J The County agreesthat for purposesof its summaryjudgment motion only, all of the facts

4 containedin the Joint Statementof Undisputed Facts are assumedto be true. Nevertheless,some

5 of those facts are irrelevant and immaterial becausethey have no bearing on the outcome of the

6 caseunder the governing substantivelaw. "Material facts which would preclude entry of
n summaryjudgment are those which, under applicable substantivelaw, may affect the outcome of

8 the case. The substantivelaw will identify which facts are matenal." Baccarat Fremont Dev. v.

5 V. King, Gail Steele,V/ilma Chen, Keith Carson,Scott Haggerty, the County of Alameda, and

6 the County of Alameda Board of Supervisors(collectively,"County''), object to and move to


- strike the Expert Report of Abigail A. Kohn, Ph.D (the "Expert Report"); and the declarationsof

8 Donald Kilmer (and the exhibits attachedthereto); Daryl Davis; Duane Darr (and the exhibits

9 attachedthereto); JessB. Guy (and the exhibits attachedthereto);Virgil McVicker; Mike

10 Fournier (and the exhibits attachedthereto); Russell Nordyke and Sallie Nordyke (and the

z,= I2 In addition to numerous individual objections set forth below, the County objectsto and
o =

É . 4
u 3
13 moves to strike Plaintiffs' Expert Report and declarationson two grounds.
t 9 ¿
z.? l4 First, the Expert Report and declarationsare irrelevant to the extent they addresswhether
O g i
ø t E
+ Y 15 gun possessionmay constituteexpressiveconduct. The County's Motion for Summary
< À
- = i
=
l6
v t A
Judgment assumesthat gun possessionunder certain circumstancesmay convey a messageto
ô k
É , q
< ì T7 others' Accordingly, with respectto this issue,the Expert Report and declarationsdo not have
T Z
( J e
- r
É, 4. 18 "any tendencyto make the existenceof any fact that is of consequenceto the determination
of the
Ð
'.i&. t9 action more or less probable than it would be without the evidence." (Federal Rule of Evidence

20 ["FRE"] 401). Thus, the evidenceis irrelevantand inadmissible.(FRE 402).


2l A court may exclude evidencerelating to uncontestedissues. See lVilder Enterprises,Inc.

22 v. Allied ArtistsPicturesCorp.,632F.2d 1135,1I44 (4ù Cir. 1980)("We find no abuseof

23 discretion in the court's exclusion of testimony that was simply cumulative to proof suppliedby

24 stipulation'") Additionally, "Rule 403 permits the court to exclude evidence if its probative

25 value is substantially outweighed by the dangerof unfair prejudice, confusion of the issues,

26 misleading the jury, or needlesspresentationof cumulative eviderlce." Rogersv. Raymark

27 Industries,Inc.,922F.2d1426,1430(gth
Cir. 1991).Sinceitisuncontestedthatgunpossession
