Consider the motion: I move to dismiss, in part, Mr. Koopman’s December 12, 2018, Ethics
Complaint, (1) for lack of jurisdiction as it relates to any and all claims for alleged violations
of Title 13 of Montana Code Annotated and any and all claims against the City of Bozeman
and Nest Collective, LLC; and (2) for failure to state a claim against all unnamed “numerous
public employees” and against the “John and Jane Does 1 through 30”; and stay further
proceedings on the remaining portions of Mr. Koopman’s complaint pending the issuance of
COPP’s findings, at which time, at the Board’s next regular meeting, or within 30 days,
whichever is sooner, the Board will meet and further review and consider the remainder of
Mr. Koopman’s Ethics Complaint.
