The Plaintif is suing these defendants

  • Phoenix Cannabis Coalition
  • PCC
  • Thomas Meadows


Plaintiff, Mickey Jones, for his complaint against defendants alleges as follows:

  1. Plaintiff is a single man in Maricopa County
  2. Defendant #1 is PCC or Phoenix Cannabis Coalition an Arizona corporation
  3. Defendant #2 is Thomas Meadows, a man who is treasurer of Phoenix Cannabis Coalition but being sued as an individual, 3625 S 16th Pl, Phoenix, AZ 85040
  4. Defendant #3 is Eric Johnson, 2536 E Whitton, Phoenix, AZ 85016

Last year in 2017, sometime after February 18, the Plaintiff, Defendant, #2 Thomas Meadows, Defendant #3 Eric Johnson and a number of other people had a meeting at Defendant #3, Eric Johnson’s house to plan the course of PCC or the Phoenix Cannabis Coalition. Eric Johnson’s house is at 2208 E Flower St, Phoenix, AZ

Defendant #2, Thomas Meadows was the only person who ran for office and he was elected the treasurer. He was probably elected by a unanimous vote.

The Plaintiff wanted to run for President, but didn’t because the Plaintiff is homeless and in the winter would have a hard time doing the job because it’s cold outside and the Plaintiff sleeps outside.

Nobody at the meeting ran for any of the other officers, so only the Treasurer’s job was filled with Defendant #2 taking it.

Sometime after that we had the normal PCC monthly meeting at Lawn Gnome bookstore which was located next door to Bud’s Glass Joint, which is at 907 North 5th Street in Phoenix.

Shortly before the meeting began, Defendant #2 asked the Plaintiff to run for President of PCC.

The Plaintiff told Defendant #2 that he did not want to run for President, because he was homeless and probably would not be able to do a good job. Defendant #2 said the Plaintiff would be a good president because of the Plaintiff’s involvement with court support, which is when people show up at criminal trials of people who are arrested for victimless marijuana crimes, in order to help them get a fairer trial.

Defendant #2 also said it didn’t matter if the Plaintiff was homeless.

Defendant #2 may have also said the Plaintiff would be a good president because of the work the Plaintiff did collecting thousands of signatures for AZFMR or Arizonans for Mindful Regulation initiative to legalize marijuana in 2016.

The Plaintiff then told Defendant #2 that he was willing to run for president, since Defendant #2 didn’t mind that the Plaintiff was homeless.

At this point in time Defendant #2 seemed to like the Plaintiff, probably because of their work together collecting signatures to legalize marijuana, and because of doing court support together.

If the Plaintiff remembers correctly he was having an interview with some people from Oregon or Washington about his RAD or Relegalize All Drugs group. While the Plaintiff was in that interview an election was held and the Plaintiff was elected by a more or less unanimous vote of the crowd attending the meeting, to be president of PCC or the Phoenix Cannabis Coalition. At least that is what the Plaintiff was told.

The Plaintiff was very nervous and gave a very short acceptance speech.

The next day, Defendant #2 told the Plaintiff that the election was invalid and that the Plaintiff was no longer the president of PCC.

That was despite the fact that the election was a unanimous vote of almost everybody attending the meeting, and that the election was the very same type of election that was used to elect Defendant #2 to the office of the PCC treasurer.

Defendant #2 has refused to give a reason for the election being invalid. The Plaintiff knows the election was 100% valid and legal.

At this point in time Defendant #2 seems to have a 100% change in attitude and now seems to hate the Plaintiff. Probably because he was fed lies by Defendant #3 Eric Johnson and/or Sergeant David Stephen Wisniewski, that the Plaintiff was a government snitch.

The Plaintiff thinks that Defendant #2 lied and said the election was invalid because Defendant #3 Eric Johnson and Sergeant David Stephen Wisniewski probably lied and told him that the Plaintiff was a government snitch.

When Defendant #2 lied and said the election was invalid, he violated his fiduciary responsibility as an officer of PCC. Defendant #2 also committed malfeasance of his office as treasurer of PCC. Something which should allowed to pierce the veil of the corporation and allowed Defendant #2 to be held personally responsible for his actions.

Sometime later, Defendant #2 again violated his fiduciary responsibility as an officer of PCC and committed malfeasance of office when he kicked the Plaintiff off of the PCC Facebook board members group.

The Plaintiff found out he had been kicked off of the Facebook group by Alex Gentry, who also was a board member of PCC at the time.

Defendant #2 came up with a cockamamie excuse for kicking the Plaintiff off of the Facebook group, along the line of the Plaintiff quit, or asked to be removed. But when you look at the time frame involved it’s pretty obvious that Defendant #2 kicked the Plaintiff off the group as a personal vendetta. Probably because he believes the lies that the Plaintiff is a government snitch.

After the Plaintiff complained about it, Defendant #2 added the Plaintiff back into the Facebook group.

Again Defendant #2 again violated his fiduciary responsibility as an officer of PCC and committed malfeasance of office which should allow the court to pierce the veil of the corporation and allow Defendant #2 to be held personally responsible for his actions.

The third, Defendant #2 probably violated his fiduciary responsibility as an officer of PCC and committed malfeasance of office when he participated in a kangaroo court run by Michelle “Mushee” Westinfield, (1527 E Mahone, Mesa, AZ 85204) who was at the time the president of PCC.

In that case Michelle “Mushee” Westinfield accused the Plaintiff of submitting his resignation from the PCC board, based on some statements made on Facebook. Statements which Michelle “Mushee” Westinfield has refused to define. The Plaintiff thinks this “event” may have been staged by Michelle “Mushee” Westinfield and Sergeant David Stephen Wisniewski to create a “Golf of Tokin” type of excuse to kick the Plaintiff off of the PCC board of directors, by members of the Safer Arizona board of directors.

When the Plaintiff said he was not resigning, Michelle “Mushee” Westinfield quickly called for a board meeting in a matter of a few hours. The Plaintiff was not invited to the board meeting, or even notified of the board meeting. At that board meeting, the Plaintiff was kicked off of the PCC board of directors. Michelle “Mushee” Westinfield ordered the board members present not to give any reason for their votes. Defendant #2 voted to kick the Plaintiff off of the PCC board of directors in that meeting.

Defendant #2, probably should have demanded that the Plaintiff be invited to the board meeting, and be giving an opportunity to defend himself against any charges. But Defendant #2 seemed more interested in lynching the Plaintiff.

The Plaintiff thinks that for the fourth time Defendant #2 may have violated his fiduciary responsibility as an officer of PCC and committed malfeasance of office when as a board member he allowed Michelle “Mushee” Westinfield to post a statement on the PCC Facebook page saying the Plaintiff has been kicked off of the PCC board of directors for something like “unprofessional conduct’.

The Plaintiff suspects that he was kicked off the PCC board of directors because many of them falsely thought he was a government snitch. And for exposing problems with the Safer Arizona initiative, which doesn’t completely legalize marijuana.

The Plaintiff suspects that Defendant #2, Defendant #3 Eric Johnson and Sergeant David Stephen Wisniewski have been spreading lies slandering the Plaintiff saying he is a government snitch, police informant or something like that.

The Plaintiff also suspects that Defendant #2, Defendant #3 Eric Johnson and Sergeant David Stephen Wisniewski told the people the people from Oregon or Washington, who the Plaintiff had just interviewed with about his RAD or Relegalize All Drugs group, the same lies, i.e., that the Plaintiff is a government snitch or something like that.

This action arises out of ARS 12-541.

These lies have probably not new and been going on for around 20+ years. Around the year 2000 or so the Plaintiff discovered that David Dorn, the owner of an insurance company, Dorn Agency was spreading lies that the Plaintiff was a government snitch or something like that. The Plaintiff was told this by Ernie Hancock.

The Plaintiff suspects that Ernie Hancock, or Ernest Hancock who is a Libertarian “publicity hound” is the person who has been spreading these lies for 20 years. Ernest Hancock can talk for hours and say next to nothing, usually repeating the same thing over and over. Ernest Hancock is a Libertarian equivalent of Republican Sheriff Joe Arpaio, who seems to love publicity, and can talk for hours on end and say nothing.

The Plaintiff also suspects that his lawyer Marc Victor has violated his lawyer/client relationship with his client and has been spreading these lies around for around 20 years or so. In fact Marc Victor’s law firm Victor and Hall owes the Plaintiff $3,000 they won for him. The Plaintiff thinks that Marc Victor’s law firm used these lies as an excuse to cheat the Plaintiff out of the $3,000. Marc Victor is a good friend of Ernie Hancock and David Dorn.

The Plaintiff suspects that marijuana criminal defense attorney; Tom Dean has also been spreading these lies around. The Plaintiff suspects that marijuana criminal defense attorney; Tom Dean has violated his lawyer/client relationship, because Tom Dean was the Plaintiffs attorney at Safer Arizona.

The Plaintiff suspects that Rain Baker, Stacy Theis, Kathy Inman, and Dave Inman have been spreading these lies around. And in fact the Plaintiff has evidence that Kathy Inman and Dave Inman have been spreading these lies around.

Rain Baker, Stacy Theis and Kathy Inman have all dealt with Marc Victor and Tom Dean in the past. The Plaintiff suspects Rain Baker, Stacy Theis and Kathy Inman were told these lies by Ernest Hancock, Marc Victor, Tom Dean or all of them.

The Plaintiff doesn’t think Defendant #2; Defendant #3 Eric Johnson and Sergeant David Stephen Wisniewski made up the lies on their own, but rather heard these lies from Tom Dean and/or Rain Baker and are just repeating them without verifying them. But that still is malfeasance of office for Defendant #2, and Defendant #3, Eric Johnson, and a reason to pierce the veil of the corporation.

The Plaintiff thinks that for the fifth time Defendant #2 and other members of the PCC board of directors have violated their fiduciary responsibilities as officers of PCC and committed malfeasance of office when as board members they deleted posts made by the Plaintiff to the PCC Facebook group. The Plaintiff suspects they are deleting some of his posts, because they want to demonize him for not supporting the Safer Arizona initiative. The

Plaintiff feels are his posts are reasonable and support the group’s goals to legalize marijuana, and end the government war on marijuana. This should be easily verifiable by looking at the Facebook log files.

Wherefore the Plaintiff respectfully requests the court:

  1. Proceed with a trial by jury upon issues triable;
  2. Pierce the veil of the corporation and order Defendant #2 and Defendant #3, Eric Johnson to be held personally liable for their actions, because these were not casual mistakes made accidently, but either intentional lies, or actions that would not be normally done in the operation of the corporation;
  3. Order the Defendants to stop spreading these lies;
  4. Order the Plaintiff to be restored to being the president of PCC;
  5. Order the Defendants to pay for the cost of educating the people the lies they are spreading are false, and that there is not a shred of evidence to indicate that the plaintiff is a government snitch or informant or ever has been;
  6. Award the Plaintiff damages to cover the pain and suffering caused by these lies;
  7. Award the Plaintiff damages to cover the pain and suffering caused by being rejected by PCC members because he was falsely labeled a government snitch;
  8. Award the plaintiff costs and fees incurred for the prosecution of this action;
  9. Award such other and further relief as the court deems just and proper.
