The non-profit Reveille Foundation is refusing by a Mr Friedman, any 

interviews by media which leads one to believe they have something to hide.

 With false PO boxes and other discrepancies and failure to provide the services that were

 promised to 32 veterans in the former Ramada hotel at the 

 Portland  Oregon's airport area their lack of transparency is very

 frustrating for those investigating this 501c3 if in fact they are as

Steven Masone checked their EIN with the IRS and no such EIN

 appears on the public EIN # check system for Non-Profits on the

 IRS website. Steven Masone of CCHR Human Rights Group of

 Oregon and U.S. Veteran-former investigative reporter, spoke with

 Mr. Fredman whose email is listed on Revielle Foundation's website

 said, "Mr. Freidman hemmed and hawed about the phony mail box

 in a property that we already verified with the property owner's

 work crew that no one could have had the adress as

 the place was vacant for the last two years." Steven asone also

 added, "He even denied the Fox 12 KPTV News of Portland video

 showing Black Mold on their newscast was false, even though that

 and rat infestation is why health officials shut the place down. I also

 interviwed a Mr. Spitzer by phone, the supervisor of the VA Per

 Diem unit that authorizes the payments to Revelle Foundation,

 and he would not  tell us the wherabots of the 32 Vets who need to

 be medically triaged for being left in  in rooms with black mold. "

    After being in the Hospitality business for 30 years, I have found that first
    impressions set the customer's expectations and has the greatest effect
    on their decisions to be a repeat customer. "You have only have one
    chance to make a first impression!"



  • My first impression was when I called to confirm my reservation.
    No AI or third party live or software annoucements etc... that are cold
    and impersonal messages...but a personal greeting by General Manager
    Eric Peluschenko. I was impressed.



  • When I arrived, Athena at the front Desk was sincerely friendly and
    even helped me personally with my baggage to my very nice 2nd floor
    King room. Checking out, on front desk was Barbara, who was as sincerely helpful and competent as Athena.


  •  Now a snack at their great trendy kitchen & Bar....where Grace, the Bartender and great facilitator of keeping her customers in ingaing conversations, skilled in knowing how to "work entertaining conversations of customers, it felt like a re-run of a combo "FRIENDS-SEiNFIELD-CHEERS EPISODE while muti- tasking her orders not mIssing A beat! My Garlic fries were the Bomb!

  • At breakast, my server, Trey, was right there with his contemporaries
    with frienly banter and professional service. He recommded the Homade
    "Spam & Whisky Bacon Signature breakfast, with homemade O'brian
    potatoes, two eggs to order, and choice of toast... and I chose the marbles rye toast...excellant through and through! We talked about Spam festivals as one in Southern Oregon in Shady Cove was very popular, but not sure if it has resurrected since pandemic. The Head Chef...Troy Sasazzmann created the delicious homeade Spam that I would bet on to win first place in any 'Spam Festival Competiton Contest!"
    Safe part of Portland, Safe underground parking.

  •   know they have great management, and production is

  •  the Basis of Morale! High Morale = High Customer

  •  Satisfaction. ~SM

 MOTION FOR CONTEMPT & REMEDIAL ORDER Disability Rights Oregon Page 2 511 SW 10th Avenue, Suite 200 Portland, OR 97205 (503) 243-2081 I. Motion Plaintiff Disability Rights Oregon (DRO) hereby moves this Court pursuant to its inherent authority to enforce its own orders, to impose civil contempt sanctions, and to issue writs to require compliance with its own injunctions or judgements. See Stone v. City & Cnty. of San Francisco, 968 F.2d 850, 856 (9th Cir. 1992), as amended on denial of reh’g (Aug. 25, 1992) (federal courts have “wide latitude” and “inherent power” to enforce their “lawful orders through contempt). The federal rules confer on federal courts the authority to issue injunctions. Fed. R. Civ. Pro. 65. The rules specify who is bound by those orders, including the “parties” to a case. Fed. R. Civ. Pro. 65(d)(2). The All Writs Act also provides federal courts with the ability to safeguard the integrity of their proceedings and judgments. 28 U.S.C § 1651(a)(“The Supreme Court and all courts established by Act of Congress may issue all writs necessary or appropriate in aid of their respective jurisdictions and agreeable to the usages and principles of law.”); see also Doe #1 v. Trump, 458 F.Supp.3d 1220, 1223 (“There must be some connection between the underlying claims and the newly-challenged conduct for that conduct sufficiently to interfere with the Court’s jurisdiction to support an extraordinary writ under the All Writs Act”). Plaintiff DRO respectfully asks this Court to use its “inherent power to enforce compliance” with its own permanent injunction and to issue appropriate remedial orders including but not limited to levying civil contempt. Shillitani v. United States, 384 U.S. 364, 370 (1966). II. Brief Memorandum In 2002, after a bench trial, this Court issued a permanent injunction requiring Defendants to “ensure that persons who are declared unable to proceed to trial” be committed “as soon as practicable” to the state psychiatric hospital or other suitable treatment facility “in a Case 3:02-cv-00339-AN Document 540 Filed 01/07/25 Page 2 of 26 MOTION FOR CONTEMPT & REMEDIAL ORDER Disability Rights Oregon Page 3 511 SW 10th Avenue, Suite 200 Portland, OR 97205 (503) 243-2081 reasonably timely manner, and completed not later than seven days after the issuance” of an appropriate order finding the individual unfit to proceed to trial. ECF 51. For years, Defendants maintained compliance with the permanent injunction. However, starting in the Fall of 2018, Defendants have been largely out of compliance with only brief periods of compliance. At the last hearing in this matter, Defendants stated that they had no projection of when they would come back into compliance with the permanent injunction. Cooper Decl. Ex. A at 27. During the last few years of noncompliance, at least two jail detainees found unable to aid and assist have died while waiting for a hospital bed, as a result of complications of their mental illnesses and the related inability to eat or drink. Cooper Decl. at ¶3-5. Hundreds of other detainees have spent weeks or months languishing in jail, often in isolation and without treatment, while their conditions worsened. The human costs of Defendants’ noncompliance have been enormous. Plaintiff DRO seeks relief from this Court due to Defendants lack of an immediate plan to comply with the permanent injunction. III.
