    DECLARATION OF ROY WARDEN IN SUPPORT OF MOTIONTO EXTEND TIME TO FILE ANSWER TO SUMMARY

    JUDGMENT

    I Roy Warden, the Plaintiff in Warden v Miranda, 11-CV

    00460 DCB BPV, appearing in forma pauperis, do herein declare,

    swear and affirm, as follows:

    1. I am the publisher of Arizona Common Sense, a political

    newsletter sent to 1,200 members of the local bar, law

    professors employed by the Rogers School of Law,

    members of the local and national media, etc.,

    2. Moreover; I am the Director of the Tucson Weekly Public

    Forum and a member of the National Institute for CivilDiscourse.

    3. Significant to the facts and legal issues set forth in this

    case: for the past seven years I have been employed as

    an unpaid political activist working on behalf of the people

    of Pima County, bringing to public view Tucson City Open

    Border Policy i.e., a specific, unwritten policy of Tucson

    City Government to entice and invite, aid and abet, and

    otherwise to encourage the illegal entry of impoverished

    Mexican citizens for the purpose of economic and political

    exploitation.

    4. The City of Tucson1, in response to my activity as political

    activist, has engaged in a pattern of retaliatory actions

    1 Tucson City Officials are often assisted by radical Pro-Raza groups.Defendant Tucson City Manager Richard Miranda is a member of Chicanospor la Causa, a local group significantly involved in the economic and politicalexploitation of impoverished Mexican citizens.

    which continue even to the date of signing of this

    Declaration in Support of Motion.

    5. As a result of the retaliatory arrests and prosecutions,

    which form the basis for this suit, I am absolutely indigent.

    6. This means:

    A. My total monthly income is $200.00 in food stamps.

    B. I usually have a place to sleep in exchange for the

    performance of gardening and custodial services.

    C. Several times I have been homeless; I once resided for

    several months in facilities provided by Primavera.

    D.I spend a significant amount of time searching for any

    gainful employment for the payment of at least

    minimum wage.

    E. My impoverished circumstances, caused by Defendant

    City of Tucsons retaliatory actions, has placed

    enormous pressures upon me, and those I live with,

    resulting in continuing medical treatment.

    F. I am often reduced to using computers provided by the

    public library to compose and print the legal pleadingsin this case.

    7. Additionally; I am presently engaged preparing oral

    argument for an Appeal to Pima County Superior Court,

    action #CR 20130747-001, where Tucson City Officials

    have prosecuted me for four years and convicted me for

    standing on the public square to challenge Defendants

    Open Border Policy, in violation of a Transparently

    Invalid Condition of Release Order which suspended my

    First Amendment rights, in express violation of the law set

    forth in Walker v Birmingham, 388 U.S. 307 (1967), Matter

    2

    of Providence Journal Co., 820 F.2d 1342, 1343, State v

    Chavez, 123 Ariz. 538 (1979), and A.R.S. 13-3967.

    8. Additionally; my elderly father who resides in Santa Maria

    California, is demonstrating clear signs of dementia, which

    may require my presence in California within the next

    several weeks to attend hearings.

    9. And finally; immediately subsequent to a story I published

    on April 02, 2013 in Arizona Common Sense regarding

    Tucson City Councilman Steve Kozachik urinating in public,

    Ive received a series of threatening and harassing phone

    calls which will be the subject of a TPD investigation, as

    TPD Lt. Wildblood # 34974 so informed me on April 04,

    2012, and further investigation by federal authorities.

    10. The stress created by these phone calls, some of which

    were inspired by an ad taken out on Craigs List offering to

    provide phone sex, has resulted in the complete

    emotional breakdown of my common law wife, and her

    resultant arrest on April 06, 2013.

    11. Frankly; I am presently overwhelmed with the challenge ofeking out whatever meager living I can manage, dealing

    with family issues created by intense stress consequent to

    the numerous acts of first amendment retaliation engaged

    in by Defendant Tucson City Officials, dealing with my

    fathers possible commitment in California, educating

    myself in legal procedure, researching the law, protecting

    my family from continuing acts of first amendment

    retaliation by Tucson City Officials, (which will be the basis

    for an Supplemented Complaint in this case or a whole

    new case filing), while at the same time preparing the

    3

    4/5

    documents necessary to answer Defendants Motion for

    Summary Judgment.

    CONCLUSION

    Defendant Tucson City Officials enjoy enormous tactical ad-

    vantages in this case, including, dozens of attorneys and

    paralegals who work full time protecting Tucson City Officials

    from the consequences of their Open Border Policy, all paid for

    at taxpayer expense.

    Here, its not a matter of David and Goliath revisited;

    meeting face to face in a modern Court of Law.

    Here, its a matter of David, hobbled by poverty, with one leg

    broken, one eye gouged out, and one hand tied behind his back;

    all conditions consequent to retaliatory acts committed by

    Goliaths Cronies, who are the Defendants in this case, prior to

    David even entering the arena.

    Here, there is not even the remotest appearance of justice and

    fair play.

    In the interests of justice Plaintiff prays the Court to, at least in

    part, equalize the scales of justice and to grant the relief soughtby Plaintiffs Motion to Extend Time.
