BULLETIN:
INJUNCTION
FILED AGAINST PACIFICA DENIED
_______________________________
The injuncion
asked the court to immediately prohibit seating, voting,
or acting as directors -- Moran, van Putten, Johns, Murdock,
Lee, Cagan, Lyons & Chambers -- on the grounds that they
were not elected by "secret ballot" as required for "at
large" directors prior to the illegal bylaws amendments.
It also asks the court to prohibit seating, voting or
acting as directors the last five -- Murdock, Lee, Cagan,
Lyons & Chambers -- on the grounds that this results in
more than 5 "at large" directors & violates the LABs right
to elect 2/3rds of the Board. It also asks the court to
order the seating of Jay Imani and any other director(s)
who may be elected by the LABs during the pendency of
the action.
Here are excerpts of what was asked of the court and could
not be granted without a fuller hearing of all the evidence including
depositions, etc.:
"Accordingly,
pending such final resolution, this Court should preserve the
status quo by prohibiting Pacifica from committing, performing,
or engaging in actions that violate the pre-amendment Bylaws.
In particular, as set forth below, this Court should prohibit
Pacifica from:
1. refusing
to seat or permit to act as a corporate director any Director duly
elected pursuant to Article Three, Section Two of the pre-amendment
Bylaws;
2. seating,
electing, or permitting to act as a corporate director any Director
chosen or elected in violation of Article Three, Section Two of the
pre-amendment Bylaws; and
3. seating,
electing, or permitting to act as a corporate director any Director
chosen or elected in violation of Article Three, Section Four of the
pre-amendment Bylaws.
4.
seating, electing, or permitting to act as a corporate director
any Director chosen or elected in violation of the Bylaws and
Policies requiring that the total number of at-large Directors
not exceed one-half of LAB-elected Directors."

The
judge made it clear that the denial of this injunction did not
suggest that this case could or would not be won when it is fully
heard; he simply could not take this immediate action without
unequivocal proof that immediate damage would otherwise occur
and because conflicting statements have been offered to the court
by Pacifica Board members (surprise).
