By responding to any of the Interrogatories and Requests for Production of
Documents below, Plaintiff does not concede that the information requested is relevant or
admissible in this litigation.

objection, Plaintiff states the following:
-2-
Case 1:12-cv-00053-MSK-BNB Document 150-5 Filed 10/04/13 USDC Colorado Page 25 of

RE: Scott v. CCD - Defendant's Sixteenth Supplemental Disclosures
Carol –
We tried WMP, Corel Draw, VLC and RealPlayer. Our IT person also tried the CCTV DVR viewers on this
website: http://www.cctvcamerapros.com/Surveillance-DVR-Downloads-s/82.htm. In addition, he reports:
I actually tried renaming the file to .avi or .wav and didn’t seem to make a difference. We even tried running
a utility against the DSF file that would normally tell us codecs needed to play the file, manufacturer of the
software, etc . . and it didn’t come back with any information at all.
Usually if this is a true media file, VLC would have been able to open and play it. VLC plays
EVERYTHING! But again unfortunately not even vlc player would do anything for this file.
There has to be some kind of proprietary software that this file was used to create it.
If the file you have has the extension .dsf, providing us another copy will not help. That is a graphics file extension,
which Corel Draw should have read. What you have is not a graphics file; it’s a video of some sort.
If I’m permitted to view it, I can’t imagine the problem with recording a video of the screen. I’ll come by at 11:00
tomorrow.

We expect to get a response from our IT people tomorrow. Have you heard anything from your IT people? It seems

While we have no problem letting you watch the DVD on one of our computers, we cannot allow anyone to record from
any of our computers. We have contacted IT and are waiting for a response from them regarding the formatting issue.
We hope to provide you with a format that is readable on your computer as soon as possible. If neither of our IT

I guess I should note, too, that you stated that you had trouble viewing the files, that Windows Media Player initially
would not play the file, that you disregarded that error message and were ultimately able to play the file after couple
of additional steps. You walked me through those steps on the phone, but WMP would not play the file for us, nor
ultimately would VLC using the same approach you recommended.

Hi, Carol –
The files continue to be unreadable in WMP or VLC. We have asked our IT folks to take a look, and I am
downloading a trial version of Corel Draw, which my Google search suggests will play it.
Please consult your IT folks and see if you can either convert the file or use your Windows Media Player (or another
program such as Real Player) to record the video into a useable format as you play it.
Thanks.

Hi Amy,
As we just discussed over the phone, both files on the disc I sent you opened when I tried them this morning, but are not
playing on your computer. We are working to find out now whether there is a way to change the file extension; in the

way.

Carol –
Thanks for sending over the disk. However, we are unable to read either file.
The file labeled 10000005.dsf appears to be corrupt. When trying to copy from the disk, we get a dialog box saying
“Can’t read from source file or disk.” This is often the message you get when a file is corrupt.
We are not able to read the other file with either Windows Media Player or VLC, a slightly more powerful media
player. The file extension is “.dsf” which appears to be a type of proprietary graphics program:
http://www.fileinfo.com/extension/dsf
http://www.daz3d.com/products/daz-studio/daz-studio-what-is-daz-studio/
I can’t imagine that’s the format the DPD used. What is the file extension on the files you’ve been viewing in
Windows Media Player?
Thanks.

Amy,
This is a DVD with two video recordings. On the copy I have, one of the recordings (beginning with the number “09”) is
66.7 MB. Another recording (beginning with the number “10”) is 54.1 MB.
Let me know if you have any issues opening the files. If you have a Windows operating system, you’ll likely have to use
Windows Media Player.

RE: Extension and request
Wendy –
Thanks and we are happy to receive and review the cover letters, but they leave a good deal of relevant information
out, as I understand it. Your expert has spent a good deal of time critiquing the activities that we are billing for; it
seems reasonable to know what activities H&E bills Denver for. To get this, we’d need the billing records. If you
are concerned about privilege, perhaps we could pick a couple of recent but closed cases. Let me know if this
approach would work for you.
Thanks.

Hi Amy:
I am not aware of any case law which permits additional discovery after the acceptance of an offer
of judgment. Additionally, with respect to open records requests, the City Attorney’s Office does
provide the detailed billing records because we would first need to redact all detailed information,
which would require us to expend a great deal of time and expense. Rather, in response open
request, the City produces monthly cover letters which the contract attorneys are required to send
in addition to the detailed billing statement. The cover letter includes the monthly amount which
has been billed, the billing rates, and any adjustments made to the amount billed before payment is
made.
While Denver does not agree that such information is relevant or that or Plaintiff is entitled to
obtain such information through discovery or an open records request at this stage of the
proceedings, we would like to be as cooperative as possible. Therefore, in the interest of
cooperation, we will agree to provide the above-referenced cover letters (as the City would provide
in response to an open records request) which show the monthly amounts billed in all cases in
which the City Attorney’s Office for the litigation claims section has retained Hall & Evans as
outside/conflict counsel in the past two years. As indicated above, the cover page will also reflect
the billable rate for partners, associates and paralegals. While most of the cases are not likely

comparable to an ADA Title II case, the cover letters reflecting the monthly amounts billed in all
cases for which Hall & Evans has been retained as outside/conflict counsel by the litigation claims
section at any time within the past two years will be provided.
We should be able to assemble this information and get it to you sometime next week.
Thanks.

Hi Amy:
We have no objection to your extension of time. As a result of my current schedule, Joe should be
easier to reach. Because I currently have so many things scheduled outside of the office, there is
typically a delay in my ability to respond. However, I do apologize for the delay.
Thanks.

Wendy & Joe –
Our reply brief is due during a week when I’m out of town. Would Defendants oppose a motion for extension to
October 4, 2013?
Also, given that your expert’s firm, Hall & Evans, has represented the City in a number of matters – including the
Ulibarri matter -- we’d like to request that the City provide us with copies of H&E’s bills to the City, including time
detail, for the past two years.
Thanks.
