mouth so dry
23
he can barely speak more than a couple of sentences at a time. In a lot of cases he would rip
24
whatever shirt he was wearing off of his body and flex his muscles in front of me. After leaving
25
bruises on me, he will say that I bruise easily, and that he really didn't grab me very hard.
26
There was an instance in the kitchen where he shoved me up against the kitchen counter,
27
and pulled the water hose out of the sink, and sprayed water in my face. When he screams at me
28
with his nose almost touching mine, he has at times purposefully spit in my face when he was
29
done yelling.

1 In February/March 2005 my husband and I were having an argument that quickly
2 escalated. He said to get my attention that he was going to call the police and say that I had hit
3 him. Once he called, he hung up. When the 911 dispatcher called back, they informed my
4 husband that they were sending out a patrol car. My husband forced me to get in the car and
5 leave. I did has he asked, and went down Colby Avenue and parked in a quite residential area
.6 until my husband called me on my cell phone and said I could come back home. He told the
7 officers that night that the reason he called was he thought our daughter was sick or choking, and
8 after a few minutes he realized she was okay.
9 The night my husband was arrested in May, he became very aggressive and agitated after
10 a disagreement. He repeatedly shoved me to the floor, knocking me down every time I got back
11 up. He kicked me while I was down trying to prevent me from getting up. He was also calling
12 me "whore", "cunt", "stupid", "loser" and a "worthless piece of shit". That same night he
13 grabbed me from behind, and rubbed my face in the carpet. He told me he wanted to "see me
14 dead" and that he wanted to "punch me in the face and break my neck." With gestures he showed
15 me what he wanted to do to me. After he was booked into the county jail, I was the first person
he called. He was crying. He told me he was afraid of where he was at, that he was sorry for
16
what he had done and that he was afraid of losing "his family".
17
During another altercation, my husband cornered me in the kitchen, and while screaming
18
at me right in my face, he lowered his head and bit my left cheek close to my chin. Not hard
19
enough to draw blood, but hard enough to leave teeth marks in my skin.
20
In another instance, while we were having an argument regarding our sex life he said that if I
21
wanted to get laid more he'd be happy to show me how it's done. He grabbed me around my
22
waist and bodily picked me up, pinning me against the kitchen counter, and forcefully pretended
23
like he was having intercourse with me.
24
When we were remodeling our bedroom, we had only a single mattress lying on the floor.
25
During another disagreement, he grabbed me by one arm and threw me across the room. I
26
landed hard and on the floor, injuring my arm. The pain was excruciating, and I could not move
27
it without pain for two days. Later that night I told him I thought my arm was really hurt, and
28
that maybe I should go the hospital. He told me to just sleep it off a little bit, and that maybe it
29
would feel better. He even helped to arrange two pillows for me to sleep with my arm propped

1 level to my body. He apologized once ag:iin saying tkt he didn't mean to hurt me; I just landed
2 wrong.
3 On another occasion I was trying again t get away from him. I ran out to the garage to get
4 into the car to leave but he grabbed the keys from me before I could leave. He pushed me out the
5 door and down the garage steps then chased me around the car, trying to get a hold of me while I
.6 tried to keep away. When he could not catch me, he picked up dirty clothes from the laundry
·7 basket in the garage and thru clothes in my face.
8 He has broken many things in our home. He has broken two closet doors, a phone, two
9 kitchen chairs, our daughter's toys and a kitchen cupboard. He punched out the screen door in·
10 our garage;. he has left holes in the walls of our family room. When he punched the closet door
11 he nearly broke his hand; it was purple and swollen for almost two weeks. He got mad when our
12 daughter was a newborn, because I was stressed out and tired. I told him that I needed help. He
13 told me that I should have told him that I didn't want to be a mother, as he would have made me
14 have an abortion. He has repeatedly told me in anger that he never wanted to be married, and
15 never wanted kids. He has thrown baby bottles, pop bottles, and other breakable items.
16 He would always call his brother or mother when we fought, and they would always take
17 his side. His mother is so abused by her ex husband and sons that her life is no longer her own.
18 She would sometimes show up unannounced and continued to argue along side my husband,
goading me, telling me I should call the "cops" on her, the way I called them on my husband in
19
May. On a recent evening while she was there, my husband held the car keys away from me so I
20
could not take my daughter and leave. Eventually, he threw them at me, telling me and told me
21
to get out of his house. By that time, our daughter was asleep, and I was not going to leave
22
without her. His mother asked him to leave but he refused. He said that he was, "staying right
23
where he was, and that he was going to make my life miserable."
24
Recently he came hoine from work early mad because I. had slept on the couch the night
25
before. He cornered me in our daughter's bedroom, and started screaming in my face because I
26
was arguing back with him. When he got too close, I lifted my left arm in front of me, to protect
27
myself. He hit my arm down so hard that he left a large bruise directly on my forearm, going up
28
into my bicep. I got upset and left to go into the bedroom. He followed behind me, and grabbed
29
me by the arms and started to violently shake me. He picked me up and threw me onto the bed.
30
Then he forcibly kept me there by putting his weight on me. He kept telling me to "shut-up" and

1 to listen to him. I tried very hard to break free of him. By the next evening, I noticed that I had a
2 very large, black and purple bruise under my right bicep, and large painful bruise on my left
3 forearm, and a strained muscle in my neck.
4 During the entire time I have known him Andy has driven erratically and dangerously
·5 with my daughter and me in the car. Anyone who looks at him, or doesn't drive to his liking, will
6 send him into a rage. He will yell obscenities (normally "stupid cunt"), flex his harm and curl his
7 fist in the rear view mirror or driver's side window at the person he is upset with. At times, I
8 have been extremely frightened, thinking we were going to be in an accident, or get into an
9 altercation with the person that he is yelling at.
.10 He has done this many times with our daughter in the car. One incidence, up near the
11 corner of 10th and Colby, he jerked the car over to the curb, got out of the car, leaving the drivers
12 side door open, and chased after a car he thought was driving too closely behind us. The second
13 time, we were up near Rucker Hill and Andy became very agitated, as he thought a passing car
14 gave him a nasty look. He came to an abrupt stop on the side of the road, got out of the car and
15 grabbed what I believe is a tire iron out of the trunk. He was yelling and screaming at the car
17 I have filed for a Domestic Violence Protection order against him. He has filed for
18 divorce and obtained an ex parte restraining order against me. This is all in retaliation. There is
no basis for any restraints against me. He is just using this to try to have my daughter and I
19
removed from his house and to make my life hard.
20
21
HUSBAND'S FALSE ALLEGATIONS OF ALCOHLISM
22
In the beginning of our relationship, I told him in confidence because I thought I could
23
trust him that I had been in a treatment center the previous year in 2002. Edgewood is a
24
treatment center on Vancouver Island that deals with Depression, Chemical Dependency, and
25
many other addictions, such as gambling and sexual addictions. My family confronted me
26
because they thought that I looked tired and depressed; they were concerned hat I was self-
27
medicating myself for personal issues that I was dealing with at that time in my life. I listened to
28
what everyone had to say, and agreed that the best thing for me was to go, and to learn and listen.
29
I knew I had been drinking too much and knew this was not how I wanted to live my life. I took
30
in a lot of information from Edgewood that I think has dramatically changed the outlook I have

1 on life. It ·made me more secure in who I am. I learned that during tough times in my life I do.
2 not need to lean on alcohol to help me. Having willingly gone there and taken responsibility for
3 what I was doing wrong, greatly empowered me.
4 At first my husband told me that my parent's must have been crazy sending me there, he
5 couldn't understand why. Once the abuse started, he began constantly putting me down for
6 going, calling me a drug addict and a loser. He also tried to break down my confidence, by
7 telling everyone in his family, his friends, and even co-workers about my past struggle. I know
8 this, as he would tell me in an argument, that I was a loser, and everyone that he told knew it.
9 When I met him and fell in love with him, I decided I wanted to change my life, and live
10
with more integrity and responsibility. I did this on my own and am proud of how my life has
11 turned out. I feel I was a great wife and a wonderful Mother. I was very excited about the arrival
of our daughter. I have been with her and taken care of her every day of her life.
12
13
FINANCIAL ISSUES
14
I acknowledge that the house we live in and have lived in during our marriage was his
15
house prior to our marriage. Also, he bought the car I drive just a month before we got married,
16
although we were living together when he bought it. While I understand that these may or may
17
not be separate assets that is a matter that should be resolved later. I am willing to move out of
18
the house but I will need some time to make those arrangements. I am asking that I be allowed
19
to remain in the home for the next 90 to 120 days. I need to continue using the car as my
20
business requires that I drive to offices. Without it I would be completely unable to earn a living.
21
To compound matters, I have no money. I have no money right now because Andy took
22
all of the money out of our joint checking account. There was about $7,500.00 in that account.
23
See attached Exhibit D, Sept. 2005 bank statement. Earlier this month, the day after he was
24
arrested the second time, I decided to take half of the money out so that I would be able to move
25
and hopefully pay an attorney. But before I could, I found out that he had taken all of it out and
26
closed the account. See attached Exhibits D and E. He left me with no money and now he
27
wants my daughter and I to have no place to live and no car to drive. I am asking that he be
28
required to pay me one-half of the money he took from our joint account within I 0 days of this
29
order.

.1 I am self-employed. l do not believe I make as much as Andy claims l do on his
2 proposed support worksheet. The only records I have are my invoices. Looking back over the
3 last year, iny average gross monthly income has been $2,798.00, see attached Exhibit F.
4 ·Andy's withholdings and mortgage interest deductions have always been enough to allow us to
5 pay no taxes on my income but still get a refund. I estimate that my taxes will be roughly 25%
6 of my income. In looking at Andy's most recent pay stub I believe he has under reported his
7 income by about $100.00 per month. I have attached a child support worksheet that I believe
8 more accurately reflects our monthly incomes.
9
10 PARENTING PLAN
11 Andy is asking the court to appoint a GAL for our daughter and to either give him
12 primary residential custody of our daughter or have us both have her half the time. I am opposed
13 to either. He is an abusive man, both has a husband and as a father. I believe that our daughter
14 would be in real danger ifleft alone with him at this point. I may feel differently if he enters into
15 some meaningful treatment for the domestic violence which also deals with parenting in this
16 context but right now he continues to blame it all on me and take no responsibility for his own
17 actions. I have done some research into the different DV treatment programs and would ask that
the court order that he attend treatment at Family Services in Seattle. The reason I want him to
18
go there is that they not only have a batterers treatment program but that have two different
19
programs for parents as well: one is called DV Dads and the other is called Respectful
20
Parenting. I know of no other program that also has programs dealing with parenting. I cannot
21
stress enough how much danger I believe our daughter would be in if he is allowed unbridled
22
contact with her at this point. I am asking that court to order that there be no visitation until he
23
has completed at least 60 days of treatment at Family Services and has received positive monthly
24
progress reports.
25
I have no objection to the appointment of a GAL but I have no money right now to pay
26
any retainer for one. I have had to borrow money from my parents for my attorney's retainer. I
27
make enough from my job to support my daughter and I but I have no extra income. I will have
28
to use every penny I have to find another place for us to live. Andy makes more money than I
29
and I would ask that he be required to pay any initial retainer for a GAL.

15 on the issue of a Temporary Parenting Plan. The court appointed a GAL for our daughter

1 the back seat. That was around Christmas of 2004. That time he grabbed my .sweatshirt
2
collar and shook me violently, so hard that I ended up with abrasions around my neck.
3
He also grabbed me by the hair, again, and pulled my face right up to .his and. screamed
4
5 horrible names at me.
6 After that time his abuse became routine. Not only physical but constant
7
emotional and verbal abuse. By the spring it was becoming difficult to hide the cuts and
8
9 bruises. Andy would always apologize and swear it would never happen again but it
10 always did. I was depressed and felt trapped. He began to make attempts to control all of
11
our money and we had.no friends outside of our two families. I was so embarrassed and I
12
13 tried hard to hide this all from my parents.
14 By May of 2005 the abuse was so bad that I finally called the police. After he got
15
out of jail he promised to get into counseling or treatment and I got it all set up for him.
16
The prosecutor and judge allowed us to move back in together but Andy stopped going to
17
18 counseling and slowly started becoming abusive again. When the prosecutor found out
19
he was not in compliance with his treatment she requested that the No Contact Order be
20
put back in place. The judge did just that but that did not stop Andy. He moved back in
21
22 to our house, continued his abuse and continued to deny that there was any problem,
27 police did not believe him. They arrested him for violating the No Contact Order. At
28
that point we permanently separated. (Please see initial declaration for my detail).

ISSUES \VITH ALCOHOL
3
I filed for a Protection Order, Andy filed for divorce. Rather than admit that he
4
5 has a problem, Andy has continued to blame me in any way he can. Knowing that I had
6
gone to a treatment facility years ago at my parents request he suddenly tells the court
7
that I. am a problem drinker. When I drink I don't abuse people. I don't drink to excess.
8
9 I don't drink and drive. I don't accost people when I am driving. Andy does all of these
10 things. I think he really does have a problem with alcohol, along with his problem with
11
rage.and abuse. The following is what I know about Andy's drinking and it concerns me.
12
13 When Andy and I first started dating in 2002, I noticed right away that he drank
14 quite a bit. Because I had just recently been at a treatment center in Vancouver I had
15
concerns that maybe he was an alcoholic. He explained is drinking to me telling me,
16
"Drinking is how I relax and get to know people." He also told me that he didn't really
17
18 know of any other way to have a good time. During that time, and up until he filed for
19
divorce, Andy has never expressed any concern over my alcohol consumption.
20
Andy has bragged to me that, before we met, he used to go out 3-4 times a week
21
22 with his friend and get very intoxicated. He bragged that he missed work from hangovers.
23 He also told me that he and his buddy got into many bar room brawls, and fist fights with
24
strangers that they met in these bars. He spoke with pride of the fights he would get into
25
26 while driving his car. He was a "regular" at a bar in Everett on Hewitt Ave. called
27 "Bucks American Cafe". They even specially ordered an imported Italian beer for him
28
called "Moretti". He told me that sometimes he got so drunk there, that one of the staff

1 would follow him home after closing. He would spend 4-6 days a week there, usually
2
after work, and on Saturdays.
3
He also confided in me at one point, that sometime before we met, his family had
4
5 mentioned that they were concerned that he was gaining weight from di-inking to much.
6 His Mother and Aunt have also expressed concern that they do not like to see him
7
drinking so much. Alcoholism runs rampant in Andy's family. Both his Mom and Aunt
8
9 completely abstain, as both of their parents were alcoholics. His maternal Uncle is an
10 alcoholic who no longer drinks due to the many problems in his life associated ·with
11
alcohol. His sister in-law is also an alcoholic and she also no longer drinks. I believed
12
13
she stopped after getting a DUI.
18 phone with his father and would look at me with an exaggerated "drunk" look on his face
19
while his Dad was talking.
20
Routinely, Andy would walk into the house in the early afternoon on Saturdays
21
22 with a beer in his hand after working with his father that day. He has told me on several
23 . occasions that it is routine for he and his Father to stop at the liquor store for Scotch and
24
beer to drink in the van on the way home.
25
26 I have no problem abstaining from alcohol but I do not believe it is a problem in
10 have witnessed firsthand many frightening .acts of rage when Andy is behind the wheel.
11
He has told me of many instances of he or his Dad screaming out the car window at the
12
13 person driving next to therri. Both Andy and his father refer to women drivers most often
14 as, "stupid cunts" and "fat bitches." I have witnessed him driving too fast and erratically,
15
even with our daughter in the car. Many times he has stopped the car and challenged·
16
someone to come and fight him while Lauren and I were in the car. I have felt that we
17
18 were in danger on many·occasions.
19 Andy refuses to Jet a woman drive when he is in the car, regardless of his level on
20
iiltoxication. There are many times that I can think of where he has clearly been
21
22 intoxicated but has refused to Jet me dTive, opting instead to have Lauren and I
23 passengers in his car when he is intoxicated. I do not trust that he will not drive with
24
Lauren in.the car after drinking because he does not believe there is anything wrong with
25
26 this. It is about his power, not about good parenting to him.
27 Andy is extremely racist and sexist. He talks constantly about how women are
28
lying, manipulative bitches. He has told me· over and over again, that women don't
29
belong in politics, and how awful they are to work with. He says all they do is call in

6 passed a house where we could here a·man and woman arguing, when we heard someone
7
being hit. I'm assuming it was the woman, as we heard her start crying, then the 'man
8
9 slanimed out of the house and got in his vehicle and left. I said "Oh my god, I think he
10 just hit her." Andy turned towards me, with a very nasty look on his face and said, "she's
11
a raving bitch, she probably deserved it."
12
During our marriage Andy did not take responsibility for child care and rearing
13
14 duties in fact he was rarely home. A normal weekly routine in our house was this: Andy
15
would get up at 5:00 a.m. and go to her father's house for breakfast then to the Elks club
16
for a steam and shower and off to work by 7:00 a.m. For every lunch break he would go
17
18 back to the Elks club for a "workout and steam." When he got off work he would go
19
back to the Elks club for another steam bath and swim. He would come home for dinner
20
and then go back to the Elks club in the evening. On Saturdays he would get up at 6:00
21
22 a.m. and leave to go Jay clean carpets with his father. Often he would work on Sundays
23 also. If he did not work on Sundays he made several trips to the Elks club. In short, he
24
was rarely home. If he was home he was mowing our lawn or washing the cars. He was
25
26 not spending time with our daughter. If he was in the house he wanted to be talking to
27 me, not playing with the baby. Once she got old enough to sit up he would prop her in
28
front of the TV to watch a video rather than play with her himself. He has almost no
29
tolerance for her crying and I am fearful of what he would do if he had her alone and she

. "
1 would not stop crying. Andy cannot tolerate any type of mess and having her toys all
2 over the floor drove him crazy. While we were living together I was able to be the buffer
3
for these shortcomings but I am very concerned about what he might do when or if he is
4
5 taking care of Lai.iren alone. I am very fearful that if she had a tantrum or cried for more
6 than a few minutes he would strike or shake her or worse. He has told me over and over
7
that the sound of her crying "hurts his ears." I have witnessed first hand how agitated he
8
9 gets when she cries too iong.
10 I am very concerned that unless and until Andy volilntarily takes honest
11
responsibility for his attitudes and actions, he poses a risk to our very young daughter. I
12
13
do not want to keep her from him or he from her but I have also witnessed a spiraling
. 14 cycle of abuse in his life, including injury causing physical violence in our relationship
15
on multiple occasions. I see no evidence that he has changed. He is doing everything in
16
his power to make this as hard as he can for me, which in turn harms our daughter.
17
18 I do not believe he is engaging in any meaningful domestic violence treatment. I
19 do not believe he is in compliance with his criminal sentence in that regard either. He
20
claims to be in treatment but no intake or assessment records have been seen. For our
21
22 daughter's sake he needs to learn how much o.f a negative influence his sexist, racist and
10 ·been cranky and out of sorts since this every other day visitation started. Most days when
11
Andy returns her at 6:30 p.m. she is asleep (not her naptirne) which throws off her routine
. -
12
and makes it very difficult to get her back to sleep on her normal schedule. It is clear to
13
14 me that he is not playing with her while he has her but is instead, letting her fall asleep.
15
l would suggest that we opt for 2 or 3 visits per week with one or two during the week to
16
be from 3:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. I would ask that a real effort be made to not just let
17
18 Lauren sleep but to interact with her during that tirrie. The third visit could be on the
19 weekend and for up to four hours.
20
·CONCLUSION
21
23 Litem and ordered us to return to this court for a review on Dec. 6, 2005. Ms. Llewellyn
24
was on a vacation for two weeks during that time and only returned on Nov. 28th. It is
25
26 my understanding that she will not have any interim report, as she has not yet been able
1 wo\lld ask that the issue of Andy's visitation be continued for an additional 8
1
2 weeks to allow Ms. Llewellyn the time necessary to co11duct her investigation. That
3
Andy be required to have a DV assessment with Family Services in Seattle. If he is in
4
treatment I have no objection to the continuation of his visitation, supervised by his
5
a· mother as I have outlined above.
7
. I am begging this court to enter an Order for Protection as requested in my
B
Petition for Protection. I am terrified !JO Andy. 1 believe he still wants to control me a."ld
13
10 that he will continue to abuse if he is given the ch:mce. l understand that any Protection
11 Order would make allowances for the Parenting Plan in our family law case.

INCIDENT RECLASSIFIED TO; DATE OF RECLASSIFICATION RELATED CASE NUMBER(S)IW. S. P. CONTROL NO
On 10/02/05 at approximately 0330 hours I responded to a report of a physical domestic violence situation at 2416
5th St. While en route, dispatch updated me that the male, Andrew S. Rife (3/22173) is the respondent to a no-
contact order. The protected party was his wife Jennifer R. Rife (8/08/74 ).
I arrived on scene and was met by a male who identified himself as Jeffrey D. Rife (6/27/75), the brother of
Andrew. At the front of the residence was Jennifer sitting on the porch. Officer Cracchiolo began to interview her
about-the situation:· t entered the house were Andrew was, he stated that earlier that night he was at his brother,
Jeffrey's house. Andrew's mom called asking if Jennifer could come over to Andrew and Jennifer's house while he
was gone. He told his mother that he did not want her over at the house. Later thatnight he returned home and
went to bed. At approximately 0330 hours Andrew heard someone banging on the front door. It was his wife,
Jennifer and their child, at first he did not let her inside because he said he was worried about the no-contact order.
He let her in the house and Andrew said Jennifer struck him on the right side of the face with a clos.ed fist and then
kicked him in the shin on the right leg while he was holding their 1 y/o daughter. I looked at Andrew's face and leg,
neither of them showed any redness or indication of a physical altercation. Andrew showed me a telephone in the
kitchen that had been broken by Jennifer the previous day when they got into an argument. The phone was on the
wall and the earpiece had been broken, connected by the wires only. Andrew told me that they have both been
staying at the house the past couple weeks. When I asked he stated he realized that he was in violation of the no
contact order against him.
Andrew then got on the phone and called his brother Jeffrey to come over because he said he was worried about
being arrested and he wanted Jeffrey to witness Jennifer hitting him. Jeffrey arrived at the house while I was
arriving on scene.
When talking with Jennifer she said !~at she had repeatedly called her house trying to contact her husband.
Jennifer wanted to come home because she was sick and wanted to get medicine and possibly stay at the house.
After repeated attempts to contact Andrew, Jennifer went over to the house. She knocked on the door and Andrew
would not let her in at first. Andrew eventually let her in. Jennifer stated that no assault had taken place and that he
.had made that up prior to Andrew calling his brother to come over. Seco;1r!:i:v

Jennifer and Andrew are married and have been living at 2416 5'" street for awhile. They have a child in common
and share custody of the child along with the house.
After talking with Andrew's brother, Jeffrey he said that the two have had multiple problems in the relationship.
Andrew has been trying to keep his distance from his wife, but it has not been possible with them having a 1 y/o
daughter in common.
Both of Andrew's parents showed up at the house while I was on scene. The father James J. Rife (8/17/47) stated
that his son had been staying with him at his house the past weekend, due to problems between Andrew and
Jennifer. The mother, Wendy S. Rife (12/10/49) said that Jennifer had called her asking if she could call Andrew to
get permission to come over to the house. Wendy checked with Andrew and he had said that he does not want
Jennifer over there. Wendy called Jennifer back at Jennifer's parents and told her that Andrew does not want her to
come home.
I explained to Andrew that the no-contact order restricts him from coming within 150 feet of Jennifer's residence.
Andrew said he knew he was in violation of the court order and that he had tried to get the order quashed earlier
this week 9/29/05. I told Andrew that the order has not changed and that he was still in violation. When I placed
Andrew under arrest he began to complain of chest pains. I called for an Aid-car, they arrived on scene and
checked Andrew out. The determined he was alright and it was likely anxiety.
I read Andrew his constitutional rights from my department issued rights card, he said he understood and wanted to
talk to his lawyer. I advised him once we got to the jail he would be able to call his lawyer. I transported Andrew to
the Snohomish County Jail and booked him for violation of no-contact order. ·
· I am referring this case to the prosecutors' office for additional charges against Jennifer R. Rife for assault .

INCIDENT RECLASSIFIED TO: DATE OF RECLASSIFICATION RELATED CASE NUMBER(S)IW. S. P. CONTROL NO
On 10/02/05 at approximately 0330 hours I responded to 2416 5th Street to assist Officer Olsen with complaint of a
violation of a No-Contact Order and physical domestic violence. While I was on my way to the call I received
. information from dispatch that there was a valid order in the system that showed Jennifer Rife as the protected
person and Andy Rife as the respondent in the order.
The reporting person was Andy Rife and he advised the 911 call-taker that a female was at the location and that
she had punched him in the face while he was holding his daughter. Supplemental text was added by the call-
taker that the female was Andy's wife, Jennifer, and that she was now locked outside of the residence. There was
said to be an associated white BMW outside of the residence ..
Upon arrival I contacted a male west of the house that identified himself as Jeff. Rife, the brother of Andy Rife. Jeff
told me that he was phoned by Andy and told to come over to the residence because Jennifer had ·returned and
assaulted him. Jeff said he was there to support his brother. I asked Jeff to remain in his.·vehicle and not enter ttie ·
home until officers could sort out what was occurring.
I then contacted Andy while Officer Cracchiolo spoke with Jennifer. Andy said that he was hit in the face and
pointed to his right eye. I could see no marks that substantiated his claim, but did not rule out the possibility. It
should be noted that Andy's first complaint of the assault only included the area directly above his right eye and no
other part of his body.
Andy was adamant that he did nothing wrong and that he was awakened by Jennifer ringing the doorbell over and
over again. His appearance certainly Jent itself to his statements about being awakened suddenly as he was only
wearing jeans that were not completely fastened. Andy was holding his daughter,l;:§!!JftrR/~fld ~~pressed great
concern about Lauren being brought to the residence by Jennifer at the odd hour. doc,.:'.';, ?',''"9'1111l:Jiio 11 of th"
U1;1..,;!L Ji) nut di.it10ri--..'l IS
Andy told me that Jennifer had left the house the day prior and he was under the understanding that she woufcfSe
staying in Clearview with family. Jennifer was said to have contacted Wendy Rife, Andy's mother, about her
returning to the house and Wendy told her not to because Andy would be home. Immediately I could see some
discrepancy in who actually resides at the residence in which we were currently at. Both Jennifer and Andy alleged
that the residence was their primary address and with a valid No-Contact Order in the system there is the obvious
problem with the two of them residing under the same roof.
I certify (or declare) under penalty of perjury under the laws of the State of Washington that the foregoing is true and correct. (RCW 9A.72.085.)
Andy had called Wendy after the police responded and she had come to support Andy. While I was speaking with
Wendy, yet another vehicle drove up to the residence. The driver of that vehicle was identified as James Rife, the
father of Andy. James had also arrived at the residence to support Andy. I spoke with both James and Wendy and
together they explained that Jennifer is a constant problem to Andy. They advised me that Andy and Jennifer have.
been living at the residence though it is a clear violation of the order. Apparently in the days just prior to this
incident, Jennifer and Andy had gone to dinner and an argument ensued bec<!use Andy refused to drink alcoholic
beverages with Jennifer at the restaurant.. That is what sparked Jennifer's leaving to be with family in Clearview.
James told me that Andy had also left the residence after that incident and was staying at his residence. James
said that he had hoped Andy would remain there but Andy told him that since Jennifer had gone to Clearview, he
wanted to return home.. Both James and Wendy completed written statements for me describing their knowledge
of the current living situation of Andy and Jennifer.
I told James and Wendy about the nature of the call in which I had responded to with other officers and explained
to them that there was indeed an order violation. I also stated that we were investigating the assault that Andy had
alleged occurred. I advised them that it was quite possible that the incident could result in Andy being arrested. To
this James adamantly replied that Jennifer was the ongoing problem and that the house had belonged to Andy
prior to the marriage and it was not right for his son to have to leave due to the order. I explained to him that it was
my understanding that neither Jennifer nor Andy appeared to have a clear understanding·of who was to remain at
the residence and that perhaps clarification was needed so we could prevent ·further violations of the Judge's court
ord~r.
I again.contacted Andy inside the residence. I asked him a second time to show me where Jennifer had hit him ..
This time Andy pointed to the side of his head above his right ear. I noted that this was a different location than he
had initially pointed out to me the first time I asked. I was also advised by Officer Olsen that Andy had advised him
that he was kicked by Jennifer in his leg but no mark or any other physical evidence could substantiate that claim. I
found it odd that the story of the alleged assault appeared to be evolving as the time passed.
I had brief interaction with Jennifer and she appeared to me to be very agitated and unwilling to answer questions
directly. To my knowledge, Officer Cracchiolo had the most interaction with Jennifer and his follow up should be
referenced for her account of the incident. I can say that in my brief interaction with her she seemed to be unclear
on the matter of who should reside in the residence and who should not. I also suggested to her that a parenting
. plan would be a good tool in reference to Lauren.
Ultimately Andy was taken into custody and booked at the Snohomish County Jail for the order violation. I phoned
James and advised him of the outcome as he had indicated to me while he was on scene that he would appreciate
my doing so. James was of course displeased with the final result and I suggest~~ to him that he should continue
to support Andy as he clearly was already doing and encourage Andy to not violatel~elogl_llrf!js;.;~!!Tiiii::JHGn of I";,

On 5/21/05 I was dispatched to 2416 5•h St for a physical domestic. The caller, a f.ernple, called 911 and told the
call taker "My husband is abusive." The call taker could hear a male yelling in t~Oai:kground. The female hung
~~e~~. . '
When I arrived, Andrew Rife answered the door. I asked him if there was --~ument
inside the house. He told
me that he and his wife, Jennifer Rife, were arguing but quickly added t~~~n't physical." I asked Andrew to
step out and talk to Sgt. Myers while I interviewed Jennifer inside. ~.....,
Jennifer was still upset.and crying. I could smell the odor of into~icoming from her, but it did not appear that
she was intoxicated. Jennifer told me that she and Andrew went dinner in Seattle. On their way home, he
wanted to go to a casino. She did not. They started to argu85 it.
When they got home, the. argument continued. Andrew coi;ll'.!:lued to escalate until he grabbed her by the arms and
siarted shaking her in anger. She fell to the ground. Sb.~t up and they continued to argue. She eventually
called911. ~
I asked her if she had any injuries or marks as a re!a~the
assault. She told me "No. But I have bruises from
last Saturday Night." She pulled up her sleeves ~"llhowed me two bruises, one on each arm. The bruises were
purple, about the size of a thumb. I asked her hoMe had gotten them. She told me that he had assaulted her
last week as well, in the same fashion. Jen~if Id me that her husband is "a really nice guy, but when he gets
angry he has a terrible temper." The bruis her arms were consistent with Andrew grabbing her by the biceps
and shaking her. ~
Next I interviewed Andrew. Andrew al~ld me that they had gotten into an argument on the way home. He told
me that it "wasn't physical" but alsc;i ~e he had "grabbed" her.
~
Due to the history of un reporte~ssaults involving Andrew and Jennifer and the victim's injury from a previous
DV, I placed Andrew under arr~r assault DV. Sgt. Myers remained on scene to obtain written statements.
f perjury under the laws of the State of Washington that tho foregoing is true and correcl (RCW 9A.72.085.)

Petitioner,

14 Res ondent
15
16
On behalf of the respondent, Jennifer Rife, we object to any finding of contempt ..
absent personal service or sufficient service and acceptance by Jennifer's below signed
17
attorney. Andrew Rife has obtained an Order to Show Cause re Contempt against
18
Jennifer Rife. That hearing is set for July 31, 2006 at 9:00 a.m.
19
Today is July 25, 2006. As of this date Ms. Rife has not been personally served
20
with the Motion and Order to Show Cause or the Motion for a finding of Contempt.
21
Also, as of this date, the copy of this order that has been received by counsel for Ms. Rife
22
is a copy that was faxed to my office. If it was Mr. Gaul trying to serve a copy via fax he
23 is well aware that my office does not accept service via facsimile absent prior
24 arrangements and agreement to accept such service. Although we are in receipt of a copy
25 of the Motion and Order to Show Cause, at no time has Mr. Gaul, on behalf of Mr. Rife,
26 requested that we accept service on behalf of Jennifer Rife. There was no form for
27 Acceptance of Service faxed with the copy of the Motion and Order to Show Cause nor
28 has one been provided to me since this order was obtained on the l 7'h of July.

,o
1 Mr. Gaul has indicated to me on the telephone that the other attorney in my office
2 who covered a hearing in this case last week did say that we would accept service. That
3 is true. But saying we will accept service still requires that we receive adequate service
4 and a form for accepting service that we can sign and which can be filed with the court.
5 At this point, no adequate service has been accomplished on either Jennifer Rife
6 or her attorney. We object to any finding of contempt as there is insufficient service on
7 either the party or her attorney for the court to make such a finding.
8 In an abundance of caution, with this objection we are filing and serving our
9 response to the motion for contempt. The court is free to consider the information
11 appointed and that Mr. Rife's future visitation be professionally supervised. That motion
12 was filed and pending for hearing on the 31 51 prior to the time Mr. Rife obtained and filed

8 II. DECLARATION
9 Jennifer Rae Rife should be held in contempt for the following reasons:
10
Failure to comply with the parenting plan as follows:
11
This is the third contempt motion filed for my wife's ongoing refusal to allow residentail
12 time.
13 This is an extreme case of adamant refusal to allow residential time. On November 1, 2005
the court entered an order providing for three visits per week as arranged by the Guardian
14 ad Litem. GAL Bridget Llewellyn established a pattern of Monday and Wednesday from
4:30 to 6:30 p.m., and Saturday from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Ms. Llewellyn also
15 established a "delivering parent" rule, though the transfer of the child has been handled by
other extended family members to assure no direct contact between my wife and me. My
16 deliveries have been handled exclusively by my mother, Wendy Rife. My wife's deliveries
have been handled by her mother (carol Holland), by her sister (Lisa Brunsman) and her
17 brother in law (Michael Brunsman).
18 On Friday, July 7, 2006, my estranged wife's motion for an immediate order requiring my
residential time to be professionally supervised or suspended was denied. Immediately
19 after that ruling from Commissioner Stewart, my wife's lawyer informed my lawyer that the
residential time for the following day would be denied. My lawyer wrote her lawyer
20 suggesting the decision be reconsidered 1• There has been no response to that letter.
21 On Saturday, July 8, 2006 my daughter was not delivered as required. An Order to Show
cause re contempt was obtained for that denial of residential time. On Monday, July 10,
22 2006 my lawyer wrote suggesting make up time. On July 10 my lawyer wrote again
informing my wife's lawyer that the July 8 residential time did not occur and that residential
23 time was scheduled for the afternoon of July 10. That residential time did occur, as did the
residential time on Wednesday, July 12.

1 time was scheduled for the afternoon of July 10. That residential time did occur, as did the
residential time on Wednesday, July 12.
2
On July 14, 2006 my wife's attorney wrote claiming that visitation is now "impossible" based
3 on restraining orders obtained by my mother and by me. My mother obtained an order of
protection from unlawful harassment based upon unnecessary and unpleasant
4 communication from Jennifer Rife. I obtained an order of protection from unlawful
harassment based upon stalking by Carol Holland. Hearings on both matters were set for
5 July 21, 2006. There is no order limiting contact by Lisa Brunsman or Michael Brunsman.
My attorney wrote back to her suggesting transfer between the grandmothers someplace
6 other than my home as Carol Holland is mandated to remain at least 300 feet from my
home. Ms. Dyer has not responded to that letter.
7
On July 17, 2006 the GAL sent a letter (dated July 15, 2006) suggesting a simple means for
8 the transfers to occur, by having the two grandmothers meet to exchange the child. There
has been no response to that letter.
9
On July 18, 2006 Ms. Dyer left a message about continuance of the District Court hearing
10 on the Unlawful Harassment actions. My attorney responded by letter the same day
agreeing to continuance if an agreed order was signed resuming the residential time and
11 making up the missed time. Ms. Dyer did not respond, but she did have her partner, Mr.
Primont, appear for her at that hearing.
12
On July 21 GAL Bridget Llewellyn sent another letter mandating resumption of visitation.
13 She decreed that the exchange would occur at the Everett Police Station, with Jennifer to
deliver and my brother's wife Stacey to receive my daughter for me. Stacey was there on
14 Saturday, July 22, 2006 from 10:55 to 11:15 a.m. to receive my daughter, but Jennifer did
not appear. Stacey was there again on Monday, July 24, 2006, from 4:25 to 4:45 p.m. but
15 Jennifer did not appear and the residential time was again denied. My attorney has
received a copy of Ms. Llewellyn's letter of July 24, 2006 which mentions Ms. Dyer's
16 telephone message responding to her July 21 letter.
20 My wife's declaration of October 2005 states that "I am asking that the court to order that
there be no visitation until he has completed at least 60 days of treatment at Family
21 Services and has received positive monthly progress reports."
22 The court's order of November 1, 2005 does not contain any requirements consistent with
my wife's request.
23
My wife filed another declaration, December 2, 2005, in which she states "He should be in
24 treatment and in full compliance in order to have any visits with Lauren."

1 There have been communications among the attorneys and the GAL on these topics, but no
pleadings with the court, until this month. In support of the July 7, 2006 motion my wife's
2 declaration states "With Andy not in treatment and only being supervised by his mother I
am very concerned for our daughter's safety (both emotional and physical) while in his care.
3 His time must be professionally supervised or suspended altogether." After the court
denied that motion without prejudice, yet another motion was filed, this time omitting
4 suspension, but requesting "father's visitation to be professionally supervised pending trial
in this matter." This time my wife signs a July 13, 2006 declaration in which she claims
5 "He is currently not in any treatment program, contrary to the recommendation s of the
GAL in our case."
6-
Jennifer continues to make the same or similar allegations. Her position has not changed.
7 She does not recognize my involvement with DV treatment providers. She simply pretends
that the treatment I received had no effect.
8
Jennifer does not recognize that the court's order has not changed. I am still entitled to
g three visits per week as arranged by the GAL. She refuses to comply with that order.
10 I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the state of Washington that the foregoing is
true and correct.

I read your fax of this afternoon with some sense of wonderment. One would think that
somehow Wendy Rife wanting to enforce her right to be free from harassment constitutes a waiver
by Andrew Rife of his right to visitation. I don't follow the logic. Likewise, from your fax one would
think that Andrew Rife is somehow at fault for objecting to being stalked. I don't follow that logic,
either.
There is nothing in any order preventing the two grandmothers from having contact. Wendy
Rife will be perfectly happy to walk down the street to accept the child from Carol Holland so she will
remain at least 300 feet from Mr. Rite's home. If there is a desire to solve problems, this is easy to
arrange and hardly requires any imagination. On the other hand, if the real purpose is to prevent
the visitation, any convenient excuse will do. Alternatively, transfers could occur atthe Everett Police
Department. It is the only local department whose office is open 24/7. Certainly Mr. Rife will be
happy to provide constructive responses to other constructive suggestions.
Yours truly

Re: RIFE
I realize that this will only come about if the Grandmothers agree to it. Since neither is a party
to the action I am hoping that these two marure women can commwticate as they have been able to in
the past and we can move forward again.

11 I believe this is the third letter I have sent in Re: visitation or the lack thereof There bas
been no acknowledgment of my correspondence thus far.
12
Visitation shall resume immediately. I believe that it is up to Jennifer to make the child
13
available and since I understand that her sister and her mother do not wish to be involved
14 and there are Restrdining Orders in place, Stacey will meet Jennifer at the Everett Police
Department fur pick up and drop off. There will be no other individuals involved.
15
As a side note and for your infortoation, it is my understanding that Mr. Rife will finish
16 his Parenting Class this coming week and will commence his Domestic Violence
Treatment at Catholic Comm1mity Service also this coming week.
17
Again, I stress that stopping and starting visitation is not in the best interest of this child.
18 Like all children, she needs consistency in her schedule.

Re: RIFE
Mr. Osborn was asked to do a Risk Assessment and did so. He found that Mr. Rife is not a
risk to the community. Mr. Osborn will now be monitoring Mr. Rife until his two (2) year is up.
As far as Municipal Court is concerned he has satisfied all of his terms and he is done.
I asked if there would be anything in writing and was told "no" but the docket is available. It
is now up to Family Court to proceed as they see fit.
I am simply sharing the information with you both. I am sure you will both let me know what,
if anything, you choose to do with it, in due time.

II. DECLARATION
7
Jennifer Rae Rife should be held in contempt for the following reasons:
8 Failure to comply with the parenting plan as follows: By denying residential time on
July 15, 17, and 19, 2006.
9
This order was violated in the following manner:
10
11 Under the exiSting order of November 1, 2005, I am entitled to residential time three times
per week as determined by the GAL. The GAL has established the times as being Mondays
12 and Wednesdays from 4:30-6:30 p.m., and Saturdays from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
13 Under the temporary parenting arrangement we have a "delivering parent" rule: Jennifer Rife
is responsible to deliver our daughter to me at my residence at the commencement of my
14 residential time, then I am responsible to deliver our daughter to her at the commencement
of her residential time. Jennifer never comes to my home, instead she has a member of her
15 family handle the delivery for her. I have never been told where Jennifer resides and she has
me deliver to her parents' home. The delivery is made to other family members (her mother
16 carol Holland, her father Steve Holland, her sister Lisa Brunsman, her brother-in-law Michael
Brunsman) as Jennifer is generally not visible.
17
On July 6, 2006 my lawyer received a fax from opposing counsel that he would appear on
18 July 7, 2006 in ex parte department to request an immediate order which would either
require my visitation with my daughter to be professionally supervised or be suspended
19 altogether.
20 Commissioner Stewart heard argument. During the argument Mr. Primont mentioned the
unlawful harassment order obtained by my mother. Commissioner Stewart denied immediate
21 relief and he denied the requested order to show cause, leaving the existing residential time
arrangement in place without change. I left the courthouse while a handwritten order was
22 being prepared. An order was signed by Commissioner Stewart.
23 Mr. Primont told my lawyer in the presence of the GAL that the next day's visit (Saturday, July
8, 2006) would not occur. Ms. Llewellyn volunteered to handle the exchange of the child
24 herself. Both Jennifer and her sister Lisa had declined her offer.

1 Lauren was delivered to my home on July 10 and July 12 by carol Holland, Jennifer's mother.
I am informed through counsel that carol Holland declines to be involved in future transfers,
2 but my wife and her attorney have declined to respond to communications about visitation
from my attorney and the GAL.
3
Jennifer Rife simply refuses to obey the court's order. She came to court with a request and
4 the court denied that request. Then she granted herself the relief the court had just denied.
5 My lawyer's letter of July 10, 2006 invited Mr. Primont and his client to schedule make up
time to compensate for the time lost on July 8, 2006. No response has been received to that
6 invitation. Instead, my estranged wife has simply refused visitation again.
7
I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the state of Washington that the foregoing is
a true and correct.

1 settlement discussions continued for the balance of the morning. The first
issue addressed was parenting plan. It had always been the most contentious
2 issue, and we needed to resolve it to be able to resolve the other issues in the
divorce. Discussions focused on trying to identify the concerns of each
3 participant and attempting to find methods of accommodating each other's
concerns. The effort was successful. With the parenting plan resolved, there
4 was little further area for controversy. we settled upon the remaining issues.
we agreed to "guidelines" child support without specifying a dollar amount,
5 and we agreed that my wife would sign a quitclaim deed to assure that title
to my separate property house is not clouded. I agreed to pay $18,500 to Ms.
6 over as my contribution to my wife's fees. Ms. over left the group for a few
minutes in order to call her client, who was not present during these
7 discussions. Ms. over reported that Jennifer Rife agreed to all the terms of
the agreement, and we had a deal. The notes Ms. over had been writing were
8 signed and initialed, copies distributed, and the deal was done.
9 There were a few housekeeping details. My attorney was to produce the
Findings of Fact and conclusions of Law, Decree of Dissolution of Marriage,
10 Quitclaim Deed and Excise Tax Declaration. Ms. Dyer was to prepare the
Parenting Plan and the Order of Child Support. To save the cost of getting Ms.
11 over from Seattle, my attorney and I agreed to present formal proof.
12 Ms. over received my lawyer's Findings of Fact and conclusions of Law and
Decree of Dissolution of Marriage. I provided a cashier's check payable to Ms.
13 over for $18,500 to my lawyer. He is still holding that check. Ms. over wrote
requesting two detail changes, which we agreed to. A revised set was sent to
14 her, which she has approved for entry.
15 When Ms. over's draft documents were received there were problems with
them. The largest problem was that Ms. over included among her documents
16 an order of protection from domestic violence, which had not been discussed
at all during the negotiations and it is not mentioned in the notes of the
17 settlement negotiations. Since it was outside the scope of the agreement, my
attorney objected to including a restraining order as a part of the final
18 documents 1• Additionally, in the Parenting Plan she had inserted an exchange
place which was a dangerous choice, Mccollum Park 2 • No specific exchange
19 place was included in our settlement, and the place she selected will soon be
a dark and unpopulated secluded place for the exchange. I was unwilling to
20 agree to that location. There is no present agreement concerning the
exchange place, but 1am hopeful that Ms. Llewellyn will help us establish an
21
22 1
My wife filed a DV action about the same time as the divorce was filed. That
23 action has now been dismissed.
2
24 Neither my wife nor I have any desire to go to the other's home, nor to have
the other at our respective homes. While we agree that the exchange place should not
25 be at either home, we have not been able to settle upon the middle ground for the
exchanges.

1 acceptable place.
2 For child support we had Ms. over's draft Order of Child support erroneously
computed my Federal Income Tax at S/04 and did not consider my social
3 security substitute at all 3 • These omissions caused her calculation of support
to be about $120 more than the amount under the temporary order. Ms.
4 Dyer also did not include the special expense of supervision, which is over
$2600 per month.
5
our trial date was August 21, 2006. Because both sides believed that we had
6 a settlement, trial did not occur. The matter was continued for settlement
only. on August 21, 2006 Ms. Dyer wrote" ...Jenn is coming in and will sign the
7 Quit Claim Deed and Excise Tax Affidavit. I will provide you with a copy and
will forward the originals when I get the amended Decree and Findings."

The forms of Parenting Plan and Order of support Ms. Dyer provided were not

answered.

At the time set for deposition of Mr. Rife we reached an oral settlement. I agreed to
prepare the Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law, Decree of Dissolution of Marriage,
Quitclaim Deed and Excise Tax Declaration. Those documents are enclosed. You agreed to
prepare the parenting plan and Child Support Order. I enclose a copy of Mr. Rife's
7/31/2006 paystub to assist in drafting the support order. I trust that the documents are
forthcoming. Mr. Rife and I agreed to appear for formal proof to save you and Mrs. Rife the
inconvenience and expense of appearing for trial.
It has taken both of us more time than we probably expected to draft documents and
trial is set for next Monday. In Snohomish County we can readily obtain a continuance of
a couple of weeks for settlement only, which might be convenient in this case. Let me know.
Lastly, my client hopes to be able to pay the $18,500 in a single lump sum at or
before the entry of decree. For that reason there is no mention of attorney fees in these
documents. Should he not be able to obtain so much money by the time of entry, of course
the judgment will be added.
Yours truly

I have reviewed your proposed edits to the Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law
and Decree of Dissolution of Marriage. Your suggestions have been incorporated.
I have in my office Mr. Rife's cashier's check payable to you alone in the amount of
$18,500. As usual, I am authorized to forward the check as soon as I have the complete set
of closing documents in hand.
I expect to respond concerning the parenting plan and the child support order you
drafted tomorrow. We will have some differences, but I do not expect them to be
insurmountable.

Initially, I attempted to verify the computation of Mrs. Rife's income. I revisited the
child support worksheets you provided. I do not find the $700 amount listed for income tax
to be credible. I used my Support Cale Circular E calculation for Single 2. Self employment
tax is not included in the worksheets you submitted, so I simply doubled the FICA amount.
I have no reason to believe that Mrs. Rife contributes to any pension plan, so I have not
included that deduction.
Concerning Mr. Rife's income, at long last I have been able to connect with the right
person at the PUD to explain Mr. Rife's paystub. Partly it says what I expected, partly not.
You can verify what I am saying in this letter by contacting Dana at 425 783 8735.
Mr. Rife's filing status (Single/ 04) is erroneous. He should be withholding at Single
1. He is currently changing the withholding status. The worksheets I submit are based upon
correct withholding.
Working from Mr. Rife's 7/31/06 paystub, I learned that the Flex Reduction relates
to a smorgasbord of benefits. In Dana's list there were both deductible and nondeductible
items. I believe Mr. Rife's Flex selections are all nondeductible for child support purposes.
I learned that the PERS2 deduction is mandatory, Mr. Rife's contrary assertion in response
to your interrogatories was erroneous. The PERS2 deduction is included at the full amount
as a deduction because of its mandatory nature. Mr. Rife's 40 lK deduction is included at
$167.00 as it is voluntary. The total of the PERS2 and 401K is reflected in the Pension Plan
Payments line item.
If one completely disregards the supervision costs Mr. Rife is paying, guidelines
support is a modest increase from $544 to $562. Mr. Rife authorized me to offer to settle
support at $562, upon the condition that so long as he is incurring supervision costs there
will be no liability for items normally found on lines 8 and 9 of the worksheets beyond the
medical insurance cost already there. Once the supervision is discontinued, the lines 8 and
9 factors should be treated in the ordinary manner.
If Mrs. Rife wants to include lines 8 and 9 factors, Mr. Rife will reciprocate. Mr. Rife
is incurring special child rearing expenses for supervision of his residential time. He pays
Mr. Layton $110 per hour for two hours per week, and he pays Judy $40 per hour. Of late
he has been getting the Layton time, and two hour visits twice per week owing in part to Ms.
•

Dyer's scheduling difficulties. Mr. Rife is entitled to twelve hours per week. The supervision
doubtless is intended to benefit the child. The supervision cost works out to a monthly
figure as follows:
Mr. Rife's child support obligation works out to be $25.00 per month if his supervision
cost is more than $1618 per month.
Mr. Rife's solution is to set support at • per month. A form of order and
worksheets is faxed with this letter.

In re the Marriage of:

ANDREWS. RIFE, NO. 05-3-02755-1
11
Petitioner,
12 and DECLARATION IN RESPONSE TO
MOTION FOR PRESENTATION
13 JENNIFER R. RIFE,
Respondent.
14
15
I am the attorney of record for Jennifer Rife, the Respondent above. The Petitioner has
16
filed a motion for presentation in what I believe is also a motion to enforce our CR2a agreement.
17
Attached to this declaration you will find our proposed parenting plan, order of child support and
18
child support worksheet. You will also find Mr. Gaul's proposed Decree and Findings, which I
19 have previously signed.
20 This was a very long and litigious case and frankly we did not expect it to settle. There is
21 a history of domestic violence and the father has continued to be in denial about this issue right
22 up to the end. The settlement came about at Mr. Rife's deposition, which I was taking in
23 preparation for trial. As can be seen from our written settlement document, attached as Exhibit
24 A and incorporated by this reference, we did not conduct formal settlement negotiations. We
25 tried hard to take advantage of the sudden willingness to settle and hammer out the agreements
26 necessary to get this matter done and behind us. That was not to be the case.
27 The agreement was I would draft the parenting plan and child support order and Mr. Gaul
28 would draft the Decree and Findings. I did and sent my proposals to him on August 28, 2006.
29 We have had a series ofletters back and forth. As a result of those letters and information I have t/!J
30 made modifications to the order of support and parenting plan. But, I feel that I have gone as far J

1 as I can go in acqmescmg to their demands without watering down the prov1s1ons of the
2 parenting plan. It seems most of the difference has to do with simple difference in language. We
3 all know what is meant and we all know it can be said a variety of ways.· To continue to write
4 back and forth because they disagree with the use of a certain phrase or word is a waste of
5 attorney fees at some juncture. It seems we have gone as far as we can go and we need the court
6 to decide which parenting plan and order of child support to sign.
7 There is no basis for any deviation in child support for Mr. Rife. His own long history of
8 domestic violence, including multiple arrests with Ms. Rife as his victim, as well as the fact that
9 he continued to deny this history and contest custody of this child right up to the end has resulted
10 in a GAL recommendation that he continue to have supervised visitation. Had he openly and
11 honestly engaged in treatment in the beginning when he was arrested and first ordered into
12 treatment (May 2005) he would have been done by now and supervision would have likely
13 ceased for him. Instead he is still in Phase One of his treatment program at his fourth treatment
14 agency. The cost involved in supervised visitation should not be a basis for any deviation.
15 Mr. Rife has provided only two pay stubs for all of 2006 and both are attached. I have
16 calculated his income by using his year to date income and adding back in the pre tax items that
17 are denoted on his paystub with an asterisk then dividing that by 7, since his pay was through
18 July 31 ". Jenn's income so far in 2006 is far below what she made in 2005 and is far below
19
imputed income. For purposes of settlement I have left her income as it was in the prior order of
child support which is something we apparently agree on.
20
The GAL has filed her report and it is in the file. This parenting plan is based on her
21
report and our settlement negotiations. The GAL was present during these negotiations. Our
22
proposed parenting plan represents a fair and accurate recitation of our agreements and should be
23
adopted by the court.
24
I declare under penalty of perjury of the laws of the state of Washington that the
25
foregoing is true and correct. Signed this 2"d_ day of November 2006 in Seattle, Washington.

and
10 DECLARATION OF ANDREW RIFE
Jennifer Rae Rife
11 Respondent.
12
I, Andrew Rife, declare under penalty of perjury of the laws of the State of
13 Washington, that the following is true and correct.
14 I. SUMMARY OF RESPONSE
15 This action should be dismissed. The present request for a restraining order is not
based on any recent facts. The substance of the present petition is to amend the decree
16 of dissolution of marriage entered by agreement on November 7, 2006. There is no basis
or relief from the agreed orders.
17
18 II. DECREE SHOULD BE ENFORCED
19 We settled this case on November 7, 2006 by entry of a decree of dissolution of
marriage.
20
This divorce was active from October 2005 until late summer 2006. There were
21 settlement discussions on August 7, 2006. At the time set for my deposition the GAL
announced that she thought the case should settle. Though I did not think a settlement
22 was possible, my attorney and I participated in discussions that appeared to be successful.
My attorney and I thought that we had reached an agreement to finalize the divorce. Jan
23 Dyer did not sign and return the closing documents submitted to her. So we filed a motion
to enforce the agreement.
24
The motion to enforce the apparent settlement was heard by Judge Castleberry.
25 Judge Castleberry orally denied the motion to enforce the attempted settlement agreement

1 because that the parties had not reached a full agreement on all issues. But he also
recognized that the differences between the two sides were not great. He encouraged both
2 sides to step out and attempt to resolve those outstanding issues. Judge Castleberry told
us that the motions calendar is not a trial, and consequently he would not decide any
3 contested issue, such as to determine the exact amount of guidelines child support. He
assured us that he would happily take formal proof and finalize the divorce if we did reach
4 a complete settlement.
5 We stepped out to negotiate. The attorneys and GAL Bridget Llewellyn were in a
conference room, going over their differences and finding solutions. The negotiations were
6 successful. Immediately after reaching our settlement and signing the documents, we
appeared again before Judge Castleberry. Judge Castleberry questioned both Jennifer
7 and me to be sure we understood what we were doing and that we each wanted to do it.
We both assured him that we understood, and that we desired to resolve our divorce with
8 the closing documents which were presented to him.
18 Jennifer alleges no new facts pertaining to domestic violence involving me, involving
her or involving our daughter. Jennifer fails to state that she never even requested any
19 order requiring me to be involved in any domestic violence perpetrator's treatment program
until Commissioner Waggoner entered such an order at the end of July 2006 1. Throughout
20 the time this case was pending, Jennifer and her attorney complained to the superior court
commissioners and to the guardian ad !item that I was out of compliance with the
21 requirements of the Municipal Court even though the Municipal Court was satisfied with my
compliance with its orders.
22
24
1
There was an order requiring me to be in domestic violence perpetrator's treatment in the
25 Everett Municipal Court. The Municipal Court has determined that I have complied with that requirement
and there is no requirement of any further treatment.

1
DV Perpetrator's Treatment. I have never denied my own domestic violence. I think
2 that Jennifer's complaint is based on my refusal to take all the blame for the breakdown of
our marriage. Her explosive temper and her alcoholism had a lot to do with it. For this she
3 claims I am blaming my victim. She misses the point deliberately.
21 2
See attached September 29, 2005 letter from Steven M. Altabef. His letter is inconsistent with
ennifer's current claim that abuse was increasing during the summer of 2005. Her drinking was
22 escalating during that period.
3
23 I have since learned that the staff at Davis and Company is not licensed to provide DV
treatment. When the company was sold the licensure was not automatically transferred. If I had stayed
24 with Davis and Company I would have had to change programs when the licensing problem was
discovered.
25 4
The prosecution did not offer that letter to the court.

1 Devore. It has also determined that I have satisfied the domestic violence perpetrator's
treatment portion of the SOC.
2
Thereafter, I signed up with Catholic Community Services on a voluntary basis
3 because I thought I could use additional education on the subject of domestic violence. I
arranged this to satisfy the GAL before Commissioner Waggoner's ruling and before the
4 August 7, 2006 attempted settlement. My first regular weekly meeting was on August 12,
2006.
5
Catholic Community Services has declined to allow credit for the time I was with
6 Charles Devore, and also grants no credit for the time I was with Davis & Co., Summit
Counseling or Dale Todd. I think that is an unfair position, and I have expressed this to the
7 administration there. To my knowledge, this is the only source of Ms. Poier's comment that
I was "fighting" the program there.
8
Spat with Carol & Steve Holland. This is just an ugly incident telling more about the
9 depths of enmity than anything else. It certainly tells nothing about domestic violence.
10 Jennifer's parents were at court on November 7, 2006. When I arrived at court that
morning, GAL Bridget Llewellyn told me to ignore Carol Holland who was giving me dirty
11 looks. I told her I intended to ignore Carol Holland's presence.
12 After the negotiations were over, and Judge Castleberry had finalized the divorce,
my attorney and I were leaving court. As I stepped out of the court Jennifer's parents,
13 Steve and Carol Holland, were standing in the hallway. Carol made eye contact with me.
I responded to that eye contact by saying "See you, folks." Carol responded by hissing at
14 me that she hoped to never see me again. Since I am the father of her granddaughter, the
likelihood of that is slight. I turned back to her and gave her a piece of my mind. Steve,
15 who was standing behind Carol from where I was standing, yelled at me "Fuck you, Andy."
I responded to Steve that if he had something to say to me he could come talk to me any
16 time, and that he did not need to hide behind his wife when he says it. At that point my
lawyer came by and told me to come with him. My lawyer certainly never "grabbed" me as
17 Jennifer colorfully claims. And, I never assumed a fighting stance and I never made any
ighting gestures. My lawyer and I went to the law library. Carol Holland came into the
18 library and scowled at me as she made additional eye contact, but was silent.

~----- - -- -- ----- - - - - - -
1 Jennifer claims the judge made comments about the reasons why my mother and
I brought the cases. My recollection differs from Jennifer's. I do not remember him
2 impugning the reasons for bringing the cases, though it was obvious to everyone that there
as a highly contentious divorce case.
3
Child Support. I don't know where Jennifer is getting her legal advice on this
4 subject. After I read her declaration I looked at RCW 26.09.060 and found that her legal
position is wrong. The support due November 1, 2006 under the temporary order remained
5 due when the divorce was finalized. She claims I have "refused to pay child support for
November" as though I have any control over it. My child support is deducted from my
6 paychecks, just like everybody else's. I have no control over what may be deducted as this
is determined by orders from the Division of Child Support. Support has continued to be
7 deducted from my paychecks. I am attaching copies of the two paychecks for November,
check pay dates November 7, 2006 and November 22, 2006.
8
The support under the decree commences the first day of the first month following
9 entry of the decree. The date December 1, 2006 is interlineated by Ms. Dyer. If Jennifer
has a problem with the support, perhaps she should address that problem to Ms. Dyer or
10 to the Division of Child Support, but once it is deducted from my paycheck, my involvement
is concluded. My employer has done its part by making the deduction. Beyond that I am
11 not responsible.
12 Jennifer hyperbolizes: "He is not worried about Lauren and I having no money he
is just thinking about how he can get back at me." If she is on public assistance as she
13 claimed, she assigned her right to receive support to the state and she would lose only the
$50 pass through if I were to fail to pay. The entire statement has no truth: it is intended
14 only to inflame.
15
IV. DISQUALIFY MS. DYER
16
I have been aware that Jennifer signs declarations using vocabulary she would not
17 ordinarily use, and specifically saying things that are not true. For example, her recitations
of how terrible and violent I was become more exaggerated over time. Ms. Dyer has filed
18 as attachment 12 to Jennifer's declaration her own declaration concerning unlawful
harassment actions my mother and I had to file last summer.
19
Ms. Dyer has now conflated her roles as an advocate and now as a witness. The
20 court must now judge her personal credibility as well as the merits of the cause she
advocates. She should not be permitted to be both a witness and an advocate. She has
21 made herself a witness. She should no longer be allowed to be an advocate in this cause.
22
V. ATTORNEY FEES & COSTS
23
I have been wrongly required to defend this motion. It is brought in bad faith. I am
24 asking the court to impose a sufficient cost on both Jennifer and her attorney to
compensate me for the cost and also sufficient to discourage future similar misconduct.
25 Jennifer refers to "economic terrorism" when she makes her false claim concerning the
26

1604 Hewitt Ave.
DECLARATION OF ANDREW RIFE Everett WA 98201
Page 5 425 259-4147 FAX 259 7081
1 child support. I want the court to remember that she brings this baseless bad faith motion
as a form of litigation terrorism.
2
The bad faith is evident from a number of facts. For examples:
3
1. This action was filed even though contrary to the terms of the agreed
4 settlement of our divorce.
2. This action was served on me on Wednesday, the day before Thanksgiving,
5 making my response due by noon on the Tuesday following Thanksgiving,
which is the third business day following service. The timing bespeaks an
6 intent to shorten the time available for consultation with my attorney and a
desire to make less joyful the holiday.
7 3. Jennifer brought this action without any factual basis. She makes no
reference to any act of domestic violence occurring since the time the divorce
8 was filed. She brought this action without reference to any act of domestic
violence occurring since her prior DV case was dismissed by Judge Wynne
9 on October 10, 2006. She brought this action without reference to any act
of domestic violence occurring since the decree was entered on November
10 7, 2006.
4. Jennifer lies. She claims to be on public assistance and going to school, but
11 she still advertises herself on the internet for her mobile notary service. She
also lies when she claims I have refused to pay support and when she claims
12 to have not received any child support in November.
13 I will be charged about $2000.00 for about 9 hours of lawyer time in representation
on this post-decree matter. I am asking the court to grant judgment in the full amount
14 against Jennifer and also against her attorney. I have my doubts that I will ever be paid by
Jennifer. Imposing the cost against Ms. Dyer will help dissuade future similar misconduct.

• The issues has been raised by Mr. Rife's attorney several tbnes
and much investigation has been done but Mr. Rife 's visitation
with his daughter is still supervised and not overnight.
So now our .GAL has insisted that Andy get into a program
that is compliant with the WAC and that operates in a group
therapy setting (as mandated by the WACs) versus individual
sessions (forbidden by the WACs but what Mr. De Vore does).
He has switched programs but now/ understand he wants
advanced standing because of all the time he has already been
in treatnient. I urge you to argue strongly against this. HE
SHOULD NOT GET CREDIT FOR SOMETHING HE HAS
NOT DONE. A 12 month DVprogram mandates that Phase I
be weekly group sessions. Andy has never done this and
should certainly not he given credit for it now. All he has done
it to try to avoid treatment. Davis and Co. tried to hold him

Jen and I have worked very hard to get the matter this far and
us
we are trusting that you will not let down. Mr. Rife needs to
be in a real WAC compliant treatment program. The reality is
he has gone a year and still has not really done treatment.
Been kicked out at Davis and Co, and then went to an
unqualified treatment center. Looks like noncompliance to

Re: Rife
Dear Don,
I have supervised a few of the visits myself as of late due to Judy's illness and I
agree with your observations that Andy is demonstrating more than adequate
Parenting Skills.
It makes sense that we put your skills to better use as you suggest and that we
try to work toward some Co-Parenting skills and so please know that you have
my support in this and that I too would like to meet with Sandy Poirer. Maybe we
could do that together so that we are all getting the same information at the same
time.
I will leave it up to you to schedule your meetings with Andy and Jennifer. Move
forward at your own pace and let me know when things are in place.
I also agree that the visits should be extended to three hours and I can speak
with them about this if you would like.
As you know Judy is still out on sick leave and I do not expect her to return full
time until in the latter part of December. I cannot commit her to anything until
2
BRIDGET LLEWELLYii ....................................... Qi il°o:i" ............ .
such time as she has been cleared to return to work by her M.D. I am doing my
best to fill in the gaps and provide the visitation but with my caseload being what
it is my hands are full so I cannot promise as to when the extended time can
start.
Thank you for your hard work and investment in this case.
Respectfully,
LL_

(a) A lawyer shall not act as advocate at a trial in which the lawyer is

[1] Combining the roles of advocate and witness can prejudice the
tribunal and the opposing party and can also involve a conflict of
interest between the lawyer and client.
Advocate-Witness Rule
[2] The tribunal has proper objection when the trier of fact may be
confused or misled by a lawyer serving as both advocate and witness. The
opposing party has proper objection where the combination of roles may
prejudice that party's rights in the litigation. A witness is required to
testify on the basis of personal knowledge, while an advocate is expected
to explain and comment on evidence given by others. It may not be clear
whether a statement by an advocate-witness should be taken as proof or as
an analysis of the proof.

[ 4] Apart from these two exceptions, paragraph (a) (3) recognizes that a
balancing is required between the interests of the client and those of the
tribunal and the opposing party. Whether the tribunal is likely to be
misled or the opposing party is likely to suffer prejudice depends on the
nature of the case, the importance and probable tenor of the lawyer's
testimony, and the probability that the lawyer's testimony will conflict
with that of other witnesses. Even if there is risk of such prejudice, in
determining whether the lawyer should be disqualified, due regard must be
given to the effect of disqualification on the lawyer's client. It is
relevant that one or both parties could reasonably foresee that the lawyer
would probably be a witness. The conflict of interest principles stated in
Rules 1.7, 1.9 and 1.10 have no application to this aspect of the problem.

FOR SNOHOMISH COUNTY N 0: 05-3-00314-8 .

10 JENNIFER R. RIFE, 8/18/74
11 Petitioner DOB DECLARATION OF PETITIONER IN
18 incorporated by their reference herein. An index to those pleadings is attached. Andy Rife and
I were married and we have a child in common. The divorce essentially started when Andy was
19
arrested for the second time in Jess than six months on a domestic violence related charge. I
20
obtained a temporary protection order at that time and Andy filed for a divorce.
21
For reasons that I have never understood the court reissued my temporary protection
22 order month after month, (exhibit 14). There was never any real question that I would have a
23 protection order but the way it started out"it just kept getting reissued. Finally in April we were in
24 court again on the re-issuance of the protection order in front of Commissioner Stewart. Our
25 trial was set for mid August. The court gave us the choice of having it issue a full protection
26 order at that time or reissue to the trial date.
27 Since we believed that this case was going to trial 'we opted to reissue the protection
order to the trial date so that we could present the evidence all at once and with live testimony.

When I say that I believed the case was going to go fo trial I don't mean to sound like I was not
29
willing to settle. We believed it was going to trial because, although Andy had been arrested

about his abuse and continued to blame everything. on me. He continued, right up to two weeks

29 smart remark to them. calling my sister and me cancers. They have had it with Andy and do not
like him very much and my father responded that Andy should basically bug off. Andy turned
30

Se.a.ttle., WA 98102
(206)343-1528
towards my father and took a fighting stance. He gestured for him to "bring it on" so to speak.
2 My father, realizing what was happening, told Andy that he was not going to fight with him and
3 turned away. At about that time Andy's attorney grabbed him and got him out of the area.
.. I
4
h e attached my prior declarations as well as information I provided to my therapist that details
5
Andy abuse during our marriage, (exhibits 1, 2 and 3). Even after I called the police he came
6
right bac and continued the abuse and always blaming it all on me. He lied to me about his
7
avis and Company and it was not until much later that I learned he had been
8 heir program. I had a very small baby at the time and was totally dependant
9 on Andy. He took II advantage of this and continued his abuse. It all culminated in his being
.10 arrested for violating t Criminal No Contact Order. Our divorce was filed and l sought and
11 ion order, (exhibit 13).
12 Andy was under cou rder by the Municipal Court to be in treatment. In October of
2005 he started treatment with C ck Devore however Mr. Devore's ireatment program was not
13
compliant with the WACS governin V treatment programs and Andy was forced to change
14
treatment programs. He did not like this. He went back to the Municipal Court, without notice to
15
any of us in the dissolution case, and obta ed an order there saying that he should get credit
16 for the time he was working at Mr. Devore's pr ram, even though it was not in compliance with
17 state law. The GAL disagreed and was insisting t Andy be in a compliant program. He did
18 switch to Phoenix Counseling with Dale Todd but re ed to let the issue of credit for his time
) 19 with Mr. Devore go. Ultimately Dale Todd refused to g1 him credit and Andy was removed
from his treatment program, (exhibit 6).
~20
At that point Andy's behavior was really getting bad. s showing up at our visitation
\) 21
exchanges and sitting in his mom's car. He would make faces or y with the instruments on
~ 22
the car to draw attention to himself. It was a violation of the Protection
23
to work out a parenting plan and I was trying to be patient. The GAL w working hard with
24
Andy trying to get him to change his attitude but with apparently no success.
25 In July, just a month or so before our trial, Andy and his mother Wendy
26 District Court, knowing we were next door in superior court, and obtained two Anti
27 Orders; Andy against my mother and Wendy Rife against me. I could not believe the II
28 put in their petitions, (exhibits 1 O and 11 ). We had our full hearing and the judge said they

He started a new DV treatment program at Catholic Community Services in August of
8 2006. He was first ordered into treatment in May of 2005. It is now the end of November of
9 2006 and Andy has still not completed Phase I of any DV treatment program. As required by
10 law, the treatment program has been in touch with me. They have been quite concerned
11 because Andy continues to blame me and seems unable to shift his focus. He also is
12 apparently continuing to argue that he should be given credit for the time he worked with Chuck
Devore. His most recent progress report indicates that they had to have a talk with him about
13
"fighting against doing the program" (exhibit 4). It seems clear that nothing has changed.
14
As I mentioned above, Andy has "therapeutic visitation supervision" with Don Layton.
15
Don has made it quite clear to me that Andy is fixated on blaming me and clearing his name.
16 Mr. Layton notes that Andy needs, "to be mindful of the submerged mass of toxic resentment he
17 harbors towards Jennifer/her mother ... " (Exhibit 5).
18 The reasons for entering a temporary protection order in 2005 and reissuing it until
19 August of 2005 continue to exist today. Andy continues to be a very angry and dangerous
20 person as it relates to me and our daughter. I am fully committed to working with our Case
Manager and through our parenting plan, (exhibit 8) but I feel strongly that I need an order of
21
protection for both Lauren and me. From my perspective Andy is more dangerous now than he
22
was a year ago. He has never at any time taken any responsibility or been accounexhibitle for
23
his physical abuse during our marriage. He has spent the last year trying to get back at me. He
24 is in his fourth treatment program and still has not been able to complete Phase I.
25 Andy has refused to pay child support for November. Our divorce was granted on
26 November 7, 2006. Our final order of child support states that support, under the final order
27 would begin on October 1, 2006 but that is crossed out and December 1, 2006 is written in. I
28 called the Division of Child Support and was told that the temporary orders ended when the final
29 order was entered so technically Andy does not owe support for November. This type of

1 economic terrorism is typical of Andy. He is not worried about Lauren and I having no money
2 he is just thinking about how he can get back at me.
3 I believe we have a very Jong road ahead of us. Who knows if Andy will ever embrace
his treatment and change his way of thinking. He has had_ many opportunities to do so but has
4
not so far. He continues to blame me for everything and I am very concerned for the safety and
5
wellbeing of our daughter if he continues to think and act the way he is now.
6
I am asking that this protection order be effective until 2011, five years from now. Our
7
daughter will be seven by then. Maybe there will be a miracle before then; I hope so but frankly
8 at this point I am not holding my breath.
9 I should not have had to come to court to obtain this order. Every professional in this
10 case has recommended that there be a protection order. All of the evidence points to Andy's
11 abuse; to his refusal to change his way of thinking and be accounexhibitle for his actions. I am
12 on public assistance and am going to school. I have had to borrow all of my attorney fees from
my parents. I did not receive any child support ($562.00) in November from Andy. I am asking
13
the court to order that Andy pay $3,500.00 for my attorney fees and cost in having to bring this

Re: Rife
Dear Bridgett,
I am thankful that court orders have been finalized on the Rife case; I had an
opportunity to review them last week. To the extent that I have been given an
ongoing therapeutic role relative to parental contact, I would like to make some
suggestions.
It has been my observation that Andrew has demonstrated more than adequate
parenting skills over the three months since I began working with him in a therapeutic
supervision mode. My time and skills would be more effective focused on a different
area of needs. He and I have had several talks along the way about his temper/anger
and domestic violence treatment program. Jennifer, also, has requested my counsel on
several occasions which I have provided; these talks have ranged from parenting advice
to domestic violence concepts to what to expect from children Lauren's age. Andrew
and Jennifer view his anger and the work he is doing differently. Further, Lauren
deserves at least some exploration as to what potential there might be for her parents
to coparent her at some point.
That I assume a therapeutic role aimed at working with each parent (individually
for the time being) to bring them to a more shared understanding of Andrew's
domestic violence treatment process and progress. These would be individual
sessions at my office, twice a month with each parent - more if necessary.
1
.iikibGiit. l.LliW!il.LiiN .... . ................. ·!ll·o·o111YO.i ..
That Andrew provide me with a release to meet with Sandra Poirier and I meet
with her to set up a collaborative relationship as I engage each parent as
described above.
Therapeutic focus would eventually turn to the trust building and communication
skills necessary to coparenting - and an assessment as to whether or not this is
realistic for Andrew and Jennifer.
Given the language in the court ordered parenting plan, Andrew would be expected to
compensate me for my time.
To summarize:
Andrew's investment in my time would provide greater results if I gave over all
supervision duties to Judy and focused on two therapeutic issues: helping Andrew and
Jennifer to arrive at a common understanding of what Andrew is doing to master his
inappropriate compulsive behaviors and what to expect; offering communication skills
aimed at effective coparenting as divorced parents and assessing their potential for
this. I would do this via individual contact with each parent in my office, giving over
the small supervision role I currently have to Judy Dyer. I would establish an ongoing
working relationship with Sandra Poirier. Andrew would pay for my time.
I would like to make these changes as soon as you can let me know whether or not you
support them as the case manager.
On another note . . . Jennifer has recently made known her desire to return the
transfers to the QFC at each end of the visit, a benefit she can reasonably expect to
have supported by Andrew and the rest of us. Due to traffic Issues, these transfers
seriously cut into the amount of quality time Lauren is able to have with her father
during the residential time that falls during the work week. Andrew is open to adding
an hour to each of the weekday visits in order to address this problem. I would like to
recommend that the weekday times be for three hours (flexed to fit Judy's schedule).

7 II. DECLARATION
8 Jennifer Rae Rife should be held in contempt for the following reasons:
9
Failure to comply with the parenting plan as follows:
10
Jennifer LeSourd disallowed our child's residential time with me on Saturday, January 20,
11 2007.
12 Our parenting plan was entered on November 7, 2007. That parenting plan calls for our
daughter to have residential time with me on a supervised basis three times per week. One
13 of those times is on Saturdays.
14 Paragraph 3.1 of the parenting plan provides residential time "On Tuesday and Thursdays
for three (3) hours and on Saturdays for eight (8) hours each week." Paragraph 3.11
15 modifies this provision, " ... Exchanges shall be As per recommendation of case manager.
She has authority to lengthen or shorten the visit times." Since entry of the parenting plan
16 on November 7, 2006 the Saturday times have commenced at 11:00 a.m. The visitation
supervisor has been Judy Dyer, Bridget Llewellyn's assistant.
17
Bridget Llewellyn was the guardian ad litem before the divorce was final. She remains on
18 the case, but with the title of Case Manager under the permanent parenting plan. Bridget
has always communicated with me by telephone, occasionally in writing, but not by e-mail,
19 which she discourages. She checks her email infrequently. To my knowledge she
communicates in the same way with Jennifer LeSourd.
20
On January 12, 2007 Jennifer LeSourd sent an email to Judy Dyer at Bridget Llewellyn's
21 email address in which she expresses dissatisfaction with the Saturday schedule, but does
not suggest an alternative. She also announces that she and her attorney and her therapist
22 have decided that she will communicate with Bridget I Judy only by email.
23 On January 16, 2007 Commissioner Stewart heard a petition for an order of protection filed
by my former wife. (Case 07 2 00022 2) He denied the petition and dismissed it with
24 prejudice. My former wife and her attorney were both visibly upset by that ruling. The
very next day, Tuesday, January 17, 2007, she sent an email in which she announces that

1 the visit will be from 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. There is no reason she would have believed
that her email was actually read by anyone.
2
At 11:00 a.m. on January 20, 2007 I met Judy and we went to the exchange place, the
3 Safeway at Silver Lake. Our daughter was not delivered to the exchange place. Jennifer
LeSourd did not appear. Neither did anyone else who might have our daughter or
4 information about her. Judy called Jennifer LeSourd's cell phone number, leaving a
message. After some discussion with Judy, she and I decided that the visit would not
5 happen, though at that point we did not know why.
6 Nearly two hours later, after I had gone on to do other things, Jennifer LeSourd called Judy
Dyer back. A copy of her email to Bridget Llewellyn after that call is attached.
7
On Monday, January 22, 2007 I had my attorney write to Jan Dyer, Jennifer LeSourd's
B attorney suggesting that make up time be arranged. Copy attached. Ms. Dyer has not
responded to that letter. Since last summer Ms. Dyer has generally not responded to letters
9 from my attorney.
10 I have no alternative but to come to the court for assistance. Jennifer LeSourd had no
reason to believe the case Manager approved of or acquiesced in her choice to change the
11 schedule of residential time. I had no reason to know of her fiat at all. Since she already
knew email was not an effective method of communication, Jennifer LeSourd had no reason
12 to believe her communication had ever even been received by Bridget Llewellyn or Judy
Dyer. I am compelled to come to court or allow my former wife to limit the father-daughter
13 relationship. As a consequence, I am compelled to incur additional attorney fees which
should not be required. I am asking the court to award attorney fees in an amount
14 sufficient to compensate me for the fees incurred, approximately $1500, and also in an
amount sufficient to discourage Jennifer LeSourd from future similar violations.

Bridget-
1 just checked my cell-phone. I have a message from Judy saying I missed visitation today from 11·2pm. I called
her back. I explained that I am not to talk to either one of you by phone only by e-mail. She became rather
argumentative on the phone and angry. I told her I would not argue with her and she basically hung up on me,
before getting out that your e-mail is down and someone is supposed to fix it. If this is true - you should h•ve let
me or my attorney know. I have sent numerous e-mails to you saying this is how our communication to take
place. After sending the below e-mail, and not hearing from you or Judy, I ~ad every reason to believe that 2-5pm
would be acceptable.
It is now barely 1pm - and Judy never even mentioned calling Andy and seeing if 2pm would be okay. She just
angrily asked me if we were still on for Tuesday and Wednesday. Why wouldn't we be?
These kind of phone calls Bridget (where both you and Judy lose your temper) are the reasons for me wanting
everything documented by e-mail.
Jan-
In light of everything going on with Bridget and Judy- I do almost feel uncomfortable doing any exchanges with
either one of them. Judy claims their e-mail doesn't work - but yet she doesn't return your phone calls either. Is
their office phone broken too? Hopefully you can get a hold of Bridget before the next visitation.

I have e-mailed several times about Saturday's visitation time. I agreed to last weeks 11-3pm because it was
short notice, but I do not agree with the following Saturday's being from 11-2pm. She misses her afternoon nap
and this is hard on her. In my previous e-mail, I mentioned how Judy even spoke with me about her being tired
and cranky. So I am going to assume that in the best interest of Lauren that 2-5pm will be agreeable. I need to
hear from you by Spm on Friday, otherwise I will go ahead and take Lauren to the Silver Lake Safeway at 2pm.
Thanks,
Jennifer

I forgot to say - only if Wendy wants to receive the pictures. If she doesn·~ then I won't forward them to you
anymore.
Part of sending them was for you to see Lauren in her home surroundings and with me. Unlike with Andy, you
don't see me very often or with Lauren. You seemed to intimate in your last lener to Jan that I was putting Lauren
and her well-being at rtsl< by asking Judy Dyer to serve Andy. I honesUy didn't think it was a big deal. I didn't tell
Judy to - I asked her to. She said no, and explained why. I then said I understood and that is was no big deal.
This in no way damaged Lauren. I am a wonderful Mother and wouldn't do anything to risk her well-being as you
suggested.
Since you believe I twist words around as you suggested in your most recent letter to Marian, and in the past to
Jan - I would like ALL of our communication to be by e-mail. And only then if necessary.
At this juncture, I wished I hadn't sent you those e-mails. I really don't have anything to prove. It shows for itself.
Lauren is a happy, healthy little gir1 who charms everyone and anyone.
I know Jan will be getting a hold of you soon as I just talked to her regarding the meeting she wants to have. In
light of many things going on - and being Case Manager, don't you suppose that would be good idea?
Communication is always important. Especially between professionals.
Lastiy, I will be starting school at PIMA Medical Institute for a Phlebotomy course starting Jan. 22nd_ That will be
Mon-Thurs 6-1 Opm for 9 weeks. Then I will have a daytime 8 hour extern ship at a hospital. Then of course - I
start my nursing prerequisites at Shoreline Spring quarter. Sy that time I will be able to work as a phlebotomist
part-time at a clinic or hospital.
So - we will have to come up with a way for Lauren to be picked up from visitation. More than likely I will be able
to dmp her off, but not pick her up.

Judy,
Thank you for your message -1 appreciate that you talked with Andy and you guy's found a schedule that suits
you. For now - 3-6pm during the week is fine. Although I have a job interview in Bellevue this week at Overlake
Hospital. so my schedule could very easily change. I will let you know on that I don't agree with Saturday's
schedule. The 11am-2pm that is. Remember we discussed how tired Lauren was being brought back from
visitation without a nap? This was your observation (you said she seemed cranky and tired and asked me about
naps). I think 3-6pm would be a lot easier on Lauren. She's very active and still only 2, so most of the time she
depends on a 1 to 1 °l'> hour nap. Hopefully WE can all get this worked out.
Also, like I've said in previous e-mails, I am responding only by e-mail. This was both mine, my attorney's and my
therapist's idea.
Jennifer
PS - court on Tuesday starts at 1pm. I'm sure ;rs going to be a circus, so we may have to revise the visitation
time. I guess we'll see.

I could send fifty more pictures, but will settle for these.
Perhaps Andy would like to see them as well. He is ALLOWED 14 hours per week
supervised visitation. He has yet to take advantage of that.
ln fact - according to my calender ... It's been more on the average of twice
a week, for two hours.
Hey Brig,

Today I learned that Ms. LeSourd failed to appear for transfer of Lauren at the
commencement of Mr. Rife's residential time on Saturday. Consequently, Lauren was
deprived of three hours residential time with her father.
Ms. LeSourd should pay Ms. Dyer the $120 cost for the time not used due to her
non-appearance.
We propose that this time should be made up by extending Mr. Rife's time by
three hours this coming Saturday. Mr. Rife would also consider an additional 3 hour
visit on a weekday if Ms. LeSourd prefers.
Please do respond promptly as Mr. Rife wants to have a definite plan in place
before the next weekend. I will be reviewing this matter on Friday, January 26, 2007.

It has always been my understanding that the idea of having a Case Manager
was in part to keep the case from continued litigation. In talking with colleagues
who also provide this service that is also their understanding.
For all intents and purposes this case is finished except for the need of the father
to successfully continue his Domestic Violence Treatment and attend the
specified Parenting Classes as outlined in the agreed Parenting Plan.
I will say that I do not believe that it would matter who the Case Manager is in
this case, as long as they have an independent thought process they too will find
themselves in the same position.

•
Quite frankly, given the need of at least one of the Attorneys to control absolutely
everything in this case, I am not sure that a Case Manager is at all effective and
or necessary. What is the point as long as they have no authority to do the job?
Since there is a Case Manager I believe that it is imperative in this case for us to
have a very clearly delineated outline of what authority that Case Manager has or
does not have. Without that determination/clarification this nonsense will
continue.
The Case Manager shall be authorized to contact the child directly if she feels it
is appropriate, or to visit either parent's residence without notice.
The Case Manager shall be authorized to change the days and times of visitation
in keeping, in so far as it is possible, with both parents' schedules and the routine
of the child.
The Case Manager shall be authorized to set where the exchanges will be and
how long the visits shall last.
I am asking the Court for some clear direction in this case so that whether it be
me or someone else we will know the exact scope of our role as directed by the
Court and not by either Attorney.

22 share of that was $579.55. Three weeks later my attorney received a letter back from Andy's
23
attorney (attached as Exhibit C) saying they had essentially changed their minds and now Andy
24
25 was not willing to pay any portion of the daycare costs because it was for school and therefore is
1 fullest potential and I was never home with my child) there is no way this is "work related." The
2
truth is 1 am going through this program so that 1 can work in the medical field which will give
3
4 me a much better chance of getting into Nursing School, which is very difficult to get in to.
5 1 don't believe my ex husband has any right to tell me what type of job 1 can hold or more
6
to the point, tell me that he will only pay daycare if I am making a certain amount of money
7
8 doing it. Does he mean by this that when I start working as a Phlebotomist Technician he is only
9 willing to pay for his share of daycare if 1 am making more than $16.55 per hour? Andy has
10
some very serious issues with having power and control over me and it is clear that he has still
11
12 not been able to give that up, despite over two years of Domestic Violence perpetrator programs.
13 Before Andy simply said he would not pay any daycare, he was insisting on only paying if
14
I provided proof to him of actual payment of my share, (Exhibit D). Under Andy's rules 1 would
15
not be able to do something "in kind" for my mother for my share, or pay her in cash or any way
16
17 other than the way Andy wants me to do it, via check with the front and backs copies to prove
18
apparently that my mother actually cashed it. Again, his problem with power control issues. It
19
does not seem like my share or how I pay it is any of his business. For one thing 1 don't even
20
21 have a checking account at this point.
22 My extemship started on April 2"d and now, instead of being gone in the evening I am
23
wo'rking (unpaid extemship) from 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. While my mother was able to care for
24
25 Lauren in the evenings she could simply not take on the task of watching Lauren all day Monday
26 through Friday; she would simply have to quit selling real estate if she did that. I was able to get
27
Lauren enrolled in a very good daycare close to my home and she just started this week. My
28
29 mom watched her during the day for the first two weeks unti I she got accepted to this daycare.

18 $2,198.00; Andy's 67% of that is $1,472.66. I would ask that Andy be required to pay this
19
amount quite quickly as it is for work my mother already did in January, February, March and
20
21 April after Andy agreed to her doing it and to paying his share.
22 The cost for the Montessori Day Care is $856.00 per month and Andy's share is $573.52.
23
Tuition is due on the first of the month and considered late after the IO'h (additional 20%). I am
24
25 attaching both the application for admission as well as the policy information I received when
26 enrolling her, (Exhibit G). The cost will not change from month to month and Andy can simply
27
send his check directly to the day care on the first of each month. For April they are pro rating it
28
for only two weeks plus a $150.00 registration fee. April's total is $578.00; Andy's 67% share of

IDENTITY AND PURPOSE
I am the Petitioner in this matter. I make this declaration to support my
motion for an order concerning the summer 2007 residential schedule ..
SCHEDULES
The court's most recent order on this matter was April 5, 2007. Since that
time Ms. Lesourd has enrolled in a college level educational course which will
lead her to a nursing degree and licensing as a Registered Nurse. The course
begins with the summer term, July 2, 2007. Ms. Lesourd has provided a copy
of her summer term schedule. Three days per week she is attending class
until 9:15 p.m. see attached class schedule she provided.
Ms. LeSourd also provided a copy of her fall term class schedule which does
not include such late classes. Assuming that she does not have other
scheduled activities, there would be no particular need for the special
schedule during the fall term.
My proposed schedule for July and August weekdays is

8 SUPERIOR COURT OF WASHINGTON
9 COUNTY OF SNOHOMISH
16 I am the Respondent named above and make this declaration based on my own personal
17 knowledge. I am attaching the declaration I filed with the court in March of 2007, when Mr.
18 Rife was also asking this court to essentially modify our parenting plan. At that time the court
19 denied his motion but we did enter an order regarding his visitation that sets out what his visits
20 will be through early August 2007. At this time the Case Manager is to issue an interim report
21 regarding the father's progress in his DV Treatment. We have a review hearing set for the week
22 of August 13, 2007. There is no basis for this present motion. This issue was decided by the
23 court on April 5, 2007. These repeated attempts to modify the parenting plan are not in good
24 faith and again I am asking that Mr. Rife be ordered to pay my attorney fees for having to
25 respond to these motions. Please see my requests in the prior declaration, incorporated by this
26 reference. This is abuse of the courts and this conflict.
27 The court should note that the April 5, 2007 order states that the expansion of Andrew's
28 time is contingent on his continued successful progress in Phase II of DV Perpetrator's treatment
29 as well as the requirement that he enter and complete DV Dads and Respectful Parenting at
30 Family Services. At the time of the April Order Mr. Rife had just entered Phase II at Evergreen

t(o(o
1 Treatment Center after doing Phase I at Catholic Community Services. He also reported that he
2 had completed his intake for DV Dads at Family Services.
3 Since that time what we have all learned is that his current treatment program is refusing
4 to communicate with anyone, me, his attorney, other treatment programs, or anyone else. Mr.
5 Rife was not eligible to enter into DV Dads because his current treatment program would not
6 communicate with the staff at DV Dads. All of this is a clear violation of the WA Cs governing
7 DV Treatment Programs and from my perspective is just one more piece of evidence in Andy's

Re: Rife/LeSourd
P>ge 2
May51. 2007
Absent a court order, we can not agree to begin overnight visitation, or make any other
accommodations or expansions, until we have satisfactory evidence Andy is either in DV
Dads (i.e. he is finished with treatment at Evergreen and started in DV Dads) or has an
appointment to have the assessment done that will allow him to enter DV Dads. When either
one of those things has been accomplished let us know and we can have this discussion.
Best regards,

SliPERIOR COURT OF WASHINGTON
7 COUNTY OF SNOHOMISH
1.4 I fu"TI the Respondent named above_ I make this declaration under penalty of perjury and
15 based on my own personal knowledge. I arn over 18 fu"J.d otherwise competent to testify.
' 16 As I understand it, Andrew
-
Rife is asking that the cow-t enter a new parenting olan faat
- -
17 substantia!ly changes the final parenting plan entered in October of 2006. · I do not agree that
18 should be done.
19 Our parenting plan was a plan that was agreed to between all of us. There are rest.-ictions
20
21 of this case in October of 2005 the court has consistently ruled that Andy should only have
- 22 supervised visitation with our daughter.
23 Bridgett qewe!lyn was the GAL during our divorce and is the case manager under our
24 final parenting plan. In her final report to the court the GAL recommended that Andy's
25 visitation, "continue as _is tmtil he lia:s completed the first phase -of his Domestic Violence
_Treatment successfully and the mother has spoken with Dale Todd and he is satisfied tliat the
26
father is progressing. If he is, then tlie visits shall become unsupervised and the hours shall
27
remain the . ' same ... When the father has successfully completed his Domestic Violence
28 -
Perpetrators_ Treatment and provided proof of such then he can move to expand his unsupervised
29
ti.me either by agreement or by further court order." (Page 12 - 13 of GAL report dated June 6,
30
2006).
11 now see in Ms. Llewellyn's report that she is asserting that I refused to meet with Mr. Layton
12 and that Mr. Layton "soon determined that Mr. Rife did not need help with his parenting skills."
13 I don't believe that is true at all. Mr. Layton did suggest that he meet with Andy and me
14 together. I did not and do not feel comfortable doing that. There is a criminal No Contact Order
15 prohibiting Andy from having any contact with me. My therapist had long advised me against
16
having any "joint" meetings or sessions of any sort with Andy. Both my attorney and my
17 therapist discussed this issue with both Mr. Layton and Ms. Llewellyn .. My therapist made it
clear that from my treatment perspective she did not recommend any joint sessions with Andy.
18
Now Ms. Llewellyn is saying that my attorney, my therapist and I were all mistaken. That is
19
simply not true.
20
I have only received one report from Don Layton and it certainly does not say that Andy
21
does not need help. I notice that no one bothered to attach a copy of that report for this hearing.
22
A copy is attached to this declaration .. It is clear from the first page that Mr. Layton viewed his
23
role as assisting Andy, "with parenting skills" and, "ensuring that his anger issues do not
24
interfere with his parenting tasks." He notes significant anger issues in the ensuing weeks. Mr.
25
Layton noted that, "He [Andy] indeed does have trouble handling his behavior when stressed or
26
·upset." In mid October of 2006 Mr. Layton offered an assessment of how things are going,
27
(page 4 midway down the page). He notes that Andy does have good parenting skills but that he
28
also has a, "submerged mass of toxic resentment he harbors towards Jennifer/her mother - he
29
does pretty well with keeping this from Lauren. He is doing well when I [Mr. Layton] am
30
12 It seems to me that Mr: Layton is not saying that there are no issues or problems of
13 concern regarding Andy's parenting. I am not aware that Andy is doing any individual work in
14 any therapy, as Mr. Layton suggested. I have agreed to work with Mr. Layton in conjunction
15 with the advice of my own therapist; just not in any joint sessions with Andy.
16 I do understand and agree that now that Andy has finally completed the first 26 weeks of
17 his treatment program his visitation time should be unsupervised. I have no problem with that.
18 The part· I disagree with is the times and the schedule. I feel that, as recommended by the GAL
19 in her final report to the court, Andy's overall time should not increase until he has completed all
20 of his DV treatment requirements, not simply Phase I. I do not understand why the Case
Manager is now recommending something different than she recommended in her final report as
21
the GAL; it makes no sense to me.
22
We entered into a CR2a agreement last August and at that time started our new parenting
23
arrangement, although the final parenting plan was not signed until later in the fall. Although
24
our parenting plan states visits are to be three hours on Tuesday and Thursday and eight hours on
25
.Saturday, it was not until January' of this year that Andy even began to exercise all the time
26
allotted in the parenting plan. Until January it was three hours three days a week, with many
27
many cancellations having nothing to do with me or our child. I have put together the following
28
to show how often visits have been cancelled just since November.
29
Nov. 1.5 Cancelled, not by me.
30 Nov. 18 Cancelled, not by me.

10
11 My point here is to make it clear that suggesting that it would be in our two year old
12 daughters best interest to suddenly begin to have not only unsupervised time with Andy but to
13 add in extended overnight time simply makes no sense to me. There is no way.I believe this
14 would be good for her. At our first hearing in the fall of 2005 we provided the court with a copy
15 of the King County Family Court Services Access Guidelines. Commissioner Beadle approved
16 them and based the initial visitation schedule on them. I believe we have been following them
17 ever since. A copy is attached for the court. For toddlers 18 months to 3 years old it states,
,
"When the non-residential parent has been a regular and significant caretaker, ari overnight per
18
week is possible once the child has become accustomed to the other's parent's surroundings.
19
Weekend long access is _still not recommended." In this case, Andy has had supervised
20
visitation for about three hours at a time 2-3 times each week since the fall of2005. During our
21
marriage she was an infant and was never in his care for extended periods of time.
22
The case manager proposed that we continue for another month With the current
23
. schedule, then expand that to include one overnight and follow that for six weeks then expand
24
that to full weekends, Friday through Sunday. Andy believes that the overnight visitation,
25
unsupervised, should start right away.
26
I feel strongly that no overnight should begin until Andy rs actually enrolled and
27
participating in the DV Dads program. Six months ago Andy agreed that there was a history of
28
Domestic Violence and he agreed to our final parenting plan with the restri~tions and the
29
requirement that he complete a DV treatment program, complete DV Dads and complete
30
Respectful Parenting. He has not completed any treatment program yet. He has barelv
. made it
~
17 the concepts taught in any of his treatment programs he would not still be blaming me for
18 everything and still trying to convince everyone he meets that I am the abuser. In his
19
declarations for this hearing he calls it my, "allegations of abuse." He maintains this position, ·
20 still two years later, despite the fact that he was arrested and charged with assaulting me or
despite the fact that he was arrested again and charged with violating the Criminal No Contact
21
Order. He does not tell us· how he has changed or how he is now accountable or what valuable
22 \
9 abuse of me through the courts. During our divorce Andy filed a motion for a restraining order
10 against me (October 2005) which was denied. In.November he brought a motion for bad faith
11 sanctions, also denied. In December 2005, when my attorney was trying to find out if Andy was
12 in DV treatment, Andy brought a motion to keep us from having access to his file at the
13 treatment program he \vas iii at that time, despite the fact that he had already signed releases to
14 have the treatment provider provide me with the same information he was objecting to. Then in
15 July of 2006 he and his mother snuck over to District Court and obtained two ex parte
16 protections orders keeping my mother and me away from him and his mother. Those petitions
17 were ultimately dismissed at the hearing. The judge made it clear that they had not met their
burden of proof and he believed they had only brought the petitions to attempt to gain some
18
advantage in the family law case. At that same time he brought a motion to have me found in .
19
contempt, also denied. We entered into a CR2a agreement in August 2006 but Andy
20
immediately began backing off on his agreements. We were ultimately forced back into court to
21
get the final orders entered. Since our divorce was finalized in the fall of 2006 Andy has filed a
22
Motion to Disqualify and Dismiss my attorney. This was a completely frivolous motion that his
23
attorney did not confirm and was never heard. Nevertheless I had to incur attorney fees for my
24
attorney to respond to this stupid motion. Then he filed another motion to have me found in .
25
contempt. That motion was also. denied. At the same time, Andy has hired yet another attorney
26
who_ has filed a grievance against my attorney with the Washington State Bar Association. He
27
has also filed a grievance against my attorney's law partner because he stood in for my attorney
28
once last summer. I have read the grievance arid it is based entirely on their assertion that my

------------
1 attorney never told the truth and Andy and his attorney always told the truth so therefore my
2 attorney was not truthful with the court. We know these grievances will go nowhere anq Andy
3 knows that too. Ii is just another tool to continue to abuse me and anyone that stands by me.
4 Another recent example is his refusal to pay for any daycare for our child while I am in
5 school. He says he does not have to pay for day care unless it is "work" related and since I am
6 going to school so I can work, he says that is not work related. Why would he do this other than
7 to make my life very hard? Why does he still need to beat me up? I will be forced to file a
8 motion on this issue of daycare while I am in school and in an unpaid externship as I believe that
9 is work. If he was a fully supportive father he would want me to get an education and a job and
10 he would be willing to .help with daycare. Instead it is all a game. I only mention it here to show
11 how much he continues to be an abusive person and has not changed and understand the issue of
13 Frankly I am very tired of having to tell this court, once again, that Andy continues to be
14 an abusive person. For once I would love to be able to say, "Hey look, Andy is doing what he is
16 Andy is not only asking that he get more time with our daughter, he is also requesting
17 that the court do away with the restrictions in our final parenting plan, that the court now say that
we have joint decision making and that the case manager's role be substantially expanded to shift
18
the focus away from him to me.' As I iinderstand it froin what my attorney has explained to me,
19
there is no such thing as a "Motion to Modify a Parenting Plan." Our final parenting plan
20
anticipates these changes and there is simply no basis for the changes he is requesting .. I assume
21
his lawyer can read the law, just like mine can. As I understand it RCW 26.09.260 is the only
22
statute that allows a modification of a parenting plan and that statute requires that the court find
23
that there is adequate cause after a Summons and Petition to Modify has been filed. If the court
24
finds that there is adequate cause to proceed then a trial date is set, Andy and his attorney are '
25
apparently asking that the court ignore the law in this regard and modify the parenting plan to
26 '
take away all of the restrictions that Andy and his attorney agreed to last August.
27
This motion is in bad faith and I would ask that I be awarded $3,500.00 in attorney fees
28
and bad faith sanctions for having to respond to this and for his continuing abusive use of this
29
conflict.

11 Respondent.
12 I, ANDREW RIFE, declare under penalty of perjury of the laws of the State of Washington,
hat the following is true and correct.
13
1. IDENTITY AND PURPOSE
14
I am the former husband of Jennifer LeSourd, and the father of Lauren Rife, who is the
15 subject of the parenting plan in this matter. I make this declaration to support my request
for an adjustment of the parenting plan as recommended by the Case Manager, Bridget
16 Llewellyn.
18 Ms. Llewellyn has filed her five page report. With one exception, I agree with all of Ms.
Llewellyn's recommendations.
19
Ms. Llewellyn does not address the subject of Christmas residential time. I am asking the
20 court to address the subject. The parenting plan already provides for Christmas Eve with
me, and Christmas Day with Ms. LeSourd. I am asking the court to specify that Lauren
21 spend the five days before Christmas Eve with me and the five days following Christmas
Day with Ms. LeSourd. Certainly other suggestions could be made, and I am amenable to
22 working out a different schedule, but the court should address the subject of Christmas
residential time.

I, Andrew Rife, declare under penalty of perjury of the laws of the state of

14 1. IDENTITY AND PURPOSE
23 ! - - - - - - - - - - -
24 At the time of the court's April 5, 2007 decision, the court was not fully informed of Ms. LeSourd's
educational pursuits. In her declaration of March 28, 2007 (page 7, lines 7-12) she refers to being in school and an
unpaid externship. It was a technical course to become a phlebotomist technician, the classes for which ended the
25 ery next day. She has yet to file any verifiable information about her completion of the externship portion of the
program.

,.
1 Among the surprises in the educational documents we received was the news
of Ms. Lesourd's class schedule commencing July 2, 2007 which will keep her
2 until 9:1 s p.m. in class in Kirkland three nights each week.
3 Ms. LeSourd provides a declaration of her mother, Carol Holland in which Ms.
Holland volunteers to handle all the exchanges when her daughter will be
4 unavailable due to her educational commitments. The offer belies the simple
fact: Jennifer will be unavailable to care for our daughter during the time I
5 have asked for residential time.
6 3. ULTERIOR MOTIVE
7 My attorney wrote to Ms. Dyer about the summer schedule on May 30, 2007.
In that letter he proposed the same schedule as I am proposing in my present
8 motion. Ms. Dyer responded on May 31, 2007, stating, "I received your letter
just as I was drafting one to you regarding some of the same issues. I agree
9 that there may be a better schedule for the next couple of months and am
open to looking at that issue." The balance of the letter deals with Ms. Dyer's
10 frustration in communicating with Evergreen Manor and the requirements
Family Services has for its participants, not subjects over which 1 have any
11 control.
12 Ms. Dyer has never proposed any alternative residential schedule for the next
couple of months, her letter of May 31 notwithstanding. My attorney wrote
13 on June 1 and June 13 trying to find an agreement concerning summer
residential schedule. No response was received on those issues. There being
14 no progress toward agreement, we had no choice but to file the present
motion so it could be heard before Ms. Lesourd's summer educational term
15 begins on July 2, 2007.
16 Ms. LeSourd and her attorney have set out upon a campaign designed to
prevent a normal father-daughter relationship. Please review the declaration
17 of Bridget Llewellyn dated April 1, 2007 and filed as a sealed Document on
April 2, 2007.
18
Referring to herself, Mr. Layton, and Judy Dyer, Ms. Llewellyn notes:
19
... It was all of our opinions based on many hours of observation that
20 Mr. Rife did not need Therapeutic and/or other supervised visits with
Lauren. His parenting skills are exemplary and she adores him. He
21 is consistent, loving, and assertive when necessary and always
tuned into her needs. No matter if it is a short (2 houn or long (8
22 houn visit. He has had an inordinate amount of visits ... 2

1 After reviewing the facts of her involvement for several pages, Ms. Llewellyn
notes at page 6, line 6, "Ms. Dyer has made it crystal clear that she is out to
2 seek and destroy this man's relationship with his child and to make his life
miserable as is possible."
3
4. MY OPINIONS
4
There is no reason the summer schedule I have suggested should not be
s implemented.
6 MY former wife will be unavailable to care for our daughter for significant
time through July and August. I have asked for residential time during that
7 period. In September Ms. LeSourd has a more ordinary schedule, and I have
not asked for increased residential time during that time as it is to be
8 determined at a mid-August hearing if we do not have an agreement by then.

And RESPONSE TO ANDREW RIFE'S
13 MOTION TO DISMISS TO
ANDREW S. RIFE, DISQUALIFY COUNSEL, AND;
14 Respondent. MOTION TO STRIKE
15
16
PETITIONER denies that the Motion to Dismiss and to Disqualify Counsel, and Motion to Strike
17
have a basis in fact or in law, and should therefore be denied.
18
The motions should be denied for the following reasons:
19 I. Neither motion meets the requirements of Washington State Superior Court Civil Rules 7 or 11.
20 CR I !(a) states that "Every pleading, motion, and legal memorandum ofa party represented by an
21 attorney shall be dated and signed by at least one attorney ofrecord in the attorney's individual
22 name[ ... ]." CR 7(b)(3) requires that all motions be signed in accordance with CR 11. Neither of the
23 motions is signed by the attorney. Therefore, both motions should both be stricken, and, an award of
24 attorneys fees to Petitioner in the amount of $1,000.00 should be granted for the expenses incurred in
25 responding to the motions.

1 2. The Motion to Disqualify Jan Dyer from further participation in this case is utterly without merit.
2 Respondent claims "attachment 12 to Jennifer's declaration" is a memo that Ms. Dyer sent to Theresa
3 Fox. (Exhibit A, al/ached and incorporated by reference) In fact, our Exhibit 12 an entirely different
4 document. (Exhibit B, al/ached and incorporated by reference) It is a copy of a Motion to Transfer Case
5 to Superior Court which was filed in the case. The memo which Mr. Rife attaches to his Motion to
6 Disqualify is nowhere contained in the pleadings in this action. Therefore, this action is without any
7 merit. It is not grounded in any fact, and should be dismissed, and sanctions should be issued under CR
9 3. The Motion to Strike: Respondent moves to strike parts of my declaration which are matters of
1O fact that are not privileged by any rule, and therefore the Motion should be denied.
11 4. The Motion to Dismiss the Petition: This motion goes to the substance of the underlying petition
12 for a protection order. The facts are presented in the accompanying declaration of Jennifer LeSourd.

dissolution of her marriage in Snohomish County Superior Court. I am unavailable to be in court this

25 2.2 . The following meritorious reasons exist to transfer the case to Superior Court:
26 Carol Holland is the mother of Jennifer Rife who is the respondent in companion case, U06-215.
27 Andrew Rife is Jeruiifer's husband. Andrew filed for dissolution of his marriage to Jennifer Rife. That
28 matter is scheduled for trial in Snohomish County Superior Court on August 21, 2006. (In re Rife, 05-3-
02755-1). The petitioner in U06-216 is Andrew Rife's mother, Wendy Rife.

EX1·:rnr
---
1 · Andrew Rife is currently under a stipulated order of continuance out of Everett Municipal Couri
2 relative to a charge of DV Assault and Violation of a Criminal No Contact Ordior. In both, Jennifer Rife is
3 · his victim, (CR 67770 and CR 69259).
4 Jennifer Rife has a Domestic Violence Protection Order, under the dissolution cause number in
5 Superior Court, protecting both she and the parties daugbter from further acts of domestic violence from
Andrew Rife.
6
Wendy Rife, Andrew's mother, has served as the "visitation supervisor" for all visitation between
·7
Andrew Rife and his 22 month old daughter. Mr. Rife has had no unsupervised visitation with his daughter
.8
since his arrest in October of 2005 for Violation of the No Contact Order. To our knowledge and belief,
9
although ordered to enter and successfully complete a state certified domestic violence perpetrators
10 treatment program in the criminal case, Mr. Rife is not currently enrolled in any treatment program. He has
11 been enrolled in at least 3 treatment programs in the last year but has yet to successfully complete any of
12 them.
13 Because of the Protection Order and No Contact Order that Je~nifer Rife has against Andrew Rife,
14 her mother Carol Holland has been helping facilitate the visitation transfers. Both grandmothers, Carol
15 Holland and Wendy Rife, have been the involved persons for the last nine months in all of the visitation
16 transfers. Mr. Rife has obtained a Temporary Order from this court which prevents Carol Holland from
coming near or having any contact with Andrew Rife. That effectively prevents her from facilitating the
17
visitation transfers. It also makes her and any other member of her family completely unwilling to help any
18
further with the visitation transfers. Ms. Holland and Ms. Rife adamantly deny each and evety allegation
19
made by Mr. Rife and his mother and asserts that neither has done anything to intimidate, threaten or harass
20
Mr. Rife or his mother Wendy Rife. It is our belief that a court may find, after hearing all the evidence in
21
this matter that this motion has been brought in bad faith and for improper purposes. We believe there is
22 substantial evidenCf: on that point. At a minimum we believe, these Petitions do not meet their burden of
23 proof and will be denied after a full hearing.
24 Because of the Protection Order and No Contact Order and the histoty of domestic violence
25 committed by Andrew Rife, the Family Law Commissioners who have handled this case have steadfastly
26 ruled that Andrew's time with his child is to be supervised. The supervisor has been his mother, Wendy
27 Rife. Wendy has obtained a Temporary Order from this court which prevents Jennifer Rife from coming
near or having any contact with Wendy Rife, the visitation supervisor. Given that neither Jennifer Rife or
28
Carol Holland can come near Andrew Rife or Wendy Rife, visitation with the child is currently impossible.

.. 1 On the day that these orders were obtained, July 7, 2005, there was also an ex parte hearing on.the·
2 dissolution case in Superior Court. That hearing was brought at Jennifer Rife's request and on notice to
3 Andrew Rife and his attorney. Yet, Mr. Rife and the same attorney saw fit to come to this court on the same
4 day and with no notice to Jennifer Rife and her attorney, and obtain these Temporary Orders.
5 There. was no emergency, no imminent harm or no immediate threat. Not one of the alleged
inciden.ts in either petition happened less than a month ago and most were allegations of things that
6
happened in 2005. Although Mr. Rife's attorney served Jennifer Rife when they were in Superior Court
7
· lat.er that day, Ms. Holland was not served for another 6 days. She facilitated two more visitations with
8
Andrew Rife willingly in attendance before she learned that he had obtained this order.
9
There are currently two hearings set in the family law case on this very issue (visitation in light of
10
these orders, visitation in light of Andrew Rife's failure to be enrolled in Domestic Violence Treatment, and
11 Mr. Rife's motion for Contempt claiming Jennifer Rife is in contempt due to the fact that these two orders
12 have made visitation with the parties child impossible. Those hearings are set for Monday July 31, 2006 in
13 the Family Law Department of the Snohomish County Courthouse.
14 We are asking to have these two Petitions set over to Superior Court to be heard on July 31, 2006 with
15 the family law motions. They involve the same issues and same parties and each are indispensable to a just
16 and equitable resolution of the issues presented. We respectfully request that this court so order.
We have no objection to a re issuance of the current order through the 31 ~of July 2006. Mr. Primont
17
is authorized to accept service on behalf of Ms. Holland and Ms. Rife. If the court denjes this motion then
18
we would ask that these matters be continued to a time when I can be available to present our case. Mr.

I, Andrew Rife, declare under penalty of perjury of the laws of the State of Washington, that "
13 the following is true and correct.
21 I have not chosen to cancel any visit for personal convenience. In the five months
since entry of the decree, sixteen scheduled visits have not occurred. Four were cancelled
22 due to the lack of a supervisor. Five were cancelled due to my own illnesses. Six were
cancelled when I was called out by my employer for mandatory overtime resulting from
23 storm damage to the electrical system. One was cancelled by Jennifer LeSourd when she
did not deliver the child. If supervision were not required certainly four more visits would
24 have occurred. Perhaps some of the visits missed during the call out could have occurred
also.

15 entered on November 7, 2006 pursuant to the terms of that order. It is not a request to
modify any temporary parenting plan.
16
The November 7, 2006 parenting plan was entered by agreement of my former wife
17 and myself along with the Guardian ad Litem, Bridget Llewellyn.
18 Jennifer LeSourd's responding declaration often focuses on what was said and done
before the decree, as though those old facts were current facts. Generally speaking, they
19 are not current facts. And she certainly knew the pre-decree facts at the time she signed
the parenting plan on November 7, 2006 and appeared before Judge Castleberry affirming
20 that the parenting plan should be entered. The parenting plan contemplated that it would
be modified as I progressed through my treatment. I committed to a full year treatment
21 program, and I also committed to two additional programs. The parenting plan allows for
increases in my time with our daughter before I have completed all of them.
22
3. NEW SCHEDULE
23
Jennifer LeSourd's responding declaration asserts that my residential time should
24 not be expanded until I have satisfied each and every requirement of the November 7,
2006 parenting plan. She is asking the court to impose a requirement not found in the
25 order. And, she makes no reference to the father daughter relationship nor does she make

1 coaching about dealing with Jennifer and others in the wake of a bitter divorce.
Jennifer, also, has invited my input regarding dealing with the visitation process.
2 I would suggest that my efforts shift from a primary emphasis on parenting skills
to a focus on relational issues. In this I would work with each parent and would
3 partner (dialog with) the professionals involved with them.

concerning my domestic violence perpetrator's treatment1. I have attended:

24 I want the court to be aware that the Everett Municipal Court did order me
into a DV treatment program. I complied with that requirement. The Municipal Court
25 determined that I had complied with all treatment requirements last Maf. I have no
ongoing or future DV treatment requirements with the Everett Municipa Court.

I had satisfied the Municipal Court.
10
Jennifer filed case 05 2 01268 2, a petition for an order of protection from domestic
11 violence on October 3, 2005. She did not request that I be ordered to obtain any
counseling or treatment. The court reissued the temporary order of protection nine times,
12 but the petition was eventually dismissed. No permanent order of protection was ever
entered in that matter.
13
On October 19, 2005 I filed the divorce and a show cause hearing was scheduled.
14 ennifer responded to it. But she did not file any motion requesting that I be ordered into
any evaluation or treatment program. Even though she had not filed a motion requesting
1s hat I enter into treatment, she and her attorney frequently expressed to the GAL and to
the Superior Court Commissioners their opinion that I was out of compliance with the
16 orders of the Municipal Court. The Municipal Court did not share that opinion.
17 The divorce was set for trial on August 21, 2006. On July 7, 2006 (sub number 85},
ennifer filed a motion which requested that I be required to enter into DV perpetrators
1s treatment. Commissioner Stewart denied that motion without prejudice. On July 31,
2006, less than a month before our scheduled trial date, Commissioner Waggoner granted
19 the motion. Thereafter I went to Catholic Community Services.
20 Jennifer belittles my treatment history, claiming that I have "barely made it" through
Phase I. She ignores the history. I have recently completed Phase I, on schedule. I have
21 been involved in domestic violence perpetrator's treatment nearly continuously since the
fall of 2005. I have always complied with all requirements of each program I have
22 attended. I have been personally involved in my treatment program on an ongoing basis.

1 was leaving my weekly meeting when I happened to see Jan Dyer at Catholic Community
Services. I said "Hi" and continued on my way. At the time Sandy Poirer was satisfied
2 with my progress. Then I received a letter from Sandy Poirer informing me that Catholic
Community Services is recusing itself from my case and that I must find a new service
3 provider, copy attached. When my attorney and I requested information why this step was
being taken, the response was only to provide the name and telephone number of CCS's
4 attorney. Sandy Poirer would not talk about it. No useful information was learned from
the attorney, either. I was able to enroll in a program at Evergreen Manor. See March 13,
5 2007 letter from Evergreen Manor, attached. Just last week I received a copy of Jan
Dyer's February 2, 2007 letter to Sandy Poirer in which she damned me roundly, copy
6 attached. Notice that her letter does not mention a single thing I have done to justify her
condemnatory statements. Since the provider must treat information received from a
7 victim as confidential, Sandy could not even confront me with whatever Jan Dyer may have
said 2 • She would have been left in an impossible situation. I will continue my
8 participation.
9 4. FALSE ISSUES
10 A. DON LAYTON
11 Again, there is an agreement hidden in the text. Jennifer now agrees to Don
Layton's proposal for therapy.
12
Don Layton, MSW was designated as the Therapeutic Visitation Supervisor. He soon
13 concluded that I did not really need his services and delegated the actual supervision to
others. He did suggest that he work with Jennifer and me individually to work on co-
14 parenting issues. He never suggested to me that Jennifer and I should ever meet
together, merely that we both engage with him in this process. Jennifer declined. I am
15 pleased that she now says (page 3, lines 14-15) "I have agreed to work with Mr. Layton
in conjunction with the advice of my own therapist' just not in any joint sessions with
16 Andy. Nobody ever suggested joint sessions.
17 B. OLD NEWS
18 In the oral ruling of November 1, 2005, Commissioner Bedle ordered supervised
visits because he was aware that there was a statistical risk that with Jennifer unavailable
19 I might "substitute" Lauren as recipient of physical violence. I appreciated then the
caution he was showing.
20
But now, 15 months later, there is no indication of any risk to Lauren. There is
21 instead an indication of benefit.
22 1----------

23 It would be a brave attorney who would make a distinction between
information received from Jennifer LeSourd and information received from Jan Dyer. In
24 her December 2, 2005 letter to Bridget Llewellyn Ms. Dyer denied the distinction, saying
'Let me clarify something for r,ou, I stand in the shoes of my client. If I say something,
25 it is the same as if she said it. ' Given that position, CCS could not even confront me
and give me an opportunity to respond to whatever Ms. Dyer may have said.

1 c. JENNIFER'S LITIGATION COMPLAINTS
2 In an attempt to divert attention from the parenting issues, Jennifer attempts to
claim that my participation in this litigation somehow constitutes abuse of her. She got her
3 facts wrong. If the court wants to review those issues, I have attached a table which lists
her complaints and my responses. She has nothing to complain about. Each of us has
4 on some and lost some. Though she vigorously argued the domestic violence case, in
the end it proved a lost cause. We appeared for 9 (nine) hearings before she abandoned
5 he action. Then she settled the divorce without a domestic violence restraining order.
fter the decree was entered she had me served with a DV petition (simplv. repeating the
6 allegations from her 2005 DV petition) bearing the divorce cause number, then did not
proceed to a hearing. After that she filed a new DV action (again repeating the allegations
7 from her 2005 DV petition) which did proceed to a hearing. After hearing on the merits
Commissioner Stewart dismissed with prejudice.
8
6. BLAMING
9
Jennifer LeSourd claims that "He simply continues to blame me for everything."
10 Hardly. It is interesting that she provides not one single example of something I blame
her for. She does not include in her declaration anything, not one thing I blame her for,
11 but claims I blame her for every thing.

grievance against Ms. Dyer. My
8 attorney in that matter is Leland G.
Ripley, formerly Chief Disciplinary
9 Counsel for the Bar Association. The
grievance is based largely upon Ms.
10 Dyer's own false statements to the
court and knowingly offering false
11 evidence. The Bar screened it in,
assigning disciplinary counsel to
12 investigate. The matter is still open. I
have a complete copy of the
13 grieveance related correspondence
and documents and also the
14 documents relating to Ms. Dyer's own
criminal history. I will gladly provide
15 copies if the court cares to review
these issues.

The grievance addresses the conduct

relate to Jennifer and Andrew, nor
18 does it relate to our daughter.

daycare costs. Ms. LeSourd tried to
20 get me to pay non-work-related
daycare costs. I declined. See my

not abuse to refuse to be taken to the
22 cleaners. If she had wanted
maintenance, she should have
23 negotiated it when the divorce was
being finalized.

assault on Jennifer and on me has been nonstop since this matter started We have certainly seen no'

change since he started treatment with CCS and in fact,, it seems that his attacks have become niore
persanal and devious since starting With your agency. Words mean nothing to me when it comes to
abusers; a change in actions is the benchmark. Andy's actions have remained consistem end abusive
the entire time with zero change.
i would think that Andy would expect that I would be checking up on his treatment and j
wanting to see his file, This should be no smprise to anybody and completely within my duties to r
my client, Instead I get crazy ramblings like this from his attorney who consistently reinforces

Let's see if I got the time lines and files straight yet:
pleadings for no legitimate purpose and only to increase the strife and expense of this
protracted litigation. An alternative explanation would be reassuring. Perhaps you can let
me in on something I have been wondering: If you did not know of the errors in your filing
on November 21, 2006, when you realized that there was an error in your filing, why did
you not simply call / fax /write and tell me about the problem and your intention to refile
correctly?
I will try to send you a new responding declaration and motion to dismiss later
today or tomorrow. Mr. Rife's declaration has been revised and improved: It is not merely
a repetition of the prior declaration. It may be faxed tomorrow, dependin~ on when I get
my editing done. Since the DV action was not timely served, I do not think a timeliness
objection from you is appropriate.

10 RESPONDING DECLARATION OF
Jennifer Rae LeSourd, fka Rife ANDREW RIFE
11 Respondent.
12 I, ANDREW RIFE, declare under penalty of perjury of the laws of the State of
Washington, that the following is true and correct.
SUMMARY OF RESPONSE
I have declined to pay my former wife's claim for child care expenses. She brings
the present motion falsely alleging that she has incurred child care expenses with
her mother. I am not obligated to pay fictional expenses.
If my former wife did incur an educational daycare expense that expense is not
chargeable to me under the November 7, 2006 order of support. As to the
Montessori daycare expense, that is also an educational expense, not a work related
expense, and 1s not my responsibility. If my former wife wishes to assert that I owe
the expenses she now asserts, she must utilize the arbitration clause of the order
of support.
RED HERRING
Ms. LeSourd attempts to divert attention from the baseless nature of her claim by
asserting that my refusal to pay what I do not owe constitutes some sort of control
CARLl.GAUL
Attorney at Law
(

5 3. FICTIONAL EXPENSES
6 The Declaration of my former wife never states that she has paid her mother a
dime, nor that she ever will pay her a dime for child care.
7
As this subject of child care costs came up through counsel and gradually additional
8 facts were provided, my attorney asked for documentation that child care costs
were actually being incurred. That documentation was never provided. Instead,
9 Ms. LeSourd files the present motion. In it she acknowledges that she cannot
provide proof of payment and argues that I should pay cash regardless of how she
10 may pay her mother with services or whatever. She never does get around to
saying that payment has been made by any method, nor that she has any intention
11 of ever paying her mother.
12 Even if they had been real, the expense claimed is unreasonable. I would have
cared for Lauren with out charge. My mother would have done so also.
13 Furthermore, the amount charged is unreasonable. Ms. LeSourd provides copies
of internet advertisements from people seeking employment, not those seeking
14 employees. I have found other people were able to obtain child care without the
excessive rates claimed by Ms. Holland. WAC 388-165-320 provides a maximum
15 rate for grandparent care of $2.06 per hour. Even doubling that would be less than
half what Ms. LeSourd pretends to owe.
16
4. NOT WORK RELATED
17
The November 7, 2006 order of support does not obligate me to pay any portion
18 of education related daycare.
24
1
She has previously tried to convince the court that I had refused to pay child support for
25 November 2006, even though I had paid it and had sent copies of my paycheck stubs showing the
payment to her attorney.

RESPONDING DECLARATION OF ANDREW RIFE Everett WA 98201
Page 2 425 259-4147 FAX 259 7081
1 FILED IN OCTOBER 2005, Ms. LeSourd stated at page 8:
7 Ms. LeSourd has told a different new story also. On January 2, 2007 she filed a
petition for an order of protection from domestic violence. Attached to that petition
8 is a declaration from Jennifer LeSourd dated November 21 2006 in which she
claims "I am on public assistance and am going to school2." She has never
9 revealed the school she was attending at the time, and she has not explained how
she handled child care. Indeed, if she was truly receiving public assistance
10 payments 3, it seems she would have been eligible for DSHS Children's
Administration Child Care Subsidy Programs, but she does not discuss it.
11
Once I had received Ms. LeSourd's declaration attesting the $2798.00 income, my
12 attorney and I used her number as the true number for her income. Afer all, she
claimed to have the invoices. At the time of settlement, that same number was
13 used. It is an actual income amount she established. It is the amount she certified
to the court when she signed the settlement documents.
14
Ms. LeSourd maintains the Snohomish County Mobile Notary website. She
15 downplays the significance of her self employment now.use the same income
amount
16
6. MONTESSORI SCHOOL
17
I do not question whether the Montessori School charges $856.00. Again, I am not
18 liable for the cost.
21
2
Ms. LeSourd's declaration of November 21, 2006 does not display page numbers. The quoted
22
material is found on the fifth page, at lines 11-12, about three inches above her signature. Commissioner
Stewart dismissed the petition with prejudice.
23
3
I do not believe she was actually on public assistance. I have paid my child support faithfully
24 every single month. Under the temporary orders it was $540 per month. Since December 1, 2006 it has
been $562.50 per month. I believe that I pay more as child support than she would receive as public
25 assistance and that she is therefore ineligible for public assistance. But the story she chose to put into
her declaration is accurately quoted.

RESPONDING DECLARATION OF ANDREW RIFE Everett WA 98201
Page 3 425 259-4147 FAX 259 7081
1 of the order of support.
3 I do not share Ms. LeSourd's trepidation about payment of child care costs or what
job she may get. I anticipate that as a newly licensed phlebotomist, she will work
4 odd hours and some cooperation will be necessary to provide child care during her
work hours. Probably some of the time she is working it will be reasonable for our
5 daughter to be in a child care facility. Probably some of the time she is working will
be during our daughter's residential time with me. I am unable to be sure what will
6 happen in the future. I do expect to pay my fair share of reasonable verifiable work
related child care costs once Ms. LeSourd becomes employed, regardless of her rate
7 of pay.
8 7. ARBITRATION CLAUSE
9 The November 7, 2006 Order of Support requires disputes between my former wife
and myself to be arbitrated. She has not invoked it. The court should deny all her
10 requests for relief and require the issues to be arbitrated as the support order
provides.

~?O
obtained a temporary protection order at that time and Andy filed for a divorca,
21
For reasons that I have never understood the court reissued my temporary protection
22
order month after month, (exhibit 14). There was never any real quesl!On that I would have a
23 prolection order but the way it started ouUt just kept getting reissued. Finally in April we were in
24 court again on the re-issuance of the protection order in front of Commissioner Stewart Our
25 trial was set for mid August. The court gave us the choice of having it issue a full protection
26 . order at that time or reissue to the trial date.

27 my parents stepped out in the hall. Andy and his attorney left the courtroom while my attorney

Devore. His most recent progress report indicates that they had to have a talk with him about
13
"fighting against doing the program" (exhibit 4). It seems clear that nothing has changed.
14
As I mentioned above, Andy has "therapeutic visitation supervision" with Don Layton.
·15
Don has made it quite clear to me that Andy is fixated on blaming me and clearing his name.
1G Mr. Layton notes that Andy needs, "to be mindful of the submerged mass of toxic: resentment he

18 The reasons for entering a temporary protection order In 2005 and reissuing it until
"19 August of 2005 continue to exist tOday. Andy continues to be a very angry and danoerous
20 person as it relates to me and our daughter. I am fully committed to working with our Case
Manager and through our parenting plan, (exhibit B) but I feel strongly that I need an order of
21
protection for both Lauren and me. From my perspective Andy is more dangerous now than he
22
was a year ago. Ha has never at any time taken any responsibility or been accounexhibitle for

26 November 7. 2006. Our final order of child support states that support, under the final order
27 would begin on October 1. 2006 but that is crossed out and December 1, 2006 is written in. I
28 called the Division of Child Support and was told that the temporary orders ended when the final
29 order was entered so technically Andy does not owe support for November. This typ<> of

1 economic terrorism is typical of Andy. He Is not worried about Lauren and I having no money
2 he is just thinking about how he can get back at me.
3 I believe we have a very long road ahead of us. Who knows if Andy will ever embrace
his treatment and change his way of thinking. He has had. many opportunities to do so but has
4
not so far. He continues to blame me tor everything and I am very concerned for the safety and
5
wellbeing of our daughter ii he continues to think and act the way he is now.
6
I am asking that this protection order be effective until 2011, five years from now. Our
7 daughter will be seven by then. Maybe there will be a miracle before then; I hope so but frankly
8 at this point I am not holding my breath.
9 I should not have had to come to court to obtain this order. Every professional in tllis
10 case has recommended that there be a protection order. All ot the evidence points to Andy's
11 abuse: to his refusal to change his way of thinking and be accounexhibitle tor his actions. I am
·12 Oil public assistance and am going to school. I have had to borrow all of my attorney fees from
my parents. I did not receive any child support ($562.00) in November from Andy. I am asking
13
the court to order that Andy pay $3,500.00 for my attorney fees and cost in having to bring this
14
petition.

and
10 REPLY DECLARATION OF ANDREW RIFE
Jennifer Rae Rife
12
13
I, ANDREW RIFE, declare under penalty of perjury of the laws of the State of Washington,
14 hat the following is true and correct.
15 1. I am the petitioner in this case. I make this declaration to reply to the declaration of my
former wife, Jennifer LeSourd, dated February 14, 2007.
16
2. WHY WE ARE HERE
17
We are here because Jennifer Rife failed to deliver our daughter to the transfer place, and
18 then refused to respond to a simple request for make up time.
19 Jennifer no-showed for visitation on January 20. She does not take responsibility for her
failure to obtain permission to change our daughter's time with me. She sent one (1) email
20 and did not follow up with either the case manager, the supervisor or Don Layton! Then
she simply did not both erto show up. Her excuse -using our daughter's naptime- is not
21 valid. She states that Lauren's naptime is noon to 2:00 p.m. So why in the world would
she wake our little girl in the middle of her nap to get her to the visitation exchange place

3. ISSUES BEFORE THE COURT
3
I want the court to remember that this contempt motion is based upon my former wife
4 denying residential time on Saturday, January 20, 2007.
5 The November 7, 2006 Parenting Plan, paragraph 3.1 is clear enough. Lauren is to be with
me "On Tuesday and Thursdays for three (3) hours and on Saturdays for eight (8) hours
6 each week." My time with Lauren has been supervised. The supervisor, Judy Dyer, was
only available for three hours on Saturdays, so that is the amount of time I was able to
7 exercise. (Recently her availability has increased so that commencing February 3, 2007
Lauren has been spending 8 hours with me on Saturdays.)
8
Jennifer knew the time for the January 20 visit was from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. Jennifer
9 acknowledges (page 3, lines 20-21) that she was notified that the January 20, 2006 visit
would be from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. She unilaterally chose to change that time, did not
10 verify that it was acceptable to anyone else, nor even that the communication was read by
anyone else.
11
Jennifer attempts to miss the point of her knowledge of the time for the visit. Lauren was
12 with me on Saturday, January 6, 2007, from 11:00 to 2:00. Jennifer refers to a Friday
January 12, 2007 e-mail she sent to Bridget Llewellyn. But that e-mail also acknowledges
13 that Bridget Llewellyn has the authority. Her responding declaration ignores the fact that
the Saturday January 13, 2007 visit was also from 11:00 to 2:00, notwithstanding what she
14 had to say the previous day. And she does not provide any explanation why she waited
until Wednesday January 17 at 6:57 p.m. to announce her change for the following
15 Saturday. Neither does she explain why she arrogates to herself the authority to set the
times for others. She knows that Judy Dyer has limited availability and a schedule to
16 maintain.
17 My own opinion is that Jennifer announced her decision to change the visitation time
without bothering to obtain the agreement of anyone else, particularly the supervisor, is
18 that she was still angry about the dismissal of her petition for an order of protection from
domestic violence the day before. If she had simply been concerned about Lauren's nap
19 time, she would have been communicating on Monday, during the day when supervisor
Judy Dyer is in her office.
20
Jennifer acknowledges (page 3, lines 12-16) that on a prior occasion when she initiated a
21 change, she faxed information to the case manager and also that she followed it up with
a phone call to the supervisor. She does not explain why she did not take as much care to
22 assure that her communication was received for the January 20, 2007 visit.
23 Jennifer does not explain why she did not arrange make up time. She does not even
mention the subject. She knows that denial of residential time will result in a contempt
24 filing. I filed three contempt motions on this basis while the divorce was pending. (One
was denied because Jennifer had been following her attorney's advice to disallow the time.
25 One was not served. And one was abandoned when we had an apparent settlement on

1 August 7, 2006).
2 RED HERRINGS
3 Jennifer spends the first two pages discussing her view of the history of our divorce. Some
of what she has to say is accurate, most is not. All of it is irrelevant. She denied residential
4 time on January 20, 2007 and she did not respond to an invitation to simply provide
alternate time.
5
Jennifer points out that Bridget Llewellyn is our case manager, which is true. She points
6 out that Bridget Llewellyn can adjust visit times, which is inconsistent with Jennifer being
able to change the times unilaterally. Jennifer claims that Bridget Llewellyn cannot change
7 the days of the visits, ignoring the fact that the parenting plan provides for Saturday visits,
and the visit forming the basis for this contempt motion is a Saturday visit.
8
Jennifer claims that the parenting plan was negotiated in July 2006, which is false. It was
9 initially negotiated on August 7, 2006. She claims that it has been an absolute nightmare,
ignoring that she agreed to it before Judge Castleberry on November 7, 2006, three full
10 months after it was negotiated. Whether she finds it nightmarish or not does not affect her
duty to comply with it. If she finds this plan difficult, she could always propose
11 improvements, but she has not done so.
12 Jennifer claims that I have continued to make this case adversarial. That is a false claim,
but even if it were true, would not justify her choice to disallow residential time on January
13 20, 2007. And it does not explain her choice to not respond to an invitation to simply
arrange compensatory time.
14
Visitation has been at various times and various days in the 16 months since the divorce
15 was filed. So what? Jennifer knew that there was a visit scheduled for Saturday January
20, 2007 at 11:00 a.m. and she prevented it from occurring. I work for the Snohomish
16 County PUD. I had mandatory call out last fall due to service interruptions following record
breaking rain storms. I had mandatory call out in December and January due to service
17 interruptions caused by heavy snow and cold. I had to work as much as 40 consecutive
hours without rest. I have been ill, causing a total of three visits to be missed. I have
18 never simply chosen to miss a visit. My visits have all been supervised. The supervisors
have not always been available, or have been available for less than the full time
19 authorized. While disappointed, I have not attacked their competence, honesty or
credibility. It would simply serve no purpose.
20
Jennifer criticizes the supervisor for making "no attempt to salvage" the afternoon time after
21 Jennifer contacted her at 12:56 p.m. We did not have that time because she did not have
it available, which Jennifer would have known if she had communicated reasonably. I went
22 home after Jennifer no-showed. If I had been contacted at that point, I could have
exercised my time in the afternoon. But I had no reason to expect that the afternoon would
23 be available, but no longer had a supervisor available.
24 Jennifer defends herself by claiming she was trying to stop miscommunications and
constant changes to the visitation schedule. She ignores that she is the source of
25 non-communication and change to the visitation schedule.

1 Jennifer pretends that her home address was a secret of some sort. I am attaching a
portion of her web site where she lists the address. Additionally, she has been served at
2 her home address more than once. Her claim that Bridget Llewellyn divulged private and
personal information is false, but also irrelevant. Whether Bridget Llewellyn did or did not
3 err in allowing my attorney access to information in her files really has nothing to do with
Jennifer's contempt for failure to follow the parenting plan.

We need for the case manager's job to be defined. The court should enter an order

Re: Rife/LeSourd
Because you have chosen to take this tact in this case you have put yourself in an adversarial
position when you ·are supposed to be a neutral. For a victim of DV that is an uncomfortable position
and coHnter to where I want Jenn to be right now. While it is time for her to move on and build her
o"·n 1ife it is time for Andy to do. the same. The difference here is he is the abuser that still has not
even made it through Phase I of any accountability based treatment program. To this day he is still
blaming Jenn, even in his recent swom declarations. He is the one you are supposed to be watching
and evaluating· and giving us recommendations for. Instead he just continues to blame Jenn and me
and· everybody else. He does this because he is emboldened by you, his attorneys and his family.
His attorney and his family I can understand but you have a higher duty and it is clear that you have
no intention of carrying that duty out.
Don identified early on, and so did. you and so did JeJUl, that Andy's family has a very harsh
way of talking that is quite abusive. I am curious what you are doing about.that? ls there a plan? .J
think there. is not. You keep plenty busy talking to ei'eryone on the phone and changing the days and
times whenever you 'feel like it or whenever it's convenient for the supervisor or Andy. Jenn has not
been the one that has asked for changes; in fact she and her family have made sure that 110 matter
how late or against what they think is good for Lauren, they have complied when it was possible for
them to do so. Yet week to week the visit times and days change, mostly at Andy's request. Do you
think this is good for Lauren? Do you understand how difficult .it makes Jenn's life and any attempt
to go to school and work? If you don't, Andy does. From my perspective he is using aJI of you to
continue to abuse )elUl and Lauren. You allow him to keep everything changing at bis whim.
A.busers control and Andy is controlling you. If Andy is not doing this then who is?
The parenting plan we agreed to is clear, at least to me. Let me ·review it with you so that we
are all on the same page as to what we expect: . .
l. It is the father, not the mother's, time that is restricted. Jt is the father that your focus as a
case manager is supposed to be on. ,.
2. The 3.2 schedule is Tuesdays and Thursday for 3 hours and Saturday for 8 hours. I run aware
that the visits have been on almost every .day of the week but rarely on Tuesday and
Thursday. I see no authority in the parenting plan for either you or Don to change the day of
the week. Absent the agreement of the parties, changing the days of the week would be a
modification of the parenting plan. We have not agreed to any modification of the
parenting plan. Visitations are 6n Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday.
3. Andy has to successfully complete treatment, including DV Dads at Family Services.
4. His time is not to be ·expanded until he has successfu!ly completed Phase I of DV Treatment.
5. You are to communicate v,.ith all parties anc) professionals working with the father and
make written recommendations on future expended access for the father.
6. Vv'hen and if you think Andy's visitation should be expanded, you are to "Tile a report and
recommendations.
7. Unless we all agree, there shall be no change except by cou.rt order.
8. Under transportation you have authority to set where the exchanges will be and bow long the
visits will last.
It is only under this last section that you have any reason to communicate with my client.
You do not have the authority to change the days as you have in the past. They are Tuesday,
Thursday and Saturday, period. You and 'or Don can change the times. As to that, we are going to
say again, and again if necessary, that Laure.n's nap time is beiween noon ru1d 2:00 p.m. cvei)· day.
When she has visits during that time without getting her nap it is hard on her a.i1d on everyone else.
So, from our perspective weekday visits need to be after 2:00 p.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays. As
I
L
Pl9' 3
Fd~~t.i.1iy 2, 1007
we understand it visits are currently (as of last week) Tuesdays and Wednesdays, from 3 :00 p.m. to
6:00 p.m. and Saturday from 11 :00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. As I understand it you now, this week, decided
to expand Andy_' s. time from three hours on Saturdays to the full 8 hours and have set the time to be
I 0:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. on Saturdays thereby almost tripling the time 'Lauren. "'ill be with Andy on
Saturdays. While I understand that you have the authority to do that it does seem a bit abrupt and
possibly a lot of change for a little girl. Wouldn'.t a graduated schedule make more sense? It is clear
··to see where all of this ·is going. You believe Andy is just about finished with Phase I of his
.treatment and we all know that as soon as he has completed Phase 1 of treatment you will be
recommending lifting any requirement for supervision. I am just curious though about what your
basis was for tripling the amount of time he has been· spending for the last six months without a .
phase in.
So, let's be clear: There will be .visits on Tuesday and Thursday from 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m.
and· Saturdays from l 0:00 to 6:00 p.m~ Al¢.ough you have authority to change tlie .times of the day
the visits take place, you do·not have the same authority regarding the days of the week. Those are
set in the parenting plan as Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. Absent agreement, signed by all
parties, or court order, those days do riot change. We will agree to reasonable and verified work or
treatment related changes but only if those changes are coi:tSistent_over a reasonable period of time.
While you have authority to change the time and location of the exchanges, those changes
must be reasonablY. based and confined so as to limit their impact on the child. Consistency is
always in her best interest. In order for Jenn to go to school and work outside the home successfully,
it is imperative that visit times be consistent. .Her family members will continue to provide bai;k up
for the exchanges but it is her primary responsibility and her schedule has to be considered. Frequent
changes to the times make planning or being a new employee very difficult.
We have been operating under this parenting plan for over six months. In that same period of
time, the days, times and places of exchange have rarely stayed the same from week t'o week. Often
the changes have been sudden and without reasonable cause. · This has caused a great deal of
frustration and concern and is really not good.'for Lauren. She is old enough now to understand that
she is going to see her dad. We owe her consistency if nothing else.
From this time on we need to have the "times and places set and' those need ·to not change
absent a verifiable work or treatment related reason. Lauren comes first and everyone else's
convenience comes last. If there is going.to be a change it needs to be communicated and verified in
a timely fashion with enough notice so that the other party can make alternate arrangements. · We
consider three full days notice sufficient. That means if there is· going to be a change on Tuesday it
needs to be communicated by Friday because the weekends don't count. If it is a change for
Thursday, it needs to be communicated by Monday. A change for Saturday needs to be
communicated by Wednesday. And becaU.Se this is very important, we must insist that changes are
in v.Titing. And because this remains. quite adversarial and fraught with difficulties,. we must' insiSt
that all conununication with our client come through our office. We will see that communications
flow efficiently and promptly. It is not our desire to be a cog iii this wheel but rather to be a grease
can that keeps_ it moving.
The other reason why we are insisting that all communication be in writing and to our office
is that you seen] to be quite erratk•~and undependable about communication. On Thursday of last
week my client's mother )'eceived a letter you wrote to Jennifer. You mailed it to Jennifer's parent's
home not Jenni'fer's.' And you mailed it to Jennifer Rife, which is not her name. Her name is
Jennifer LeSciurd 11nd it is hard to imagine why you would not have adjusted to that name change in
six months. Also; no one in our office or in our side of.this case has ·ever been given any notice that
..
P.Jg~ .i
F~t-i~l:;Hy ~- :2007
you do not do business via email. If that is so, it seems odd that you list your email on your
°letterhead and, business car. You seem to want all communication via telephone but often list an
incorrect telephone nwnber on your letterhead. My office speI)t two weeks leaving your voice mail
messages asking you to call us so that we could set up a meeti.ni. You never once bothered to return
my messages. Then when Jenn tells you that she wants communication to go through me you refuse
and tell her that you are demanding that you deal directly with her. You tell her this in a letter you
send to her parent's home. You are way out of your line ·of authority in this regard and your actions
are causing more confusion, which frankly I believe is your goa.L As.a result and in order to avoid
further confusion, all correspondence must be faxed or mailed to my office with enough notiCe
to gi"e us three days notice o·f any changes, not including weekends.
Unless we hear differently from you, in writing directed. to my office, visits ";ill occur
every Tuesday, Thursday from 3:_00 ·p.m. to 6:00 p.m. and Saturday from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00.
p.m. As I understand it, all of the exchanges occur at a Safeway designated by you. ,Jf the
times or locations ·of any of those visits must change, your· office will contact my office in
writing three days in advance.
\\'hen you are ready to write a report and need to talk to Jenn for her input, please contact my
office so that we can arrange for that to happen. Other than that, I do not believe any communication
betwee1i you and my client is necessary· or warranted. If you feel it is, feel free to contact me and we
can discuss the matter: ·

Jennifer Rae Rife
12 I, ANDREW RIFE, declare under penalty of perjury of the laws of the State of Washington,
that the following is true and correct.
I am the Petitioner in this case. I make this declaration to support my motion to adopt a
new parenting plan pursuant to the recommendation of the case manager dated March 16,
2007.
BRIEF HISTORY
My former wife and I have a child, Lauren, now 21/2. Our divorce was pending for roughly
13 months. The temporary parenting plan was driven by the allegations of domestic
violence from my wife. The parenting plan entered with the decree also was largely
dictated by those issues.
For 13 months, while the divorce was pending, Lauren's residential time with me was
supervised, principally by my mother, Wendy Rife. In the last 2·3 months it was supervised
by Don Layton, Bridget Llewellyn and Judy Dyer. Since entry of the parenting plan Lauren's
time with me has continued to be supervised. Again the supervisors have been Don Layton,
MSW, Case Manager Bridget Llewellyn and her assistant, Judy Dyer. These impartial

1 observers concur that there is no need for ongoing supervision of Lauren's time with me.
2 The parenting plan specifies that I must complete the DV Dads program with Family
Services in Seattle. I have enrolled in that program, which involves two Tuesday meetings
3 per month for five months, beginning in April. I will be taking that course concurrently with
the remainder of the domestic violence perpetrator's program. The parenting plan also
4 specifies that I must complete the Respectful Parenting program. I expect to enroll in that
program to follow the completion of the DV Dads program.

3. PROPOSAL
6
With one exception, I concur with the recommendation of the case Manager. She suggests
7 four weeks of Tuesday-Thursday for 3 hours each and Saturday for 8 hours, transitioning
to a second phase of residential time of Tuesday - Thursday for 3 hours each plus 25 hours
8 on Saturday-Sunday. My proposal omits the first phase because that is simply what is
happening currently and has been happening for some time, with the exceptions of days
9 of illness or weather related complications.
10 Throughout the time the case was pending, the Guardian ad Litem knew that I had a good
relationship with my daughter. I am submitting again copies of declarations submitted at
11 the beginning of the divorce to document the relationship that existed then. Ms. Llewellyn
has submitted a recommendation to transition fairly quickly to an ordinary schedule of
12 contact, with no requirement of supervision of my time. It is about time. I was raised
within the Roman Catholic tradition. I want so much to have my daughter in church on
13 Easter Sunday. Since the separation I have had only slight Sunday time.
14 4. INTRANSIGENCE
15 The Case Manager's recommendation was expected by both sides. I had my lawyer write
to Ms. Dyer on March 1, 2007 with a proposal for the new parenting plan. She has not
16 responded. The failure to participate in good faith has caused me to incur additional
attorney fees which should not have been necessary. I am asking the court to enter an
17 award of attorney fees in my favor as a result of the intransigence of the opposition.

23 Bridgett Llewellyn was the GAL during our divorce and is the case manager under our
24 final parenting plan. In her final report to the court the GAL recommended that Andy's
visitation, "continue as is until he has completed the first phase of his Domestic Violence
25
Treatment successfully and the mother has spoken with Dale Todd and he is satisfied that the
26
father is progressing. If he is, then the visits shall become unsupervised and the hours shall
27
remain the same ... When the father has successfully completed his Domestic Violence
28
Perpetrators Treatment and provided proof of such then he can move to expand his unsupervised
29
30
time either by agreement or by further court order." (Page 12 - 13 of GAL report dated June 6, / /J
2006). y

1 It seems to me that our current parenting plan is clear on what has to happen and it has
2 not happened. On page 3, section 3.10 it states that Andy will enroll and successfully complete a
3 state certified domestic violence perpetrators treatment program. He has not yet done that,
4 despite being first ordered to do that in June of2005. As I understand it he did manage to attend
5 26 weeks at Catholic Community Services but he has yet to "successfully complete" any
6 treatment program. In the nearly 2 years since he was first ordered into treatment he has now
7 only managed to get through the first Phase, which is generally done in six months. He is now
8 allegedly working with Evergreen Treatment Program, his fifth treatment program.
9 As I understood our parenting plan, Don Layton was appointed as a Therapeutic
10 Visitation Supervisor to, "work directly with the father." (Parenting Plan, page 3, line 21). I
11 now see in Ms. Llewellyn's report that she is asserting that I refused to meet with Mr. Layton
12 and that Mr. Layton "soon determined that Mr. Rife did not need help with his parenting skills."
13 I don't believe that is true at all. Mr. Layton did suggest that he meet with Andy and me
14 together. I did not and do not feel comfortable doing that. There is a criminal No Contact Order
15 prohibiting Andy from having any contact with me. My therapist had long advised me against
16 having any 'joint" meetings or sessions of any sort with Andy. Both my attorney and my
17 therapist discussed this issue with both Mr. Layton and Ms. Llewellyn. My therapist made it
18 clear that from my treatment perspective she did not recommend any joint sessions with Andy.
19
Now Ms. Llewellyn is saying that my attorney, my therapist and I were all mistaken. That is
simply not true.
20
I have only received one report from Don Layton and it certainly does not say that Andy
21
does not need help. I notice that no one bothered to attach a copy of that report for this hearing.
22
A copy is attached to this declaration .. It is clear from the first page that Mr. Layton viewed his
23
role as assisting Andy, "with parenting skills" and, "ensuring that his anger issues do not
24
interfere with his parenting tasks." He notes significant anger issues in the ensuing weeks. Mr.
25
Layton noted that, "He [Andy] indeed does have trouble handling his behavior when stressed or
26
upset." In mid October of 2006 Mr. Layton offered an assessment of how things are going,
27
(page 4 midway down the page). He notes that Andy does have good parenting skills but that he
28
also has a, "submerged mass of toxic resentment he harbors towards Jennifer/her mother - he
29
does pretty well with keeping this from Lauren. He is doing well when I [Mr. Layton] am

1 present; how well is he doing with this when he is around his family? Or when he is not being
2 watched? The work he is doing in the DV program is important."
3 In his conclusion he states, "The most important issue for Andrew to address is his
4 residual anger. Undoubtedly much of this is by virtue of the difficult custody battle that is on the
5 verge of begin resolved; however there is a high likelihood that Andrew harbors a lot of anger
6 from pre Jennifer events in his life also. I am taking opportunities to educate Andrew about
7 anger and what it does to people. I am encouraging him to take full advantage of the DV
8 treatment program that he is in. I also plan to suggest to Bridgett Llewellyn that Andrew would
9 benefit from ongoing individual work aimed at exploring what he may carry from his childhood
1o and family or origin." He goes on to say that he thinks he should shift his focus to relational
11 issues rather than parenting skills.
12 It seems to me that Mr. Layton is not saying that there are no issues or problems of
13 concern regarding Andy's parenting. I am not aware that Andy is doing any individual work in
14 any therapy, as Mr. Layton suggested. I have agreed to work with Mr. Layton in conjunction
15 with the advice of my own therapist; just not in any joint sessions with Andy.
16 I do understand and agree that now that Andy has finally completed the first 26 weeks of
17 his treatment program his visitation time should be unsupervised. I have no problem with that.
18 The part I disagree with is the times and the schedule. I feel that, as recommended by the GAL
19
in her final report to the court, Andy's overall time should not increase until he has completed all
of his DV treatment requirements, not simply Phase I. I do not understand why the Case
20
Manager is now recommending something different than she recommended in her final report as
21
the GAL; it makes no sense to me.
22
We entered into a CR2a agreement last August and at that time started our new parenting
23
arrangement, although the final parenting plan was not signed until later in the fall. Although
24
our parenting plan states visits are to be three hours on Tuesday and Thursday and eight hours on
25
Saturday, it was not until January of this year that Andy even began to exercise all the time
26
allotted in the parenting plan. Until January it was three hours three days a week, with many
27
many cancellations having nothing to do with me or our child. I have put together the following
28
to show how often visits have been cancelled just since November.

10
11 My point here is to make it clear that suggesting that it would be in our two year old
12 daughters best interest to suddenly begin to have not only unsupervised time with Andy but to
13 add in extended overnight time simply makes no sense to me. There is no way I believe this
14 would be good for her. At our first hearing in the fall of 2005 we provided the court with a copy
15 of the King County Family Court Services Access Guidelines. Commissioner Beadle approved
16 them and based the initial visitation schedule on them. I believe we have been following them
17 ever since. A copy is attached for the court. For toddlers 18 months to 3 years old it states,
"When the non-residential parent has been a regular and significant caretaker, an overnight per
18
week is possible once the child has become accustomed to the other's parent's surroundings.
19
Weekend long access is still not recommended." In this case, Andy has had supervised
20
visitation for about three hours at a time 2-3 times each week since the fall of 2005. During our
21
marriage she was an infant and was never in his care for extended periods of time.
22
The case manager proposed that we continue for another month with the current
23
schedule, then expand that to include one overnight and follow that for six weeks then expand
24
that to full weekends, Friday through Sunday. Andy believes that the overnight visitation,
25
unsupervised, should start right away.
26
I feel strongly that no overnight should begin until Andy is actually enrolled and
27
participating in the DV Dads program. Six months ago Andy agreed that there was a history of
28
Domestic Violence and he agreed to our final parenting plan with the restrictions and the
29
requirement that he complete a DV treatment program, complete DV Dads and complete
30
Respectful Parenting. He has not completed any treatment program yet. He has barely made it

1 through Phase I but he certainly has not completed any program and it remains to be seen if he
2 will or can actually openly and accountably complete a full program. The issue here is his ability
3 to parent our child without restrictions. He has agreed to enter and complete a program aimed
4 specifically at father's who have used abuse in their family relationships. It seems to make sense
5 to me that his time should not be expanded until he is actually in that program and making
6 satisfactory progress.
7 Andy intimates to the court that he is actually already enrolled in the DV Dad's program.
8 I have been contacted by the program and they have provided all parties with a Client Progress
9 Report dated March 2007. I am attaching a copy of that report. It is clear that he has gone
1o through the intake process but has not finished it and he definitely is not "in" that program right
11 now. They have asked him to provide them with certain information and documentation. Once
12 they receive the requested information they say they will review his file to determine if he is
13 appropriate for the program.
14 I would love nothing more than for Andy to take his treatment seriously and be
15 accountable for his own actions. Unfortunately it is one thing to talk the talk but it is another to
16 walk the talk. Andy's walk and his talk are not consistent with each other. If he had absorbed
17 the concepts taught in any of his treatment programs he would not still be blaming me for
18 everything and still trying to convince everyone he meets that I am the abuser. In his
19 declarations for this hearing he calls it my, "allegations of abuse." He maintains this position,
still two years later, despite the fact that he was arrested and charged with assaulting me or
20
despite the fact that he was arrested again and charged with violating the Criminal No Contact
21
Order. He does not tell us how he has changed or how he is now accountable or what valuable
22
lessons he has learned in treatment. He simply continues to blame me for everything. He
23
attaches declarations that he provided to the court in the fall of 2005. The court's response then
24
was to order that his time be supervised and that he enter into and complete DV Treatment. He
25
provided all of these same declarations to the GAL and her response was that he was an abuser in
26
need of treatment and that his time should be supervised or daytime only until he successfully
27
completes DV treatment.
28
In October of 2006, just six months ago, Don Layton was noting Andy's "toxic rage"
29
against me and my mother. In November of 2006 his progress report from CCS noted that he
30
was having difficulty committing to the program and they had concerns regarding energy being

1 spent fighting against doing the program. Then in January they say that he has done his 26
2 sessions but he can no longer be in their treatment program and has to go somewhere else for the
3 second phase. Although the Case Manager is asserting that he is enrolled at Evergreen
4 Treatment Center, they have not made any contact with me and I have no verification of this.
5 Nothing has changed. Andy is still bouncing from program to program and still has not managed
6 in almost two years to successfully complete the first of three programs that he has agreed to
7 participate in, Batterer's treatment, DV Dads and Respectful Parenting.
8 I also believe that further evidence of that fact that Andy has not changed is his continued
9 abuse of me through the courts. During our divorce Andy filed a motion for a restraining order
10 against me (October 2005) which was denied. In November he brought a motion for bad faith
11 sanctions, also denied. In December 2005, when my attorney was trying to find out if Andy was
12 in DV treatment, Andy brought a motion to keep us from having access to his file at the
13 treatment program he was in at that time, despite the fact that he had already signed releases to
14 have the treatment provider provide me with the same information he was objecting to. Then in
15 July of 2006 he and his mother snuck over to District Court and obtained two ex parte
16 protections orders keeping my mother and me away from him and his mother. Those petitions
17
were ultimately dismissed at the hearing. The judge made it clear that they had not met their
18
burden of proof and he believed they had only brought the petitions to attempt to gain some
advantage in the family law case. At that same time he brought a motion to have me found in
19
contempt, also denied. We entered into a CR2a agreement in August 2006 but Andy
20
immediately began backing off on his agreements. We were ultimately forced back into court to
21
get the final orders entered. Since our divorce was finalized in the fall of 2006 Andy has filed a
22
Motion to Disqualify and Dismiss my attorney. This was a completely frivolous motion that his
23
attorney did not confirm and was never heard. Nevertheless I had to incur attorney fees for my
24
attorney to respond to this stupid motion. Then he filed another motion to have me found in
25
contempt. That motion was also denied. At the same time, Andy has hired yet another attorney
26
who has filed a grievance against my attorney with the Washington State Bar Association. He
27
has also filed a grievance against my attorney's law partner because he stood in for my attorney
28
once last summer. I have read the grievance and it is based entirely on their assertion that my

30

Page 6
1 attorney never told the truth and Andy and his attorney always told the truth so therefore my
2 attorney was not truthful with the court. We know these grievances will go nowhere and Andy
3 knows that too. It is just another tool to continue to abuse me and anyone that stands by me.
4 Another recent example is his refusal to pay for any daycare for our child while I am in
5 school. He says he does not have to pay for day care unless it is "work" related and since I am
6 going to school so I can work, he says that is not work related. Why would he do this other than
7 to make my life very hard? Why does he still need to beat me up? I will be forced to file a
8 motion on this issue of daycare while I am in school and in an unpaid externship as I believe that
9 is work. If he was a fully supportive father he would want me to get an education and a job and
10 he would be willing to help with daycare. Instead it is all a game. I only mention it here to show
11 how much he continues to be an abusive person and has not changed and understand the issue of
13 Frankly I am very tired of having to tell this court, once again, that Andy continues to be
14 an abusive person. For once I would love to be able to say, "Hey look, Andy is doing what he is
16 Andy is not only asking that he get more time with our daughter, he is also requesting
17
that the court do away with the restrictions in our final parenting plan, that the court now say that
18
we have joint decision making and that the case manager's role be substantially expanded to shift
the focus away from him to me. As I understand it from what my attorney has explained to me,
19
there is no such thing as a "Motion to Modify a Parenting Plan." Our final parenting plan
20
anticipates these changes and there is simply no basis for the changes he is requesting. I assume
21
his lawyer can read the law, just like mine can. As I understand it RCW 26.09.260 is the only
22
statute that allows a modification of a parenting plan and that statute requires that the court find
23
that there is adequate cause after a Summons and Petition to Modify has been filed. If the court
24
finds that there is adequate cause to proceed then a trial date is set. Andy and his attorney are
25
apparently asking that the court ignore the law in this regard and modify the parenting plan to
26
take away all of the restrictions that Andy and his attorney agreed to last August.
27
This motion is in bad faith and I would ask that I be awarded $3,500.00 in attorney fees
28
and bad faith sanctions for having to respond to this and for his continuing abusive use of this
29
conflict.

Andy needs to fully immerse himselfi..-ito his treatment with Mr. Todd a.."1.d truly learn how
10
domestically violent behavior permeates every aspect of one's life, most especially the life of his
child_
.11
Likewise I am not fully convinced that Jennifer will not return to her use of alcohol. Her history
12. would certainly lend itself in that direction and it is imperative that she remain in her therapy and
follow the recom.-nendations of all of her treatment professionals. No o;;ie wants to see her fail
13 and Lauren needs a clean, sober and healthy mom.
Mv recommendations are:
15
l. The Mother should be 1he residential placement for the child.
16
2. · The father must remain in bis Domestic Violence Treatment v>:ith Dale Todd and follow all
17 recommendations of such.
18 3. When he has finished the first phase of Domestic Violence Treatment be should enroll in
the appropriate parenti_ng class through Fa.-nily Services.
19
4. The mother must remain in her therapy until such time.as the therapist deems it no JOnger
20 .necessa.-y.
21
5. .The mother must follow all recommendations of her Drug and Alcohol Evaluation.
22
6. The father's Visitation should continue as is until he has completed foe first phase of his
23 · Domestic Violence Treatment successfully and the mother has spoken with Dale Todd and
he is satisfied that the father is progressing.. ·

J.2
13
Icarefully. I know that this father ~ill not be pleased that I have not recommended immediate
unsupervised visits and/or overnights but he must understand that my job is to protect this ohild,
not to give parents what they want or think that they should have and/or are entitled to.
14 This child is entitled to a life free of Domestic Violence and Alcohol Abuse and it is the job of
both her parents to provide that for her. Until recently that has not been the case and so now both
15
slie and they must suffer the consequences of those choices. Change takes time and tremendous
16
effort, let us hope that both parents can s'.and that test of time and move forward successfully and

give Lauren a life free of Domestic Violence and Alcohol Abuse and that thev become at peace

Family Court Services' collective experience tells us that families and their
legal advocates need current information which is focused on the-need,s of children .
. · These guidelines are based on child development theory and on research reg~ding
children .of divorce. This guide is offered to help identify the type of residential·
schedule suited to the needs of each child. The guidelines only provide some of the
information that may be needed, but do present some of the possibilities for a
. schedule. Tbey should not, however, be considered r_ules, laws, or be used rigidly.

THE CHILD'S NEEDS
DEVELOPMENTAL ASPECTS
CBirth to 6 months) For the baby it is essential to have consistency of physical care
and sensitive, cooperative interaction between the infant and caregiver.· The II
I I
pattern of access should not interrupt the ability of the parents to provide smcioth •' II
·! !
child care routines. Access periods should occur frequently enough to facilitate good
bonding between the infant and parents. Daily contact of a few h6U:rs in the ·
• • 1 • •
. primary residence of the infant would be the optimal plan -with b()th p'arents
sharing in feeding, bathing, changing, and otherwise caring for the infa."1.t as well as
playing with the child.
residential parent. Special family circumstan·ces may require that access periods
occur in a protected setting or in the office of a mental health professional.
EXHlBJTJ:::--
B-2
During early infancy frequent and predictable contact with the child
is best. Unless Circui:nstances allow several contacts a week, time with the
child away from the residential parent should be limited to one or two
hours.
As for younger infants, the more frequent and stable the pattern of access,
the longer it can be. If frequency is less than once or twice a week, access ·
shouid not be more than one to three hours. Children this age need
routine contact with familiar people. Overnights away from the primary
caregiver should be discouraged unless the instability for the child is
outweighed by other factors'.
PRESCHOOLERS C3 TO 5 'YEARS)
The level of conflict between parents appears to be more important than the
schedule of .contact for preschool children: Almost as important is the
PREDICTABILITY OF THE CONTACT. Frequent contact also is indicated.
·Sporadic, infrequent access is clearly contraindicated.

8 SUPERIOR COURT OF WASHINGTON
9
COUNTY OF SNOHOMISH
16 My name is Jennifer LeSourd and I was formerly known as Jennifer Rife. I make
17 this declaration based on my own personal knowledge.
18 As I understand it, Andrew Rife is once again asking that this court modify the
19 parenting plan without bringing a Petition to Modify the Parenting Plan or without asking
20 the court to find that there is adequate cause to modify the parenting plan. This is not the
21 first time he has made this request and this is not the first time I have made this objection.
22 I am attaching the declarations I have previously filed so that I don't have to repeat
23 myself each time.
24 Frankly I have to say that I have been quite alarmed at how negative and
·25 destructive Mr. Rife's behavior has been since we signed the final parenting plan. I was
26 hopeful that things would settle down but they did not. There is always the issue of
27 Andy's refusal to complete a state certified and WAC compliant DV treatment course.
28 He was ordered into treatment because he was arrested and convicted of assaulting me in
29 2005. In over two years he has not managed to finish a one year DV treatment course.
4 programs and I am aware that their refusal to communicate with me violates the WACS
5 that govern DV treatment programs. I really don't care that they allegedly have talked to
6 Bridget Llewellyn as she was not the victim of Andy extreme abuse and frankly I have
7 Jong ago stopped believing anything she says. I hate to say this but frankly I think Bridget
8 Llewellyn has some unresolved issues that prevent her from being objective in any way.
9 She has become meaningless as a Case Manager and is not useful or helpful in any way.
10 My family and I have grown so concerned over her abusive behavior that we recently
11 hired Jennifer Keilin who is a well known Parenting Evalu'ator and GAL. We provided
12
her with Bridget's complete file and with all the information we had in this case relevant
to the GAL/Case Manager and asked her to give us a second opinion. Her report is
13
attached. I concur fully with her report and it frankly speaks for itself.
14
I also want to note that Andy has abused the conflict here in ways that this court is
15
not even aware of. We entered our final parenting plan in November of 2006. In
16
December he brought a motion seeking to have my attorney disqualified from
17
representing me. His attorney stuck the motion before it was heard but we were forced to
18
respond never the Jess. Right after that he began bringing grievances with the
19
Washington State Bar Association against both my attorney and her Jaw partner· who
20
stood in for her on two occasions in my case.
21
Between January and August of 2007 Andy kept up a relentless barrage of
22
grievances directed at my attorney. He hired an attorney, as Mr. Ripley, who I
23
understand was also Mr. Gaul's attorney when he was suspended from practicing for
24
some short period of time. Andy's grievance was his claim that every word Ms. Dyer
25
ever spoke in court was a lie. Then he apparently hired a private investigator to tear apart
26
Ms. Dyer's life. Everything little thing they could find was brought up. They frankly
27
were not having much luck until they found a lien that Ms. Dyer's office had filed many
28
years ago that was apparently a very small violation of the Jaw governing attorney
29
conduct. Ms. Dyer immediately withdrew the lien. This lien, having nothing to do with

ORIGINAL
1 this case, is the only thing the WSBA found that she had even come close to doing
2 wrong. The point is Ms. Dyer and Mr. Primont have had to spend their ovm time and
3 money defending themselves against Andy and his specious and false allegations for over
4 six months. As I now understand the bar is obligated to investigate every complaint, no
5 matter how clear it is that it is just brought to harass an attorney. Every time she would
6 respond, Andy's attorney would find something else and keep the ball rolling. Ms. Dyer
7 estimates that she has spent over $25,000.00 in attorney fees in defending herself against
10 better paying job and have started school to obtain my nursing degree. This required that
11 our daughter be in preschool or daycare. Andy refused to pay any share of the day care
12 expense. He forced me to arbitrate this issue. I prevailed on the arbitration but Andy has
still not paid his full share of what he was ordered to pay." My point is that he has
13
continued to abuse me and this conflict in any way he can.
14
I have been very concerned because it is clear that Andy and his family are saying
15
very terrible things about me and my family to our daughter. Her statements when she
16
comes back from visitations are very troubling. There is a long history of this. Don
17
Layton noted Andy's "toxic rage" towards me and my family as a problem for Andy in
18
2006. He recommended that Andy get some individual therapy to deal with his anger but
19
Ms. Llewellyn has simply ignored this recommendation, even though she was the one
20
who sought out Mr. Layton's opinion.
21
Andy has simply not changed. He is spiteful and mean any time I see him. When
22
we are here at court he almost always is agitated when we are out in the hall. I see him
23
pacing up and down and several times he has made very rude and hateful comments
24
towards my parents if they are here with me. He has tried to provoke my father into a
25
fight on several occasions. His anger simply spills over, regardless of what I do or say. I
26
have come to believe that this frankly has very little to do with me anymore, it is really
27
all about Andy's uncontrolled anger and his need to get back at me for exposing his
28
abuse.

1 I am attaching a transcript from a hearing we were at in the summer of 2005, right
2 after he and his mother had obtained anti harassment orders against my mother and I.
3 The orders were ultimately dismissed with the judge commenting that there was no
4 evidence at all but it was clear that Mr. Rife and his mother were only using the court
5 system to attempt to gain an advantage in the family law litigation. At that time he was
6 warned by the commissioner that he needed to pay attention to his treatment and stop
8 Andy is supposed to take a class called DV Dads but he has managed to make it
9 appear that he is in compliance even though he his not in that class. He is not in that
10 class because his treatment provider refused to talk to Family Services treatment
11 program, also a violation of the WACS. So, let me get this straight: Andy is not moving
12 forward with his treatment because his current treatment is refusing to do something they
are required by law to do. And that is all right? It is not.
13
And now, even though he is still not in DV Dads he is asking the court, without a
14
Petition to Modify the Parenting Plan, to just get rid of the RCXW 26.08.191 restrictions
15
in our parenting plan. I want to be clear to the court: His abuse was not just verbal or
16
emotional. Andy is physically abusive as well as emotionally abusive. He is abusing our
17
daughter now by constantly telling her lies about me. Things he has no business telling
18
our child. To say that he is a wonderful parent (as Bridget seems to do) is simply not
19
objective. He is full of anger at our exchanges. Our child comes back to me saying
.20
terrible things to me about me. Things she could only hear from her father.
21
From what I can tell Andy has not changed at all. All he has apparently learned
22
from the five treatment agencies he has been in is how to take his abuse underground.
23
Now he is.using this system to abuse me and anybody that wants to help me, such as my
24
attorney.
25
Andy has forced my attorney and her law partner to waste over $30,000.00 of
26
their time in the last six months with his abusive grievances to the bar association. He
27
has refused to pay his share of day care or pre school expenses without being absolutely
28
forced to do so. He continues to come to this court with illegal motions (i.e, asking to
29
modif)• the parenting plan without bringing a Petition and seeking a finding of adequate

cause). This is clear abuse of this conflict. I have made this request in the past but I am.
asking again. Please see this for what it is and stop him by ordering that he pay
$30,000.00 in attorney fees for his abuse of this conflict.
I am not attaching the grievance file to this declaration as it contains much private
information about Ms. Dyer and Mr. Priillont. It is certainly available to the court to
review in private. It is clear from reading it that Andy is willing to spend any amount to
continue to abuse me and anyone that works with me. Please stop him and send him a
message that this abuse will not be tolerated.
I am asking that there be no change in Andy's time with our daughter until he is
enrolled in DV Dads and making satisfactory progress.

503 12th Avenue East
Seattle, WA 98102
This matter was referred to me by the office of Jan Dyer, the attorney for Ms. LeSourd, on July
26, 2007. Ms. Dyer requested that I review Ms. Llewellyn's Case Manager Report of July 26,
2007 and provide my opinion regarding any concerns I noted about Ms. Llewellyn's process,
opinions and recommendations.
My opinion is based solely on my review of Ms. Llewellyn's report and these materials. This
report is intended to be used solely for the current litigation and no other purpose.
Introduction
Ms. Llewellyn was appointed as the case manager for Mr. Rife and Ms. LeSourd, regarding their
child, in November of 2006. Ms. Llewellyn provided her Case Manager Report on July 26,
2007, in advance ofa scheduled hearing on August 13, 2007. In her report, Ms. Llewellyn
provided an update regarding a number of events since the last hearing on April 5, 2007, stated
some opinions and made recommendations.
On page 1, Ms. Llewellyn discusses Mr. Rife's progress in completing his DV Dads program.
On page 1, line 20, she states Mr. Rife is "unable to follow through" with the court ordered
requirement of attending Family Services DV Dads program because his Evergreen Manor
treatment provider refuses to speak with Family Services. Her ·statement that Mr. Rife is unable
to follow through appears to be somewhat misleading. According to the Family Services client
progress report of May 2007, Mr. Rife can be "considered for re-entry to DV Dads once he has
satisfactorily completed the requirements of his primary DV program." On page 4, line 10 of her
report, Ms. Llewellyn stated Mr. Rife is willing to seek entry to the DV Dads program at that
time. It appears that Ms. Llewellyn should have stated "Mr. Rife is unable to follow through at
this time." On page 2, line 1 of her report, Ms. Llewellyn reported Mr. Rife "will finish his
Treatment in September ... " It appears Mr. Rife will soon be eligible to re-enter the DV Dads
program. It is not clear why Ms. Llewellyn believes he is unable to follow through with this
requirement and it appears her conclusion is somewhat inaccurate.
Regarding Evergreen Manor's refusal to .provide information to Family Services, Ms. Llewellyn
should be aware that WAC 388-60-0145(3) requires domestic violence perpetrator program
participants to sign a release "allowing the current domestic violence perpetrator treatment
program access to infonnation held by all prior and concurrent treatment agencies, including
domestic violence perpetrator treatment programs, mental health agencies, and drug and alcohol
treatment programs." Mr. Rife signed a release for Family Services to access his treatment
information from Evergreen Manor, as noted in Family Services client progress report of May
2007. Ms. Llewellyn does not appear to consider that Evergreen Manor's failure to share
LeSourd/Rife Matter
Page 3 of6
information, which prevents Mr. Rife from progressing in his court ordered treatment
requirements and delays expansion of his parenting time, may constitute a form of malpractice
and may be actionable. She appears to conclude that Mr. Rife has no control over Evergreen
Manor's decision, but does not report any steps Mr. Rife took to remedy this situation. She
herself does not appear to inquire as to any steps that may be taken, such as putting an official
request in writing through Mr. Rife's attorney, having Mr. Rife provide a complete copy of his
treatment file to Family Services, speaking with Roy Carson in Olympia, or even lodging a
complaint. There seems to be an emphasis on "not rocking the boat" with Mr. Rife's Evergreen
Manor treatment provider, perhaps at the expense of holding Mr. Rife accountable.
On page I, line 21, Ms. Llewellyn reports that Mr. Rife's Evergreen Manor provider said
" ... when he saw what other providers had been through in this case there was no way that he was
going to put himself in the same position." She does not appear to inquire nor does she report
how communicating with Family Services would create a problem for Evergreen Manor, even
though communication between the programs appears to be expected and provided for by the
WACs. There appears to be an implicit assumption that Mr. Rife's previous domestic violence
perpetrator providers were treated improperly or poorly, although the legal record and Ms.
Llewellyn's previous reports reflect that Mr. Rife changed from two agencies specifically
because of issues surrounding WAC compliance.
Although Ms. Llewellyn previously recommended Mr. Rife engage in treatment that met the
WAC requirements, she now appears to blame Ms. Dyer for Mr. Rife's lack of progress in
treatment. In her Case Manager Statement of April I, 2007, Ms. Llewellyn stated Ms. Dyer "has
gone about sabotaging" Mr. Rife's treatment (page 2, line 18), that Ms. Dyer waited until Mr.
Rife had completed 25 weeks of Phase one before she "made sure ... Mr. Rife should get no
credit for any of his treatment ... " (page 3, line 5), credited Ms. Dyer with an "effective
sabotage" because Mr. Todd "declined to do further treatment because he was going by his
license requirements" (page 3, lines 13 - 14), and stated Mr. Rife's had trouble focusing on his
restarted treatment because of his perception of "constant harassment" (page 3, line 16). Ms.
Llewellyn does not appear to hold Mr. Rife accountable for his actions related to his domestic
violence treatment, including continuing with a provider after learning the provider was
practicing outside of the WAC, insisting another provider give credit for that treatment even
though that was outside the WAC, and having trouble focusing on treatment because he
ultimately had to start over. This appears to continue even now, as stated above, as Ms.
Llewellyn does not seem to think Mr. Rife bears any responsibility for his current provider's
refusal to speak to Family Services despite Mr. Rife's signed authorization. It is a concern that
Ms. Llewellyn's strong negative feelings about Ms. Dyer may be preventing her from holding
Mr. Rife accountable for his choices and behavior as is her duty as case manager.
Ms. Llewellyn discusses Mr. Rife' s voluntary completion of an alternate parenting class. On
page 2, line 3, Ms. Llewellyn states Mr. Rife completed the "seven (7) week S.T.E.P. Parenting
Class through Providence Hospital's Family Resource Center. On page 4, line I 0, Ms.
Llewellyn states Mr. Rife remains willing to go to DV Dads "even though he did the S.T.E.P.
class." Ms. Llewellyn appears to equate the S.T.E.P. Parenting Class with Family Services DV
Dads program. These two programs are very different. Providence Hospital's website describes
their S.T.E.P. parenting class as a program "designed to help you become a better parent. STEP
LeSourd/Rife Matter
Page 4 of6
participants work together in small discussion groups allowing parents to become actively
involved in discussing common concerns and learning specific child-training ideas and skills."
Family Services brochure describes DV Dads as an "innovative group [that] helps men
understand the effect of their domestic violence and abusive behavior on the children who have
been or are in their lives. We cover child development, parenting techniques and communication
skills, all in the context of violence in the child's home." Ms. Llewellyn's apparent acceptance
of Mr. Rife's completion ofa S.T.E.P. Parenting class in lieu of Family Services DV Dads is a
concern and seems inappropriate as it is outside the court order of April 5, 2007. While she does
not specifically recommend that Mr. Rife no longer be required to follow through with DV Dads,
her visitation recommendation on page 5 is no longer contingent on his completion of that
program, as it was in the past.
Ms. Llewellyn describes her impression of Mr. Rife's parenting abilities and relationship with
the child. On page 2, line 6, she makes a very strong, affirmative statement on Mr. Rife's behalf:
"!can assure the court that Lauren is her father's number one priority. Nothing in his life comes
before Lauren and her needs." This brings up two concerns. First, Ms. Llewellyn appears to be
advocating for Mr. Rife and her strong, unqualified statement suggests a lack of objectivity.
Although Ms. Llewellyn's role in this matter is as a case manager, for which there appear to be
no documented rules of conduct, she also continues to identify herself as a Guardian ad Litem by
profession and should be bound by the Guardian ad Litem rules. Washington State Superior
Court Guardian ad Litem Rule 2(b) states, "A guardian ad !item shall maintain independence,
objectivity and the appearance of fairness in dealings with parties and professionals .... " Second,
Ms. Llewellyn appears to now see Mr. Rife's parenting and relationship with the child as
separate from the issue of domestic violence. The domestic violence literature is clear that
domestic violence issues are intertwined in the perpetrator's parenting and relationship with the
children in a number of ways. It is a concern that Ms. Llewellyn would make this statement on
Mr. Rife's behalf before he completed his domestic violence related treatment requirements,
particularly the DV Dads component.
Ms. Llewellyn reports asking Ms. LeSourd to share any concerns she has with Ms. Llewellyn.
On page 2, line 18, Ms. Llewellyn stated Ms. LeSourd provided her with "some thirteen (13)
pages of mostly regurgitated complaints about Andy and his alleged behavior." Ms. Llewellyn's
statement is disrespectful of Ms. LeSourd and trivializes her concerns. This is inconsistent with
Guardian ad Litem Rule 2(f) which states, "A guardian ad !item is an officer of the court and as
such shall at all times treat the parties with respect, courtesy, fairness and good faith." Ms.
Llewellyn goes on to say, " ... for the most part [Ms. LeSourd's concerns] are not things that
could not be worked out if the two were actually talking to each other ... " She appears to hold
Ms. LeSourd primarily accountable for the lack of communication between the two parties,
which may indeed be related to the restraining order Ms. LeSourd obtained subsequent to Mr.
Rife' s assault.
Ms. Llewellyn references nature of the litigation a few times in her case manager report,
describing "continuous hostile litigation in this case (page 2, line 23)" and " ... the litigious
nightmare that is this case (page 4, line 8) ... " Ms. Llewellyn appears to hold Ms. LeSourd and
her attorney primarily responsible for this, as evidenced by her case manager statement of April
I, 2007 in which she openly blames Ms. Dyer. The legal record appears to reflect that Mr. Rife
LeSourd/Rife Matter
Page 5 of6
and his attorney initiated or necessitated a number oflegal actions, including an attempt to
disqualify Ms. Dyer as attorney for Ms. LeSourd, refusing to pay daycare costs, filing a
protection order against Ms. LeSourd and her mother, seeking to expand the visitation schedule
before meeting court ordered requirements, and even pursuing a bar complaint against Ms. Dyer.
It is a concern that Ms. Llewellyn does not appear to consider that the number and nature of Mr.
Rife's multiple legal actions may rise to the level of abusive use of conflict. It would be
reasonable for her to weigh whether Mr. Rife is abusing Ms. LeSourd through the legal system
and if he is failing to effect changed behavior despite progressing through domestic violence
treatment. Ms. Llewellyn's strong, negative feelings towards Ms. Dyer may be preventing her
from holding Mr. Rife accountable and making appropriate recommendations.
A specific example of Ms. Llewellyn seeming to fail to hold Mr. Rife accountable relates to his
proposed parenting plan filed on March 19, 2007. This plan eliminated the RCW 20.09.191
restrictions related to his domestic violence, despite the fact he was currently in a domestic
violence perpetrator's program and had been criminally charged for assaulting Ms. LeSourd.
This should have been a red flag to Ms. Llewellyn regarding Mr. Rife's commitment to taking
responsibility for his behavior. A similar example occurred in June of 2007 when Mr. Rife filed
a motion to expand his time with Lauren based on Ms. LeSourd's school schedule. To support
his motion, Mr. Rife attached statements written by his family members in 2005, at the start of
this action, which spoke highly of his parenting, insisted he would never harm anyone and spoke
negatively of Ms. LeSourd's parenting, character and lifestyle. This, too, should have concerned
Ms. Llewellyn. These actions by Mr. Rife suggest that he may not be taking responsibility for
his behavior, continues to blame his victim, and is not manifesting changed behavior. Ms.
Llewellyn does not comment on this behavior in her reports.
Ms. Llewellyn goes on to discuss her contact with the child's preschool. On page 3, line 16, Ms.
Llewellyn reported speaking with the child's Montessori school director and "advised Felicia to
refuse to discuss anything other than Lauren's welfare with any person dropping off or picking
up." Advising the preschool to take certain actions appears inappropriate as it is outside the
scope of Ms. Llewellyn's court ordered case manager duties.
Ms. Llewellyn describes her impression of the child's needs. On page 4, line 12 of her report,
Ms. Llewellyn states, "Lauren needs a regular, normal pattern of contact with BOTH parents and
regardless of what the prior agreement was, we need to move forward." ... " Her statement is
somewhat unclear, as Lauren currently has regular, unsupervised visitation time with Mr. Rife
each week. Ms. Llewellyn fails to describe any difficulties manifested by the child that support a
need to change the schedule at this time and, in fact, appears to report things are going well for
her (page 2, line 5; page 3, line 19).
Ms. Llewellyn goes on to give her current recommendations. On page 5, Ms. Llewellyn
recommends a substantial increase in Mr. Rife's parenting time. She provides no evidence to
support that this recommendation is in the child's best interests as demonstrated by the child. It
is a concern that Ms. Llewellyn is recommending increased visitation at this time despite the fact
Mr. Rife has not yet completed the requirements necessary to qualif)' for additional time, as
ordered by the court on April 5, 2007.
LeSourd/Rife Maner
Page 6 of6
In summary, there are a number of concerns present in Ms. Llewellyn's report, including the
appearance of a lack of objectivity, a pattern ofleniency in favor of Mr. Rife and of appearing to
attribute greater responsibility and blame to Ms. LeSourd and Ms. Dyer. Ms. Llewellyn's
recommendation for increased time for Mr. Rife does not appear to be supported by the available
facts.

.PRESENT:
Tracy Waggoner, Commissioner
·Jan Dyer, Attorney
·Carl Gaul, Attorney
Jennifer Rife
Andrew Rife
JD: Thank you Commissioner. I believe this is my motion. Let me introduce myself for the record.
I am Jan .Dyer. I represent Jennifer Rife who is here on my left. Mr. Gaul is on my right. He
represents Andrew Rife, just for the record. And there's two .motions before the court.
Originally I had filed a motion asking for a change in the supervisor to professional supervision
for this visitation case. I do want to note to the court, I think you know we're 21 days from trial
at this juncture. Mr. Gaul, on behalf of his client, has obtained an _·_ cause and a contempt
motion .. That motion has never been served on my client by personal service. It was faxed to my
office. We do not accept faxed service. Mr. Gaul is aware of that. In addition, we had indicated ·
that we would accept service and we will accept service. My client's address is confidential and
we had hoped to keep that confidential and we've always indicated that we would accept service.
I
In my, at least my practice is· acceptance of service means you're sending a form and I sign it and
\ we file it and it says thai: I've accepted service. I've asked Mr. Gaul over and over to provide
that form to me. No form has been forthcoming. I don't really know what to say about that. Mr.
Gauljust personally.served my client on Friday with a new contempt motion to be heard in a few
weeks. So he does understand that the need for personal service is there, but my client has never
been personally served, nor has my office been adequately served with this motion. And I'd ask
at today's hearing for contempt to be stricken. I'd like to move forward with my motion.
TW: Go ahead.
JD·· Thank you. There's a long history with this case. I've tried to provide the court some
background. We can't certainly give the court the whole file on 'everything.
JD: I understand that. I'm not going to try and argue the entire case. In three weeks we're going to
argue that. But this has been a very, very troubling case. The case started out with two DV
arrests. After the second arrest of Mr. Rife, he filed this petition for dissolution of marriage. At
every juncture in this case it's been ordered that he have supervised visitation.· He's been
ordered into domestic violence treatment. And the criminal case, the Guardian Ad Litem in our
case has recommended that he have domestic violence treatment. There has been ... I think vou
see .the letters ... a huge brouhaha with whether or not he has to do the first phase in the gr~up:
The State Certification Agency has said yes, that's how it has to be. The Guardian Ad Litem
recommended finally that he get in to treatment with Dale Todd. He did. But Mr. Todd,
unwilling to buck the W Al:; wanting to do the program the way the WAX tell him to do it, when
1
he received an order from the Municipal Court saying he had to accept first phase credits as an
~~ -
of treatment' ·he withdrew from the case. And I tl>ink it's interesting to note that the
Municipal Court case says treatment with Dale Todd. Ms. Llewellyn's recommendations are for
Mr. Rife to completely immerse himself into treatment with Dale Todd, a specific treatment
provider, because Mr. Rife has now been through three treatment providers; each time
something, either he quits or he gets removed. i think thi.s is important because we've gone
along with supervised visitation here and today what it is that we are finally asking the court that
the supervision become professionally supervised.
TW: Okay, let me interject a question here. One of the questions that I have is I appreciate the fact
that District Court for purposes of whatever pending criminal action, has taken whatever steps
they want. This is a thick file and I don't want to be operating under an incorrect assumption.
Where is, or what order requires that a DV program be completed?
JD: No there is not. It's been assumed because it was ordered in Municipal Court the court ... itjust
has to do with what's required in Municipal Court. It's not been specifically ordered in this case
and you are absolutely correct in that. It has been recommended by ...
JD: No, you're_ absolutely correct. That has not been ordered in this case. Thi.s case sort
of. .. because the Municipal Court case happened first it was just sort of tracking along. Although
it has been recommended. We have the GAL's report and it was clearly a recommendation in
there as well. I just wanted to point out that Municipal Court ordered that he remain in treatment
with Mr. Todd. Ms. Llewellyn also recommended he remain in treatment with Mr. Todd. Mr.
Todd washed his hands of the case and said I'm not going to do it because I'm not going to go
against what I know to be the WAX:. And so there is a problem there. But a more .... and that has
been a problem throughout the case: And I would say that that is sort of a thing that's out there.
The treatment. It's clear that Mr. Rife has tried to avoid treatment at every cost. And the one
assessment we do have has been from Davis & Company. We've had that all along. Mr. Todd
has relied on it. And I think that it's Important for the court to understand that we're not talking
about just sort of maybe a little bit of domestic violence. When they did their assessment at
Davis & Company he was in the dangerous range on control. He was in the problem risk range
on truthfulness. And he was in the problem risk range on violence. And I just ... may harbor a lot
of poorly repressed resentment, anger and even hostility, needs close supervision. When upset,
which I _ he was now also, this person's emotions all too easily interfere with his judgment.
Under perceived stress this individual could be assaultive and potentially dangerous. He was all
those things to my client during their marriage. Our concern now is for this very small child.
I'm going to ta!k about Lauren probably more than might be comfortable because we've lost
track of Lauren, the baby, in this whole case. This case has turned so into getting Jenn that we
just don't talk about Lauren. And we are here today to talk about .Lauren. Initially the
grandmother, Mr. Rife's mother, was the supervisor. My client's mother has been the person to
also do the exchanges. And I also think it's very interesting to note, and that's kind of going
along okay, but you've got people who aren't parties, for example. And that's a problem now.
2
After the anti-harassment orders, the complete false allegations that have been made against my
client, no one in the Holland family is willing to step forward.
JD: That is this next Friday, Your Honor. And I have provided you with the petitions and I have
provided you a lot of answers.
TW: I appreciate that. I just wanted to know when it's set for.
JD: We asked that it be joined with this case. The District Court denied that notion and set it over to
a 'date after this hearing, indicating that they hoped that today's hearing would resolve that. I
don't know how that cart happen. But maybe you can be creative in that regard. It has now
gotten to a juncture where it's clear that the supervisor is not supervising anything. She is
basically .... and I'm talking about Wendy Rife at this point who is· the supervisor. She is actually
enabling her son to be a better abuser. She is not supervising. There has been problem after
problem after problem with the exchanges. And I was looking back .in the file. I note that the
GAL actually on May 15, and I've given you a copy of the letter, there's a letter in here dated
May 15 from the GAL which she says very clearly .... this is May 15. This is just after they've
done this exchange on the 6th that's part of.: where Wendy Rife alleged that my client harassed
her at the exchange. And in fact we tell you that Wendy Rife essentially forced herself into Ms.
Holland's home and continued talking about inappropriate things. But it's interesting because
the Guardian Ad Litem at that point recommended that ... here is it, "the grandparents are
operating in the best interest of this child and trust they can work together toward the end. I
would suggest that neither parent be present at the exchanges." Now back in May 15, if Mr. Rife
had taken that suggestion to heart, a lot of problems might have been resolved. And Mr. Rife has
insisted on being in the car at every exchange. My client doesn't go to the exchanges. She may
be at the parent's house when the child is dropped off, but.for the most part she stays out of the
way. There's no protection order against her, but she just feels that it's best to keep distance.
But he comes in the car every time, makes faces, makes comments, makes noises, honks the
horn. And his mother doesn't ever. stop. him. If you say that's not appropriate can you not do
that at exchanges? Oh it's just fun, he's just being a boy. He would never hurt you. He would
never .... he's a good guy. She just defends him. This is not a supervisor. We can't deal with the
family anymore. My client .and family can no longer take the risk that they're going to be
arrested, that they're going to be served with something else, that they're going to be accused of
some other false allegation. They just can't do this any longer. And we're submitting to .the
court that Wendy Rife is an .inappropriate supervisor any longer. She filed an anti-harassment
petition against my client. The supervisor files what we consider very false, very false
allegations. Allegations against my client at a visitation exchange. And then somehow says how
should this not stop visitation. Mr. Rife has done nothing. He's no longer in treatment with Dale
Todd. To our knowledge he's not in treatment. We are three weeks from trial and we have
another contempt motion coming at us on the 11th and we have a hearing on Friday on these anti-
h!lrassment motions. It seems to me more designed to keep us from getting ready for trial and
getting this thing moving forward. The court's not going to have any information for it when we
get to trial about supervision, about visitation. All they're going to have is a self-serving
testimony of Ms .. Rife. We need professional supervisor notes at this point. We need a
professional supervisor in this case. I know the GAL is not recommending this and I know the
GAL is recommending immediate resumption of visitation and I just want to make a note here,
and I would like to reserve a few minutes in rebuttal on this issue. But unfortunately ... we have
3
the GAL recommendations. We agree to them. We would sign a planning plan in a moment that
incorporated them. That does not seem possible. Mr. Rife does not apparently agree with GAL
recommendations. The report is finished. The GAL has now weighed in on this issue without
doing the investigation. Without talking to my client. \Vithout talking to my client's mother.
TW: Okay, I'm going to listen to her first so then you can respond to what she has to say.
TIV: Go ahead.
BL: This case has taken on a total life of its own. I'm not quite sure what it has to do with this child
and what is just a fight between not only the parties but by the attorneys as well. There's an
order in November that says that the DA also returned visitation and who was supervising. I
asked that it be resumed. That was ignored. I said I would get another letter _ _. Then I said it
will resume and that was followed by threatening phone calls by five-page single-spaced letters
and counsel accused me ofbeirig in __ pocket amongst other things.
TW: Well, the issue to the court is whether or not his mother is any way appropriate at this point to be
a supervisor.
BL: I'm not sure what has happened. I did talk to the client. Ms. Dyer was on vacation. at the last
hearing. I spent most of the time talking with her and her sister trying to resolve this. I have
note pad's .. The last thing was not even between these two. It was allegedly between his brother
and her sister. How that ... I don't know what happened any more than Ms. Dyer knows what
happened. All we have is what these parties are teliing us at those exchanges. I offered to go
and observe an exchange so there wouldn't be any hassle a.-id it was turned down. So I don't
think that this grandmother is going to let anything happen to her gra.-iddaughter any more than I
think that ...
BL: Right I know that. But I'm not sure. I have been told. And apart froni being there I cannot be
sure whether he has been there every visit or not. I asked that he not go and because the child
was being taking back I believe at one point to Clearview, he was then losing half an hour of his
visit if he didn't drive back with them and wasn't willing to give that up.
TW: Do you have a position with regard to the whole issue of in this action, which is a completely
separate action than the Municipal Court criminal action, whether or not he should start DV
treatment over again? And be in group.
BL: Yes. And I've recommended that he does. And it's my understanding there's a signed document
with Catholic Community Services as of the 14'h .
TW: Of August.
4
BL: Of August. And the Municipal Court as far as they're concerned, when I talked to his parole
officer, said they were done with him. As far as they were concerned it was finished. He is just
being monitored. They have reassessed him and they assessed him as not a danger to the
community.
BL: And they told me they would not .... excuse me Ms. Dyer. ...
T\V: I appreciate that. This is not entered ... this is entered as a basis for her opinion. That's the only
purpose. Not for the truth of the matter stated.
BL: I'm not disputing court information ihat I received. I asked if it was coming out in writing and
they said no they would not be putting it in writing. I asked can I disclose what you're telling me
to all the parties .. Yes you can. We are done with hiin.
CG: Your Honor, Ms. Dyer's office received the order to show cause contempt and I have
accompanying documents on the 19th. Why she wants to assert that Mr. Primont's statement that
he would accept service and then a copy going to their office somehow isn't good enough, I
don't know. I have never had an attorney agree to accept service and I just send it off; and then
have a complaint that you didn't send along a form. I've never. ... when they agree to accept
service you just don't worry about it. Serve it like you would any motion. And that's what you
have in front of you. You'll notice the copy receipt stamp wit.h Mr. Primont's name on it. As to
the present motion, there's no indication that Wendy Rife has' allowed anything inappropriate to
go on. They're complaining that Andrew is present at the exchanges. He is in the car. They
stay out at the end of the driveway. Grandma takes the child to the door. What harm he is doing
by being in the car at the end of the driveway escapes me and I've never really heard why there
would be a problem with him being in the car at the end of the driveway. I've never heard a
statement that he got out ofthe car. I've never heard a statement that he directed any comment to
his estranged wife. I've never even heard that he directed any comment to the mother of his
estranged wife. I appreciate that they have a prejudice against him occupying space on the
planet. But there's no reason that he should not be in the car at the end of the driveway. Maybe
it would be better not to.
·AR: No mam.
CG: Now in this matter there is no order for domestic violence treatment. My client was ordered in to
a DV perpetrator's treatment program by the Everett Municipal Court. He has satisfied them.
He has completed the process. Now he has, because he recognizes that he has additional
education to obtain, he has arranged to commence treatment program through Catholic
Community Services and that's corning up on the 141.., of August. From the point of view of
advising him, this court didn't have an order. That court has the power to put him in jail if he
5
doesn't keep that court happy. You keep that court happy. And he's done that. Nciw that that's
accomplished he can turn his attention to whatever other matters he chooses and he chose to find
his way to .Catholic Community Services. As to everything else that you're being told, you're
basically being told the same thing that was in front of the court when the November 1, 2005
order was entered. You're being told that he's taking this domestic violence_·__ counsel was
reading from the computerized report from. Yeah he did. And that pre-dates the 11/01/05 order.
What she had to tell you is certainly no change. The change is that they brought a motion on an
emergency and ex-party basis before Commissioner Stewart. The motion was denied.
Immediately upon denial of the motion, counsel, Mr. Primont, not Ms. Dyer, notifies us that the
visit for the. next day won't happen. And by golly it doesn't. That's when Ms. Llewellyn was
trying to facilitate it. When the court denies an order and I step out intci the hall, I'm not
accustomed to hearing myself or the other side saying basically that they're going to grant
themselves the relief that the court just denied. So when the visit on the 8th didn't occur I
brought the order to show cause contempt. At that time Wendy ... Excuse me, Jennifer Rife had
been served a no contact order. That the grandmother who was doing the visitation exchanges
hadn't been served a no contact order.
CG: It did exist and it hadn't been served. And I was told she was out of town. The sister and the
brother-in-law were people who had done exchanges before and I don't have any clue why they
were· unavailable. The mother's duty is to deliver it. It's a delivering parent ruk And Mr.
Rife's duty at the other end is to deliver upon the return. He is entitled to 10 hours per week; 2
. th
hours on Monday and Wednesday and 6 hours on Saturday. And since the 7 when
Commissioner Stewart ruled, he has missed three Saturdays and four weekdays. There's an
assertion from the other side that exchanges are impossible. And if you saw what Bridget
'Llewellyn has been doing and the attachments that I have submitted you know we've been trying
to find alternatives, and in fact those letters don't get answered when I send them. Bridget got a
response. Anything is impossible if you want it to be. On the other hand, this child is entitled to
a relationship with her father and we're !Jeing met with a stone wall. And it's a pity that comes
up right in front of trial but I can't ignore it. I have to bring the contempt. I have to do
something to get this process going again. ·
JD: It's true, the __ commissioner in this case was in fact Commissioner Stewart. Why __
Commissioner Stewart and Mr. __ clients. We gave them notice _ _ hearing because it's
important. They were over in District Court the same day getting their asparte(?) restraining
order. They didn't tell anybody that was in court with them that day that that was happening.
They served their client. Now had we known about that before ... they were over next_._ saying
there's an emergency but they weren't telling Commissioner Stewart about that emergency. And
he believed there was no emergency and that this should ... denied it without prejudice .. Said set
it on for a regular hearing. Not. denied flatly. Because there was no emergency. And I mean
they're over in District Court saying emergency, emergency, we need immediate relief. Mr.
Gaul argues that Ms. Holland, the grandmother, wasn't available and it's true. She was out of
town for the weekend and that's why she wasn't served. When she came back into town on
Monday and Wednesday she did the visitations. She didn't know there was a protection order
against her. She went ahead and did the visitations. Mr. Rife showed up, was in the car. He had
just gotten a protection order against her that hadn't been served yet. Yet he came to those
6
v1s1tations. She did those visitations on Monday and Wednesday. He is not frightened. There
was no fright here. But yet they were over in District Court saying there's an emergency here,
Your Honor.
TW: So visits have been cut off since service of the orders?
JD: We continued with the visitations when it was only my client, Jennifer, that had been served.
But once Carol Holland got service of her protection order, there was no one to deliver any
longer. There was no in the family. They all stepped back. Brothers, sisters, ·everybody is like
this isn't going to happen. And they continued to come to the visitations. And Mr. Gaul says it's
the __ parent's obligation. It would have been her obligation then to· go violate the order that
Wendy Rife had obtained against her. This child has had that visitation for over eight months.
Grandmothers delivering. It's suddenly three weeks before trial, according to Ms. Llewellyn we
should do the police station, we should do Stacey Rife who is one of the worst offenders in this
whole pot of family. The things she said in the GAL' s report that are contained in the GAL' s
report about my client are sickening to us. Sickening to us. But yet now she's going to be the
supervisor. Or .we're going to go to the police 'station. We're going to go to the jail and we're
going to pick some strangers. We need professional supervision. The entire Rife family is bent
on revenge. These anti-harassment orders got under the cover of secrecy while we're here in
court. We're here. We're standing here. Could have easily gone over and argued them, but no.
We're going to run over there and tell them there's an emergency but. we won't tell
Commissioner Stewart about any emergencies. ·This whole thing is just very, very, very nasty.
And my client can no longer appear at visitations. She's violating order. Carol Holland can no
longer appear at visitations. She's violating order. So there is no one else in this family willing
to do it. We are three weeks from trial. This man is now in his fourth treatment program. If you
look at all the the courtroom and says, and I understand we're not in Municipal Court, but
the order says stay in treatment with Dale Toda and finish treatment with Dale Todd. It doesn't
say go to Catholic Family Services. The GAL's recommendation was just ignore Mr. Rife.
Don't come· to the interviews. Immerse yourself Immerse yourself into treatment with Mr.
Todd and learn something from it. This is about denial, blaming it on Jenn. We are over a year
later, over a year later and he hasn't even finished phase one. This calls for supervised visitation,·
Your Honor. If a case ever called for supervised visitation. We at least need that safety for these
next three weeks so we can get to trial and we can develop all of these issues fully and fairly on
that basis.
CG: Your Honor, I appreciate the fervor of counsel but you want to talk about GAL's orders
ignored ... My client's complied.
TW: Okay. I've heard enough on this. I mean we're three weeks short of trial. There isn't ... there
hasn't been and it's quite frankly an oversight all the way around as far as the court can tell, that

And I'll remedy that today. Because while it is n0: un~c;u:uoa certainly to adopt the
recommendations of a pending criminal action, clearly •l:" pi..rprise was not to obviate the need
7
for that in any way because of sql!)LJJther court deciding that something was meant that was
clearly not in conformity with the ~ So this court does not accept what has been done .at all.
And they can accept whatever they want. It's an independent court. They can make whatever
rulings they want. This court is not bound by it. So Mr. Rife needs to get in to treatment and
needs to comply ... and that treatment needs to be treatment that compli.es with the wax. .There
have been from the court's perspective if there had been less game playing with that to begin
_with we probably wouldn'.t be here because I can tell you what this looks like to me is somebody
that's got DV issues that hasn't addressed them. Bottom line. There is huge control issues here ..
There is huge blaming the victim here. There is all kinds of issues here. I don't care how you
want to package it. You being in the car. There's been no denial of honking the ·horn, making
faces, creating big disturbance at exchanges. Your child is at .the exchange, sir. That's just
nonsense. At best it's nonsense. That's just ridi.culous. And similarly this whole protection
. order issue ... I mean, if somebody gets a protection order after they':ve gone into someone else's
home uninvited? I just am astonished by that. I have to say, I don't think that the grandma at
this point, Mr. Rife's mother, is in any way capable of being a supervisor in this matter because
she has interjected herse!.f in this way into the proceeding. And if she feels so unsafe by
mom ... I'm not saying that mom's actions .. .I don't know how she .has played into this dynamic
or otherwise. But quite frankly grandma's decided that she can't be around them so she can't be
a supervisor. Period. Because if they can't communicate about this child or if issues come up or
returning the child if there's a problem or anything else then she can't act as a super-Visor.
Period. So whether there's another person that is an appropriate supervisor in this family that
can stay out of the fray and act as a supervisor as opposed to an advocate for the father, I don't
know. I mean, you would be in a better position to know that than the court. Because that's
what the supervisor's role is. Not as an advocate for the father, but as supervisor for the child.
And it's apparently unclear to people here, extended people, what their role is and how to
accomplish that. Whether somebody .. .I don't know. Do you have an idea about that?
BL: These parties are at such odds and the families are at such odds that I don't think there's anybody
on either side who can do that. I just don't think there is. I wasn't suggesting Stacey as a
supervisor. I was just suggesting her as a transportation. But there's bad blood everywhere. I
don't have anybody to recommend. I guess I could do this. I don't know what the court's going
to recommend. And I don't like wearing two hats. But we are only three weeks out from trial. I
tried to be there present so that there was no altercation, but .... I could say that visitation will take
place in my own facility for the next three weeks. Supervised. That takes everybody's family
out of the loop.
JD: We won't object to it. We asked for Don Leighton to have another professional in this case that
has other credentials and take a different look at it. Mr. Leighton also I'm sure is a...... ·
JD: That's fine. I mean that would work too. I think .. .I'm actually looking for maybe a male person
that might turn some screw or make something work. Nothing so far has worked. And Mr. Rife
has not followed Ms. Llewellyn's recommendations either. And I'm sort of hoping that ....
8
TW: Well part of the problem is the families have just lost their minds in this case.
BL: And I can tell you that Mr. Leighton is taking big parts of the summer off.
JD: And I can also report that Mr. Leighton is working on a case of mine and he has availability.
CG: You Honor, if you 're inclined towards supervision I know Ms. Llewellyn does a good job. I
know that Judy Dier does the job. I know Don Leighton does the job. I have concerns about
Don Leighton's availability because he recently declined a case that I.was looking for help on
but that was as a GAL, not as a supervisor. But I'm perfectly happy if you're inclined to. that,
letting Ms. Llewellyn designate the supervisor and let her continue to designate the terms of the
visitation, which is exactly what the 11/01/05 order does. Visitation supervision designated by
her would be new.
TW: Yeah. I quite frankly ... given that it's three weeks short of trial and that things have just gone
nuclear in this case, I think that it makes sense for everybody's purpose to get things calmed
back down and get it on to a basis where there is some rational thought process that is going
forward here. Whether·... I hesitate also to have Ms. Llewellyn be acting in that capacity, not
because she's not capable or able, but I think that that puts a difficult situation on her. Judy Dier
or Don Leighton are both fine as far as the court is concerned. There's other people that do it as
well.
BL: Absolutely and I don't... she does 90% of the visitations there.
TW: So I would be less inclined to do it by name than somebody that you can arrange to make it
happen that's available.
BL: I just know that Don ... I just spoke with him ... And Don is, in fact it had occurred to me to ask
Don to do this case. And he's in one week and he's· gone the next week.
TW: Well, and you've got three weeks. So I don't know if he's here or he's not. I have no idea what
his schedule is.
BL: He's not here much this week, he was here last week.
TW: But visits need to recommence upon verification that he is signed up for DV treatment. If that's
already occurred, that verification can occur immediately and visits need to recommence, you
can get supervision set up and it's less quite frankly at this juncture an issue that the court is
necessarily finding that this is a long-term fix to the situation but rather a short-term gap until
trial. Number one. And number two, the court is absolutely finding that because of. the
advocacy ·involvement of your mother, she's no longer an appropriate supervisor. At least at this
juncture. So that being said, with regard to the order to show cause on contempt with regard to
the parenting plan, I think that the mother overstepped by suspending all visits contrary to the
9
direction of the Guardian Ad Litem. I think she was doing that on advice of counsel specifically
and I think that that provides a defense to contempt quite frankly, although questionable I
suppose advice.
TW: What I'm going to do is reserve make-up visits. to the trial court because I don't know if it's
supervised unpaid, I don't know if he can do that between now and then quite frankly.
CG: He can as far as ... he can take care of the finances if we have a supervisor.
TW: Then I don't have a panicular objection to it. Once the letter went out saying that they shall
recommence and they didn't recommence, from that timeframe forward count up the visits that
were missed and there should be make-ups at his expense. But I'm not making a finding of
contempt based on the fact that the v.-1fe was operating on advice of counsel. Okay?

Bridget,
My fall schedule for school is attached to this document. I have Intro to Algebra from
12:00 to 12:50 M-F. I have Anatomy and Physiology I from I :10 to 3:20 M, W & F.
Lastly, I have English Comp from I: I 0 to 3 :30 T & Th. This leaves my evenings free to
be with Lauren (I study at night and at school between classes) and this also allows me
the ability to work part-time as a phlebotomist in the mornings or on days I do not have
Lauren with me. I am currently still working on my resume to get a phlebotomy job and
I plan to consistently have my classes in the afternoons only. At least to the best that I
can. In the odd circumstance that something comes up, my Mom or my sister Lisa are
Lauren has been doing extraordinarily well at her Montessori School. She talks about her
"friends" all the time, and her favorite teacher Toni. She will freely tell you how she
plays outside with her friends, how she takes a nap and what she has to eat for lunch and
snack time. In picking her up or dropping her off, she always wants to take me oµ a
"tour" of her school and point out her favorite toys or show off her friends.
It was hard in the beginning to let Lauren go to daycare/Montessori. She had a!ways ·
spent her time with me or family members. But she has really blossomed from attending
there. I've learned a lot about the Montessori Method in my psych class, and I am
especially glad that I chose the school I did. I truly do not have to worry about her when I
am at school during the day. There has not been one day that I have picked Lauren up
that she has been upset or crying. I will watch her for a few minutes before she notices
me and she is always busy socializing with her friends and playing. Her teachers tell me
Some of my concerns:
I.) Andy and his Mother's attitude towards Lauren's school. Lauren's teacher has
told me on several occasions Andy will try to question her and some of the other
staff about me and Lauren. When dropping off Lauren one time he holding her
and told the teacher that she would start crying when he left he then asked them if
Lauren cries when her "Mother" leaves her. Now why would he want to know
this? One time when Andy was picking Lauren up he got there and she was
wearing a diaper. He demanded to know why she was in a diaper, insisting that
she was fully p9tty trained. He seemed very agitated by this and upset the
incidents like these the employees, when he tries to ask them anything, are to
direct him to the director of the school. Also, Wendy has made a few uncalled for
remarks that I just ignored. At the doctor's office when we were all there when
Lauren was sick, Wendy said "ugh, that daycare. Those two little boys and their
snotty noses all the time!" I asked Lauren's teacher about the boys (who are
twins) and they have allergies. Toni is a great teacher and keeps all the kids clean.
Then a bit later I made a remark about how Lauren needs to get used to using the
toilet there not just at home or at other family's members houses. Wendy said "I
don't blame Lauren for not using the bathroom there. I wouldn't." Again, this
2.) Since the supervised visitation has stopped, Lauren has come back home (in the
car) or at home with some really strange and inappropriate things that a 2 year old
just wouldn't say unless someone told them this or they heard it in a conversation.
She has said out of the blue at times, "Mommy you have no friends", "Mommy
you are lazy", "Mommy, you are a bad driver", "Mommy, you are mad at me".
Also I have heard in the car on the way back "I hate Grandma Carol". First of all,
Lauren never calls my Mom Grandma Carol but just "Grandma". Lauren is very
attached to my Mom, as she is my whole family. But lately, right after visitations
or after one of Lauren's overnight visits, Lauren will be very rude and aggressive
towards my Mom if my Mom tries to kiss her or play with her. Again, this is only
for several hours after the visitation with Andy has ended. I religiously kept notes
on this and I have those saved on my computer. I have notes on all the transfers.
Just like today's transfer. My Mom never gets out of the car if we go together to
get Lauren- I do. She's my daughter. It is always Wendy who gets out of the car
while Andy stays inside his truck. Today I took notice while Wendy was talking
to me that Andy was staring with a very nasty lookon his face towards my
Mother. It has been over a month since my Mom has actually gotten out of her car
during the exchanges. In fact she has hardly gone with me to the exchanges in the
last couple of months; I usually go by myself. She just goes as a witness when
she has time. I believe I do need a witness though - and will continue to have my
Mom come with me, or any other family member who can. She doesn't talk to
Andy or even look at him. It is Andy who calls my Mom when Lauren is sick and
when he dislocated her elbow. The previous time Lauren was sick (and I had
cancelled the visit) Wendy and Andy said that they were already on their way to
Lauren's school so they would stop by and see if Lauren was okay. They didn't
just stop by- they accepted my Mom's invitation to come into her home and see
Lauren. Of course Lauren just had a bug as all kids get - but Andy insisted on
taking her to the doctor. At the doctor's office - we all ended up being there
together in a small room. I had to drive from the U-District as I was still at my
externship. Andy was cracking jokes and doing silly things. Like he decided to
taker her underwear off as we were leaving to put a pull-up on her so she
wouldn't have an accident in the car. He held up her underwear for everyone to
see and said "hey look! Skidmarks!" No body laughed. It is not just a "guy thing"
to do that it was crude and embarrassing and way out ofline. If Lauren was older
she would probably have felt humiliated, embarrassed and ashamed. My Mom
was there both times.we had to take Lauren to the doctor during Lauren's
visitations with Andy and everyone seemed to be able to get along. This extreme
resentment (toxic is the word Don Layton used for it) towards my Mom is very
disturbing, unwarranted and frightening to me. Lauren also asks me all the time
(no matter what it is ... a sippy cup she's had for a long time or a small toy I have
picked up for her) "who bought this Mommy?" I i~ll always tell her Mommy did
as it is true and Lauren will always say back "no, Grandma bought it." These are
just very strange things. I can see her "pretending" and trying to say Daddy
bought it, but my Mother??? Lauren and I have also talked about where babies
,
"come from" when she plays in her baby mode. I explained that she came from
Mommy's tummy and that Mommy and Daddy were there when the doctors took
her out of Mommy's tummy. This became a constant conversation as she kept
asking if she could "get back in". I had to laugh and say no, she was too big now!
After a while, she started coming back from Andy and Wendy, and she would
want to talk about "the hospital" again, only this time she won't say"! came from
Mommy's tummy" but instead says "Daddy found me at the hospital!" So now,
whenever she wants to talk about it, she will tell me I'm wrong- that Daddy
found her at the hospital. You'll notice from everything I am writing in this letter
to you - that it really sounds like Andy is trying to alienate Lauren from me
instead of us co-parenting her. I don't talk bad about Andy around Lauren
whatsoever, nor does my family. It would only serve to hurt her; and thus
Kids want to love both their parents and not have to listen to any negativity or bad
words about the other parent. Jan and Marian warned me about not ever doing this
3.) There was an incident right before 4th of July where my Dad tried to return a book
to Andy. Andy made a hugely aggressive transfer out of it. I have that
office and constantly question me on school, work, Mike and Lisa ... why can't
my Dad return a book to Andy? If Andy truly believed it to not be his book, he
simply could have said no instead of"Maybe it's Jan's'\ "Why don't you get your
balls out of your wife's purse" etc. He just aggressively gets more and more upset
,•
with my parents for no reason. The last time we were in court after his motion
was denied, he walked past my Mom, Amy and myself sitting. on one of the
benches. He walked by and shoved a finger towards my Mom and said "Carol,
you need to get a fucking life". Both Amy and I heard this as well as my Mom.
We just ignored him. Losing a motion makes it okay for him to say such a thing
or act in that way? I can only imagine what is being said to and around Lauren
when she is with him. It's not my parents that have a problem; but it would seem
that Andy has certain unresolved issues ( I think Don Layton suggested he get
individual counseling, which I don't believe he is doing). Also regarding the last
motion which Andy lost he must have been very certain he would win. On a day
that I normally pick her up·from school she was very upset to see me. She said no,
Daddy is picking me up. She remembers every little detail told her at drop-off.
She was crying and very upset. He was certain he was going to win his motion
and that he would be picking her up that evening. That is horrible! His attitude
towards this seems to be selfish and egomaniacal - he put himself first and set
Lauren up to feel insecure. The school told me they heard Andy tell her that he
would be coming for her that day. I have to mention as well - a couple of days
before the motion when I picked Lauren up from Safeway, she said to me "I go
live with Daddy". This surprised me so I told her no, she lives with both Mommy
and Daddy. She said" I go live with Daddy. Daddy said so". This was the
4.) I am also upset because I believe Andy has Lauren sleeping in his bed with him.
Wendy told me this although she said Andy sleeps on the floor next to the bed. I
don't believe this and Lauren blurts out other wise. I told her a couple of weeks
ago when I dropped her off at school that Daddy was going to pick her up and she
was going to sleep at his house. She said "sleep with Daddy in big bed". I said
'
what about your crib Lauren, and she said she sleeps with Daddy in his big bed.
Right when Lauren was born, Andy and I had come to an agreement that we did
disruptive sleep, and sleeping alone helps teach children independence and
confidence. For the whole time Lauren has lived alone with me, she has either
slept in her crib or now, she sleeps in her "big girl bed" a twin size bed that she
has had for a month now and really enjoys. Even ifher crib was still here, she
during the night, she will come into my room and want to sleep with me. I take
her back to her bed. This has disrupted the continuity of her sleeping patterns and
is not good for her. Being almost 3 she is too old to be sleeping with Andy in his
bed. It is very inappropriate and disturbing. Recently in trying to get her to_go
back to her bed very early in the morning when she came to my room - she said
no, there are monsters in there. I turned on all the lights and we both looked
around her room. I told Lauren there were no such things as "monsters". She said
Daddy told her there were monsters. This is NOT funny and exactly the
5:) The transfers are starting to upset me. It is a long process when I am trying to get
Lauren back. Andy or Wendy won'tjust simply get her out of the truck and make
it a smooth transition for all; they let Lauren hang out of the sumoof of Andy's
truck, they will let her sit in the front seat and honk the horn, or Andy will put her
in the bed of his truck and let her run up and down while I am standing there
waiting. Don Layton or Judy Dyer never would have let that happen. Sometimes,
I am even left waiting at my car watching Andy run up and do"m with Lauren
inside one of those kids "car grocery carts". Of course because of this, Lauren is
having a great time and does not want to come back to me. When I drop Lauren
off to Andy and Wendy on Sundays, I get Lauren out of the car, kiss her and hand
her to Wendy and say "have fun Lauren, Daddy's here". I'm sure Wendy could
attest to that. Several times Wendy has had to tell Andy that I am waiting and that
Lauren needed to be handed over. One last thing ... Wendy constantly talks about
the time she spends with Lauren and the things they do. Wendy has all but
admitted (inadvertently) that she is ALWAYS around when Andy has visitation.
Andy willing and or capable of having Lauren for an extended period of time
6.) Lastly, I am concerned over Lauren's bowel movements when she is spending
extended periods of time with Andy. I have noticed for a very long time now that
she will have to have a bowel movement as soon as I get home with her. It is
consistent with her saying her "bottom hurts" and her "tummy hurts". She will
even do this if! take her to a restaurant after the exchange. She has gone
numerous times this way and will ·hide under the table and get very quiet. It is
almost as if she holds it when she is away, to the point where it hurts her. She
noticed Lauren having very many bowel movements when she is with them.
Simultaneously Wendy said "no" and Andy said "yes". Andy didn't speak up
again, Wendy did. She said once in a while, small little bowel movements like
maybe she was having trouble or was constipated. In Lauren's almost 3 years -I
have only seen her constipated once and that was when she had the flu when she
was much younger and became dehydrated. Bridget, you have my detailed notes
on Andy's strange (very strange) and peculiar bathroom habits (which Don
Layton even noticed) and it worries me that Lauren is "holding it" for such long
So with that said, I think Lauren is doing very well. At least when she is with me. I don't
know about the other side as there is no communication in any which way or form. She
has a wonderful school that she enjoys and is thriving and learning at it. My concerns are
bad mouthing the other parent, family members and parenting skills/techniques and
knowing what is proper and improper. As Lauren gets older some of what I believe is
going on could really damage her and affect her as she is growing. I find it disturbing that
even know he was going there, we were all told it was a parenting program with Tim
Tackles at Evergreen Manor) and yet all of these issues of parenting/bad mouthing are
still coming up, I am hopeful that the DV Dads and Respectful Parenting programs at
Family Services will help him with these issues. Despite coming from a broken home - I
want her to have every opportunity to grow and love all of her family members without
Please let me know if you have any questions. Also, if necessary, I'm sure the director of
the Montessori would give you a tour of Lauren's school with the appropriate
authorization.

1 3. JENNIFER LESOURD ASSUMES NEGATIVES
2 MY former wife colors everything she knows or suspects about me in the most
negative possible light. She ignores anything possibly favorable. For example, she
3 complains that I have not completed a domestic violence perpetrator's treatment
program. She ignores that I have one meeting left. I complete at the beginning of
4 September. She complains that I have not "managed" to complete a course, but
does not discuss that I have attended more than twice the requisite number of
5 classes. She ignores that my reports are consistently positive 1 • Ms. Llewellyn has
reported to the court the reasons Evergreen Manor declines to communicate about
6 me with Ms. LeSourd and Ms. Dyer. My former wife proceeds to write about how
Evergreen Manor is not complying with the Washington Administrative Code, but
7 then she never quotes the statute or rule she thinks is being violated. When I
commenced there, I signed releases authorizing communication with Jennifer
8 Lesourd and Ms. Dyer, among others. But I have not asked them to communicate
or refrain from communication with Ms. Lesourd and Ms. Dyer. In fact, last April I did
9 request that Evergreen Manor communicate directly with Family services.
Evergreen Manor declined. I do not make decisions for Evergreen Manor.
10
MY former wife colors what she knows or suspects of Bridget Llewellyn in the
11 most negative possible light. Bridget Llewellyn, Judy Dyer and Don Layton all concur
that I am an excellent father and have excellent parenting skills. They reached their
12 conclusions based upon first hand observations. She hired an MSW to review Bridget
Llewellyn's file. Interestingly, that MSW did not list that she had spoken to Ms.
13 Llewellyn.
14 In August, knowing that my time with Evergreen Manor is nearly completed,
I called Mark Adams of Family services for the specific purpose of again enrolling in
15 that program. Mr. Adams has not returned my calls. Perhaps vacations and the like
have delayed him. 1 intend to resume contact with him and enroll in the DV Dads
16 and Respectful Parenting classes.
17 MY former wife and I have no direct communication. My former wife reaches
·udgments that my behavior has been negative and destructive. She refers to
18 "co parenting" but so long as she declines to communicate constructively we will just
have more of the same.
19
4. VERBIAGE
20
Ms. LeSourd recounts statements she attributes to our daughter. · 1 could
21 respond in kind, but I decline to do so. If I recounted all the things that our
daughter says then drew conclusions from those statements, all I would accomplish
22 is to assure that our daughter bears the emotional burden of the parents'
disagreements. Think how petty and ridiculous this could get! Most such comments
23 are the sorts of things that should be allowed to pass off and be forgotten. If there
is a specific concern, it could be brought up with Bridget Llewellyn or Don Layton.

Page 2 425 259-4147 FAX 259 7081
1 If one of them files a declaration about what Lauren says, I will deal with the
statements at that time.
2
One conclusion 1can draw is that if Ms. Lesourd would communicate with me
3 about our daughter, even by email, we might well be able to get on the same page
from time to time. Ms. LeSourd might be less concerned about what I say if she had
4 some idea what I actually do say. At the exchanges of our daughter I generally stay
in my vehicle and have no interaction with her. The exceptions have been when
5 Lauren and I happened to get there first and we might be playing with a grocery
cart or some similar activity. My decision to minimize direct communication at the
6 exchange was encouraged by Ms. Llewellyn and Mr. Layton to avoid argumentation
or conflict at the exchanges.
7
At the Montessori 1have a friendly relationship with the staff. When Lauren
8 was new to that school I was told more than once about the difference between
Lauren's responses to each of her parents. When the Montessori staff wants to talk
9 to me about my daughter I am not going to cut off the conversation. It is a pity that
Ms. Lesourd wants to cast these conversations in a negative light.
10
5. CONFLICT
11
Ms. LeSourd and her parents have come out of court angry. Her parents have
12 both initiated discussions with me using "salty" language, to which I have responded
in kind. It may not speak well of any of the participants in these dust-ups, but it
13 hardly constitutes some kind of abuse. The last time we were at court Ms. LeSourd
herself had some angry words for me which she delivered in an angry voice and her
14 mother made a point of walking directly up to me, so her face was within just
several inches of mine to be sure that I could see her angry expression.
15
The conflict has extended to the exchanges. On July 3 I arrived at the
16 exchange point. Jennifer LeSourd was present but stayed in her car, which I thought
unusual. soon her parents arrived in his truck. Jennifer Lesourd's father, Steve
17 Holland, did approached me with a book in his hand, loudly saying something about
it being something of mine they found around the house. At a glance I could see
18 that it was a book glorifying Adolph Hitler and the Third Reich. It was not mine. I
have never had interest in such books. In an exchange of unpleasantries I informed
19 him of that. That day 1had had outpatient surgery to excise two abcesses low on my
pine. I had no desire to assume a fighting stance, but I can assure the court that I
20 had no ability to do so at the time. I had a very sore posterior.
21 6. DR. VISIT
22 There have been two occasions when I have taken Lauren to a doctor, June
14 and June 28. On both occasions there were adults who were not comfortable
23 together all crowded into the examination room. There was some nervous humor
all round. None of it was inappropriate. on the second occasion I did change
24 Lauren's underwear for a new pull-up. There was no statement about "skid marks."
1made no such statement and neither did anyone else. It is simple fiction.

1 7. CHILD CARE COSTS
2 I have paid my share of child care costs. our parenting plan requires me to
contribute to work related child care costs. My former wife enrolled in an
3 educational program and asked me to contribute to child care costs, partly to her
mother and partly to Clearview Montessori. Because this was educational, not work,
4 related child care, 1did not think this was covered by the order. To resolve the issue
we arbitrated it before commissioner Slusher. He came out in the middle. He
5 directed payment for the amount attributed to Ms. Lesourd's mother, and made
findings that would require me to pay for other months if she was actually
6 participating in her educational program. Ms. Lesourd has not provided any
documentation that she incurred any work or educational related child care cost in
7 the months of April or May. In fact, her arbitration materials were clear that there
were no such costs in those months. Accordingly, there is no payment for me to
8 make.
9 MY former wife does not want to resolve the issue: She wants to complain.
She claims something !unstated> is owing to her and provides no documentation or
10 information from which a person could agree or disagree with her. If I owe, I will
pay my share. But until she communicates about the costs incurred so I can agree
11 or disagree, there is simply no payment to make.
12 As to the Montessori costs in June, July and August, I have paid my share
directly to the Montessori. She has nothing to complain about.
13
8. BAR ASSOCIATION ETHICAL COMPLAINTS
14
1 did file a grievance against Ms. over and also against Mr. Primont. The
15 grievances are pending before a review committee at the Bar. To my knowledge
they are not dismissed.
16
ELC 2.12 2 provides that Ms. over may not bring any action against me for
17 damages based upon filing a grievance with the Bar Association. Ms. over attempts
to avoid this rule by having her client make the same identical request in the divorce
18 file. It is not a very subtle ruse.
22 1 - - - - - - - - - - -
2
23 ELC 2.12(b): Communications to the Association, Board of Governors,
Disciplinary Board, review committee, hearing officer or panel, disciplinary counsel,
24 adjunct investigative counsel, Association staff, or any other individual acting under
authority of these rules, are absolutely privileged, and no lawsuit predicated thereon
25 may be instituted against any grievant, witness, or other person providing information.

1 3.5, 8.1 and 8.4. I held my peace until after the divorce was settled on November 7,
2006. With the divorce resolved, I sought counsel on the RPC issues, ultimately
2 retaining Leland G. Ripley, formerly Chief Disciplinary counsel for the Washington
state Bar Association. I never did hire an investigator or similar person. I did review
3 and obtain copies of public records.
4 1 am not providing the factual details of Ms. Dyer's misconduct because I
doubt that they have much relevance to the parenting issues in this case. If the
5 court wants to investigate the contents of the WSBA grievance against Ms. Dyer, that
is fine with me. Ms. Dyer and 1can file copies of every single document in that file.

and
10 DECLARATION OF ANDREW RIFE
Jennifer Rae Rife
11 Respondent.
12 I, ANDREW RIFE, declare under penalty of perjury of the laws of the State of Washington,
that the following is true and correct.
I am the former husband of Jennifer LeSourd, and the father of Lauren Rife, who is the
subject of the parenting plan in this matter. I make this declaration to support my motion
for reconsideration.
I am only asking the court to continue to reserve issues that were previously reserved which
were not addressed in the pleadings or the rulings on September 11, 2007. Those issues
were reserved pending case manager's recommendation under the November 7, 2006
parenting plan. The specific language of the September 11, 2007 order might appear to
have decided those issues even though they were not before the court for decision.
The court ruled on September 11, 2007 concerning residential schedule. It established a
residential schedule of Tuesday and Thursday afternoons and alternating weekends
(Saturday 10 a.m. through Monday morning return at Montessori). The court did not rule
on residential time at holidays (especially Thanksgiving and Christmas-New year time), did
not rule upon summer residential schedule, and did not rule upon vacations. Under the
November 7, 2007 these issues are reserved for Ms. Llewellyn's later recommendation. The
court should explicitly continue those items as being reserved for later agreement or
decision following Ms. Llewellyn's recommendation.

2 I want to be sure the court understands what I am not requesting. The court made a
specific ruling for the residential schedule. The court ruled that it would make future
3 changes and Ms. Llewellyn would not have authority to make such changes. The court
declined my invitation to change decision making and dispute resolution. I am not asking
4 the court to revisit those issues. I am only asking the court to explicitly reserve the issues
which were not mentioned in argument of counsel and not mentioned in the court's ruling.
s The language of the order is sufficiently broad to create an erroneous impression in the
event of future hearings.
6
Paragraphs 3.2 through 3.6 should be explicitly not changed by the court's order.

Jennifer Rae Rife should be held in contempt for the following reasons:
11
Failure to comply with the parenting plan as follows:
12
A. The October 24, 2013 parenting plan provides in part VI (page 10)
13
"-tEach parent will get the child to her practices and games
14 during their residential time."
15 Jennifer Mehaddi has refused to comply with this provision of the parenting
16 plan. She intentionally refused to get Lauren to her practices and games occurring
17 during her residential time on March 14, March 16, April 14, April 16, April 21 and
18 pril 28.
20 "Disputes between the parties, other than child support disputes, shall be

22

1 The Temporary Parenting Plan of October 24, 2013 was violated in the
2 following manner:
3 Background:
1 ·ustify a modification of the parenting plan. But I did not understand why her threat
2 was against our daughter and the sport she loves.
3 L.auren's Practices and Games
4 I filed the petition for modification October 2, 2013. On October 24, 2013 the
5 court entered a temporary parenting plan. The Commissioner did not rule on
6 anything about transportation to sports events. But in negotiation of details in the
7 hallway Jennifer Mehaddi was arguing that she should transport our daughter for
8 the practices and games occurring during the time the child resides with her, rather
9 han having me provide this service. She and her attorney were quite insistent that
10 she could do the transportation and would do so. I was concerned that she would
11 actually get Lauren to the games and practices as she had previously been unable
12 to do so, due to her work schedules or the expense of transportation.
13 The solution was to include a provision in the court's temporary parenting
14 plan requiring each parent to get Lauren to her games and practices during our
15 respective residential times.
16 Since this action was filed Jennifer Mehaddi wrote that she considered the
17 soccer to be "too much" for our child. I had not noticed any difficulty, so I responded
18 by saying so, and providing some of Lauren's school work in which she expressed
19 her enthusiasm for soccer.
20 Lauren played indoor soccer in January and February 2013. Though indoor
21 is separate from Washington Rush, on October 22, 2013 the Rush coach wrote
22 about the upcoming indoor games4 • In then winter when the weather is worst there

1 is indoor soccer. I responded that Lauren would want to participate 5. Jennifer
2 Mehaddi informed him Lauren would not participate6 • Jennifer then announced that
3 I had decided she would participate without her agreement, therefore as Lauren's
4 "primary parent" she had decided Lauren would not be playing indoor soccer7 •
5 At the time I was trying to find a way to reduce tensions between Jennifer and
6 me, so she and I talked about the subject. In the end, I agreed that Lauren would
7 not play indoor last winter, though she did play in the six games she wanted to
8 during the time she was with me. Rush resumed in late January.
9 March 10, 2014 the coach sent an emai18 about the practices being Mondays
10 and Wednesdays for the remainder of March and April. Practices would be 5:30 to
11 7:00 p.m. on March 10, 12, 17, 19, 24, 26 and 31, April 2, 7, 9, 14, 16, 21, 23, 28
12 and 30. Jennifer works at PolyClinic at Northgate until 7:00 p.m. on Wednesdays.
13 State Cup was scheduled for March 16 and March 23 in Olympia. Jennifer's
14 response was to blame me for the schedule set by the league9 .

22 Attachment 9. Jennifer misstates the facts. I do take Lauren skiing. I did not
ell her she could be on a ski team. She asked to be on a team and I told her she had a
23 lot of learning to do. Lauren's academics and health were not suffering. Jennifer refers
to a "consistent cold and cough" but no such health problem existed. Jennifer asked
24
me to not register her for anything until after mediation. Then Jennifer attended a
25 mediation session, but did not mediate.

1 Jennifer Mehaddi's next complaint was that Lauren was too tired and her
2 school work was suffering as a result of the soccer. She also complained that
3 Lauren has Obstructive Airway Disease which is a very mild form of childhood
4 asthma. Again, I had not noticed any such problem, so I asked the classroom
5 teacher and the team coach who both responded that Lauren is doing fine, has
6 plenty of energy and enthusiasm. I scheduled an examination by Lauren's
7 pediatrician to verify whether there might be a medical reason to limit the soccer
8 participation. The doctor did not find such a reason and also commented that
9 soccer is one of the best forms of exercise for people with asthma 10 • Jennifer
10 agreed to attend the doctor's appointment, but added that Lauren is "so tired all the
11 time. 11 "
12 I wanted to be sure that I was not missing something about Lauren. If she
13 really was tired all the time, or had a persistent cough I had not noticed or if there
14 was some other problem I would want to do whatever might be necessary to
15 remedy the problem. So I also sent emails to the classroom teacher, Mrs.

21 Attachment 10. I was concerned about a multiple subjects. I was and I
continue to be happy to mediate our differences, and I told Jennifer I was starting the
22 mediation process. Another subject was that continuing Lauren's participation in Rush
requires renewing the registration, so I would handle the registration to be sure the
23 opportunity would not be lost. Third was the health claim so I scheduled a medical
24 checkup for Jennifer's next day off, March 13, 2014.

1 Houghton 12 , and to the two coaches, Rich Hansen 13 and Josten Geralde14 • Jennifer
2 and I attended Lauren's physical examination. The doctor did find slight asthma,
3 but recommended sports and being active. She said that soccer is one of the best
4 activities for a child with asthma. She declined to address Jennifer's questions
5 about whether Lauren needed a break from soccer.
6 March 16 Contempt
7 On March 13, 2014 Lauren's Rush coach, Rich Hansen sent Jennifer
8 Mehaddi an email 15 informing her that the State Cup competition would occur on
9 the next two Sundays, March 16 and March 23.
10 The next morning, March 14, 2014 Jennifer Mehaddi responded that Lauren
11 ould not be at the games on March 16 because " ...this Sunday we have family
12 plans and Lauren will not be able to make the state cup in Olympia .. 16" Jennifer
13 Mehaddi sent me a copy of the two emails. Thinking that the location (in Olympia)
14 might be the reason for Lauren not participating, I volunteered to take Lauren to her.
15 My offer was refused. Lauren spent Saturday night at a sleep-over at her cousins'
16 home in Everett.

1 March 22, 2014 Jennifer Mehaddi, again supportive, sent a text message17
2 "Tell Lauren I said good luck at her game and that I'm thinking about her."
3 Monday, March 31, 2014, Lauren attended practice even though it was on
4 her mother's residential day.
5 April 16 Contempt
6 On Wednesday, April 918 coach Josten Garalde sent an email that for the
7 remainder of April the practices would be on Mondays and Wednesdays for the rest
8 of April. (April 14, 16, 21, 23, 28 and 30).
9 Jennifer Mehaddi responded the same day that "Lauren will not be at practice
10 next week. A decision regarding soccer will be made at the end of the month. Mr.
11 Rife is aware of this as I have not agreed to further practices/games at this point."
12 On Wednesday April 16 I sent an email 19 to Jennifer Mehaddi that there was
13 a practice at 5:30. I knew that Wednesday is her day to work until 7:00, so I
14 reminded her:
15 Also, the parenting plan also requires each parent to get
Lauren to her games and practices. She has a practice this
16 evening at 5:30 at Kasch Park. If there is a need to get Lauren
to practice, before it commences, I am happy to pick her up from
17 wherever she is and get there."

19 Soccer for the season is over. She will not be going to
practice. See you at mediation.

17 mediated. Jennifer Mehaddi refused to mediate in good faith.
18 In. late March I wrote to.Jennifer Mehaddi that we had. a dispute about soccer.
19 The parenting plan requires mediation, so we needed to mediate it. Stie appeared
20 o nave unilaterally decided to remove Lauren from soccer-. Removing her would
21 necessarily· be a joint decision. I did not expect her to accept mediation because
22 st:ie had refused to mediate twiee before, To my surprise she agreed to mediation.

1 At the commencement of mediation Jennifer said that soccer was "too much."
2 In response to questions she said that soccer was taking up too much family time,
3 that she was getting home too late and she was too tired.
4 I pointed out that Lauren's pediatrician did not find a health problem and
5 specifically recommended soccer. Then she complained that after soccer Lauren is
6 oo tired to do her homework. I responded that her teacher reports she is doing well
7 academically and that Lauren has time to do her homework between the release
8 rom school in the afternoon and when soccer practice starts. That is when she
9 does her homework when she is with me, and she could do the same when with
10 Jennifer. I do not know when she does homework at her mother's but doing it early
11 might help.
12 I explained that I had requested mediation because we had agreed to
13 Lauren's participation in Rush soccer and there was no agreement between
14 Jennifer and me to withdraw her. Jennifer's response was to angrily state that there
15 ill not be joint decision making after trial, she has decided that Lauren will no
16 longer be in Rush soccer and that she has already signed her up for a different
17 soccer program in Snohomish. I then said that the result of the trial next July is not
18 yet known, and we need to comply with the parenting plan we have. Lauren is still
19 registered with Washington Rush, and her team is still practicing. Jennifer
20 expressed her anger that I took her to practice on April 23.
21 We took a break. After the break, I tried to suggest that I can pick Lauren up
22 rom school on her activity days and get her to soccer, and deliver her to Jennifer
23 Mehaddi's afterward, as I did for three years. She was not willing to consider it and
24 she was not willing to discuss it. I said that Lauren loves this sport, that she

1 participates at an advanced level. I also said that if.we are both looking for solutions
2 e cari, find one that allows Lauren to continue. I was intending to discuss adjusting
3 he residential schedule so that Lauren would be with me on soccer days and with
4 Jennifer on non-soccer cjays. It might not be a. complete solution but could have
5 been a partial solution.
6 Instead of discussing possible solutic;ms·thatmight facilitate Lauren's soccer
7' participation while preserving residential time with her mother, .Jennifer just sat still
8 and .speechless. Her face became red.and got· redder .. One of the mediators asked
9 her if she wanted to continue the mediation process. She said "No" and she got up
10 and walked out.
11 Jennifer Mehaddi should be found in contempt for her refusal to mediate in
12 good faith. I tried to emphasize that we need to comply with the parenting plan we·
13 t:iave, and that we should look for solutions to our present impasse. She did not
14- make one suggestion looking for middle ground. Her position was that Lauren will
15 not participate at !'Ill, rega_rdless whether Lauren is with Jennifer or with me. Period.
16 Jennifer Mehaddi appeared at Volunteers of America. She did nothing to mediate.

Hi Team, we have signed up for the next indoor session, starting weekend of NOV
9th. Indoor is NOT mandatory by no means. If you have other plans during our down
time, great.
Unfortunatly, indoor starts during outdoor play. Like I did last season, I will work with
the indoor people and schedule around our outdoor games. We will NOT play indoor
before an outdoor game. Although we may go straight from outdoor to indoor depends
on schedule.
Azul plays on the Sat the 9th and 16th, and Nero plays on Sat the 9th and 23rd.
Those are the indoor dates I will adjust.
Schedules for indoor usually don't come out until a week before if that.
If you DO NOT plan on playing, please let me know so we can remove you from the
roster.

Hi riqh, this. is Jennifer Lauren~s-mom. She will not be playing indoor. Her dad· is
already aware. Thanks!

Attachment 7
I am Lauren's primary parent, and I just got your email today. I was not aware of any
indoor soccer coming up prior to this or Andy making arrangements without my
knowledge. Lauren loves her team and playing, however there are things I want to be
able to do with her with the holidays coming up and some "down time" would be nice
since she plays mostly year round. Sorry to have to tell you all this, but he made that
decision without my knowledge or consent. So she will not be playing indoor soccer.
Hope this clarifies everything.
Thanks,
Jennifer

State Cup will be 2 games this Sunday 3/16 and 2 games 3/23 in Olympia. I'll send out
more details to everybody once we confinn the details.
Practices should stay the same from March-April, Mondays and Wednesdays,
5:30-7pm. Tryouts are in early May.
Attachment 8
Attachment 9
You said that practice was going down to one day a week. Last week was supposed
to be her last game, but she has a game on Saturday in Snohomish and then 2 games
on Sunday in Olympia? Then 2 practices during the week, and two more games the
following sunday in Olympia again, when you take her skiing on the days she isn't
playing soccer? What happened to academics and her health coming first? Loi, I can
hear her coughing right now. Don't tell me a consistent cold and cough is normal for
months in a row. A doctor will never agree with that. This is TOO much for her. Your
pushing her too hard. If she's going to ski in the winter and be on a TEAM for skiing like
you told her, then she needs to not play select soccer for the winter. She needs a break
at some point. I fully agree with being athletic but this is not right. So like I said, please
do not register her for anything at this point until we can mediate something that is best
for Lauren.
Attachment 9
Attachment 1b
Jenn·,
I filled out the application form fa~ mecliation and faxed it back to them .. You should
be getting.something ih the. mail shortly.
Also, to.address some ofyolir health concerns, I have scheduled a well child check
up with Dr. Hastings at the Silver Lake Everett .Clinic on Tht,jrsday at 3:30. Dr. Lester is
not availal;>le on Thursdays but wanted to schec:lule sorrtething on a day you were
available. Hopefully that works~ :
Attachment 1 o
Attachment 11
Yes, a doctor's appointment is good. Although I don't see why you refer to it only as
"my health concerns" for Lauren. You are aware she has Reactive Airway Disease and
when she gets ill her illness is exacerbated by this? That is why it is unfair to compare
her "colds" to people you work with and other teammates or school peers. Their health
isn't my concern, just Lauren's. We can mediate Andy as we should per the parenting
plan, but I am holding firm that playing ALL year round soccer with added tournaments,
jamborees and state cups not to mention LATE night practices is too much for a young
9 year old. She is so tired all the time. Unless you are willing to compromise on the
soccer and how much she does then we will end up in court over this. Unfortunately.
She is 9 years old. Other parents may think this schedule is okay but I don't care about
that. I think she is too young and after this whole year of being on a team and not rec or
academy I can see it is too much.
I also want to address with the doctor other concerns that can be discussed with
Lauren outside of the exam room so my mom will come to sit out in the lobby.
Attachment 11
Attachment 12
Mrs. Houghton,
Have you noticed Lauren being excessively tired and having more colds and sniffles
than most kids in her class? Does she appear to have a lack of energy and is she able
to maintain focus? I want to make sure that her grades aren't slipping.

Attachment 12
Attachment 13
Rich,
Have you noticed Lauren being often sick and excessively tired at practices or
games lately?
I have not noticed a decline in her play or skill level. All girls have had their bout with
sickness over the season, but not excessive.
Rich
Attachment 13
Attachment 14
Could you tell me if you have notice Lauren being more tired and less enthusiastic
at practices than the other girls?
Hi Andrew, I haven't noticed anything. She is always energetic and is a ton of fun
coaching with her great attitude at trainings and games. Tell her to keep up the
awesome work!

Attachment 15
Hi Jennifer, the Select season starts every year in May with try-outs for 2014-2015
season, after try-outs players are placed on a team. Season runs from May to April,
with time off during periods of the year.
After league season is over, (Fall and Spring) teams start to prepare for State Cup,
which runs from Mar to mid April, depending on how you do, depends on how long you
practice. Azul's is the next two Sunday's with two games each day. After State Cup,
there will be time off, then teams still get together for practice leading up to try-outs, to
keep the players active and getting touches on the ball.
Attachment 15
Attachment 16
Thank you for the information Rich. As Josten recently said Lauren is really learning
and enjoys playing soccer with Rush. Very proud of her! Without causing any problems
or going in to private issues, I just wanted to let you know as you probably already
know ... Andy and I are having some differences of opinion on how much soccer Lauren
plays during the year. I would like her to explore different sports or activities for a
season or two. It is not against the Rush team or coaches at all. Lauren is very
comfortable and enjoys both you and Josten as coaches.
However, this Sunday we have family plans and Lauren will not be able to make the
state cup in Olympia. She will be at the game in Snohomish on Saturday and at the
state cup the following weekend.
Thanks again,
Jennifer Mehaddi

We will start training next week, Mondays 4-5:30pm and Wednesdays 5:30-7pm at Kasch for the
rest of April.
If you're free this Saturday, my GU14's have a State Cup game 4:30pm Kasch Park if anybody
wanted to come out and support the team. We have to win against Northwest Nationals to advance.
Also, I wanted to encourage the girts to watch any soccer they can. We live in the information
age and have access directly to watch some great matches such as Champions League, Premiere
League and the World Cup coming up this summer in Brazil.
I remember at 14 years old, we had the World Cup in the States and it was the first time I really
started watching soccer, learning about different styles of play and studying some of my favorite
players. I love the fluidity and creativity of the Brazilian Samba players and it inspired to practice on
my own.
Watching the game is apart of a young soccer players education. Studying it, and imitating
moves of high level professional players Is what kids do around the world. I love the Sounders but I
wanna encourage the girts to see and know whafs out there as well.
Below is a true story video about a group of kids starting a football team in Thailand that lives on
a village on top of the water. Pretty amazing stuff. The second link gives highlights and updates on
the latest pro leagues and players around. Enjoy!

Hi Josten,
I wanted to let you know that Lauren will not be at practice next week. A decision regarding soccer
will be made at the end of the month. Mr. Rife is aware of this as I have not agreed to further
practices/games at this point.
Thanks,

1 2 The October 24, 2013 parenting plan establishes decision making in part 4.3:
5 Background:
6 At the time the March 25, 2011 parenting plan was entered, Jennifer worked at
7 Everett Clinic. I would get our daughter Lauren Rife from school and take care of her until
8 her mother got home from work, then deliver her to Jennifer's home. Jennifer worked late
9 one day per week. We had our daughter Lauren spend these late day hours nights with
10 me. The same pattern persisted when she went to work at Washington Urology in
11 February 2012. Jennifer was unemployed most of the summer of 2013, but the same
12 pattern of time with me persisted. In August 2013 she found work at Swedish Medical
13 Group's Birth and Family Clinic in Edmonds. She worked Monday, Tuesday, Thursday
14 Friday, with occasional Wednesday or Saturday time. Thursday was her late day. Initially,
18 spending significantly more time with me than she had previously. March 25, 2011 a new
19 agreed parenting plan was entered. This parenting plan documented Lauren's increased
20 ·me with me. Nonetheless, her time with me continued to increase. Lauren had
21 previously been at a Montessori. There is a first right of refusal provision because each of
22 us preferred parental care over any alternative such as a daycare center or babysitter.
23 Before this action was filed in October 2013 the pattern of parenting we had
24 developed between us was that we both were ready to change the days Lauren was in one

1 home or the other based on consideration of Jennifer's work schedule or Lauren's school
2 and activities and whatever else might be going on. We both knew we were actually
3 ollowing a schedule that differed from the written parenting plan. Neither of us was
4 particularly concerned at that time about the first right of refusal language found in part VI
5 of the parenting plan. We never had need to discuss it.
6 On October 24, 2013 the Commissioner entered a temporary parenting plan. That
7 order preserves most of the March 25, 2011 parenting plan, including Part VI, which
8 establishes a right of first refusal when more than 4 hours of child care is required.
9 Upon entry of this order Jennifer Mehaddi began having her mother, Carol Holland,
10 interfere with the established pattern of parenting. Jennifer was clear that she would not
11 allow any time for Lauren to be with me in excess of the specific written terms of the court's
12 orders. That forced me to again read the orders to review what was in them. This is when
15 schedule. She has deprived Lauren of time she should have been spending with me.
18 Between March 25, 2011 and October 24, 2013 I continued to frequently have time
19 ith Lauren when her mother was working. Marginally observed holidays like Columbus
20 Day and Veterans Day were examples. I would also have Lauren with me in afternoons
21 after school and I would provide transportation to and from Lauren's activities. She and I
22 did not talk about it particularly in the sense of deciding if a particular part of the parenting
23 plan required me to have this involvement, nor whether Jennifer had to facilitate that
24 involvement. It was just what we did. The actual time I was spending with Lauren

1 expanded over time to the point that Lauren was with me significantly more than she was
2 ith Jennifer.
3 When the court's order of October 24, 2013 was entered, Jennifer Mehaddi
4 immediately began trying to restrict Lauren's time and activity with me. Her mother, Carol
5 Holland, had provided some child care and some transportation previously, but suddenly
6 her mother's involvement multiplied, as part of an effort to minimize my involvement. Carol
7 Holland has been confrontational about trying to take Lauren during time she is scheduled
8 o be with me. Jennifer Mehaddi's communications have been confrontational and
10 The March 25, 2011 parenting plan provides in part VI (page 11)
11 "The Father and Mother shall have first riclit of refusal if more
than four (4) hours of child care is required."
12
This portion of the March 25, 2011 parenting plan remains in effect because
13
the October 24, 2013 temporary parenting plan provides in part VI (page 10):
14
"Except as modified by this order all provisions of the
15 3/25/2011 order remain in effect."
16 At the time this modification action was filed, October 2, 2013, Jennifer Mehaddi

19 Mehaddi, which included the time clock information for her, day by day. These records
20 reveal that there were many days when the first right of refusal found in Part VI of the
21 parenting plan of September 25, 2011 required Lauren to be with me.

4 I had Lauren with me when she was under the weather several times over the
5 previous few years. Sometimes it happened to be on time that Lauren was scheduled to
6 be with me, other times it happened to be time I could take care of her while Jennifer was
7 atwork.
8 I told her that she need not take the day off, because. and I could provide care for
9 Lauren during the Monday holiday and that I would be happy to pick Lauren up at 6:45 to
10 7:00 the next morning as Jennifer left for work, as I had done many times before. Her
11 response was to tell me that the right of first refusal no longer existed under the temporary
12 parenting plan. I disagreed, and I referred her to the October 24, 2013 parenting plan
13 ich preserved the March 25, 2011 parenting plan's first right of refusal language.

15 November 11. She clocked in at 7:25 a.m .. and clocked out for lunch at 12:43 p.m .. 5.3
16 hours. She clocked in after lunch at 1:45 p.m. and clocked out at 5:23 p.m .. 3.63 hours.
18 Lauren was not sick on November 11, 2013. She spent the day with Carol Holland,
19 not with Jennifer. She should have spent it with me. She would have spent it with me if
21 In an email on November 26, 2013 Jennifer Mehaddi recognized that the first right
23 ...This 4 hour first right of refusal makes everything complicated for everyone
and it needs to go away in the final parenting plan. Lauren is too old for it. In

8 5:00 p.m. Carol Holland took Lauren to Swedish Edmonds where Jennifer was then
9 orking. She was seen by Dr. Fuhrman, the doctor Jennifer worked for'. He saw Lauren.
1O Jennifer told me that Lauren had a sore throat and ear pain, but the doctor's notes do not
11
confirm any portion of her claim. The doctor's notes show that her pulse and temperature
12
ere normal, and no diagnosis was made.
13
Lauren had not been sick at all. The time she spent with Carol Holland should have
14
15 been spent at school, and I should have picked her up at the end of the school day and
16 spent the time with her until her mother got home. If she was too sick to go to school, she
17 should have been home with me, and I would have taken her to Dr. Hastir1gs. Le J t~ r< (
18
I had recess duty the next day, Wednesday, December 11, 2013. Lauren was
19
playing happily. She was not at all sick. In fact, she was energetic as ever.

7 On April 9 Jennifer simply Mehaddi made plans during the Wednesday afternoon
8 ime Lauren was scheduled to be with me. I questioned her, and she responded that "the
9 hour rule" does not count. I did not want to have a conflict with Carol Holland in front
10 of Lauren. Also, thinking it was a one-time thing I allowed Carol Holland to take Lauren
11
hat afternoon. Lauren spent no time with me after school. Jennifer worked until she
12
clocked out at 7:45 p.m. She would not have been able to get home to be with Lauren until
13
. at least a half hour later. The time should have been spent with me.
14
16 On April 16 the same thing was done again. Jennifer again claimed the 4 hour rule
17 does not apply. Again I allowed Carol Holland to take Lauren rather than have a
18
confrontation in front of Lauren.
19
Thereafter we received discovery from Polyclinic showing the late hours on
20
ednesday are scheduled.

Subject: Re: Lauren
Today easier on my mom. She still works. Utilizing this 4 hour rule is ridiculous and
everyone agrees and it's not fair to Lauren. She's a person - not ownership Andy. Do as
you want and take time away from me. This 4 hour rule won't last long.
Always last minute and planned. My mom was going to bring her to my work to
have lunch with me and meet my co workers.
I shouldn't have to answer your questions.on my daywith her - but she gets off
school early and my lunch is at·3pm today. So therefor the 4 hour rule doesn't count.
My mom ..will get her.
That's not child care. I will be picking her up at 1;45pm. I let it go last week. I have since
confirmed with my attorney that a lunch break does not qualify as child care. Therefore,
I will be exercising my right of first right of refusal. If you find yourself getting off of work
early, let me know and I will bring Lauren to you.

therefor the 4 hour rule does not apply.

I have a couple of counselors names at the Everett clinic. Jeanne Paik was one of
them and Stephanie garrison was the other. I called the clinic this morning to see which
one was accepting new patients. Jeanne Paik is and Stephanie Garrison is not. Both of
them came highly recommended.
Since I have not heard from Andy from my last email, I have scheduled Lauren to
see Ms. Paik at The Everett Clinic behavioral health in mill creek at 2pm on Thursday
the 29th of this month. Most places are extremely booked or not taking new patients.
I've heard good things about Ms. Paik especially in regards to children. I hope this will
be a good fit for Lauren. I had the scheduler make a note that the therapist will need to
talk to each Andy and I separately to get a brief run down on what is going on and what
Lauren is going through and dealing with.
Thanks,
Jennifer

I will fill out the paperwork and you can take care if the insurance portion. You will be
reimbursed out of network. If there is a portion I am responsible for than I expect a bill
showing what I owe per the current parenting plan.
Hi Jennifer,
I am glad that we were able to talk earlier and set up an appointment for your
daughter for 10:00 AM Thursday, 5/29/14, in Marysville. I want to make sure that you
have all the info to my office there and I find it helpful to have clients fill out my intake
forms prior to the session, so I've attached them for you to fill out.
My office is located downstairs, so you will want to follow the ramp to the back of
the house and enter the door in the back to go downstairs to the waiting room.
I look forward to meeting with you and being of help to your daughter.
Take care,
Kerry

12 I have not intentionally failed to get Lauren to soccer practice. Contrary to Andy's claims,
IJ am very supportive of Lauren's soccer playing. Soccer has become n huge issue over the past fe\\

months, in part because I cannot get any clear communication from anyone including Andy or ti
IS
Rush soccer coaches and staff. It was my nnderstwtding that the soccer season had ended. Laure
16
17 had her last soccer game und her end of the season pruty in March. Th.is is confirmed in an emuil

that in select level soccer, the season is never really over. I had no idea that is how it worked when

plans for Lauren to have a sleepover with her cousins. She was very excited about it and I believ
12 that the soccer season was over. I should not be found in contempt for this.

14
writes " ... indoor (soccer) is separate from Washington Rush, on October 22, 2013 the Rush coac

soccer part of the year round season or not? Why was it resuming if it is year round? It doesn'
20
make any sense.
21
In addition to playing soccer and attending school, Andy also takes Lauren skiing on th

24 to do so, but adding that on at the same time soccer is happening is too much.

7 After I ended the call, 1 visited the restroom and tried to collect myself. I did end up goin
8
back in to the mediation to try one more time to reach an agreement with Andy. Andy's onl
9
proposed solution was for me to let him drive her to all of her practices and games. That is not
10
11 acceptable solution by any means as almost all of her practices fell on my residential days. Ifl wer
12 to agree to that then I would hardly sec her at nil. His only solution was for me to lose my time wit
13
her so he could take her to soccer. That is not in Lauren's best interests.
14
One of the many reasons that Andy cites es his reason for wanting to modify our parentin
IS
plan, which we are in the midst of doing right now, is that he says that I do not care about Ln11re1
16
17 and do not support Lauren and that Lauren is wilh him more of the time because in the past I hnv
18 allowed him to trnnsport her to soccer and to tournaments that I could not afford to get her to. Hi

again, I could not get an answer to the questions "what w-e they practicing for?", "what are th

A few weeks ago, Lauren had a doctor's appointment Andy and I met at the Everett Clini
2
for this appointment. I usually try to have someone with me to prevent Andy from being hostil
3
towards me, but I had to go to this appointment alone. When we were in the lobby, Lauren went t
s the restroom and the second she was out of sight, he began yelling at me for not being fmanciall
6 responsible because a bill collector called his home. He yelled at me in front of the reception sta
7 and other patients waiting to be seen. At one point, he yelled "Gel your shit together") lltls wa
8
very embmTnssing and demeaning. It is not Andy's job to publicly shame and chastise me.

Last week, Lauren hnd another appointment at the Everett Clinic. Andy brought Lauren an

II
Soufyane and I met them there. Soufyane waited in the lobby during her appointment. After th
12 appointment Lauren, Andy and I retumed to the lobby, where Soufynne was waiting. Andy looke
13 at Soufynne and said loudly "Hi Soufyane, you look tired". Soufyane told him that he had bee
14
working n lot lately and hadn't had a chance to shave. Then Andy said even louder, as h
IS
approached the exit door with Lauren "Well I have a razor in my tmck if you can't afford one"
16
17 Then he left with Lauren. I can only imagine the things he continued saying to Lauren after the
23 pounding on the door and hollering tluough the stonn door for me. My dad asked ltlm who he
24 and he just kept saying that he was a friend of a friend. My mom had to leave for an nppointmen
2S
and when she tried to leave the garage, this person sta11ed banging on the car, pulling on th
26
windshield wipers and trying to open her car door. My dad called the police. They detained the ma

who told them that he was trying to serve me with documents that I had already been served with.
2
am including a picture of the man with the police as Exhibit 0. This incident was very scary for al
3
of us. I was scared to go home that night. He left foce prints on my parents' storm door and chase
4
and assaulted my mother's cnr. He was very aggressive and agitated and it was all complete!
s
6 unnecessary.
7 The assault at my mother's home was not only unnecessary because I had already beer
8
served, but because my attorney, Ms. Freitas, emailed Mr. Gaul and Ms. Buie weeks before an
9
informed them she would have gladly accepted service on my behalf. Granted Ms. Freitas' emai

II
(Exlribit P) is in regards to the first contempt motion, but per that email, Mr. Gaul should hav
12 contact Ms. Freitas' office regarding accepting se1vice. I do not have a histo1y of avoiding servic
t3 and there is no reason that any of this had to happen. This was just one more chance for Andy t
14
harass and intimidate me and my family.
Conclusion-
t6
17 I am not in contempt. I have not intentionally violated any court order. I have tried m
18 hardest to figure out what is happening with soccer and huve never been able to get any clea
19
infonnation. I do not agree that Louren should continue to play select soccer and so after the "e.n
20
of season party" and "last game of the season" I began trying to reach an agreement with Andy
21
When it became clear that we would not be able to reach an agreement I contacted Volunteers o
22
23 America to request mediation. I went to mediation prepared lo mediate and was hopeful that w

to Coach Brittney for 1cu mg up t 1c team 111 ympial It's been awesome working with the girls
and seeing them improve each practice and competing in games. Win or loss, we all are learning
and growing together and that's most impo11ant.
We will be taking a break this April and regrouping ot the end of the montll in preparation for
May tryouts. Dates ofT arc April 5th-20th. It will be a good time to rest and recuperate.

ll1e end of the season party may now be on Sntyrday. At>ril 19th and we will confirm soon with
octails. Expect o 5pm start still with pizza and pool lime.
Also attached is a great documentary for the girls to watch to gain a different perspective of the
game played around the world. With !he World Cup coming up !his summer, it will be a fun
experience for everybody to leam about different cultures.
It's one my favorites as my wife and I have experienced n little bit of this in Germany, Uganda
and Mexico. Enjoyl

Hello Josten,
It is my understanding that the regular winter season is done, except for this game in Snohomish on Saturday. Is
this correct?
The State Cup games are not pnrt of the regular winter season. Correct?
May try outs arc for the season that begins when?
Thank you.

Subje,t: Fwd: Training/Game This Week
Hi Josten,
Just wondering if there is going to be nn email soon regarding practice days nnd what events are coming up. I
thought this past Saturday was the last game but Andy told me there was a Jamboree. So a little confused on
what the near future is. Please let me know, thank you.
Hi team, just a heads up on your commute for Satu1·day, the Sounders have their home opeuer at
I2pm so plan on troffic through Seattle on your way to om· game.
HI Rush,
Great battle last Saturday. The girls are Improving each week and coming
together as a team. We will focus on pressure and cover this week for defense
and recovery runs. Homework Is 200 juggles this week with bounces.
EXHIBITE
I'm scanning my drivers license and Lauren's birth certificate. Tim suggested If you will not accept this documents as
proof that I am her mother, that I come to you In person showing you this. You arc aware that I am her mother as well
as Rich and Josten do. I will be getting Lauren from practice tonight at 7pm. So Instead of flat out saying no and making
this difficult and adversarial I would like to find a solution and I just provided you with one. This Is absolutely horrible
and ridiculous.

HI Tim,
Without taking legal action I have offered up every which way to prove I am Lauren's mother and to find a solution. For
some reason it appears amy does not want to disclose any current or past records. So I am sending you all the
documents that I've sent amy. If you would accept these documents by email, why would she not? I don't know what
else to do and I should not have to have to pay for my attorney to subpoena everything. I'm not harassing anyone or
being dlfflcult - I am Lauren's mother and I need her records. let me know If there Is anything else I can do or my last
step wlll be calllng my attorney and I should not have to.
My own account Is not what I'm asking for. Tim knows and told me to reinforce that I am asking for Lauren's registrar
Information and correspondence.

Amy for Lauren's dad Lawyer. Here is what I chatted about with Tim Shullz.
I talked to SP! Rush CEO Tim Shultz regarding Lauren Rife's moms emails ond conversation with him. He told
me that he encouraged her to handle it on o local level with Washington as we would not release any
information about her. I told him that we could not release nny info on players if they ore not on the account and
wished he would connect with us prior to speaking to someone that calls him. He said his mom was pretty upset
and going to press legal if we did not release all the info ond emails we hove had. We talked that this is a good
learning tool for Rush as a whole with divorces and families. We have not had any further conversations about
it.

"Playing one sport for 12 months a yem· means a young athlete is either destined to ha\'e great technique,

.. It's not uncommon for kids today to take their play prell)' seriously. Sports practices, personal conching,
drills and detailed workout routines seem to be part of the new normal for any kid ll'ho wants lo plar any
sport. The days of fun, exercise, fresh air and rnndom play haYe given O\"er lo organized, O\'er-scheduled
and sel"ious training. And more kids are becoming specialized at n \'ery young age. In the Sos most kids
who played sports, played multiple sports throughout the year, and had big gaps that included random
outdoor fun. Today, the number of kids who are encouraged (or who chose) to narrow in on one sport, and
try to excel at that just one sport, is large, and still growing. And while some kids thri\'e in this
environment, many are suffering the consequence.~ of too much oft he same activity, for too long, and with
too much intensity. Q,·eruse injmies, burnout and mental fatigue are starting to appear in kids as young as
eleven and twelve.
According to ·>ln11~pvrbi1!.i11;:i"..~·.!.!'.'l~· more than 3.5 million kids under age 14 recei\'e medical treatment fo1·
sports injmies each year nnd high school athletes account for an estimated 2 million injuries, 500,000
,,
doctor ,·isits and 30,000 hospitalizations e\·er.1• yenr. Children between the ages or lh·e and fomteen
account for nearly 40 percent of all spo11s-related injuries treated in hospitals. And e,·r.n more
surprisingly, •".1:! ·•~• · 111.iax;; ·:; are responsible for nearly holf of 1111 sports injuries to middle and high school
students.
One reason that experts gi\'e for this dramatic increase in injuries is a new trend toward sports
\1 '.
specialization in young athletes. This spcciali1.ation, and the year-round training programs that go with it,
also seems to be linked with a dramatic rise in the number of kids showing up in doctor's offices with
chronic O\'eruse injuries including lrti~Jtqjjb, and e\'en :1~1.r.-~.it1•.I {~:_1,:~ ~.J.'h ~_,l.i! • 1\1:n ;iJll.l. And many kids arc
suffering from injul'ies that once were only seen in 1>ro athletes. Joints reconstruction in )'OUng athletes,
unheard of in the 70s and Sos, started emerging in the 90s, and has become a gro\\ing trend in the past
decade.
The recent trend towards sports specialization in young athletes has resulted in kids following year-round
training routines, overnsing muscles, joints and growing bodies In grueling 1·epctition. The idea that
I
-------------·-·-··-·--. - -· . -·. -·-·· ---------
starting young and training early might lead to scholarships, pro careers, success and endorsements can
blind many well-intentioned coaches and parents. Kids bodies arc far more n1lnerable to the stress of

SubJect: Youth Sports and Overuse and Chronic Injuries - Increasing Overuse and Chronic Injuries in
Youth Sporls
Bxperts attribute this increase to the fact that more youth today arc specializing in one sport at an early
age and training year-round. All these injmies can be linked to o\'erusc; doing too mnch, too often. Gone
me the days of switching to a new sport each season - the two or three-sport young athlete seems to be a
things of the past as the competition, access and seasons expand to rcnr-round.
This sports specinlization seems to ha\•e come \\ith a price. Playing a \'ariety of different spmts throughout
the year wns a form cross-training that was extremely beneficial to a young body's physical de\·elopment.
Playing multiple spo1ts, at different times of the ~·enr gi\'es some muscles n chance to rest while others a1·e
being worked. Now those same muscles and joints arc used none-stop and ha\"c no recorn1-y time.
Training the same muscles year-round is believed to be the main cause of the rise in m•eruse injuries in
young nthletes. 'l11e repctiti\'e stress can cause young bodies to break down. When you stress the same
body ports m·er and O\'er again, there's a risk of injmy.
Many physician's who treat these injured kids feel that the solution is education for parents and coaches,
so that they con sec the warning signs and pull kids off the field before injuries get serious.

supporting your child's passion, and when me you ca\'ing in to pressure from a coach or fellow parent?
Learn more about the consequences of sports specialization so you and rour athlete can make smart
decisions.
In general, specialization in sports means playing (or trnining for) one spo1·t, exclusi\'ely, year-round. A
2013 study of young athletes used n sports spccinlizatio11 scale to 1-ate kids' le\'el of speciali7d"ltion.
Researchers ga\'C one point for each of the following, for a maximum score of six:
In that study, kids who hud suffered sports injuries scored higher on the specialization scnle. (~,. ·.· '""'°
i11i11ri1•:; are one of the biggest concerns when athletes tmin intensively for one sport. Relatedly,
specialization can limit normal motor skill dc\·elopment. If n child is spending all his time on the soccer
field, he won't get a chance to learn or impro,·e the skills needed for swimming or ,·olleyball or bicycling. A
softball pitcher will spend the majority of hc1· time throwing, instencl of running or ernn catching.
- --:i--
-Too much ofa good thing can also lead to a_q::_id_,. and l't" '"'"'.Simply put, specialization can takP. the fun
right out of sports. A 2013 study published in the Journal '!{Sport Helmvior reported that young adults
who had specialized as kids were less likely to participate in spm·ts in adulthood. Kids ll'ho nre \'err busy
with one sport may miss the opportunity to stumble onto a different sport ther might i~!''".- 1: ~~ 1_;,·:c.:::_i1.;
!'\•Jrn:, becnuse they aren't trying lots of different acti\'ities.
Finally, there's no guarnntec that sports specialization will lead to a successful athletic caree1-, despite the
pressui·e some kids and parents feel ("If he doesn't play on this ti·a,·el team now, he won't be able to piny in
high school, and then he won't get a college scholarship ... "). John P. Di Fiori, MD, president of the
American Medical Society for Sports Medicine and team physician for UCLA athletics, discussed this at
the society's annual meeting in April, 2013. "With the exception of select sports such as gymnastics in
which the elite competitors are \'Cry young, the best data we ha\'C would suggest that the odd.~ of achie,·ing
elite le\'els with this method are exceedingly pom-. In fact, some studies indicate that early specialization is
less likely to result in success than participating in se\'eral sports as 11 youth, and then specializing at older
11
ngcs.
Once your child does reach age 11 or 12, specialization is not as risl<y and cnn ernn bring some benefits.
Specialization helps kids develop strong skills in their chosen sport. If they arc successful, the~· can build
good confidence in their abilities. They may be able to trD\·cl to interesting places and learn to get along
with lots of different people. And yes-maybe they'll e\'en earn a sports scholarship or create a career for
themselves in sports. If your child is trnly devoted to her sport, has fun playing it, and takes rr• '''""·I;,_,.,, "'

•: . ·.' ·Kobe Bryant, Roger Federer, Tom Brady, l.ebron ,James, Alex
Rodriguez. When these names are brought up, a rew things come lo mind: excellence, transcendent talent,
winning, but the thought of them specializing in one sport should not. Kobe & Federer were soccer playern,
Brady plnycd baseball, Lebron plared football and A-Rod played baskctbnll, footbnll nnd soccer. It's kind
of strange to think that each of these Future Hall of Famcrs in their respective sp01ts didn't spend every
waking moment of I heir life dedicaled lo their chosen profession. Sure you hnvc the story of Tiger Woods
who 11·as placed on the Mike Douglas Show to putt against Bob Hope at the ripe old age of 2. Or tennis
great Andre Agassi who somclimcs prncticed with pro tennis players at the age of 5! But ~·ou ne\'er hear
from the other side of the fence. What aboul the many athletes who spedalize at a young age, only to fall
short of their lofiy ambitions. Wondrous success stories like Tiger Woods and And1·e Agassi are
aber.-ations, but ns long as there are wealth and fame associated with professional nthletes, people will
attempt to make their child the next Tiger Woods. But the question you must ask ~·ourself is "Is it really
worth itr'
Since the sporting 11nh·e1"Sc hns grown in popularity & exposure, the idea of creating the perfect athlete has
Jed to many studies of specialization. l'rom journal mticlcs lo full fledged books, arens of interest
throughout the 20+ years of research include the perfect ngc to specialize in one sport, O\'Cruse injuries in
the young athlete, who should specinlize in a parliculnr sport, and whether or not specialization is needed
for college preparation. They nil hn\•e one centrnl theme, specializing in one sport at a young nge could
have dire consequences on yom body. Youth who m·e coerced into specializing in n sport by family or
coaches are al nn even greater risk. According lo SAflE KIDS USA, children nges 5-13, our ~·outh, account
for nearly 40% of nll sports related injuries.
Many athletes are being faced with the option of specinlizing in one sport or being looked at as not being
dedicated to their particular sport. Gone are the months known as the off-season and just "playing out in
the backyard," now athletes go from theil' school team, to their tra\•eling AAU team, and maybe e\·en on to
a community team. More and more, kids are not gi\'en the option to participate in another sport due to
nothing more then n lack of time. This repetilil'e amount of stress on the mind and body can cnuse
physical & psychological burnouts, injmies related to o\'erusc, O\'ertraining, and maybe e\·en psychological
pl'oblems related to failure. A bumout is defined by sport psychologists as "physical/emotional
exhaustion, sport devaluation, and reduced athletic accomplishment." Injuries related to overnse are n
major concern for younger athletes. Pal'ticipating in the snme spol't stresses the snme bones, joints, and
muscles. With limited rest & reco\•e1y time the body begins to break down, fatigue nnd become more
susceptible to injuries. O\•eruse injmies account for 50% of the amount of total injuries in middle and high
school athletes. O\•ertrnining is the result of the st min & l'epetitious nature of multiple practices \\ithoul
the p1·oper !'est. It could be something that lasts n day or two or something thnt lasts for half the season.
Some psychological problems related to specinli7.ation include loss of focus, loss of interest in a spo1t,
increased amonnt stress that's intertwined in spol't, depression caused by failing and cmotionnl fatigue.
These areas of concern ure becoming the norm for today's athlete which is rniterated in the number of
youth injuries and injuries that were previously only seen in ndults.
What would you do if your son was 6'6 at the age of 13? Would you force them to play a sport that put
them at a disad\'antage 01· in\'oll'e them in n sport that could use their great height to their nd\'antage like
basketball? Or maybe they ha\·e a long torso, a shorter lower body, nnd big feel; they would be best suited
fol' swimming sp01ts. While none of these trnils necessarily menn future success, it would be rensonable
for one to II)' and specialize them in a particuln1· sport. If one chooses the one sport specialization route,
the two most important things for n parent/coach to remember is the safety of the child comes first nnd to
ne\•e1· make the sport feel like a job, always keep it fun. Anothel' significant task in specializing in one sport
is to protect the athlete and theil' hcnlth. According to the Amcricm1 Acndemy of Pediatrics, signs of sport
O\'erload include chronic injuries, illnesses, weight loss, sleep disturbances, nnd foiling gmdes in school.

------- ··-- ---
Specialization has been a hot topic of discussion for many years. As with any hot topic, many studies ha\'e
been done to support or refute the practice of specializing in one sport. All of the studies I hu\"C read all
point to one thing: specializing in one spo1t at a young age, e\'en excelling at the sport at a young age, does
not equate to future success. That means a child can master bending it like Beckham at the age of 3, win
e\'eJ)' MVP trophy for each team he's on, and e,·en dominate one of the many 11'8\'eling AAU soccer teams;
it does not mean thnt he will ha\'e fulme success as a soccer player. The only thing that has been
accomplished in that scenario of soccer specialization is that 1.) The child hns lost the opportunity lo
discover other talents 2.) The years of pounding on his body could result in future injuries or 3.) The child
might burnout & tire of the spOl't. It is also of note one study whose conclusion was that kids do not ha\'c
to be one sport specific to compete at the collegiate le\'el. Wow, n study of collegiate athletes that shows
that early specialization is not needed and is no guarantee for future success. Who would ha\'e e\-er
guessed?
So allow your child to participate in multiple sports. That way he or she can become adept to using o
multitude of muscles and puts less stress on lhe muscles and bones they use in their primary sport.
Pnrticipating in multiple sports also allows them to sec if they nrc talented in another spo1·t, less stress on
the body, O\'erall athleticism increases, gain more fiiends & social interaction, nnd there is less pressure to
be perfect.

I'm concerned about her and how this conflict against me end the litigation is afTecting her. She
needs to have e neutrnl person she can talk to privately without worrying about any
consequences. It's imperative she start counseling right away. I've asked Lauren if she would like
lo do this on her own, end she agreed and seemed happy/relieved by this idea. I have someone in

Andy,
I still hove not heard bock from you regarding counseling for Lamcn. I initially set up the
appointment for her al the Everett clinic just so we could get an appointment with someone. l
never heard if this was an acceptable date or time. However, since that time l have continued to
research children's therapists and have made many inquiries and phone calls. I have henrd really
great things about Karen Kirsch. She has a good reputation and works with children. She has
offices in Marysville and Seattle. I have gone ahead and mode an appointment for Lauren lo see
her on May 29th in Marysville at 1Oam and will go ahead and cancel the appointment at the
Everel1 Clinic. The Everett clinic is medical bnsed and is really only short term. I think that
Karen Kirsch could be a better fit becnuse she has lots of experience with children of divorced
families nnd can continue to see Lauren for ns long as she needs to be seen. I am going to move
forward with this plan unless I hear otherwise from you.

hat the following is true and correct.
11
1. IDENTITY AND PURPOSE
12
I am the petitioner in this matter. I make this declaration to reply to my former wife's
13
declaration concerning her contempt. This case is about whether Jennifer Mehaddi has
14
illfully failed to comply with the court ordered parenting plan.

2. THE REAL ISSUES
16
A. EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIES: The temporary parenting plan requires
17
each parent to get Lauren to her games and practices. Jennifer's claim of sole decision
18
making authority on the subject of extracurricular activities is innovative and inconsistent
19
ith the parenting plan. The only games and practices Lauren had at the time the order
20
as signed were her soccer games. Jennifer's "understanding" would erase the provision.
21
Jennifer Mehaddi knew the soccer season. was not over. Please refer to the
22
attachments to my previous declaration. March 10, 2014 the coach sent an email directly
23
o her about games on March 16 locally and March 23 in Olympia. That email also

discussed the practice schedule through the remainder of March and April (#8). She sent

6 from me. She sent the email on May 15, 2014 at 11 :27:52 a.m. By 1:51 p.m. Jennifer had
7 the Intake forms from Ms. Kirsch and had scheduled an appointment without giving me an
· 9 evidence that I had not objected and it Is not evidence that I had agreed by acquiescence.
10 But Jennifer has now heard otherwise from me and she has not made any effort to
11 schedule an appointment with a jointly selected counselor. Because she did not respond
15 is false and has nothing_ to do _with her ability to comply with the parenting p_lan. T~ere Is
16 nothing scary about insisting that we follow the parenting plan. I did not misbehave toward
17 Soufyane, not at the doctor's office nor anywhere else. Nor would I.
18 I have asked the court to require Jennifer Mehaddi to let me know her work
19 schedule because she has not been forthcoming in the past. Her claim of "control and
20 abuse" is ludicrous. She knows I do not care about when she works, but I do care about
21 when Lauren is scheduled to be with me. Parental availability is part of that determination.
22 4. SUMMARY
23 Jennifer Mehaddl does not respect the court's order. She is in contempt of court.

Subject: Re: Lauren
Elise
Your email asks for a comparison of Ms. Paik and Ms. Kirsch. The short answer is that
I did my research on counselors, and found Ms. Paik, and I wanted Lauren to have
counseling with her. Jennifer also did her research and found Ms. Paik and wanted
Lauren to have counseling with her. We had an agreement that Lauren would have
counseling with Ms. Paik.
Then Jennifer unilaterally decided on somebody else. That Is not joint decision
making. That is.not what our parenting plan calls for. Jennifer's recent actions are not
coparenling and not joint decision making. Three limes I have set up mediation. She
refused to participate. Twice she simply walked out. I am more than willing to work with
Jennifer in coparenting, but I am not willing to be summarily excluded.
The decision to use Ms. Paik was a joint decision made on May 12. Jennifer and I both
named the same person: we both agreed on the same counselor. I thought Jennifer's
meth.od of announcing her selection of Ms. Paik and making the appointment was
abrupt, but I decided not to complain about it because I had come to the same
selection. I do not confuse joint decision making with manners. I wish she had made a
joint decision with me before making the appointment, but at least we had an
agreement.
Thanks,
Jennifer

nne-paik.ashx%3 Fp%3J)5 L06%26srchloc%3D22#2670
I have a couple of counselors names at the Everett clinic. Jeanne Paik was one of them
and Stephanie garrlson was the other. I called the clinic this morning to see which one
was accepting new patients. Jeanne Palk Is and Stephanie Garrison is not. Both of
them came highly recommended.
Just three days later, on May 15 at 11:27 a.m. she sent me an email claiming she had
not heard from me,cancelling the appointment with the agreed Jeanne Paik, and instead
made an appointment with yet another counselor, excluding me from the process:
Andy,
I still have not heard back from you regarding counseling for Lauren.... I have heard really
great things about Karen Kirsch . ... I have gone ahead and made an appoinrment for Lauren to
see her on !day 29th in !Yfarysvil/e al J Oamand will go ahead and cancel the appointment atthe
Everett Clinic. ... I am going to move fonvard with this plan unless I hear otherwise from you.
Jennifer
She informed me about both actions after the fact in the same email. I was shocked. I
called Everett Clinic to verify the appointment on May 29 and was told it had been
cancelled. I made a new appointment with Ms. Paik for June 12, which holds Lauren's
place with the agreed counselor and gives Jennifer and me time to come to an
agreement on a counselor, if not Ms. Paik then someone else we agree upon.
Jennifer never gave me the chance to evaluate Ms. Kirsch, nor to agree or
disagree. Ms. Kirsch and Ms. Paik have similar educational backgrounds so I might
have agreed to use Ms. Kirsch if she were not "out of network".
Jennifer stated that Everett Clinic offers short term counseling only, though in my
research, I was able to learn Ms. Paik does long term counseling. She also said the
counseling at Everett Clinic is "medical based" which I do not understand since
counselors do not prescrlbe medication. I realize that this may be a simple
misunderstanding. These are topics to discuss when making a joint decision.
I really do want to parent jointly and cooperatively, and this should have been an easy
joint decision, and a success for both of us.
Quite apart from joint decision making, there is a difficulty with insurance coverage. Ms.
Palk is "in network" for my coverage. Ms. Kirsch is "out of network", which would
require greater out of pocket cost. Jennifer's second May 15 at 2:14:01 p.m.stated
I will fill out the paperwork and you can take care if the insurance portion. You will be
reimbursed out of network. If there is a portion I am responsible for than I expect a bill
showing what I owe per the current parenting plan.
The problem here is that in the past several years Jennifer has not paid any uninsured
medical or dental cost, so I have paid all of Lauren's medical and dental bills. It does
not make sense to go out of the Premera Blue Cross Network when there are many
excellent "in network" counselors available to choose from.
If Jennifer has changed her mind about the agreed counselor, I would really like to know
why. Perhaps I might agree and we could find another counselor.

Lauren Rife
Ms. Kirsch
I am attorney for Andrew Rife. He is the father of 9 year old Lauren Rife. Jennifer Mehaddi is
Lauren's mother.
Part 4.2 of the October 24, 2013 parenting plan (attached) establishes joint decision making.
Mrs. Mehaddi and Mr. Rife had both settled upon a different counselor (through Everett Clinic) for
Lauren, then Mrs. Mehaddi abruptly changed to you without consultation or agreement from Mr.
Rife. There was an appointment at Everett Clinic. Then Mrs. Mehaddi sent an email announcing
that she wanted to consider you as counselor, ending with a statement that if there was no
response she would move ahead. 94 minutes later she had already scheduled an appointment
with you and had your intake materials. She unilaterally cancelled the other appointment.
Mr. Rife was not Included in the decision to select you as counselor for Lauren. He does not
consent to Lauren receiving c.ounseling from you. He objects to you providing service in this
matter. He provides the health insurance for Lauren. He will not cooperate in submission of any
insurance claim for your service. In the event that there is a billing, he will not pay it.
Mrs. Mehaddi is scheduled to appear before the court on June 3, 2014 to show cause why she
should not be held in contempt for a variety of reasons. One of them is her action in disregarding
the parenting plan in her selection of you as counselor for Lauren.
Please understand this is not about you. If the matter had been approached differently and if you
were within his health insurance network of providers, it is possible he might have agreed to your
participation with his daughter. It is about Mrs. Mehaddi's refusal to make a joint decision and her
continuing efforts to assume sole decision making authority in violation of the parenting plan.
Mrs. Mehaddi's attorney Veronica Freitas and the guardian ad litem Elise Buie are receiving
copies of this email.

may ask for modification under RCW 26.09.260.
Notice may be delayed for 21 days if the relocating person is entering a domestic violence shelter

ACTION:
HEARING STRICKEN/CODE:
DOCUMENTS FILED:
PROCEEDINGS/COURT'S FINDINGS:
THE COURT IS SHOCKED THAT THE FATHER WOULD FILE THESE CONTEMPT ACTIONS IN
LIGHT OF THE GUARDIAN AD LITEM'S REPORT. THAT REPORT CLEARLY STATES THAT
THE CONFLICT IN THIS LITIGATION IS DAMAGING THE CHILD. THE FATHER APPEARS
NOT TO CARE WHAT HIS BEHAVIORS ARE DOING TO THE CHILD. IT APPEARS THAT THE
FATHER IS INTENT ONLY UPON GETTING HIS WAY, NOT THE BEST INTERESTS OF THE
CHILD.
PERHAPS THE FATHER UNDERSTOOD WHAT ALL WAS REQUIRED WHEN SIGNING UP THE
CHILD FOR SOCCER, BUT IT IS CLEAR THAT THE MOTHER DID NOT AND THE COURT ALSO
FOUND THE INFORMATION CONFUSING. THE SCHEDULE IS EXTREMELY INTRUSIVE ON THE
PARENTING SCHEDULE. IF THE PARENTS AGREE THAT IS ONE THING; HOWEVER, THE
COURT TAKES ISSUE WITH THE SCHEDULE AS THE TIME WITH THE PARENTS IS MORE
IMPORTANT THAN SPORTS. THERE IS NOTHING INDICATING WHEN THE CHILD SIGNED UP
THAT THE MOTHER AGREED TO HAVING HER RESIDENTIAL TIME INTERFERED WITH BY
SOCCER. THE COURT DOES NOT FIND THAT THE MOTHER WILLFULLY VIOLATED THE
PROVISION OF THE ORDER.
THE PARTIES HAVE DIFFERING VIEWS OF WHY THE MEDIATION FAILED. THEY
CLEARLY WENT IN TO MEDIATION THINKING THAT TWO COMPLETELY DIFFERENT ISSUES
WERE TO BE MEDIATED. THE MOTHER DID NOT WANT THE CHILD PLAYING SOCCER. THE
1 MINUTE ENTRY
. . .
FATHER THOUGHT THEY WERE GOING TO DEFEAT THE TRANSPORTATION PROBLEMS BECAUSE
THE CHILD WAS PLAYING SOCCER. THE PARTIES DID NOT EVEN AGREE WHAT WAS TO BE
ADDRESSED AT MEDIATION.
THE COURT FINDS THESE MOTIONS ATTEMPTS AT CONTROLLING THE MOTHER. THE
PURGE PROVISION OF GIVING THE FATHER HER SCHEDULE FOR THE ~HOLE YEAR IS
CLEARLY INVASIVE. THE COURT WILL NOT FIND CONTEMPT IN RELATION TO
MEDIATION. THE COURT FINDS THAT BOTH PARTIES HAVE SOME RESPONSIBILITY IN
THE MEDIATION FAILURE.
THE COURT CANNOT UNDERSTAND WHY THERE WAS NO RESPONSE TO THE PSYCHOLOGIST
ISSUE. JOINT DECISION MAKING DOES NOT MEAN THAT ONE PARENT CANNOT SCHEDULE
AN APPOINTMENT BEFORE TELLING THE OTHER PARENT WHO THE PROFESSIONAL IS AND
THEN WAITING FOR AN OBJECTION.
THE COURT WILL SUA SPONTE MODIFY THE RESIDENTIAL SCHEDULE ONLY AS RELATES
TO THE FIRST RIGHT OF REFUSAL. THE FATHER APPEARS SO RIGID THAT EVEN IF THE
MOTHER RUNS OVER THE FOUR HOUR LIMIT BY TEN MINUTES HE SHOULD BE GIVEN THE
RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL. THIS PROVISION SHALL BE CHANGED FROM FOUR HOURS TO
TWENTY-FOUR HOURS. TIME MISSED: LINE DRAWN, COMPLY EXACTLY OR I WILL FILE
A CONTEMPT. CHILD IS BROUGHT OUT FOR LUNCH TO BREAK UP THE DAY SO THAT THE
FOUR HOURS REQUIRED FOR RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL WOULD BE BROKEN UP.
THE FATHER'S CONTROLLING ISSUE IS OF GREAT CONCERN TO THIS COURT. IT
APPEARS HE IS PUSHING WAY TOO HARD AND THE MOTHER IS OVER REACTING. THERE
HAS BEEN DOMESTIC VIOLENCE IN THIS CASE. THE PARENTS WERE CO-PARENTING WELL
TOGETHER PRIOR TO THE TIME THE MOTHER GOT A NEW SIGNIFICANT OTHER.
THE COURT WILL NOT FIND CONTEMPT. THE COURT WILL AWARD ATTORNEY FEES TO
THE RESPONDENT. COUNSEL SHALL PROVIDE A FEE DECLARATION BY MONDAY. IF THE
PETITIONER HAS OBJECTIONS, SET IT FOR HEARING. IF THERE IS NO OBJECTION
AFTER A WEEK, THE COURT WILL ENTER THE ORDER.

) DECLARATION
4 My name is Veronica Freitas and I the attorney for the Respondent, Jennifer Mehaddi. I
5 am over eighteen years of age and am competent to testify as a witness in this matter.
6
The Petitioner, Andy Rife, filed two separate motions to have the Respondent, Ms.
7
Mehaddi, found in contempt for violating many provisions on the parties' parenting plan. Both
8
motions were heard before Commissioner Susan Gaer on June 13, 2014. Commissioner Gaer di
9
not find that Ms. Mehaddi had violated the parties' parenting plan in any way and ordered Mr.
10
Rife to pay Ms. Mehaddi attorney fees.
II
Section 3.11 of the Order on Show Cause re Contempt entered by Commissioner Gaer on
12
June 13, 2014 (Exhibit A) states "Veronica Freitas shall provide a declaration regarding fees by
I)
Monday 6/16/2014. lfMr. Rife does not object within 1 week, court will enter judgment in the
14
requested amount. If he does object the court will decide amount on motion ... "
15
16 I submitted my declaration re attorney fees and proposed order re attorney fees and costs
17 to the court and to Mr. Gaul on June 16, 2014. These are attached as Exhibit B. The costs and
18 fees are very reasonable. Mr. Rife's motions were very lengthy. The second Order re Show
19 Cause re Contempt was signed by the court on May 19, 2014 but was not served until the
20 afternoon of Thursday, May 22"d, the Thursday before Memorial Day weekend. The response to
21 both contempt motions was due at noon the Tuesday afler Memorial Day weekend. The
22 response to the motions was drafted over Memorial Day weekend and was filed timely.
23
In order to respond to all of Mr. Rife's outrageous accusations, it was necessary to review
24
literally hundreds of email exchanges between the parties, the child's soccer team administrators,
25
the parties' GAL and medical professionals. It was also necessary to review medical records,
26
previous motions, declarations, correspondence, orders, Ms. Mehaddi's employment records and
27
more. All of this needed to be done in order to draft Ms. Mehaddi's response. Ms. Mehaddi was
28
charged for a total of 6.25 hours of my time. That includes appearing for the court hearing. In
2 reality I estimate that I spent more than ten hours on Mr. Rife's contempt motions.
3
Ms. Mehaddi was served with the second contempt motion at her home by a professional
4
process server on May 22nd. She went to her parents' home to scan the documents and email
s
them to my office. While at her parents' home a strange man came to the home and began
6
banging on the door aggressively. When Ms. Mehaddi's mother attempted to leave the home,
7
this man began banging on her vehicle, pulling on the windshield wipers and attempted to open
8
the car doors. He then chased afler Ms. Mehaddi's mother as she drove away. It turned out that
9
this was a former client of Mr. Gaul, the Petitioner's attorney. Mr. Gaul had sent this person out
10
to serve Ms. Mehaddi again even though she had already been served. This was incredibly
11
frightening and upsetting to Ms. Mehaddi and her family and there were many phone calls and
12
emails with my office regarding this incident.
13
My staff also spent significant time getting necessary information from Ms. Mehaddi in
14
order to prepare the response to the motions and then revise and finalize the response. More tim
15
had to be spent arranging for filing and delivery of the response. In order to have the response
16
delivered by noon on Tuesday, the day after Memorial Day, ABC Legal Messengers charged a
17
$173.00 fee for expedited delivery (Exhibit C).
18
19 Mr. Gaul filed an objection to my attorney fee declaration and proposed order (Exhibit
20 D). Commissioner Gaer then ordered that we needed to note a motion (Exhibit E). My fees are
21 more than reasonable. They are not excessive. I am requesting this court to enter the proposed
22 order and judgment re attorney fees that was submitted to this court on June 16, 2014. I am also
23 requesting the court to order Mr. Rife to pay an additional $I 000.00 in fees for forcing Ms.
25 I declare under penalty of perjury pursuant to the laws of the State of Washinb'1on
26
that the following is true and correct to the best of my knowledge.

11 Respondent.
12
Andrew Scott Rife objects to the amounts claimed by Veronica Freitas as attorney fees in
13 e above matter based upon an oral ruling of the Honorable Commissioner Susan Gaer on June
14 13, 2014.
15
The fees declaration presents conclusory amounts, without the ability to determine whether
16 all portions of the fees claimed were reasonable under the circumstances. In the absence of an
17 itemized account statement, the court has no ability to exercise its discretion in a meaningful
manner.
18
19 The amount claimed by Ms. Freitas appears to be in excess of a reasonable fee for the work

RED HERRING
12
Ms. Freitas discusses service of process. Mrs. Mehaddi was avoiding service of
13
process. The Order to Show Cause was issued on May 19, 2014. The very next day, May
14
0, 2014 ABC Legal Messengers reported Mrs. Mehaddi being at her condominium on a
15
arm day, with the door open. In 15 minutes of knocking and ringing the doorbell the
16
process server could not get a response to the front door. The family dog barked, assisting
17
in the notification thatthere was someone atthe door, but Mrs. Mehaddi refused to answer.
18
See Declaration of Katherine DeVoe re: Service of Process, filed with this declaration.
19
When service had not been accomplished by the morning of May 22, 2014 I
20
obtained a second process server. As it turned out, both process servers were successful.
21
he second process server did not know that Mrs. Mehaddi had already been served when
22
he served at Mrs. Mehaddi's parents' location. Neither he nor Mr. Rife are responsible for
23
he histrionic response from Mrs. Mehaddi and her extended family. There is no indication
24
hat any increased cost was involved.

FW: TRIAL ASSIGNMENT- Litiu v. Burian (13-3-01750-8 SEA)?
Veronica Freitas
5/29/14
Hi Carl,
Please see below. My King County trfal has been on standby all week and I was just
sent out for Monday morning. I need to reschedule the Mehaddi contempt hearing. I
am scheduled to be in Sno Co the morning of our mediation on two other matters. We
can put the contempt hearing on that day too, June 13th which is the following Friday. I
am scheduled to get a ruling on a trial at 9:00 am that morning and will be in Family
Law by 9:30 on the other two cases and can do Mehaddi as well.
The King County case has 3 attorneys and an interpreter and is expected to last two
weeks. Please be agreeable. I do not know if Elise is available on Friday the 13th or
not. Please let us know. Thank you and sorry for the timing. I was hoping to complete
this trial before our hearing, but a third attorney and interpreter were added which
doubled the expected length of the case.

reset to a later date, but will remain with Wayne Pellegrini.
And you and I agreed to reset the trial date. We discussed that a late-September
date is likely to be assigned.
The change of trial date will make it possible for the parties to accomplish the things

12 I, Carl J. Gaul, declare under penalty of perjury of the laws of the State of
ashington, that the following is true and correct.
13
1. IDENTITY AND PURPOSE
14
I am attorney for Andrew Rife. I make this declaration to Respond to Veronica
15
Freitas' motion and declartion for attorney fees. Her request is unreasonable and should
16
be denied. If not denied, the court should award significantly less than she requests. Mr.
17
Rife suggests $1000.
18
BACKGROUND FACTS
19
Mr. Rife brought motions for orders finding Mrs. Mehaddi in contempt for her
20
iolations of parenting plan. His position was simple: Mrs. Mehaddi had refused to comply
21
ith the parenting plan. Mrs. Mehaddi filed a wide ranging response, informing the court
22
about a variety of topics beyond those forming the basis of Mr. Rife's motion. The court
23
denied Mr. Rite's motions, and oraled ruling that there would be an award of attorney fees.
24
Ms. Freitas filed a fees declaration seeking an award of $2749.23. Mr. Rife provided

1 an objection. The objection noted that the fees declaration presented conclusory amounts,
2 ithout any itemization, and without any l!leaningful ability for the court to exercise its
3 discretion.
4 Ms. Freitas has now filed the motion for fees. Her motion and attachments do not
5 address the objection. She still has not provided any itemization of the time spent nor an
6 xplanation why the fee claimed is reasonable. But she adds $1000 to her request, without
7 explaining why that is reasonable nor why it would be within the court's oral decision.
a 3. FEE FACTORS
9 In determining an award of fees, the courts look to RPC 1.5(a) which states the
10 basic principal that a lawyer may not charge or collect an unreasonable fee nor an
14

15 1 the time and labor Ms. Feitas states that 6.25 hours of
required, the novelty and her time were invested in these two
16 difficulty of the contempt motions. In her current declaration
questions involved, and the skill she provides no indication what she did
17 requisite to perform the legal during those hours, except to say that the
service property; court hearing was included. In her June 13
18 declaration she lists a variety of activities,
including communicating with opposing
19 counsel and the guardian ad litem regarding
hearing dates. She certainly did a lot of
20 communicating about hearing dates, as
several hearing dates were set, and reset, all
21 at her request.
She does not address the time
22 involved nor the difficulty of the questions.

II. Basis
This is a petition for an order modifying the prior custody decree/parenting plan/residential
schedule in this matter and approving the proposed parenting plan/residential schedule, which is
fi/ed with this petition.
This court has jurisdiction over this proceeding for the reasons below:
This court has exclusive continuing jurisdiction. The court has previously made a child
custody, parenting plan, residential schedule or visitation determination in this matter and
retains jurisdiction under RCW 26.27.211.
the children lived in Washington with a parent or a person acting as a parent for at
least six consecutive months immediately preceding the commencement of this
proceeding.
[l the children are less than six months old and have lived in Washington with a
parent or a person acting as parent since birth.
[l any absences from Washington have been only temporary.
[l Washington was the home state of the children within six months before the
commencement of this proceeding and the children are absent from the state but a
parent or person acting as a parent continues to live in this state.
[] The children and the parents or the children and at least one parent or a person acting as a
parent have significant connection with the state other than mere physical presence, and
substantial evidence is available in this state concerning the children's care, protection,
training and personal relationships, and:
[] All courts in the children's home state have declined to exe~cise jurisdiction on the ground
that a court of this state is the more appropriate forum to determine the custody of the
children under RCW 26.27 .261 or .271.
[] This court has temporary emergency jurisdiction over this proceeding because the children
are present in this state and the children have been abandoned or it is necessary in an
emergency to protect the children because the children, or a sibling or parent of the children
is subjected to or threatened with abuse. RCW 26.27.231.
[] Other:
in no place other than the state of Washington and with no person other than the requesting
party or the other party.
[l in the following places with the following persons (list each place the children lived,
including the state of Washington, the dates the children lived there and the names of the
persons with whom the children lived. The present addresses of those persons must be
listed in the required Confidential Information Form.):
M The requesting party does not know of any person other than the other party who has
physical custody of, or claims to have custody or visitation rights to, the children.
[] The following persons have physical custody of, or claim to have custody or visitation
rights to, the children (list their names and the children concerned below and list their
present addresses in the Confidential Information Form. Do not list the other party.):
~ The requesting party has not been involved in any other proceeding regarding the children.
[] The requesting party has been involved in the following proceedings regarding the children
(list the court, the case number, and the date of the judgment or order):
)>4' The requesting party does not know of, any other legal proceedings concerning the
children.
[] The requesting party knows of, the following legal proceedings that concern the children
(list the children concerned, the court, the case number, and the kind of proceeding):
[l The children have been integrated into my family with the consent of the other
party in substantial deviation from the decree/parenting plan/residential schedule.
[l The other party has been found in contempt of court at least twice within three
years because the party failed to comply with the residential time provisions in the
court-ordered parenting plan, or the parent has been convicted of custodial
interference in the first or second degree under RCW 9A.40.060 or 9A.40.070.
[] is based on a change of residence of the parent with whom the child does not reside
a majority of the time or an involuntary change in work schedule by a party which
makes the residential schedule in the parenting plan impractical to follow.
This section only applies to a person with whom the child does not reside a
majority of the time who is seeking to increase residential time.
[] The following nonresidential provisions of the parenting plan should be adjusted because
there is a substantial change of circumstances of either party or of the children and the
adjustment is in the best interest of the children:
[] Dispute resolution.
[] Decision making.
[] Transportation arrangements.
[] Other:
If you need immediate protection, contact the clerk/court for RCW 26.50 Domestic
Violence forms or RCW 10.14 Antiharassment forms.

1. IDENTITY AND PURPOSE
14
I am attorney for Andrew Rife. I make this declaration to oppose Ms. Freitas' Motion
15
to Quash Subpoena.
16
FACTS
17
Andrew Rife brought a petition for modification of parenting plan. That matter has
18
been resolved with entry of a new permanent parenting plan on November 17, 2014.
19
The entry of a new parenting plan did not resolve all issues. The parties have
20
agreed that child support and attorney fees issues are to be resolved by binding arbitration
21
before Wayne Pellegrini. The arbitration is presently pending.
22
Mrs. Mehaddi has alleged that the petition was brought in bad faith, without
23
reasonable cause.
24
This action was filed in 2013 after an incident of domestic violence during which

9 copying charges for the copies he received.
10 In August 2014 there was another incident of domestic violence between Jennifer
11 Mehaddi and Soufyane Mehaddi. The police report shows that he spit in her face twice and
12 hit her. He was arrested for Assault 4 DV, but the prosecutor did not charge him with any
13 offense.

ANDREW RIFE, No. 05-3-02755-1
Petitioner,
12 and Reply Declaration of Veronica
Freitas
13 JENNIFER MEHADDI (flea Jennifer Rife),
14
Res ondent.
IS My name is Veronica Freitas and I am over eighteen years of age and competent to testi
16
in this matter. I am the attorney for the Respondent, Jennifer Mehaddi. I have reviewed the
17
response declaration of the Petitioner, Andrew Rife's attorney, Carl Gaul and am submitting this
18
declaration in reply.
19
20 The parties attended mediation and agreed on a final parenting plan. Mr. Gaul entered
21 the Final Parenting Plan and Order on Modification with the court on November 17, 2014. These
22
orders are attached as Exhibit A.
23
The parties agreed to submit the remaining issues (child support and attorney fees) to
24
binding arbitration by Wayne Pelligrini. Final submissions have already been submitted by both
25
26 parties and we are waiting for Mr. Pelligrini to issue his decision. There is no opportunity to
27 submit additional information to the arbiter and therefore, the subpoena is moot.

The subpoena for Ms. Buie's file was served after the discovery cutoff date. The trial date
2
has been stricken. The Final Parenting Plan and Order on Modification have been entered with
3
the court. Ms. Buie's file has no relevance to calculating child support or attorney fees. The
4
5
Subpoena Duces Tecum should be quashed.
6 I declare under penalty of perjury pursuant to the laws of the State of Washington that the
7 contents of the letter are true and correct to the best of my knowledge.

10 • The respondent/father will pay the mother monthly child support in the amount of
II $830.90
12
• The father is denied a deviation without prejudice. The father is deserving of a
13 deviation of child support based upon the significant time he spends with Lauren.

findings, and gives no indications how the decrease was calculated. Although Mr. Sigler
.wales how much money he spends on Kristina while she is in his care, the findings and
2 conclusions entered hy the judge do not reflect this. Thus, the devialionfailsfor this
3
reason, as well as/or noncompliance with RCW 26.19.075(/)(d). 9
4
In the instant case, the mother's actual net income is approximately $2,700.00 (without imputing
5
income). Her reported expenses are approximately $3,000. The respondent is married, however;
6
7 there is no evidence of income reported to the new husband. In fact, the joint tax return, for
8 2013, indicates a community "adjusted gross income" of$36,000. When considering the
9 financial welfare of the child, I felt it important to also consider the number of parties in
10
respondent's household that she is responsible for; as well as her own financial circumstances.
11
Second, there is no evidence (even after thoroughly considering her financial declaration) the
12
reduced hours that Lauren spends with her will reduce her overall expenses. On the other hand,
13
the father's net income is approximately $6,900. His reported expenses of approximately
14
15 $3,600.00; include Lauren's tuition. Using the same analysis, I could not reasonably find the
16 increased time with Lauren resulted in an increase in his reported expenses. When examining his
17 financial declaration, I see no significant increase to his "Food and Supplies", the "Children"
18
category or the more basic expenses such as his mortgage and utility payments. Clearly, the
19
greatest "child" expense is Lauren's tuition, which he agreed to cover 100%; provided Lauren
20
continued to attend the school of his choice. Because the father purposefully agreed to pay
21
100% of this cost, I was compelled to eliminate that expense as a justification for a deviation. In
22
23 final analysis, a trial court is required to enter written findings of fact supported by the evidence,

It appears both parties have filed appropriate motions when necessary. Moreover; I cannot see
2
where the petitioner failed to timely cooperate with the request of the GAL and/orders of this
3
court (no evidence to support). The matter may not have moved as quickly as the respondent
4
would have liked, but the question goes to "whether or not the actions of the petitioner resulted
5
in the necessity of incurring additional legal fees". In re Marriage of Wallace 111 Wn. App.
6
8 Attorney fees based upon RCW 26.09.140 11 , I find the respondent to be in financial need
9 for assistance. The respondent's reported net income, even after receiving child support of
10
$830.90, is still significantly less than that of the petitioner. The evidence suggests respondent's
11
husband is currently unemployed. Her financial declaration shows monthly expenses of
12
approximately $3,000.00. Second, I considered the ability of the petitioner to pay or assist with
13
the payment of the respondent's fees. I look at his financial resources. In this case I looked
14
15 primarily at his income and expenses. I find the petitioner has a resulting net income of
16 approximately $6,902.64. From this income he is required to pay respondent $830.90 for child
17 support. Additionally, he has personal monthly expenses that exceed $3,600 (including tuition of
18
$579.00). Based upon his financial declaration, he is left with monthly net disposable funds of
19
approximately $2,500. His financial declaration does indicate other resources including $35,000
20
on deposit in banks as well as other funds. Third, I reviewed respondent's fee verification.

In the Arbitration Award previously filed with this court, this arbitrator was under the

impression the respondent's husband, Soufyane Mehaddi, was unemployed. Therefore, it was
20
assumed the respondent, through her employment (with occasional gifts from her family) was
21
supporting the "household" including herself, the party's minor daughter, Lauren, and her
22
23 husband. As a result of the additional materials received as part of this reconsideration, it is now

7 This parent shall provide health insurance
[X] [1 coverage for the child that is available through
8 employment or is union-related even though

5 If the childare receiving state financed medical coverage, the Division of Child
Support may enforce the responsible parent's monthly premium.
6
The parent(s) shall maintain health insurance coverage, if available for the child
7 listed in paragraph 3.1, until further order of the court or until health insurance is
no longer available through the parents' employer or union and no conversion
8 privileges exist to continue coverage following termination of employment.

If proof that health insurance coverage is available or not available is not

16
You may have separate obligations to provide health insurance coverage for the
17 child(ren) under federal law.
19 A parent required to provide health insurance coverage must notify both the Division of
Child Support and the other parent when coverage terminates.

provided in RCW 26.18.170. If a parent does not provide proof of accessible coverage
22 for the child(ren) through private insurance, a parent may be required to satisfy his or her
medical support obligation by doing one of the following, listed in order of priority:

Comes now Andrew Scott Rife, Petitioner above named, and moves this Court
13 to enter an Order granting the relief requested in Part I below:
14 I. Relief Requested
15 Andrew Scott Rife moves this Court to enter an Order of Support consistent
ith the Arbitration Award and Arbitration Award on Reconsideration.
16
II. ·Statement of Grounds
17
This matter arises out of a contested action for major modification of parenting
18 plan filed by Andrew Rife. He requested modification of child support as part of that
petition. At mediation with attorney Wayne Pellegrini the parties agreed upon a new
19 permanent parenting plan. On November 17, 2014 the court entered an Order on
Modification and a Parenting Plan (Final Order). These documents concerned the
20 parenting plan only, and dicf not address any issues of support or attorney fees.
21 The parties agreed to binding arbitration of child support and attorney fees.
Wayne Pellegrini was agreed to be the sole arbitrator. Mr. Pellegrini issued an
22 rb1tration Award and lafer issued an Arbitration Award on Reconsideration. The
time for further reconsideration has expired.
23
The arbitrator determined that the child support transfer payment should be
24 $400 per month payable by Mr. Rife to Mrs. Mehaddi. He also determined that Mr.
Rife should pay $2500 toward Mrs. Mehaddi's attorney fees.

Issue: Determination of each party's child support obligation based upon the following:

spends with Lauren under the terms of the residential schedule.
8
Award: Child Support Transfer Payment - Payment made to - Date of Commencement:
9
10 • The respondent/father will pay the mother monthly child support in the amount of
11 $830.90
12
• The father is denied a deviation without prejudice. The father is deserving of a
13
deviation of child support based upon the significant time he spends with Lauren.
However; to provide a deviation at this time would leave the mother without the financial
14 ability to meet the basic necessities of the child in her home.
20 Findings: I find the father's income, deductions and credits for determining child support to
21
be as follows:
22
• Monthly gross income of$9,061.38
23 • Other Income: No other income was reported or verified.
24 • The father received a deduction of$42S.OS for his mandatory retirement
contributions pursuant to RCW 26.19.07l(S)(c);
25 • No other deductions were verified. The father's request for a deduction for
voluntary retirement contributions is denied - see RCW 26.19.071(S)(g);

9 (a). Said income is based upon the "Full time earnings al lhe currenl ra/e of

10
• No other income was utilized for child support purposes;
11 • The mother does not rcpon or demonstrate retirement deductions or other credits.
• The mother's monthly income taxes and other deductions were based upon
12 married filing separately (1) - See Child Suppon Worksheets.
• Net monthly income= $2,990.13
13
• Proportionate share of income: 30o/o
14
Petitioner/Father's fncome: The father presented accurate pay stub information through
15
September 15 1h 2014 and accurate historical taxable income for 2013. Utilizing the year lo date
16
income reponed on his pay stubs was an accurate representation of his monthly income for 2014.
17
19 through August 23n1 2014 and accurate earnings for 2013. However; I find the mother to be
by the employer - if it is less than 40 hours per week and so stated by policy. In this case there
24
was no representation to that fact. Therefore, the court is required to impute income to a

7 any standard for "significant residential time". Under the Residential Credit Formula,

15 household. The respondent mentions State ex rel. Sigler v. Sigler, 85 Wn. App. 329, 932 p.2d
t6 710 ( 1997). Although the case is more noted for "not allowing the residential credit lo noncustodial

18
·111 the revised order of child support the court stated the reason far the deviation was
19 that the.father had the child 40.5 percent of the time. The evidence does support a finding
rhat the child spent that amount of time with the father. The State argues that the court
20 did not list any facts which indicate haw much the father spends an the child when she is
in his care which would justify the reduction in support. The court does fail to enter such

RCW 26.19.075(1)(d) Residential schedule. The coun may deviate from the standard calculation if the child
23 spends a significant amount of time with the parent who is obligated to make a suppon transfer payment. The coun
may not deviate on that basis iflhc deviation will result in insufficient funds in the household receiving the support
24 to meet the basic needs of the child or if the child is receiving temporary assistance for needy families. When
determining the amount of the deviation, the coun shall consider evidence concerning the increased expenses to a
25 parent making suppon transfer payments re.suiting from the significant amount of time spent with that parent and
shall consider the decreased expenses, if any, to the party receiving the support resulting from the significant amount
of time the child spends with the parent making the support transfer payment.

findings. and gives no indications how the decrease was calcu/a!ed. Although Mr. Sigler
s!Cl/es how much money he spends on Kristina while she is in his care, the .findings and
2
conclusions emered by the judge do no/ reflect this. Thus, the deviation.fai/sfi1r this
3
rea.wn, as well as/or noncompliance with RCW 26.19.075(/)(d). 9
4
In the instant case, the mother's actual net income is approximately $2,700.00 (without imputing
5
income). Her reported expenses are approximately $3,000. The respondent is married, however;
6
7
there is no evidence of income reported to the new husband. In fact, the joint tax return, for
8 2013, indicates a community "adjusted gross income" of $36,000. When considering the
9 financial welfare of the child, I felt it important to also consider the number of parties in
10
respondent's household that she is responsible for; as well as her own financial circumstances.
11
Second, there is no evidence (even after thoroughly considering her financial declaration) the
12
reduced hours that Lauren spends with her will reduce her overall expenses. On the other hand,
13
the father's net income is approximately $6,900. His reported expenses of approximately
14
15 $3,600.00; include Lauren's tuition. Using the same analysis, I could not reasonably fmd the
16 increased time with Lauren resulted in an increase in his reported expenses. When examining his
17 linancial declaration, I see no significant increase to his "Food and Supplies'', the "Children"
18
category or the more basic expenses such as his mortgage and utility payments. Clearly, the
19
greatest "child" expense is Lauren's tuition, which he agreed to cover 100%; provided Lauren
20
continued to attend the school of his choice. Because the father purposefully agreed to pay
21
I 00% Qf this cost, I was compelled to eliminate that expense as a justification for a deviation. In
22
23 final analysis, a trial court is required to enter written findings of fact supported by the evidence,

Issue: Dctcnnine whether or not to allocate or apportion to each parent a responsibility to pay

for educational costs, sports and other extracurricular expenses for the child?
12
13 Award: The father will pay for 100% of the tuition cost associated with Lauren attending Arch

The parties will continue to pay for "other expenses" not included in the transfer payment

pursuant to the terms set forth below:

The petitioner/father shall pay 70% and the respondent/mother 30% (each parent's

• Educational: Those expenses generally required by the school, which include,
21
graduation expenses, ASB dues, mandatory field trips, necessary equipment
22 (calculators, etc.) school &JlOrt fees;
23 • Soorts (outside school) and Other Activity Expenses: These expenses must be
agreed to in writing (email/phone texting) before either party is obligated
24 financially to pay his/her proportional share.
25
Payments shall be made to the provider of the service. If one parent pays the other
3
Findings: Extracurricular Activity Expenses: The court favors agreements of the parties.
4
Lauren is currently in sports and ouL~ide school activities. It is incumbent upon the parents to
5
6 communicate about Lauren's best interest, which may include her participation in these
7 sports/events. Both parents should be willing to advance their child's experiences through
g
extraordinary activities, however; it should be done by agreement.
9
3.19 Uninsured Medical Expenses
10
Award: The parties will continue to each pay their proportionate share (70% to
11
12 petitioner/father and 30% to the respondent/mother) of the uninsured medical expenses incurred
13 (Ill behalf of Lauren. Such expenses will include copays, deductibles, orthodontia and all other
14
medical and/or dental expenses. Each parent shall provide/exchange medical information
15
(medical coverage card) to allow the child to obtain medical/dental services. The parents will
16
provide receipts or payment and other verification (EOB' s, etc.) to the other parent. If a paying
17
parent fails to provide verification of payment to the other parent on or before 65 days from the
18
19 service; the request for payment is deemed waived and the paying parent shall not be reimbursed.
20 Should a receipt or verification of payment be presented to the other party within 65 days from
21 service, the other party shall reimburse the paying parent within 15 days from receiving such
22
receipt or verification.
23
Attorney Fees:
24
5 Findings: 1 make no finding for intransigence. It is well settled that "a trial court may
6 consider whether additional legal fees were caused by one party's intransigence and award
7
attorney fees on that basis." In re Marriage ofGreenlee, 65 Wash.App. 703, 708, 829 P.2d
8
1120. "When intransigence is established, the financial resources of the spouse seeking the
9
award are irrelevant. " In re Marriage of Morrow, 53 Wash.App. 579, 590, 770 P.2d 197
10
lI
( 1989). Intransigence includes foot dragging and obstruction, filing repeated unnecessary
12 motions, or making the trial unduly difficult end costly by one's actions. In re the Marriage of
13 Bobill I 35Wn. App. 8 (2006). The parties in this case have attempted to resolve these difficult
14
matters in good faith. Cleary, there is no indication of intransigence by previous court orders,
15
the report of the guardian or litem, or by the evidence provided to this arbitrator. I reviewed the
16
GAL report, the provided motions of counsel and suggested evidence earlier provided for
17
mediation. When comparing the petitioner's actions, the effect of his actions upon the
18
19
respondent, the expenses of the case v. the dozens of cases 10, which establish the identification
20 and clarification of intransigence, I feel strongly that no intransigence can be found This case
21 initially began as a high conflict and highly complex parenting matter - based upon the assertions
22
of the respondent pertaining to past actions of the petitioner. As a result of the nature of this
23
case, both parties have incurred attorney fees and costs well beyond their financial capabilities.

9 for assistance. The respondent's reported net income, even after receiving child support of
10
$830.90, is still significwllly less than that of the petitioner. The evidence suggests respondent's
II
husband is currently unemployed. Her financial declaration shows monthly expenses of
12
approximately $3,000.00. Second, I considered the ability of the petitioner to pay or assist with
13
the payment of the respondent's fees. I look at his financial resources. In this case I looked
14
15 primarily at his income and expenses. I find the petitioner has a resulting net income of
16 approximately $6,902.64. From this income he is required to pay respondent $830.90 for child
17 support. Additionally, he has personal monthly expenses that exceed $3,600 (including tuition of
18
$579.00)_ Based upon his financial declaration, he is left with monthly net disposable funds of
19
approximately $2,500. His fiilancial declaration does indicate other resources including $35,000
20
on deposit in banks as well as other funds. Third, I reviewed respondent's fee verification.

My Reconsideration is based upon the written submissions and evidence presented by
15
counsel received in my office up to and through December 22"d 2014.
16
18
In the Arbitration Award previously filed with this court, this arbitrator was under the
19
impression the respondent's husband, Soufyane Mehaddi, was unemployed. Therefore, it was
20
assumed the respondent, through her employment (with occasional gifts from her family) was
21
supporting the "household" including herself, the party's minor daughter, Lauren, and her
22
23 husband. As a result of the additional materials received as part of this reconsideration, it is now
24 clear respondent's husband is employed and contributing to the respondent's household. These
s Unfortunately, this arbitrator missed a key fact in this case regarding the employment of the
6 respondent's husband. As a result, my award was skewed. For this J apologize to both counsels

14 only difference is the consideration of the additional income to the respondent's household.

12
Award: The petitioner shall pay attorney fees incurred by the respondent in the amount of

14
the filing date of this award. Any remaining amount not otherwise paid will accrue at judgment
15
17 Findings: My reconsideration of this issue is based upon the respondent husband's purported
18
income. In my prior award I indicated the husband was unemployed. Cleary that was erroneous.
19
His income does require reconsideration of the respondent's household expenses and therefore
20
her "need" for purposes of attorney fees. My earlier findings are still appropriate, however; it is
21

7 This parent shall provide health insurance
[X] II coverage for the child that is available through
8 employment or is union-related even though
the cost of such coverage exceeds 25% of this

interests of the child to provide such coverage
10 despite the cost because:
5 If the childare receiving state financed medical coverage, the Division of Child
Support may enforce the responsible parent's monthly premium.
6
The parent(s) shall maintain health insurance coverage, if available for the child
7 listed in paragraph 3.1, until further order of the court or until health insurance is
no longer available through the parents' employer or union and no conversion
8 privileges exist to continue coverage following termination of employment.
9 A parent who is required under this order to provide health insurance coverage is
liable for any covered health care costs for which that parent receives direct
10 payment from an insurer.
A parent who is required under this order to provide health insurance coverage
11 shall provide proof that such coverage is available or not available within 20 days
of the entry of this order to the other parent or the Washington State Support
12 Registry if the parent has been notified or ordered to make payments to the
Washington State Support Registry.
13
If proof that health insurance coverage is available or not available is not
14 provided within 20 days, the parent seeking enforcement or the Department of
Social and Health Services may seek direct enforcement of the coverage through
15 the other parent's·employer or union without further notice to the other parent as
provided under Chapter 26.18 RCW.
16
You may have separate obligations to provide health insurance coverage for the
17 child(ren) under federal law.
19 A parent required to provide health insurance coverage must notify both the Division of
Child Support and the other parent when coverage terminates.
20
If the parents' circumstances change, or if the court has not specified how medical
21 support shall be provided, the parents' medical support obligations will be enforced as
provided in RCW 26.18.170. If a parent does not provide proof of accessible coverage
22 for the child(ren) through private insurance, a parent may be required to satisfy his or her
medical support obligation by doing one of the following, listed in order of priority:
23
Providing or maintaining health insurance coverage through the parent's employment
24 or union at a cost not to exceed 25% of that parent's basic support obligation;
3 Contributing the parent's proportionate share of a monthly premium being paid by the
other parent for health insurance coverage for the child(ren) listed in paragraph
4 3.1 of this order, not to exceed 25% of the obligated parent's basic support
obligation; or
5 Contributing the parent's proportionate share of a monthly premium paid by the state
if the child(ren) receives state-financed medical coverage through DSHS under
6 RCW 74.09 for which there is an assignment.
7 A parent seeking to enforce the obligation to provide health insurance coverage may
apply for support enforcement services from the Division of Child Support; file a motion

Show Cause re Contempt); or file a petition.

CUSTODY DECREE OR PARENTING PLAN/RESIDENTIAL SCHEDULE.
The Custody Decree/Parenting Plan/Residential Schedule was entered on March 25, 2011
at Snohomish County WA. A certified copy of the Custody Decree/Parenting Plan
/Residential Schedule to be modified is filed with or attached to this petition, if the decree
or plan to be modified was entered in another county or state.
MODIFICATION PURSUANT TO RCW 26.09.260(1), (2).
The custody decree/parenting plan/residential schedule should be modified because a
substantial change of circumstances has occurred in the circumstances of the
children or the other party and the modification is in the best interests of the
children and is necessary to serve the best interests of the children. This request is
based on the factors below.
The children have been integrated into my family with the consent of the other
parent in substantial deviation from the decree/parenting plan/residential
schedule.
The children's environment under the custody decree/parenting plan/residential
schedule is detrimental to the children's physical, mental or emotional
health and the harm likely to be caused by a change in environment is
outweighed by the advantage of a change to the children.
ADJUSTMENTS TO RESIDENTIAL PROVISIONS PURSUANT TO RCW 26.09.260(5),(8).

4 Since our divorce I have supported Jennifer in a variety of ways. I invest my interest, time
5 and money in our daughter. When Jenni fer or Lauren needed my personal involvement I have been
6 there, happily participating. When Jennifer has been irresponsible I filled the void so my daughter
7 would not suffer or go without. When they needed money beyond the child support, I have given

11 and me. As time has gone by the actual residential schedule has evolved to the present situation
12 where Lauren lives with me most of the time. Lauren has come to refer to my home as being "home"
13 in conversation. I participate in Lauren's life a great deal more than Jennifer does.

16 November 7, 2006. Our divorce settled. The agreed parenting plan established primary residential

1 parenting plan to more nearly reflect the time Lauren was spending with each of us. I agreed that
2 the previous plan bore no resemblance to what we were doing, so we agreed upon a modification
3 of the parenting plan. We each knew the parenting plan was changing in a way that we both wanted.
4 And there was something more she wanted from me also, money.
5 Part VI of the March 25, 2011 parenting plan reflects additional concerns in Jennifer's life.
6 She had developed an on line friendship with Soufyane Mchaddi, an Algerian man. Her relationship
7 with him was very important to her. Jennifer was determined to go there to meet him. She asked
8 me for the money to go to Algeria. I knew she would find a way to get there, and I wanted to protect
9 our daughter from the risks of accompanying Jenni for to Algeria to spend time with a man her
1O mother had never met. So I agreed to pay for Jennifer's trip upon the condition that Lauren would

13 plan, part 3.2 1, during the school year Lauren resides with me
2 It is the only grade school she has ever known, attending Kindergarten, first grade, second grade
3 and now third grade at St. Mary Magdalen. She earns good grades. She gets near-perfect spelling
5 Lauren has extra-curricular activities. She developed an interest in track and soccer. She
6 loves in soccer. Some of her classmates play on her teams, strengthening their bonds. She plays
7 year round. My work schedule allows me to be available in the allernoons, which allows me to
8 coach Lauren's school team. She excels, playing Washington Rush Soccer, on a select soccer team
9 above her age. She competes as an equal and she loves it.
11 Lauren spends 73% of her waking hours with me. Sec Attachment 2: a copy of calendars
12 showing the pattern of Lauren spending significant time with me over the course of2013. Through
13 the end of August 2013 Lauren has spent overnight in my care 51 % of the time. Additionally, she
14 has been with me on 55 other days in the allernoons and evenings. I pick her up from school and she

2 Afternoons. Lauren loves soccer. 1take her. Lauren has homework. She does it at my house. The
3 second grade teacher knew by her homework which parent she was with the night before. The other
4 key is that the time with me did not diminish in the summer months. Jennifer was unemployed
5 during those months, but her extr.i free time did not increase her time with Lauren.
6 Lauren is integrated into my home, as she is accustomed to her routines at my house. She
7 has her own bedroom, she knows the neighborhood and has friends here. She has extended family
8 nearby here as my mother, my father, my aunt, my brother and I all reside in Everett. She calls my
9 house "home." She has other tern1s for her mother's condo. She says "with Mom ... " or similar ways
10 of referring to her mother's home. When Jennifer wants time with Lauren she calls to arrange it
11 with me, even if it is during days the parenting plan would have Lauren be with her.
12 6. DETRIMENTAL CHANGES
LAUREN SHOULD OFFICIALLY RESIDE WITH ME
13
Recently, things have changed detrimentally at her mother's home. It is harmful to her.
14
am very worried about my daughter. Jennifer Mehaddi has neglected our daughter's medical needs,
15
discussed immediately below. There has also been domestic violence in Jennifer's home 1. Things
16
have changed so badly that Lauren should no longer reside primarily with Jenn lier. I should be the
17
custodial parent.
18
A. Medical Neglect
19
For the past several years I have taken Lauren to most of her doctor's appointments and to
20
all of her dental appointments. The custom became that I take care of the routine medical needs.
21
On June 23 Lauren injured her wrist when she ran her scooter into a tree. It is just one of the
22
things that happens occasionally when kids play. The problem arises from the response to it.
23
Jennifer took Lauren to a walk-in clinic for a doctor to diagnose and prescribe suitable care. After
24
checking in, Jennifer became impatient and decided to leave the clinic rather than wait for Lauren
25

1 to be seen. She just got up and left! There was no good reason to leave before Lauren had a chance
2 to be seen by a doctor.
3 When I next had Lauren she told me of her accident. Lauren told me that she had not seen
4 a doctor and that they had walked out of the walk in clinic. And she told me her wrist still hurt. So
5 I took her to the walk-in clinic. They took an X-Ray which showed a broken bone in her wrist,
6 treated with a soft cast/splint. Sec Scaled Health Care Record. I told Jennifer about the diagnosis
7 and asked why she had left the clinic. She responded that at the time Lauren's wrist seemed to hurt
8 a little less than when they went to the clinic, so she decided lo leave. When Lauren needs medical
9 attention she should gel it. That is why she is on my insurance with no co-pay.
10 When I complained to Jennifer she was angry with me that I had obtained medical attention
11 for our daughter. Jennifer then criticized me for taking Lauren to a doctor without her permission
12 because we have joint decision making. I was not going to leave my daughter in pain. Yet Jennifer
13 had the audacity to say that I could not obtain medical care without discussing it with her. She was
14 concerned that she might be criticized, but not concerned about our daughter. Belter Lauren should
15 sec a doctor when she might not need lo than to not see a doctor when she does need to. Jennifer
17 B. Domestic Violence
18 Jennifer Mehaddi resides with her husband, Soufyane Mehaddi'. They have only been
19 residing together since he immigrated in April 2013. The process of Americanization has had its
20 di mculties. It is scary that domestic violence is one of the difficulties. In just four months there
21 have already been multiple incidents of domestic violence in their home. Residing in that
22 environment is harmful to Lauren. I am concerned about two issues relating to Lauren. One is the
23
4
24 I want the court to know that I am not motivated by Jennifer's choice of a husband or
her relationship with him. It is no surprise that there may be frustrations and even anger settling
25 into a new country and that may be the source of Soufyane Mehaddi's behavior. In my limited
interaction with him I have found him to be a pleasant person and respectful to those he comes in
26 contact with. My concern is only with my daughter's environment.

risk that she may be assaulted. Nearly as frightening is that she has witnessed and likely will again
2 witness domestic violence. Domestic violence is a cycle that must not be passed on to Lauren.
5 Jn July Lauren made some comments making me wonder whether there might be domestic
6 violence and a lot of yelling in her mother's home. I asked Jennifer, and she told me there is no
9 On Wednesday July 31, 2013 Jennifer dropped Lauren off to me, and discussed a recent
1O incident where Soufyane had become upset with Jenni fer and hit or pushed her forehead hard with
11 the heel of his hand. She said she was trying to get Soufyane to leave voluntarily, and she asked
12 me to take Lauren full time "until further no/ice." or course I agreed. I would not leave Lauren
13 into a violent situation. I asked about safety at her home. Even though we are divorced I was
16 On August 7 there was another incident between Jennifer and Soufyane. Jennifer called
17 911. I was worried, and obtained a CD copy of the call and had a transcript typed. See Attachment
16 3. Soufyanc Mchaddi threatened my eight year old daughter when he raised his ann at her in anger.
19 I learned of the incident because Jennifer called me and asked me to take Lauren until further notice
21 "Until further notice" turned out to be only three days. Lauren stayed with me until 9:00
22 p.m. on Saturday August 3 when Jennifer and Jennifer's 11 year old niece Alexa came to pick up
23 Lauren. Alexa told me about the same July 31 incident. I took Jennifer aside and expressed concern
24 about Lauren being in that home with Soufyane having anger problems. She responded by telling
25 me that Souryane would never do anything with other people present. She told me that Soufyane
26 would not act up in front of the kids. Jennifer wanted to have a sleep over with Alexa and Lauren.

8 There have been a series of communications. Jennifer now claims to have no concern at all
9 about domestic violence and she denies the significance of being hit herself and the threatening
11 The substance of what Jenni fer has communicated is that there is violence in her home, she
12 knows the patterns of behavior, that he will not do it in front of outsiders. For whatever reason, she
13 has chosen to remain in a violent environment and to keep our daughter in it.
2 want to be sure that our daughter is not being introduced to domestic violence, essentially being
3 groomed to be a victim. I wanted lo talk to Jennifer about what our daughter is experiencing. She
4 did not want lo talk about it at all just between us sol requested mediation.
5 On August 20 I received the copy of her 911 call. I immediately requested mediation and
6 paid my portion of the cost for mediation. Jennifer has not responded. I wanted to assure that when
7 our daughter needs medical care she will gel it. The insurance will cover the cost, all we need to do
8 is invest our time and concern. I also wanted to reach agreements about who would be supervising
9 our daughter. I had hopes that some counseling might occur for the domestic violence, and I had
10 hopes that we might assure that Lauren is with me during times Jennifer is not present. Jennifer has
11 still not responded to the August 20 request for mediation. See Attachment 5.
12 8. RECENT PARENTING
13 As discussed below, there has been a substantial change of circumstances since 2011 such
14 that a new parenting plan should be entered. The new parenting plan should establish that Lauren

18 moving to my home full time and there would be benefit from that move. Lauren is fully integrated
19 into my home and accustomed to the structure and routines I provide. She is peaceful, busy and
22 In this case many of the same facts that establish that there is adequate cause for modification
23 of the parenting plan also establish the basis for limiting factors in the parenting plan.

2 I have taken Lauren to every dental appointment she has ever had. I have invited Jennifer
3 to come also. Jennifer has attended one (I), and on that occasion Lauren insisted that I go with her

5 taken Lauren to all her routine physical exams and assured that she has all her immunizations. I am
6 happy to be the parent who attends to our daughter's routine medical needs.
8 Jennifer Mehaddi does not consistently perform parenting functions. Over time, Jennifer has
9 taken less and less interest in our daughter. Jennifer Mehaddi has been withdrawing from Lauren's
10 life. Lauren expects that her mother will not attend school plays and school activities, to not be at
11 soccer games, to not auend her baptism, confirmation and first communion. To fill that void I have
12 stepped in to be the hands on parent. Sometimes, her First Communion for example, another mother

• On July 20, 2013 Lauren had soccer games on her mother's weekend. I
8 picked Lauren up at Jennifer's condo for the game. Jennifer was not working
and was home when I picked up our daughter, but she did not go watch our
9 daughter play.
• On August 2 through 5, 2013, Lauren had soccer games on her mother's
10 weekend. Jennifer did not bother to attend. Lauren stayed with me Friday
night through Saturday at 9:00 p.m. Saturday, Lauren and I went to the first
11 day of the soccer tournament. Jennifer picked her up at my house at 9:00
p.m. Saturday, then dropped her off again at my house at 6:00 a.m. on
12 Sunday short on sleep. I took Lauren to the rest of the tournament. Jennifer
again did not attend her game, even though she did not work that day.
13 • Another soccer tournament August 23-25, 2013. Jennifer did not attend any
of her games.
14 • Other Activities: Religious Upbringing. A familiar pattern of
15 non-involvement: For all the many events of the process of initiating Lauren
16 into full membership in the church Jenni fer was not involved in the
17 preparations, she provided none of the transportation, and she did not attend
8 The facts concerning detriment to Lauren in her mother's home also establish limiting factors
9 for the new parenting plan. Much of the same evidence provides support for each legal issue. In
1o establishing the new parenting plan I believe that the following limiting factors arc present:
20 Lauren docs not use the term "home" to refer to her mother's place. It refers to my home.
21 Lauren makes comments showing that she would prefer to simply stay in my home. My own
22 opinion is that she gets more positive attention in my home than in her mother's.

6 Jennifer's mother attended and stayed through the entire ceremony. Jennifer had something more
7 important to do. I could understand her disinterest if Jennifer had simply announced that she is not
8 Catholic and did not want to participate and stayed away. But we agreed that Lauren would be
9 raised as a Catholic. We put Lauren in a Catholic school by agreement. Baptism is a crucial part
10 of being a Roman Catholic. So is First Communion. The two sacraments together establish that she
11 is fully a member of the church. To be at our daughter's First Communion and walk out of it sends

There is too much bad judgment here. Jennifer has no understanding of the damage to

Lauren that comes from poor choices, such as losingjobs, financial difficulty and domestic violence.

10. BENEFIT OF NEW PARENTING PLAN
2 With me Lauren has a full life with the parent who is involved in all aspects of that full life.
3 Like most third graders, she goes to school providing both academic and religious education, she
4 does homework, she plays, she participates in organized sports, she has friends. I am with her. She
5 relies upon me. I provide her with the love and support and encouragement she needs. With me she
7 She has a loving, stable, consistent and nurturing relationship with me. I attend to her daily
8 needs and to her other interests. I help her maintain and develop friendships with her peers.
9 Her opportunities to develop into a productive and happy adult are more certain residing with
12 The sum of this history is that Jennifer Mehaddi is an irresponsible parent. Her
13 irresponsibility is demonstrated a number of ways. I have chosen to rescue Lauren from Jennifer's
14 irresponsible ways.
15 Her irresponsibility is demonstrated by her choices.
16 Jennifer Mehaddi chose to not participate in her daughter's routine medical care and again
17 by her choice to not even stick around for her daughter to get medical care.
18 Jennifer Mehaddi chose to overlook her husband's violence.
19 Jennifer Mchaddi chose to send Lauren to school without lunches.
20 Jennifer Mehaddi chose to have a big screen television and to have her dog groomed, and
21 an expensive car, but to not have money for groceries or gasoline.
22 Jennifer Mehaddi chose to not be attentive to Lauren's clothing, sending her to school on
23
cold days without a coat.
24 Jennifer Mehaddi chose to be uninvolved in Lauren's education.
25 Jennifer Mehaddi chose to be uninvolved in Lauren's sporting activities.

DECLARATION OF JENNIFER

Respondent.
RTFE IN RESPONSE TO MOTION
FOR ADEQUATE CAUSE AND
14
TEMPORARY ORDER
IS
My name is Jennifer Mehaddi and I am the respondent in this case. I am over 18 years ol
16
17
and am competent to testify as a witness in this matter. I was previously manied to the petitioner
18 Andy Rife end we have one child together, Lauren Emily. I married my husband Soufyan
19 Mehaddi in June of201 l and he moved here in April of this year.
20
I have read Andy's motion and declarations end am very troubled at how he is twisting th
21
tmth and is flat out lying in many areas. Andy would like this court to believe that I simply don'
22
23 care about our daughter anymore and that I would prefer to not spend wiy time with our daughter
24 That is not true. He would also like the court to believe that I have bad judgment and make terribl
2S
decisions for Law'CJl when she is in my care. That is not tme either.
26
Andy is taking advantage of one very stressful day where I called the police and he

tu med it into two sepw11te incidents of "DV". There was one incident. I dropped Lauren off a
2
Andy's house once, not twice as be claims. There was no "violence". The police came an
3
investigated and no one was arrested because it was just a verbal dispute. I am very sensitive t
4
s DV, probably too sensitive because of being a victim of domestic violence during my marriage wi
6 Andy. I will discuss the DV allegation in detail below.
7 The only legitim11le issue that Andy raised is that we have not been following the curren
8
parent plan. That may support a minor modification. The calendars that Andy provided are not
9
accurate picture of what we have been doing as he has exaggerated many of the days and times Iha
10
11 he ha.~ had her. Andy has badgered me to change the parenting plan since the day we original!
12 entered it. He wore me down over time and I agreed to the first modification. Since then I hav
13
given up minimally more time with Lauren, nowhere near the amount of time Andy claim
14
however. I regret modifying our original parenting and believe that what needs to happen is for us t
go back and actually follow the parenting plan that is currently in place.
16
17 Andy kepi pushing and I finally agreed to adjust tl1e schedule to allow Andy to have on
18 midweek overnight and Thursday to Sunday morning every other weekend. Currently, Andy h
19
Laure11 eve1y other Wednesday to Sunday and Wednesday and Thursday overnight in the off week
20
Andy has really been pressuring me to agree to a 50/50 parenting plan and I have strenuous!>
21
22
resisted because I believe that it is not in Lauren's best interest to reside with Andy any more th
23 she currently does. Andy has Lauren sleep with him in his bed every night she is with him and h
24 requires her to wear "pull ups" at night. He treats her like she is three, not nine.
25
Andy has threatened me over and over and over again that if I don't agree to a 50/50 pla
26
that he will try to take Lauren away from me. I do not believe that it would be in Lauren's bes

interest and have lherefore not agreed. He is now following through on lhose threats. TI1ere is n
2
adequate cause lo modify our parenting plan and his pelitio11 and his motion should be denied an
3
lhat we should actually follow our cummt parenting plan.
4
s Background
6 Our divorce was finalized in 2006 after a very lengthy and contenlious period of litigalion
1 During our divorce, Andy was forced to complete Domestic Batterer's Treatment Program. Ou
8
Final Parenling Plan had oul' daughler Lauren residing with me the maj01ity of the lime, include
9
191 rcslriclions against Andy and gave me sole decision making. I think thal it is important for thi
10
II court to be aware of that history. It is inlel'esling that Andy left thal part oul. This motion an
17 I did agree to lei Andy have more time, he would make is seem like he was doing me a favor b
18 picking Lauren up or dropping her off. This has become a huge issue because when he does "do m
19
a favor" by picking up Lauren he keeps her way too long. Instead of bringing her back to me, h
20
will make her dinner and do her homework wilh her. That isn't doing me a favor, that is And
21
encroaching into my time wilh her and then trying to say lhat I am not involved.
22
23 Things had been going prelty smoothly between us and he started bringing up modifying ou
24 parenting plan again. I was very resislant to this and said no over and OVCI' again. He continue
25
asking me and told me that we should just enter a new plan lhat reflected the schedule that we h
26
been following. I sought out advice and everyone I asked told me that I should say no to ·

because he really hadn't changed. I was very leery of entering a new pal'enting plan that remove
2
the . I 91 reslrictions against Andy. He promised that things would continue to go smoothly and
3
eventually acquiesced to his constant pl'essuring.
4
I had met my husband online in 201 land was plaruling on going to Algeria to visit him.
6 did not want Andy to try and say that he had more time with Lauren because I was going away fo
1 two weeks so we added the language under section IV of the agreed parenting plan. I also wanted I
8
ensure Lauren's safety while Soufyane was visiting here the first time so I made BJTBngements wit
9
Andy for her to stay with him. It was my suggestion that she stay with Andy for this time. Sectio
10
II IV is very clear that that arrangement only applied during that one two week period when Soufuan
12 was visiting that first time. Andy is now tl'ying to make it look like I was bargaining time with o
13
child for a plane ticket to Algeria. That is preposterous and the thought of that makes me ill.
14
thought that adding that language would protect me. I never considered taking Lauren to Algeri
with me. I didn't use an attorney when we modified our parenting plan. I now wish I had.
16
17 Allegations
23 portion ofthe facts here. What he doesn't see doesn't exist to him.
24 It is trne that Andy has devoted time, energy and money in our daughter. That is wha
25
parents do. It is not true that I have not done the same. We both do this. Andy is incredibly push
26
and never lets things go. Andy's family is Catholic. Mine is not. It was ve1y impo11ant to Andy tha

Lauren attend Catholic school. It is so important that he offered to pay the entire cost. It i

inappropriate for Andy to push for Catholic school, volunteer to pay the costs so that I will agre

6 It was also very important to Andy that Lauren participate in the Catholic religion. Again
7 my family isn't Catholic. I have no religious preference. He kept pushing and I finally agreed Iha
8
she could pru1icipate. I had no idea that there was so much involved with being Catholic. I did no

know that there would be so many events, practices, classes, ceremonies etc. or I would not hav

II agreed. The Catholic Chmch has never felt that welcoming to me and I do not feel comfortabl
12 there. This should not be held against me. Nonetheless, I do attend many of the ceremonies to

supportive of Lauren. I did attend her First Commwtlon. Soufyane and I both attended. It was hi

first social event in the U.S. as he had arrived just a few days before. Andy is not being truthfu
15

17 Lauren started playing soccer a few years ago. Andy has always been a soccer fanatic. H
18 went to college on a soccer scholarship and continued to play soccer recreationally until he hurt ltl
19
knee recently. It was realty important to Andy that Lauren play "select" soccer. Select soccer i
20
very expensive, is year round and is a huge time conunitment. I know that Lauren is good at soccer
21
22
but year round soccer is just too much for our nine year old. I do participate with Lauren in soccer
23 but it is not possible for me to pa11icipate as much as Andy does. My work schedule is not
24 flexible as ltls. I was Ullemployed for pm1 of the summer mid I honestly could not afford the gas t

drive her to all of the tournaments. This cannot be held against me and is no reflection of Ill}

This is another situation where Andy pushes and pushes for something he wants, offers to pay t
9
costs until I finally agree and then wants to punish me for it. This is coercive and controllin
IO
II behavior.
12 Contrwy to Andy's statements, Lauren does not live with him the majmity of the time.
13 is with me the majority of the time. Andy does frequently offer to pick Lauren up for me becnus
14
he gets off of work earlier than me and he wants to take her to her soccer practice. He does he1

homework with her after school and before practice. I do not need Andy to do Lauren's homcwo

I hate to tell Andy this, but when Lauren is with me she refers to my place as "home" an
22

ll DV Allegation
12 I nm very sensitive to domestic violence. Any hint of ii and I react. That is because And
13
was very, very abusive to me dw'ing our short marriage. Andy is right that I know about domesti
14
violence and I learned about domestic violence from living with him. He was both physically an
IS
emotionally abusive. There were many times that the police were called and many more times wh
16
17 he would become enraged and would physically assault me that the police weren't called. And}
18 was charged two separate times for being abusive towards me. It was a miserable and volatil
19
relation.ship and I would never put myself in that situation again.
20
My husband Soufyane is not a violent man. He moved to the U.S. to reside with me i
21
22
April, 2013. We have been learning to live together and build our lives together. I lost my job an
23 was unemployed over the summer at the same time as Soufyane was looking for work. Laure
24 really likes Soufyane and enjoys spending time with ltim one on one, but when the three of us
25
together, sometimes she acts out. It is my understanding that this is pretty common when famili
26
are first "blending". Lauren is used to having me to herself. She was being disrespectful Iowa

Soufyane and making sma11 remarks to him.
2
August 7111, the day I called 911, was the last day of Ramadan. Soufyane could not eat
3
smoke cigarettes or even drink waler from sun up to sun down. We had been arguing over !inane
4
s for the past week on and off and we argued about money that day too. Soufyane was not able t
6 look for work during Ramadan which caused him to feel conflicted. This was the first time he ha
7 been through Ramadan alone, with no one else practising with him and eating a meal with him afte
8
sundown. It was a very hard time. I should not have called 911, but I am very sensitive and ma}
9
even be suffering from PTSD from my experience with Andy. I would never permit anyone t

II
harm me or Lauren. The police came to the house, but no one was arrested because we were jus
was only with Andy for a day when I picked her up to visit her cousin. I brought Lauren and het
15
cousin back to Andy's because they wanted to spend time together and it was Andy's time to hav
16
17 Lauren. Andy claimed that I dropped Lauren off to him twice after two separate incidents. That i
18 another lie. The incident he describes as the 'first incident' was ao argument that I had wi
19
Soufyane, about finances in the garage. Lauren's cousin was there and saw Soufyane put his hand ·

Andy something and Andy is again ttying lo twist it to his advantage. I never told Andy about Iha

24 Things have gotten much better at home. Soufyane and I have a great relationship and he i

Lauren wears a uniform to school. Andy and his family provide the wlifonns. Andy sai
4
that he would pay ell the costs associated with private school that includes the uniforms. I purches
5
6 lots of non-school clothing. I was going to purchase Lauren's first communion dress online, but the
7 Andy's mom decided that she would take her shopping and buy the dress herself. This is anothe1
8
ridiculous allegation and has nothing to do with parenting.
9
Our daughter is a very intelligent, independent and active nine year old who I encoul'8ge t
10
II
start being more self-reliant. Nine year olds are old enough to comb their own hair. Lauren ha
12 beautiful long, thick hair. It is hard for her to wash it and comb it herself. I help her rinse out h
13 hairs during bath/shower time and I help her comb and brush the back of her hair as well. It is t
14
Iha! I don't "give her a bath". She is nine years old now. I send her to take a bath and then I check i
IS
on her and help her with her hair. She practices good hygiene in my home and is always clean an
16
17 presentable. Once at a soccer game, Lauren wanted Andy's mother to put her hair in a ponytail an
18 not me, because she puts the ponytail up higher on her head than I do. The notion that that make
19
me less of a parent is again, ridiculous.
20
One of the issues that I have with Andy's parenting style is that he infantilizes our nine yew
21
old daughter.' He still treats her like she is a baby and he does everything for her. She still slee
22
23 with him in his bed when she is at his house. He also makes her wear a "pull up" to bed at his house
24 Titls is very demeaning and insulting to her. She hates it and doesn't ll.llderstnnd why he can't s

previously that J am a bad mother because I don't let her sleep with me anymore. Nine year old
2
shouldn't be sleeping with their parents every night.
3
The idea that I have willfully abandoned ow· daughter is so offensive and again, ridiculous
4
s I love Lauren more than anything. I am very involved in her life. I agreed to the Catholic school
6 Catholic religion and select soccer because they were important to Andy and now he is trying to us
7 those activities to try and push me out of Lauren's life. It is not physically possible for me t

participate in all of the events that go along with these choices. On my evenings with Lauren
9
soccer doesn't end until 7:30p.m. It is not possible for me to get off of work and get Lauren fed an

II to prnctiee in time so Andy volimtcers to pick her up. I do attend most of Lauren's soccer games.
12 would rather Lauren not do soccer and instead pursue some other interest that doesn't involve
13
many days per week and that has actual seasons. These activities do not mean that I l1av
14
abandoned our child. IL means that she has too many activities. The statement about Lauren bein
IS
the only little girl whose mother doesn't participate is ridiculous. I do participate. I am just no

judgmental. Again, Andy is the one who taught me about domestic violence, not Soufyane.
2
As far as not picking out the first communion dress or attending nil of the church rehearsals
3
practices, ceremonies etc. goes. This is not true. I have not gone to every single thing, but I do go
4
s many of them. Again, I am not Catholic. I agreed that she could be raised Catholic because And
6 kept pressing the issue, but I never agreed to be Catholic myself. This shouldn't be held against me.
7 I am not financially irresponsible. It really is wonderful that Andy hasn't had to wony abou
8
any financial matters, but unfortunately many other people in the world do. Andy does pay chil
9
support and her health insurance premiums. He is court ordered to do so within our child suppo1
10
II
order. He voluntarily pays for Lauren's private school costs and select soccer costs. Andy did pa
12 for my dog's leg surgery and it was about $1,300.00. My dog Remy stayed with Andy when Laure
13 and I were in Disney World. While we were gone Andy caused Remy to tear his ACL and neede
14
the expensive surgery. Andy paid for it because he was the one who caused my dog to be irtjured
IS
He did loan me money for groceries while I was briefly unemployed and I paid him back. He

17 never paid my PUD bill and he has ne\'Cr met me in a grocery store. If I had known that Andy

20
Andy is delusional about his relationship with Lauren. We both have value as her parent
21
and she loves both of us. Contrary to what Andy states, she loves spending time in both of ou

Subject: Fwd: Lauren exchanges
An email I sent a while back when he refused to bring her back to be at noon, saying 4pm instead when that has
not been our agreement or what we have been following.
We agreed a long time ago that you would keep Lauren an extra night dnring the week because
of transportation and her school. I would never have agreed if you weren't bringing her back
earlier on Sunday like we agreed. I remember it very clearly. I said yes to the extra night, BUT I
said only if you bring her back early on Sunday so I don't lose extra time with her. So for the last
several years, we have been doing that. Now you are saying its a lie? You told Lauren without
my consent that she could stay longer and play there? That is not how co parenting works. T
talked with my mom also and she knows and remembers that we had an agreement about Lanren
coming home early.
You are so dead set on getting 50/50 custody and not paying child support that you are jerking
me around and taking control and changing things on a whim to suit you without following our
agreement or even the parenting plan. Do NOT talk to me about soccer, her school fees or the car
loan. That has NOTHING to do with child support or getting more custody.
Since you refuse to bring her back early on Sunday and you are being abusing the conflict and
making your own rules, Thave no choice but to follow the parenting plan as it states exactly. You
will get her I night a week and we can talk about it further in mediation when I can afford to pay
the fee. You will not continue doing this to me, or her.
Also from now on, we will be signing something about what time she is picked up and dropped
off. You have an agenda and it has nothing to do with Lauren.
In a separate issue - the car loan down payment you loaned me nt the credit union will be caught
up in full by mid October. I can only do it in increments. Again, this is a separate issue and has
nothing to do with lauren, the exchanges, custody or child support.
I

My name Is Carol Holland and I am Jennifer Mehaddl's mother. Lauren Rife Is very well care by her
mother, Jennifer Mehaddl and her father Andrew Rife. She also enjoys a good relallonshlp with her step
dad Soufyane Mehaddl. I think Lauren Is a very bright and well adjusted little girl that has grown up
living with her mother full time and visiting her father part time.
As a parent and grandparent with three grandchildren I know that people have different parenting
styles. Jennifer Is nurturing and loving with her daughter Lauren. She's a certified medical assistant and
I see how careful she Is with Lauren's health. Over the years I have attended medical appts with Jennifer
and Lauren and also, on occasion taken care of Lauren when she has been home from school sick.
Lauren does not go to daycare during the summer or after school. She alternates with different sides of
the family during summer break. Our next door neighbor has an In ground swimming pool that Lauren
has been Invited to swim In with their granddaughter and our other grandchildren many times. She's
even shown off her swimming ability to Andrew one day when he picked her up from my house. I take
her to school several times a week or her paternal grandmother does. When I pick her up or she Is
dropped off at my house for school she always Is dean and has her school supplies/lunch. On school
picture day this fall she had a fresh bath and her hair blow dried and straightened special by her mother
early In the morning. After school she Is ellher picked up by me, her paternal grandmother, her father
on his residential days or soccer practice days, her Aunt Lisa or her mother. ••Note: over the 3+ years
that Lauren has attended private school she has had a few tardies. I do not know the dates but If that Is
the case and I am responsible on those days the tardy would only be by a few minutes after the last bell.
Many times I have had to drop my other grandchildren off at publlc school on the way to Lauren's
school. Weather, road construction & traffic can cause delays.
From my observation the last few years Jennifer and Andrew have maintained a congenial attitude
regarding Lauren. Just before Lauren's 'If' birthday Jennifer's dog Remy became suddenly ill and taken
to the vet on an emergency. Andy loved Remy and rushed over to the vet's office. Remy was In Jennifer
and Andrew's life before Lauren was born. The dog did not survive and Jennifer and Andy chose to tell
Lauren together at my home. It was a horrible time and the vet bill a $1000+. Andy offered to pay It
though he was refunded the amount because the vet made some errors In treatment. On Lauren's e••
birthday they gave Lauren a big birthday party with her soccer friends. Andy rented a blow-up jump
house and Jennifer provided cake and pizza. My husband and I live on an acre with a huge yard and they
asked to have Lauren's party at our home. We were present at the party.
Andrew has a good Income and can be very generous. He grew up playing soccer and went to college on
a soccer scholarship and I can see that he provides Lauren everything she needs to play soccer. I have
seen him be over focused on her ability to play and calling out to her on the field, yelling at her for her
performance. I have often wondered if he Is look Ing et Lauren like a mini version of him and living his
soccer years again.
I believe Andrew Is not happy that Jennifer Is remarried and Lauren has a step-father as he has
mentioned many times to me and my husband that he does not think It will last. This past summer In a
\
discussion on my front porch about different cultures, religions and how men treat women Andy.told
·me It took him five different tries and five different schools to complete his DV course before he finally
got It 1told Andy that yes, I remember when he went to multiple DV programs. I told Andy that we· as
people cannot discriminate against a religion ..
Jennifer's husband.has been a guest in· our home many, m·any times since he arrived here. He Is always
pollte and helpful. Soufyane comes fr.om a very large family with 10 slblllngs and has dozens of nephews
and nieces. He"s an active guy. and Is good ~t playing sports &)(box with not on_iy Lauren but our other
·two grandchlldreri. I've never seen him be rude or mean to anyone.
On Ftlday, October 11'" I stopped in at Lauren's school to pick up documents In a sealed envelope for
Jennifer at her request. Whlle waiting for the envelope AndreW's father Jim Rife came In and stood
behind me In llne at.the reception window. Jim told me that he wanted my husband and I to know that
he was not happy \YI.th \Yhat Andrew was doing and said he told his son he would not be Involved. He
wanted to see Lauren's parents Bel along. When the envelope.was handed to me·Jlm said he was at the
school to pick up the same thing.
This has been Lauren's weekend with h_er mother Jennifer, I've seen them together several times In the
last couple of days and Lauren has been particularly attache_d to her mother.· She usually Is sharing a
chair wlth'her mom or hanging on her but this weekend she was sticking to her like glue. She senses the.
stress. I love my daughter and my granddaughter very much arid I kriow Lauren loves her mother ~~d
her fat!Jer both very much •.
Tod_ay Is Monday, October 141• and Jennifer's residential day. I plcked Lauren up from sch()ol and also
my othe.r gra~ddaughter and on our way home Lauren says guess what? I, and I said what?, then. Laur!m
says she was busy doing her math ·in class when she looked up and saw her Dad lookIng at her through
the door to her classroom. I tho11shi she was pretending so I sald,-.''Leuren what would your Dad be
doing afschool" end she said he d11es It a lo.t just comes to the school to look at her''. She said when
.she looked up at him he looked back and left. This Is weird, If he wanted to know If she was In school all
·he has to do Is make ii call. The school yard a.nd bulJdlng !Ire secured so there are no safety Issues;
The sudden declaration of Anllrew Rife thai)enrilfer Is unfit and neglectful as a parent IS not only
.Inaccurate It Is uncalled for. Andy. has been pushing and pushing Jennifer to agree to:glve him more time
with. Lauren. His pushing hes turned In-to.threats to Jennifer that he wlll irv and take.Lauren away from
her. That seems to be ex_e_ctly :what he Is doing. He didn't g_et his way and now he Is punishing her.
As I'mentioned above, Andy makes a good IMng and can bevervgenerous financially. He wanted
Laurent to _go to private sChool end agreed to pay all of the costs associated with that. He also wanted
Lauren to play select soccer which Is very expensive and time consum.lng. He.also agreed to pay all the
costs associated with that too. That doesn't mean that he Is a better or a more flt parent. It just means
that he has more money, I have.read his deciaratlon and the things that he.wrote are cr!Jel. e~d untr.ue
and they show that Andy reallv ha~ no respect for Jennifer as Lauren's mother. His statements also
·Show that he has'no real understanding ofY'!hat Is In Lauren's best Interest. Jennlrer·ls a wonderful,
.attentive and Involved.mother.

My name is Lisa Holland and Jellllifer Mehaddi is my sister. Lauren Rife Is my niece. I am
writing this declaration in regards to the current custody dispute between my sister and her ex
husb1111d, Andrew Rife.
When J learned that Andrew filed this motion to take primary custody away from my sister, I
was shocked aud disturbed. I've read the paperwork and his reasons fur wanting to change the
parenting plan arc not only false, but completely bizarre. Jennifer and Andy have effectively co-
p8Ill11ted for years and I believe this attempt to Chllf.18e things is another bullying tactic that's
reminiscent of their divorce. He's taking advantage of her financial situation and the :fitct that he
lllakes more money. I do not believe for a single second that his reasons for doing tbls are
genuine or sensible.
Andy is vr:ry effective at manipulating people and garnering infullll8tion to later on twist the
facts and use it against people. His previous DV coul'Ses and participation speak volumes. Our
family had slowly begun trusting Andy again for Lauren's sake and this recont filing on his part
is both saddening and scary. Jennifer and Andy have effectively co-parented for many years and
there is absolutely no need fot this custody battle. It's simply Andy fighting fur oontrol again.
I spend ample time around my niece, my sister, and her husband, Soufyane Mehaddi Law:en Is
a very happy and well adjusted child. Her every day needs are fulfilled and she receives all the
support and love she needs from her Mother and Stepfhther. Lauren bas always had a vezy close
bond with her Mother. Telclng Leuten away from her Mother would damage this bond and be
devaatating to both mother and daughter.
It's taken some 1bne to get to know Soufyane, Jennifer's husband, but it's happening and he's
proving to be a kind p61'Son with a good work ethic and 11 true fondness ibr Lauren. When he
firsl moved here, It seemed to be a little stressful for hlm and Jennifer as he was adjusting to a
new culture and new home. Thbigs are only getting better and he's becoming a regular part of
the famlly. He participates In and contnl>utes to family events. Blll.llding families is a difficult
lask for any0ne. Jennifer has been making this happen with care and patience.
Over the years, Jennifer has taken Lalll'Cl1 on a couple of trips to visit my kids and [ when I lived
in Florida, taken her on several weekend trips to Lake Chelan and participated in school and
sporting events. At times, her work schedule has interfered in some oflhese activities, but that is
to be expected. Andrew seems to have a much more flexible schedule than Jeonifilr and it's
ftustrating that he is tuming that fact around to try and use against her. Jennifer is working hard
to support herself and her film.ily.
Lauren is not abused or neglected in any way by her Mother. The accusation on Andy's part is
absurd. The only abuse here is Andy going after Jennifer, yet 11gain, with over the top
accusal ions.

SUPERIOR COURT OF WASHINGTON

7 In re:
Andrew Scott Rife NO. 05 3 02755 1
8 Petitioner,
and REPLY DECIARATION OF ANDREW RIFE
9 Jennifer Rae Mehaddi f/k/a Rife
Res ndent.
10
I, ANDREW RIFE, declare wider penalty of perjury of the laws of the State of Washington,
11 t the following is true and correct
16 FUNDAMENTAL ISSUES
17 Lauren Rife resides with me. I do the things custodial parents do. Jennifer has withdrawn
from parenting, and has a new DV relationship.
18 Jennifer asked me to care for our daughter while she has gone halfway around the world for
extended stays four times. Why on earth would she have me take .over parenting if she
19 actually believed any of her current criticisms1 to be true?
C. Jennifer Mehaddi does not propose a parenting plan. She wants to maintain the 2011
20 Parenting Plan she admits we never followed, and does not describe the residential schedule
she believes we have been following. I have described it accurately. I began keeping a
21 calendar in January 2013.
22 RELATIONSHIP WITH LAUREN

25 1
Lauren often sleeps in my bed. eonse(iuent!y, I sleep on the couch. Lauren wore pull ups to
bed until she out grew the problem. · .

1 Jennifer claims "We have a wonderful relalionship2" without explanation. Our daughter is
2 extrovert. She likes to GO. She likes to DO. She wants to be active. She likes being around lots
3 f people. She wants excitement and stimulation. With me she gets an active, social and stimulating
4 · e. I also see to it that she is fed properly, gets her homework done and a good night's sleep. The
6 DOMESTIC VIOLENCE
7 Jennifer attempts to raise negative innuendos. In 2005 and again in 2007 Jennifer filed
8 omestic violence restraining order actions against me. She lost. Both were dismissed. Years ago
9 I recognized my own problems and got cowiseling and the classes for domestic violence and also
10 ook parenting classes. Jennifer has yet to recognize her own problems, and has yet to remedy them.
12 Jennifer's first marriage was to lngo Klenner, a German immigrant. He returned to Germany
with domestic violence assault charges pending. See Attachment I, Bothell Municipal Court
13 docket.
In Januaiy 2003 her then-brother in law Mike Bnmsman and sister Lisa and Jennifer ended
14 up in a brawl. Police were called. Mike got arrested. Lisa and Jennifer were in a fist fight
but not arrested.
15 C. Jennifer's third marriage is with Soufyane Mehaddi. They argue a Jot. They have enough
domestic violence that she acknowledges his hand in her face and he threatened to hit Lauren
16 by raising his hand to hit her, causing Jennifer to call 911 to protect Lauren.
17 Chronic conflict with her parents, her husband and others is detrimental to Lauren.
20 explain why she refused to participate in mediation in the summer of2013. She requested mediation
21 t VOA to reach agreement on changes to the parenting plan. I agreed to mediate. Then the first DV
22 · ncident with her husband occurred. Then her check to VOA bounced. I paid for mediation. I still
23 ted to mediate about changes to the parenting plan, and I wanted to discuss the DV incident and

1 hat counseling or other services would red~ce the risk of any future similar incidents. Jennifer
2 ever responded. But Soufyane responded to call me a snake, showing his aggressive side to me,
3 otjust to Jennifer and Lauren. Attachment 2. VOA closed its file. Jennifer would not participate
4 · a nonjudicial process.
5 6. DYSFUNCTIONAL RELATIONSHIPS
6 Jennifer lauds her conflict laden family as a resource. In reality, the conflict on the maternal
7 ide of Lauren's family are additional detriment to Lauren. Jennifer complains to me about their
8 ngoing bickering, arguing, and even physical fighting. Here just a few of the many examples:
9 Mother. July 22, 2010 when her mother wanted to be paid the rent and would not provide
money for Jennifer to visit her sister (then living in Florida) Jennifer refers to her mother as
10 a "f"••uo B.. *H." Attachment 3. She and her parents complain about money to each
other. March 26, 2013 she texts concerning her mother, "She's a bitch. Don't even argue
11 with me on that one." Attachment 4.
Brother. March 7, 2011, when she returned from Algeria after marrying Soufyane, Jennifer's
12 brother Jeff sent an email that Soufyane would never be accepted in the farmly. Attachment
5. Jeff was right. Jennifer was not even welcome at her parent's home at Christmas 2012
13 over this issue. I took Christmas dinner to her at her condo. Attachment 6.
c. Father. February I0, 2013 Jennifer's father, Steve Holland, refers to Jennifer as a "dick head"
14 and "stupid." He kicked her out of the Holland house for the third time in two months.
Attachment 7.
15
THE GREEN HERRING : MONEY
16
I have been throwing good money after bad, to protect Lauren from Jennifer's
17
limesno:nsibility. Jennifer's conflicted relationships relate to her own irresponsibility. One way she
18
is irresponsible is about money3. She paid the dog groomer then I gave her for money for groceries.
19
e conflict with her mother4 was over money. Jennifer lives in a condo her parents rent to her for
20
$800 per month, less than a market rate. Jennifer fell behind on the rent, but had money to take a
21
22
23 3
Jennifer makes $18.00 per hour at SWedlsh Hospital/ Edmonds. At 8 hour days, 4.33 weeks In
24 month, she earns $3117 per month. She Jives tn a nice condo and drives a BMW. Poverty has nothing
to do with It.

1 "p to Algeria. Her mother rightly felt used. The conflict with her father also concerned money'.
2 She had been arguing with Soufyane for a week about money when she called 911 for domestic
6 ·es to impugn my parenting. Her attitude changed only because of this action.
7 Snorts. Lauren does not belong in Parks Department recreational soccer. She belongs in
8 lect competitive soccer. Lauren's schoolwork shows her enthusiasm for soccer. Recen~y she

10 · door soccer pitch. Attachment 8. Nobody is forcing this girl into soccer. Like all the parents, I
11 cheer our daughter on. Lauren is in the Washington Rush team picture. See Attachment 9. She
12 loves the sport and the activity. She is proud of her accomplishments.
13 At School. Lauren's classroom door is ordinarily kept open. Parents doing their volunteer
14 ours often wave at their kids if they happen to see each other. I do. Lauren happily waves back.

1 or soccer. She told me she and Lauren had done the math homework, but after soccer I would need
2 o do the spelling, the reading and !ht: science. Now she complains that Lauren does her homework
3 'th me. Jennifer never complained before. Lauren is accustomed to doing it with me, as that has
· 4 been the norm.
5 Jennifer complains in her declaration about all the events and ceremonies. But there have
6 een a grand total of two (2) special events for Lauren (Baptism and First Commwiion) she was
7 pecially invited to attend. These are big events to Lauren. Jennifer no-showed one and left early
8 on the second. All she had to do was be there and watch. Jennifer is not supporting Lauren when
9 she simply is not there or simply cannot stay there. The point is the disappointment for Lauren. She
10 says she has attended or participated in other ceremonies, without identifying any. There have not
11 eenany.
12 Jennifer is not involved in our daughter's health care. The medical records show we were
13 both involved in times gone by. But she has become less and less involved. The dentist confirms
14 ppointments with me. Jennifer complains that the appointments are made when she has to work.
15 cnnifer was off work from May 28 when she was fired witil she found new employment August 12.
16 he knew about the appointment for Lauren's cast removal on July 23, when she was home on
17 nemployment Insurance Compensation, but she did not attend.
18 10. GUARDIAN AD LITEM
19 Jennifer nominates two people to make an evaluation. One is not on the Snohomish County
20 GAL list. The other has no background on this case. It does not make sense to have to educate a
21 ew GAL. Bridget Llewellyn was the Guardian ad Litem in the original divorce. I think she is the
22 est choice for GAL if one is needed.

Subject: Florida
I've got a favor to ask. .. and it's humiliating. So that is why I am e-mailing you. I get my
paycheck tomorrow, and my Mom is insisting that she get her $800 in rent this pay period, plus
what I was behind in $100 for June rent and $200 in May rent. r got behind with some extra bills
and missing couple of days of work when I was sick and when Lisa was here .. .[ didn't have
enough PTO. Yes, she is a F* .... G s•••H. She knew this trip was coming up and with the
amount of money I make and paying rent and all my bills it is virtually impossible to save
money. Hence, why I never take trips. She won't work with me on this and that is why I'm so
freaking tired and stressed out Lauren and I cannot go to Florida and have a good time without
money, and you know Mike and Lisa don't have much either. So, if r paid you back $100 out of
each paycheck coming up, would you be willing (if you could) to loan me $500 for this trip? I
know.. .I'm sorry, I hate asking. I'm not Zack though, and this is a really tough spot to be in. I'm
so mad at my Mom right now I can't see straight She could have given me a break, for at least
this month. Or let me pay her back like I suggested to you. She is infinitely selfish and refuses to
see the situation from my point of view. I think she is also mad that Lauren and rare going and
she was never invited. To hell with her. Really. I'm so mad.
If you can't or feel uncomfortable, don't worry I will understand. Asking you was kind of my last
step. So, think about it and let me know. You know I wouldn't screw you over. Bye the way, tell
your Mom thanks for watching lauren and for buying her some new clothes. Boy or not! It helps,
really.

rve been thinking about all this for a while. While I don't approve of what you're
doing, ifs ultimately your decision and your life to live as you see fit However,
you have a child and that is and should be your primary focus.
Do reali7.e your decision to move forward with marrying and/or legally bringing
this pe!liOn to the U.S. will have consequences_.
- He will not be accepted by the family, including me and Debi. No one wants to
meet him, he won't be welcome in any one's home, and we won't want to come to
yo\D'S with him there.
- It will change the way the family interacts with you in a profoundly negative
manner.
- It will affect Lauren and how she grows up with a person in the family that all
but you have ostracized. The resentment and distancing between you and family
will undoubtably affect Lauren in a negative manner.
-Andy will more than likely challenge you for custody ofLallRlll given your
irrational behavior. Given what I've seen and heard, I have to say that I think he
has a good position if you move forward with your plans.
That's it I hope you consider your options and place your child first before your
own needs.

my own car, and insurance. My going to Algeria has nothing to do with that and affects it by no
way. Youjwnped to a conclusion that I had decided to travel to see Soufyane and not get a new
car. How can we get along and have an adult conversation when you go to asswnption?
This is now the 3rd time in 2 months where you Dad, have yelled and gotten in my personal
space and kicked me out of your house. You called me "stupid", you called me "dickhead" and
you know what? I said nothing back. I did not yell. I defended myself, but I kept my temper.
Mom, you are wrong. You said you heard "raised voices". The raised voice you heard was Dad.
Sure, Chase and Alexa and Lisa heard it. Every word.
So Dad. I am not "sponging" off you. In fact, I have taken great lengths to be more responsible
and be fully independent. A couple of times, I have borrowed money from you lately. I paid you
back as I said I would. That is not sponging. Also, to talk about the money from my divorce from
Andy is not fair. You helped, above and beyond and I said thank you many times. I am a good
person with a good conscience. I have made mistakes, but I will not accept for you to call me
stupid or a dickhead or to kick me out of your house in front of children and every one else.
I am going to visit my husband after almost l year apart. Rent will still be paid, and I will have
my own car. If for some reason I don't by the time I leave, then it is fine. I will understand you
taking back the BMW. I will find a way to work somehow. We all get just one life - and I am not
going to leave Soufyane. I love him, and we have a future. You have tried in so many ways to
prevent that and I can't understand why really.
Like I said, we have had some really hard times. Nothing makes what happened earlier tonight
okay. You threatened me with the condo AGAIN - when I am consistently paying rent. Why? It's
as if - I don't comply or do what you want me to do even in my own personal life, you try to
bend me or break me until I capitulate to what you think my life should be. I am a good person, a
good Mom, and I work hard. I am making things better. Yet, none of it seems to make a
difference with the two of you. You don't even seem to know me anymore.
