Summary

After a closed session, the Beaumont City Council reported taking a reportable action on Ilepataifi v. City of Beaumont: the council moved to dismiss the city's state-court cross-complaint. No reportable action was taken on Beaumont v. Simon Liartz or on a potential new case.

The Beaumont City Council reported a closed-session action taken on litigation involving Ilepataifi v. City of Beaumont. According to the council report, the matter is Riverside County Superior Court case CVR12105069.

The clerk said, “There was a motion to dismiss the city state court action cross complaint. That motion was made by council member Laura. The 2nd was by council member Fenn, and the vote was the mayor in favor of the motion, mayor Pro Tem White in favor of the motion, council member Laura in favor of the motion, council member Martinez in favor of the motion, and council member Fenn in favor of the motion.” The clerk reported no reportable action on the separate case Beaumont v. Simon Liartz and no reportable action on the potential initiation of litigation involving one additional potential case.

The council did not provide further details on the legal basis for the dismissal motion in the public report. The record released at the meeting names the two existing matters and confirms the vote, but the council withheld additional closed-session details permitted under state law.
