This class action lawsuit was filed on June 11, 2020 in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California. Plaintiffs were the Anti-Police Terror Project, Community Ready Corps, and several individuals. Defendants were the City of Oakland, the Oakland Police Department (OPD) Police Chief, an OPD Sergeant, and two OPD officers. The suit followed police actions to quell protests that arose after the police killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis. Plaintiffs were represented counsel from the National Lawyers Guild and the following private firms: Law Officer of Walter Riley; Siegel, Yee, Brunner & Mehta. The complaint alleged that Oakland police used tear gas, flash-bang grenades, and rubber bullets to disperse peaceful protests. Their suit was brought under 42 U.S.C. § 1983. Specifically, they claimed that the actions of the OPD in quelling the protests were in violation of their:

  • First Amendment rights to free speech, free assembly, and free association;
  • Fourth Amendment rights against excessive force and unlawful seizure;
  • Fourteenth Amendment rights to substantive due process.

They also said that the city was liable for failure to select, train, and supervise the police department.

Plaintiffs sought a temporary restraining order which would prohibit the use of pepper spray, flash-bang grenades, rubber bullets, and non-lethal weapons. They also sought a preliminary and permanent injunction to prohibit the alleged constitutional violations in the future. They also sought declaratory relief and money damages to be determined at a later date.

On June 12, 2020 the case was assigned to Magistrate Judge Joseph C. Spero. Through the next week, plaintiffs submitted proposals for temporary restraining orders, and on June 18, 2020 Judge Spero granted the order. It prohibited use of tear gas and chemical irritants, flash-bang grenades, and rubber bullets except upon decision of an Operations Commander or Incident Commander in the OPD.

After a series of hearings on the matter, on July 29 the court entered a preliminary injunction against the defendants to prohibit the OPD from using "less-lethal" weapons except in very limited settings, mandating that they wear body cameras, and requiring further training. 2020 WL 4346828. The provisions in the injunction were largely agreed upon by both parties during the hearings. However, the parties disagreed about the extent to which "mutual aid partners" would be bound by the preliminary injunction. During protests, the OPD had used mutual aid from other police departments and municipalities. The Court's subsequent opinion explained that because no mutual aid partners were defendants, the Court could not issue injunctive relief binding on mutual aid partners. 477 F.Supp.3d 1066. However, because under California law OPD officers were to remain in charge when using mutual aid, the Court included provisions in the preliminary injunction to ensure OPD officers remain in charge and that OPD would ensure that mutual aid partners do not use tactics inconsistent with the preliminary injunction.

The plaintiffs filed a motion to enforce and modify the preliminary injunction and for sanctions on October 7, 2020. The plaintiffs alleged that the City violated the preliminary injunction by deploying chemical agents and projectiles in a prohibited way, kettling peaceful protestors, and failing to maintain social distance during protests that followed the shooting of Jacob Black by a Kenosha police officer on August 23 and the failure to indict any police officers for the death of Breonna Taylor on September 25. At the Court's order, the plaintiffs submitted a proposed order on October 21 explaining their requested changes to the preliminary injunction. In their proposed order, the plaintiffs sought $100,000 in sanctions and several modifications to the list of items prohibited from use by the OPD and corresponding changes in training.

The City responded with a cross-motion to modify the preliminary injunction. The City disputed that it violated the injunction and sought changes to the mutual aid section of the injunction. The City said that after OPD informed its mutual aid partners of the preliminary injunction, many of its partners responded that they would no longer provide mutual aid. The City argued that it expected significant, extended protests with the upcoming presidential election and asked the Court to suspend the mutual aid section of the preliminary injunction and clarify that the injunction did not bind mutual aid partners.

The Court denied the plaintiffs' motion to modify the preliminary injunction and instead granted the defendants' motion to modify the injunction on October 31, 2020. 2020 WL 6381358. The Court acknowledged the concern of large-scale demonstrations with the presidential election and the potential challenges the OPD would face in policing such large-scale demonstrations without mutual aid. It found that the combination of the lack of mutual aid and the potential demonstrations was a significant change in the facts meriting a change in the injunction to properly balance the equities of the parties and the public interest. OPD officers still were required to ensure that mutual aid partners were briefed on OPD's prohibited weapons and force to the extent possible.

The plaintiffs filed an amended complaint on October 20. In the amended complaint, they added numerous individual plaintiffs. In addition, they added claims alleging assault, battery, false arrest, false imprisonment, negligence, and violations of their rights under the California Constitution. The factual allegations and sought after relief remained largely the same.

Magistrate Judge Spero denied plaintiffs' motion for class certification, without prejudice, on October 18, 2021. 2021 WL 4846958. Magistrate Judge Spero found the proposed class overbroad because it included peaceful and non-peaceful protestors alike as well protestors who were harmed by OPD and mutual aid officers.

On February 1, 2022, the magistrate judge granted the parties' stipulated class. The class, certified under FRCP 23(b)(2), covered:

All persons injured by tear gas deployed by the Oakland Police Department or its mutual aid partners during the George Floyd protests on May 29-31, and June 1, 2020, while protesting peacefully in the City of Oakland, with respect to their claims against the City of Oakland for violations of their rights under the First Amendment, Fourth Amendment (excessive force), and Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution and their state law claims of assault and battery, negligence, and violation of the Bane Act (Civil Code § 52.1).

A jury trial is set for May 24, 2022, and this case remains on-going pending on-going settlement talks.
