The document details a legal case in which eight members of the Indianapolis-Marion County City-County Council and the former clerk filed a complaint against the council's president, Stephen Clay, alleging improper termination of former counsel Fred Biesecker and the clerk, resulting in chaos within the council. Clay's opposition highlights that the plaintiffs lack standing, have not met the burden of proof for a temporary restraining order, and that the court should not intervene in the council's internal affairs. The response argues that the plaintiffs' allegations and actions caused the purported chaos, contradicting their claims and seeking to undermine the principles of separation of powers in the Indiana state constitution.

PRESIDENT STEPHEN CLAY’S OPPOSITION
TO PLAINTIFFS’ MOTION FOR
TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER
I. Introduction
On February 8, 2018, eight out of the twenty-five individual members of the
Indianapolis-Marion County City-County Council (“Council”) and NaTrina S. DeBow
(“DeBow”), the former Clerk of the Council, filed a complaint against Stephen Clay, the
President of the Council (“President Clay”), demanding that the Court intervene in Council
proceedings and order the immediate reinstatement of Fred Biesecker (“Biesecker”), former
General Counsel and Parliamentarian, and DeBow to their positions prior to the February 19
Council meeting. According to the plaintiffs, President Clay was “denying the Councillors
access to independent legal and parliamentary advice from Biesecker.” Further, the plaintiffs

2. 2
alleged that by terminating and preventing Biesecker and DeBow from performing their
respective jobs, President Clay had purportedly harmed the eight councillors and the public “by
throwing the Council into chaos and preventing it from performing the Council’s public
business.” Having failed to get their way in the Council chambers, plaintiffs now seek refuge in
the Courthouse.
Significantly, the plaintiffs did not cite a single case citation in their legal memorandum
in support of their extraordinary demand. The only evidence that they have submitted to the
Court is an affidavit from Biesecker which is not correct, is self-serving, and has not been
subjected to cross-examination.
Plaintiffs’ Motion for a Temporary Restraining Order is frivolous on its face and should
be denied for reasons including:
1. The power to issue a preliminary injunction should be used sparingly, and such
relief should not be granted except in rare instances in which the law and facts are clearly within
the moving party’s favor. Pathfinder Communications Corp. v. Macy, 795 N.E.2d 1103, 1109
(Ind. Ct. App. 2003) (citing Barlow v. Sipes, 744 N.E.2d 1, 5 (Ind. Ct. App. 2001), trans.
denied).
2. To obtain a preliminary injunction, the moving party has the heavy burden of
showing that: (1) the movant’s remedies at law are inadequate, thus causing irreparable harm
pending resolution of the substantive action; (2) the movant has at least a reasonable likelihood
of success at trial by establishing a prima facie case; (3) threatened injury to the movant
outweighs the potential harm to the non-moving party resulting from the granting of an
injunction; and (4) the public interest would not be disserved. Apple Glen Crossing, LLC v.
Trademark Retail, Inc., 784 N.E.2d 484, 487 (Ind. 2003) (citations omitted).

3. 3
3. If the movant fails to prove any of these requirements, the request for injunction
must be denied. Apple Glen Crossing, 784 N.E.2d at 487.
4. Plaintiffs cannot establish a reasonable likelihood of success at trial. In fact,
President Clay intends to file a motion to dismiss as soon as possible. Eight of the nine
plaintiffs, i.e., the individual Council members, have no standing to even file the lawsuit. There
is no allegation that the plaintiffs have been authorized to represent the Council itself. The
Council as an entity and its President must authorize a lawsuit. Indeed, the President of the
Council is the only individual who is authorized to provide instructions to any attorney
representing the Council during litigation. See Revised Code of the Consolidated City and
County, Section 151-7(b).
5. The ninth plaintiff, DeBow, has no standing to seek reinstatement of Biesecker.
At best, she could have standing to file a lawsuit for her own termination, but as will be
discussed, her claim is not ripe for review and would never support any request for a temporary
restraining order. She has yet to pursue her available remedies with the Council regarding her
employment.
6. Biesecker’s contract expired on December 31, 2017. On January 8, 2018,
following the election of President Clay, Biesecker knew he would likely be terminated and
began searching for a new job.
7. In Biesecker’s role as general counsel/Parliamentarian, his client was the Council
as a whole. The Council elected President Clay but Biesecker then counseled individual
members of the Council as to how to remove President Clay. Biesecker did not provide
independent counsel to the Council, rather he acted adversely to the Council and its duly elected
President.

4. 4
8. Biesecker’s affidavit contains incorrect statements and omits material facts. He
did not provide independent counsel but, instead, advocated for the Democratic Caucus and
orchestrated a plan to undermine the actions by the Council and its President in his efforts to
secure new employment.
9. Courts are reluctant and should be reluctant to interfere in the proceedings and
decision-making process of a separate branch of government.
10. There is no final decision of any kind for this Court to review. Thus, there is no
real case or controversy sufficiently articulated upon which this Court may rule.
11. There is no irreparable harm. There are multiple lawyers who can provide legal
services to the Council. The City’s Corporation Counsel has offered to provide assistance.
President Clay and the Acting Clerk are appointing an Interim General Counsel who can provide
the appropriate legal services. In addition, by law, if the Clerk of the Council is no longer
employed, the Assistant Clerk becomes the Acting Clerk. The Assistant Clerks are fully capable
and are performing DeBow’s duties. In fact, the existing Acting Clerk has been performing the
required statutory duties for decades and prior to Clerk DeBow’s appointment.
12. The balance of harms favors President Clay. While plaintiffs seek to serve their
own interests, their requested emergency relief infringes upon the powers and functions of the
Council itself and its duly-elected President.
13. The public interest is not in any way served by the filing of this lawsuit. To the
contrary, plaintiffs seek to infringe on the separation of powers doctrine that is embedded in the
Indiana State Constitution and which prevents one branch of government from meddling in the
internal affairs of another. This is not a justiciable issue suitable for adjudication by this Court.

5. 5
14. Plaintiffs claim that the public interest was somehow harmed because of the
purported “chaos” in the Council. Any purported “chaos” in the Council is the direct result of
actions taken by these plaintiffs in conjunction with Biesecker and resulted from the vitriolic
animosity and anger of the former Council’s President and others over her loss of office.
15. Indeed, the public has been directly harmed by the actions taken by plaintiffs and
others over the last several weeks. Rather than work with newly elected President Clay, the
plaintiffs and others chose to: (1) engage in a smear campaign to demean and belittle President
Clay without allowing him to defend himself; (2) cause the filing of a motion to have him
removed from office before he had any chance of demonstrating his capabilities or defending
himself from the degrading attacks against him; and, (3) file a frivolous lawsuit attempting to
divert attentions away from the public business.
II. Facts
On January 8, 2018, the Council duly elected one of its members, Stephen Clay, to be its
President by a vote of 14 to 11, defeating plaintiff and former Council President, Maggie Lewis.
(See Exhibit (“Ex.”) 1, Vote Tally, and Ex. 2, Minutes) Lewis, did not accept her loss
graciously, but instead immediately and incorrectly proclaimed that Clay’s win was a Republican
takeover of the council. (Ex. 3) As this Court knows, the Democrats hold the majority of the
Council but there are eleven Republicans. Marion County consists of voters in two parties who
are expected to work together and for the best interests of the County as a whole.
Immediately following the Council meeting, Biesecker, then the Council’s General
Counsel and “Independent” Parliamentarian, began looking for a new job. He emailed
Indianapolis Corporation Counsel Andy Mallon stating that “I assume I will not be retained as

6. 6
general counsel, so if there is something I can do to help the administration as a contractor or
employee, please let me know.” (Ex. 4)
The following day, January 9, Biesecker emailed the Council’s Chief Financial Officer
(“CFO”) Bart Brown stating that “since there will likely be a new general counsel by 1/29, is
there any room in our budget to hire majority caucus counsel (i.e., me)?” (Ex. 5 )
On January 10, 2018, Biesecker conveyed to an acquaintance shocking and vicious
remarks: “Well, the child loving Reverend sold his soul to the Republicans and, with the help of
4 other sexist Democrats [i.e., Councillors Joseph Simpson, William C. Oliver, Monroe Gray,
and Lakeisha Jackson], won 14-11. I’m meeting with him [President Clay] today but I suspect I
will soon be able to devote more time to Finnegans Wake. Only 681 pages to go.” (Ex. 6)
At the same time, Biesecker was busy trying to obtain a new contract from President Clay
to continue to remain as General Counsel even though he was engaging in communications with
others to have President Clay removed. Biesecker’s contract as the Council’s General Counsel
expired on December 31, 2017. (Ex. 7) Unbeknownst to President Clay, Biesecker and DeBow
were exchanging multiple emails on how to convince President Clay to agree to a new contract
with Biesecker. They drafted alternative contracts—one for a full year, another with an
addendum for additional services, and yet another, a three-month contract. (Ex. 8) Biesecker
and DeBow discussed how best to approach President Clay to convince him to execute a
contract. Id. Neither Biesecker nor DeBow advised President Clay that they were in discussions
with others regarding his ouster, the support of former President Maggie Lewis, or their
disparagement of President Clay to others.
Also unbeknownst to President Clay, on Thursday, January 25, 2018, Biesecker and
Plaintiff Zach Adamson, engaged in an exchange of emails and telephone conferences,

7. 7
discussing actions which could be taken to remove the newly elected President at his first council
meeting scheduled for January 29, 2018. (Ex. 9) In an email claiming to be “private,” Adamson
wanted to know whether a vote of no confidence would have to be placed on the agenda and
“does it need a proposal?” Biesecker responded to the “private” email that “Neither our rules nor
Robert’s Rules mentions a motion or vote of no confidence. It would have no effect other than
expressing the majority’s views. You would have to amend the agenda to add it under new
business. It would not need a proposal.” Biesecker further advised Adamson that at the opening
of the meeting someone should make a “motion to amend the agenda to add (under New
Business) a motion for a vote of no confidence.”
On Monday, January 29, 2018, unbeknownst to President Clay, Biesecker, as “General
Counsel to the City-County Council,” prior to the Council meeting, emailed James Briggs, a
reporter for the Indianapolis Star, that the process for electing a new council president before the
expiration of Council President Stephen Clay’s term “would be governed by council rule 151-
13(c), which states that, “Any officer elected by the city-county council may be removed upon a
majority vote of all members of the city-county council; however, no vote shall be had upon a
removal until the motion to do so has been made a special order of business by vote at a meeting
at least one (1) week prior thereto.” (Ex. 10)
Biesecker did not inform the reporter about relevant code cites including Rev. Code 151-
61(b) which states “Any proposal which contemplates a resolution or other action by a council in
the nature of …admonishment or proclamation shall be designated ‘a proposal for a special
resolution.’ The proposal shall be properly before the council for final action unless the
president or council refers or tables the proposal. If eight (8) councillors so request, the proposal
shall be referred to a committee.” Rev. Code 151-1211 also requires “Any allegation of

8. 8
violations of the ethical standards of this chapter [to] be initiated by a councillor … by filing a
statement of allegations, that complies with section 151-1122, with the clerk of the council.”
This then requires the matter to be referred to the ethics committee and the specific ethics
procedure followed.
No proposal was submitted in advance of the meeting nor was any notice provided to
President Clay and the full Council that Biesecker and others had devised a plan to unseat
President Clay before he had any opportunity to act as President and carry out his duties.
On January 29, 2018, Biesecker’s plan was carried out, Following the registry of
attendance, the pledge of allegiance, and prayers, President Clay moved for the Adoption of the
Agenda. A Democratic council member moved “to amend the agenda under new business by the
addition of a motion to place on the agenda at the next regular meeting of the Council on
February 19, 2018 a special order of business to remove the President of the Council.” (Ex. 11,
Agenda; Ex. 12, Minutes; and, Ex. 13, Vote Tally. The handwritten motion is “to place on
agenda under new business to add removal of Pres. To Feb. 19 agenda.”
This motion came as a great surprise to the President and the Council as a whole. Indeed,
it was a motion made purportedly because of a “lack of confidence” in President Clay’s
leadership even though he had not even had the opportunity to demonstrate his leadership role.
Without prior discussion there was a vote: 12 Yeas, 11 Nays, and 2 Absent. (Ex. 12, 13)
Council minority leader Mike McQuillen asked for an explanation of this vote result, saying that
it takes 13 votes in order for a motion to pass. Biesecker said that a motion on a procedural
matter, which is what it is, only requires a majority of those present, not a majority of the full
body. (Ex. 12) McQuillen advised that he did not understand the need to remove the President
from office when there are no allegations or violations recognized. As he advised, any

9. 9
allegations of violations on conduct of a councillor are to be filed with the Clerk and referred to
the Ethics Committee. He moved to send the issue to the Ethics Committee. According to the
minutes, Plaintiff/Councillor Adamson replied that this is a motion to amend the agenda, and is
not an ethics debate. Without being invited or recognized to speak, Biesecker stated that there
was nothing in the motion with regard to ethics or any charges, but was simply a procedural
motion. McQuillen correctly advised that this was an ethics related motion and should be
referred to and heard by the Ethics Committee. According to Biesecker (again without any
invitation to speak), this was not an ethics complaint but the removal of the President was simply
a “procedural” motion and at the February 19 Council meeting would require 13 votes for
passage. At no time did Biesecker advise the Council that he was directly involved in providing
the strategy for the removal of President Clay, contrary to the Council’s lawful election of him as
its President. Instead, he abandoned his role of impartial parliamentarian and played a
substantive role in the conversation.
On January 31, 2018, President Clay terminated Biesecker and DeBow. (Ex. 14)
Despite his termination, on February 2, 2018, Biesecker contacted the Assistant Clerks
Angela Gonzalez and Leslie Williams requesting committee agendas and other documents. (Ex.
15) Further, in another email he attempted to convince the clerks to assist in the removal of
President Clay by advising them that: “Also, for the 2/19 agenda, I suggest putting the removal
vote where we put election of officers – after official communications and before adoption of
agenda.” (Ex. 16) Two hours later Biesecker advised Assistant Clerk Gonzalez that “As you
know, the President, with assistance from council staff, sets the preliminary agenda, which is not
final until it is adopted by the full council at the council meeting.” Id.

10. 10
On February 8, 2018, the Democrat Caucus (on its own and without inviting President
Clay to attend or allowing him to defend himself) issued a vitriolic, libelous resolution expelling
him from the Democratic Caucus of the Council because of his alleged “dishonesty and blinding
self-interest,” his conspiracy with other councillors, his alleged violations of the law, and his
self-serving and blatant betrayal of the Democrat Caucus.” (Ex. 17) Besides the resolution,
plaintiffs also issued other statements which sought to admonish President Clay’s ethics claiming
he was deceitful, betrayed the trust of voters, and was unfit to serve as President. (Ex. 18)
For his part, President Clay has consistently advised the Council that he believes it is in
the best interests of the community and the voters to work together in a constructive and
productive manner. (Ex. 19)
As President Clay stated following his election, “I think what we saw today is what
happens when Democrats and Republicans work together form the common good.” “I’m
grateful for the privilege to be able to serve, and tomorrow we govern So we fall back in line
and we move the people’s agenda forward.” (See Ex. 3)
On February 8, 2018, eight council members (less than one third of the council) and
DeBow filed this lawsuit seeking a temporary restraining order.
III. LEGAL AUTHORITIES AND ARGUMENT
A. The Plaintiffs Lack Standing to File This Lawsuit
Although the Indiana constitution contains no “case or controversy” requirement, the
federal limits on justiciability are instructive, because the standing requirement under both
federal and state constitutional law fulfills the same purpose: ensuring that the litigant is entitled
to have the court decide the merits of the dispute or of particular issues. Hibler v. Conseco, Inc.,
744 N.E.2d 1012, 1023 (Ind. Ct. App. 2001). The standing doctrine constitutes a significant

11. 11
restraint upon the ability of Indiana courts to act as it denies courts any jurisdiction absent actual
injury to a party participating in the case. Id. It restricts the courts to real controversies in which
the complaining party has a demonstrable injury. Id. In order to establish standing, a plaintiff
must demonstrate a personal stake in the outcome of the lawsuit and must show that he has
sustained or is in immediate danger of sustaining some direct injury as a result of the conduct at
issue. Id. As noted by the court in Hibler, federal law is instructive on this point. In Raines v.
Byrd, the Unites States Supreme Court addressed the standing of individual members of
Congress who had voted against a bill to file suit alleging that the bill in question was
unconstitutional. One element of the case-or-controversy requirement is that plaintiffs, based on
their complaint, must establish that they have standing to sue. Raines v. Byrd, 521 U.S. 811, 818
(1997). A plaintiff’s complaint “must establish that he has a ‘personal stake’ in the alleged
dispute, and that the alleged injury suffered is particularized as to him.” Raines, 521 U.S. at 819.
The Court found that the members of Congress did not meet that standard and also thought it
significant they were not authorized to represent their respective Houses of Congress. Id. at 829.
First, appellees have not been singled out for specially unfavorable treatment as
opposed to other Members of their respective bodies. Their claim is that the Act causes a
type of institutional injury (the diminution of legislative power), which necessarily
damages all Members of Congress and both Houses of Congress equally.
Raines, 521 U.S. at 821.
The Councilor-Plaintiffs in this action are in a position similar to those in Raines: None
of them have established a “personal stake” in the dispute regarding the clerk and general
counsel that is any different from other members of the Council. Indeed, the alleged injuries at
issue are to the Council as a whole, not to any individual members. See Verified Complaint,

12. 12
para. 1, (“Clay’s … actions are continuing to harm the Councillors, … by throwing the Council
into chaos and preventing it from performing the Council’s public business”).
Further, there is no allegation that the Councilor-Plaintiffs have been authorized to
represent the Council. Indeed, the President of the Council is the only individual who is
authorized to provide instructions to an attorney representing the Council during litigation.
Revised Code of the Consolidated City and County, Section 151-7(b). That is clearly not the
case here.
Based upon the foregoing, the Councilor-Plaintiffs lack standing to bring this action and
any complaint filed by them must be dismissed.
With respect to Plaintiff DeBow, she clearly lacks standing as well to pursue this action
and has no personal stake in the reinstatement of Biesecker.
B. Biesecker Has No Right to Reinstatement
The plaintiffs’ allegations are based on the terminations of two individuals, Fred
Biesecker, who was general counsel to the Council and is not a party to this action, and Plaintiff
Natrina DeBow, who served as Clerk to the Council. The actions that President Clay took with
respect to both individuals are not the proper subjects of an action before this Court. Each will
be addressed in turn.
With respect to Biesecker, most telling is the fact that he is not even a party to this action.
Even if the Court deems the Plaintiff Councillors to have standing to assert some sort of claim
regarding Biesecker, they cannot prevail on the merits. Biesecker was the Council’s general
counsel and parliamentarian. Complaint, para. 1. The Complaint alleges that President Clay
violated the Marion County ordinances “by denying the Councillors access to independent legal
and parliamentary advice from Biesecker.” Complaint, para. 1. The general counsel is

13. 13
appointed by the President upon recommendation by the Rules and Public Policy Committee,
subject to approval by the full Council. Rev. Code Sec. 151-100. There is no ordinance or
statute that specifies that the general counsel is appointed for a specific term. See Rev. Code
Sec. 151-98 through 151-101. Likewise, there is no provision that establishes requirements or a
process to be followed in terminating the general counsel. See Id. Rather, the terms of
Biesecker’s employment were set forth in a Legal Services Agreement (Agreement) executed on
February 1, 2016, by Biesecker and Councilor Maggie Lewis, the previous Council President.
See Ex. 7, Legal Services Agreement. The Agreement specifically states that it was in effect
from January 1, 2017, through December 31, 2017. Id. at 3. No new Legal Services Agreement
had been executed as of the date President Clay informed Biesecker that his services were no
longer needed. (See Ex. 8) There is no provision that states the general counsel continues to
serve until his/her successor is appointed. See Rev. Code Sec. 151-98 through 151-101.
Therefore, plaintiffs’ claim that President Clay acted without authority in not renewing
Biesecker’s contract is not supported by the law or facts.
Plaintiff Councillors had no reasonable expectation that Biesecker would continue in his
position without a contract and failed to exhaust their own internal processes for maintaining him
in that position. The Plaintiff Councillors could have followed the Council’s procedures, which
are set forth in the ordinances, and have the Rules Committee recommend and the Council
approve Biesecker’s reappointment to the position of general counsel. See Rev. Code Sec. 151-
100. This process was followed in prior years that Biesecker was general counsel. See Ex. 20,
Council Minutes 2/8/16, 1/9/12; Rules Committee Minutes 1/9/12, 1/27/15. They failed to do so
both before and after President Clay’s decision not to renew Biesecker’s contract. Because

14. 14
Plaintiff Councillors’ failed to exhaust their own internal processes to renew Biesecker’s
contract, they may not invoke the power of the Court to do that which they failed to do.
In addition, there has not been any harm to the Council or the public. The Council has
not been deprived of independent legal counsel. First, Biesecker did not provide independent
counsel. He was serving others, not the Council. Second, the Office of Corporation Counsel for
the Consolidated City and County agreed to provide necessary legal advice to the Council while
the position of general counsel is vacant. See Ex. 21, E-mail from Andy Mallon, Corporation
Counsel. In addition, President Clay has himself and through the interim clerk, contracted with
Suzannah Wilson Overholt to act as interim parliamentarian and counsel to the Council until
such time as the Rules Committee recommends and the Council approves, a new general
counsel. See Ind. Code 36-3-4-8.5 (a); and Ex. 22, Engagement Letter, Overholt Resume.
Overholt has past experience working with the Council through her various roles in City
government, including as Deputy Corporation Counsel for the Office of Corporation Counsel
and Indianapolis Works Transition Director for the office of Mayor Bart Peterson. The
temporary retention of Overholt should address any concerns Plaintiffs have about the lack of a
general counsel and parliamentarian.
Finally, it was appropriate to terminate Biesecker. He forgot that his client was the
Council, not the Democratic Caucus or any individual councilor acting alone or in concert.
Instead he secretly colluded to remove the duly elected President, disparaged him and other
Council members, and concealed substantive information from the President and the Council
itself.
C. DeBow’s Claims Are Not Ripe for Adjudication

15. 15
Plaintiff DeBow’s claim, if she has one, is premature. DeBow was re-appointed clerk of
the Council at the January 8, 2018, Council meeting. Complaint, para. 3. The clerk is appointed
to a one year term and serves at the pleasure of the Council. Ind. Code 36-3-4-8(a); Rev. Code
Sec. 151-12, 151-91. The clerk continues in office until her successor is appointed and qualified.
Ind. Code 36-3-4-8(a). However, the clerk’s interest in the position is not absolute, as she serves
at the pleasure of the Council. See Id. Therefore, she could be terminated for any reason at any
time by the Council.
Following his election, President Clay concluded that DeBow was not performing her
duties as expected and that other staff members were actually and capability performing her
statutory duties instead.
If President Clay failed to comply with Council procedures regarding DeBow’s position,
the Council, as the appointing authority, has the ability to override President Clay’s actions.
Each councilor may initiate proposals for introduction to the Council. Rev. Code Sec. 151-63(a).
The Council could take a vote on a proposal regarding DeBow’s status at a full meeting or the
Rules or Ethics Committees could address the matter. Indeed, the Council may approve a
proposal at the same meeting in which it is introduced if it is distributed in advance of the
meeting and a motion to approve the proposal is supported by 15 members of the Council. Rev.
Code Sec. 151-75. Alternatively, the Council could have held a special meeting. See Rev. Code
151-5 (requiring 40% of the Councillors or upon the call of the President). However, the
Council has not taken any of these actions. The first regular Council meeting since DeBow’s
removal is February 19, 2018. Whether the Council will seek to retain DeBow is yet to be seen.
The fact that the Council has failed to take any of the steps within its control to address DeBow’s

16. 16
position indicates that this matter lacks the urgency normally associated with the extraordinary
remedies plaintiffs seek here.
Further, the fact that the clerk continues in office until her successor is appointed and
qualified does not necessarily mean that she has the right to be in the physical office performing
her job duties when she has been deemed the inappropriate person for the position pending
formal action by the Council. For example, would a clerk (not necessarily DeBow) found to be
engaged in unlawful conduct be entitled to be kept on the job until a law abiding person could be
appointed? Of course not – the public would not stand for such an outcome. The Code remedies
that issue by specifically providing that the assistant clerks are authorized to perform all of the
duties of the clerk in the clerk’s absence. See Rev. Code Sec. 151-99.
Finally, DeBow’s harm is purely economic – she has not been paid as clerk since she was
terminated. She has an adequate remedy at law against the Council to address that issue.
Indiana law is well-settled that if an award of post-trial damages is sufficient to make the
plaintiff whole for its economic injury, then injunctive relief is not warranted. See Vickery v.
Ardagh Glass Inc., 85 N.E.3d 852, 864 (Ind. Ct. App. 2017), reh'g denied, No. 49A02-1702-PL-
330, 2017 WL 6461127 (Ind. Ct. App. Dec. 19, 2017).
D. Plaintiffs’ Claims Are Non-justiciable and
Infringe on the Separation of Powers Doctrine.
The separation of powers doctrine is embodied in Article 3, Section 1, of the Indiana
Constitution, which states:
The powers of the Government are divided into three separate departments; the
Legislative, the Executive including the Administrative, and the Judicial: and no
person, charged with official duties under one of these departments, shall exercise
any of the functions of another, except as in this Constitution expressly provided.
I.,. Art. 3, § 1.

17. 17
The separation of powers doctrine prevents the courts from reviewing political, social,
and economic actions within the exclusive province of coordinate branches of government. Berry
v. Crawford, 990 N.E.2d 910, 915 (Ind. 2013) (citing Peavler v. Bd. of Comm'rs of Monroe
Cnty., 528 N.E.2d 40, 44 (Ind.1988)). The purpose of this doctrine is “to rid each separate
department of government from any influence or control by the other department.” Berry, 990
N.E.2d at 415 (quoting A.B. v. State, 949 N.E.2d 1204, 1212 (Ind.2011)).
As such, Courts should be very careful not to invade the authority of the legislature. Nor
should anxiety to maintain the constitution, laudable as that must ever be esteemed, lessen their
caution in that particular; for if they overstep the authority which belongs to them, and assume
that which pertains to the legislature, they violate the very constitution which they thereby seek
to preserve and maintain. Berry, 990 N.E.2d at 415 (quoting State ex rel. Bd. of Comm'rs of
Benton Cnty. v. Boice, 140 Ind. 506, 514, 40 N.E. 113, 113 (1895)).
Although jurisdiction is granted to the courts by the Constitution, such jurisdiction is
neither absolute nor unlimited. Berry, 990 N.E.2d at 417. Thus, prudential concerns may render a
dispute non-justiciable by the courts. Id. There is a distinction between jurisdiction and
justiciability. Jurisdiction is defined as “[a] court's power to decide a case or issue a decree.” Id.
(citing Black's Law Dictionary 927 (9th ed. 2009)). It is the power in the first instance for a court
to exercise authority over and rule on a dispute. Id. at 918. Justiciability, on the other hand, is
“[t]he quality or state of being appropriate or suitable for adjudication by a court.” Id. (quoting
Black’s Law Dictionary at 943). Accordingly, prudential concerns over the appropriateness of a
case for adjudication may preclude the courts from deciding a dispute on the merits. Id.
Traditionally, the justiciability discussion under Indiana law has focused on questions of
standing and mootness. Id. see, e.g., City of Indianapolis, ex rel. City–Cnty. Council of

18. 18
Indianapolis & Marion Cnty. v. Ind. State Bd. of Tax Comm'rs, 261 Ind. 635, 637, 308 N.E.2d
868, 869 (1974) (dismissing appeal due to a “fundamental lack of ‘justiciability,”’ resulting from
a lack of standing). However, a separate justiciability concern arises when courts are asked to
review internal matters of a coordinate branch of government. City of Indianapolis, 261 Ind. at
637, 308 N.E.2d at 869. In such situations, although the courts have jurisdiction to review the
case in the first instance, justiciability concerns stemming from Article 3, Section 1, caution the
courts to intervene only where doing so would not upset the balance of the separation of powers.
Id. Thus, the decree issued by a court pursuant to its lawful jurisdiction may, on occasion, state
that, for prudential reasons, the issues in the case at hand are non-justiciable. Id.
In Berry, members of Indiana House of Representatives Democratic Caucus filed suit
against the Speaker of House, State Auditor, and others to recover full pay and for injunctive
relief after House Republican Caucus, by motion, imposed fines on members for having
intentionally absented themselves from state in order to block vote on pending legislation. The
Marion County Superior Court granted plaintiffs' motion to dismiss in part, certified order for
interlocutory appeal, and stayed the case. A second action was filed on the same basis after fines
were imposed on House Democratic Caucus members after they again absented themselves from
state in order to block vote on pending legislation. Upon consolidation, the Marion Superior
Court, David J. Dreyer, J., entered judgment for House Democratic Caucus members, and the
defendants appealed. On appeal, the Indiana Supreme Court ruled that General Assembly had
exclusive constitutional authority to compel attendance of members of House Democratic
Caucus and to impose discipline for violations of internal rules of operation, and that the suit was
non-justiciable under the separation of powers doctrine. Berry, 990 N.E.2d at 421-22.

19. 19
Likewise, this Court should refrain from interfering with the internal operations of the
Council and its President, including the selection or retention of its General Counsel and Clerk.
These matters are still properly before the Council and will be addressed at the February 19
meeting, just a few days away. There is no issue before the Court that the Court should or must
adjudicate. The Council should attend to Council business, not the courts.
IV. CONCLUSION
Based on the foregoing, Council President Stephen Clay requests that this Court deny
plaintiffs’ Motion for a Temporary Restraining Order.

Stephen Clay becomes Indianapolis council president as
Republicans pull off'coup'
James T3riees,james.briggstai indystar.com Published 9:1R p.m.ETJan.8,2018 ~ Updatcvl 2:42 p.m.ETJan.9,2018
The balance of power in Indianapolis politics shifted Monday as DemocratStephen Clay rode a wave of
Republican supportto become City-County Council president, a win that negates Democrats'14-11 council
majority.
Clay defeated former Council President Maggie Lewis,14-11,including votesfrom nine Republicans and five
Democrats.The vote capped an ugly race that wasfought in the aftermath of a sexual groping accusation
against Clay that became public in recent days and that he strongly denied.
(Photo:JamesBriggs/lndyStar)
"I think what we saw today is what happens when Democrats and Republicans can work togetherfor the
common good," Clay said."And I'm grateful for the privilege to be able to serve,and tomorrow we govern. So, we fail back in line and we move the
people's agenda forward."
"it smells." Councilman decries deal made in private to develop homes at Westfield golf course(/storvinews/locallhamiiton-
county/2018/01/09/councilman-says-deaI-develop-homes-westfieId-golf-course-smells/1015400001/)
Members of Clay's party might be slow to fall back in line, though.
Clay became council president, in part, by offering Republicans unprecedented influence over the council for a minority party. Clay plans to appoint
Republicans to chair some committees,a structure that Republican Minority Leader Michael McQuiilen said might never have otherwise existed for a
minority party.
"Indianapolis will now see a bipartisan committee structure in which both Republicans and Democrats will chair committees of the City-County Council,"
McQuillen said."I think that will give all the people of Indianapolis a beater chance to hear their voice and to move fonNard with the people's business."
But it also will reduce the role of Democrat majority.
Lewis,the first woman council president in Indianapolis, who had served in that role since 2012,called Clay's win a Republican takeover of the council.
"In our political world, we call it a coup, right?" Lewis said."So,you go to the other side that are not a part of your party and you do a power grab and
that's really what happened."
EXHIBIT
When asked if Clav would continue to be welcomed in the Democratic caucus. Lewis said."That's a great question " ~

Indianapolis-councilman-stephen-ciav/1007949001/)that Clay groped a boy more than a decade ~ip~~ ~~t,~ap~n~~~fppp@~Jq~?Q~lis
resident,told IndyStar Clay groped him when he was 13 or 14. BryanYs mother, Maxine Bryant,and a childhood friend, Chad Spann,told IndyStar
Jonathan Bryant told them about the alleged incident in the early 2000s.
Clay has denied wrongdoing and on Monday renewed his assertion that Lewis was behind recent media reports about the accusation.
"I do believe,in my own personal estimation,some of this wasfueled and fanned by the opposition," Ciay said.
Lewis denied that she had anything to do with the accusation.
"This brave young man came out and shared his story, and for his story to be overshadowed by politics, iYs really sad to me;'Lewis said."My heart goes
out to him as a victim. I don't know him, but I do apologize that my politics has overshadowed his bravery."
McQuillen said he was comfortable with Clay as president.
"In my conversation with President Ciay, he assured me there was no basis to the(accusation)," McQuillen said."I believe he's a man of his word."
Republicans last month expelled Councilor Jeff Millerfrom their caucus because of criminal charges he is facing that he fondled two girls at his home last
year. Miller, who remains engaged in council business, has pleaded not guilty to three felony charges.Every council Republican has called on Miller to
resign.
Clay has acknowledged he talked to police about Bryant's accusation more than a decade ago, but has emphasized no charges were filed. McQuillen
said that distinction made him comfortable with Ciay.
Clay's victory stunned many Democrats who supported Lewis. DemocratZach Adamson,who won re-election as vice president ofthe council,said he is
not sure what happens next.
"I'm notsure what priorities we will embrace now that we weren't doing before,"Adamson said.
The council president sets the direction for the CityCounty Council,selecting committee chairs and assigning proposals to committees.The council
president also receives slightly better compensation than rank-and-file members.
Councilors earn annual salaries of$11,400, plus per diems for attending meetings that can push the total to more than $1A,000.
The council president receives an additional $1,982 per year.The vice president, majority leader and minority leader each get an extra $1,320 per year.
Clay did not offer any specific plans that he has for the council under his leadership.
"The people who were able to vote made a clear decision of where they want to go and we believe that'sjust building on some of the things that the
former president has done and then building on that and improving some things that maybe were not done to the extent they could have been done,"
Clay said.
McQuillen offered the clearest indication of what is to come. Republicans will have greater control over committees.

President Clay,
When you have a spare moment,I would like to getsome closure an my contract.
have prepared two versions—one would cover the foil year of2018(on the same terms as my 2017 contract),and the
other would rover only the firstthree monthsofthis year(but could be renewed or extended). The intent ofthe three-
month contract isthat it would probably take at leastthat long forthe council presidentto selectsomeone else as
general counsel; for that person to be approved by both the RulesCommittee and the fu11 council;and for a reasonable
transition period. Also,the three month contract would be useful ifthere has not yet been a decision on whetherto
selectsomeone else asgeneral counsel. pbviously, I would preferthe one-year contract,but I need to have a contract
ofsame sort in place in order to get paid for my work in 2018.
Thank you for your consideration.

Neither our rules nor Robert's Rules mentions a motion or vote of no confidence. It would have no effect other than

2ABSENT.• Gray, Jackson
Councillor McQuillen asked for an explanation of this vote result. He said that he understood it
takes 13 votes one way or the other in orderfor a motion to pass. Fred Biesecker,General Counsel,
said that a motion on a procedural matter, which is what this is, only requires a majority of those
present,not a majority ofthe full body.
Councillor McQuillen said that he does not understand the need toremovethePresidentfrom office
when there are no allegations or violations recognized. He said that according to Sec. 151-1121 of
the Code,any allegations of violations on conduct ofa Councillor is to befiled with the Clerk and
referred to the Ethics Committee. He moved to send this discussion and motion to the Ethics
Committee. Councillor Coats seconded the motion.
Councillor Adamson said that this is a motion to amend the agenda, and is not an ethical debate.
There is nothing to send to committee at this tame.

59. Janumy 29,2018
Mr. Biesecker stated that in 2013, Councillor McQuillen supported a motion made by then-
Councillor Brian Mahern to do this very same thing,to set up a votefor a special order to remove
the president. There was no similar objection made at that time. He said that the rule is very clear
in Sec. 151-13 that no vote is to be made until a motion is made to place it on the agenda atleast a
week before the next meeting. He said that there is nothing in this motion with regard to ethics or
charges,butis simply a motion to follow procedure.
Councillor McQuillen said that there were no ethical concerns voiced in 2013,and he is concerned
that this motion is based on recent allegations in the media. Ifthat is the case,then this should be
handled through the processofthe Ethics Committee. Notdoingso would violate due process,and
he does not want to be a part of that. Mx.Biesecker said that a removal vote could not take place
untilFebruary 19,2018,and astherehasnotbeen any ethicscomplaintfiled,thereis norequirement
that anything be referred or heard by the Ethics Committee. The motion is simply to place a
proposed motion under New Business this evening to make the removal ofthe President a Special
Order atthe next meeting. Ifthis nnotion is adopted tonight under New Business,then the agenda
ofthe February 19,2018 Counci]meeting would include a vote on that motion. At that point,the
motion would notsimply be procedural,but would actually require 13 votesfor passage.
Withoutfurther objection,the agenda was adopted as amended.
