Ul!;di~ I. INTRODUCTION Plaintiff's respo~ does not question any ofthe facts applicable to Defendants' bases for ;!£,@" . .its Motion to. Di~or altematively its Motion for Summary Judgment. Instead, Plaintiffs g factual and ~sertions urge this Court lo iguore the filet that Plaintiff did not plead a claim of sexual assault because the requisite elements are not present based on the facts of tlus case and Plaintiff's own testimony. Plah1tiff attempts to characterize Defendants' Motion as "cynical" and "delusional" however, Defendants have taken the cle<tr la!lgxlage of the applicable Sections of the Texas Penal Code, tlmt she now attempts to apply to avoid dismissal based on statute of limitations, and applied that law to the facts as they stand. Defendants have no intent or expectation that the plea agreement si.gneq by Defendant Morris in the criminal proceedings against him be ignored by this Court. Defendants, however respectfully request that Plaintiff not be allowed to sidestep the law in this case, ignore its .own pleadings,. and asse1t unmeritorious arguments to avoid the clearly applicable two year statute of limitatibns o~r assault and invasions of privacy claims that she pled. as well as the administrative ~uisites under the Texas COI:mnission on RUJna:n Rights Act (TCHRA), directly rei~ employer liability in sex.ual harassment cases that .she wholly failed to satisfy. Q~ .Plaintiff's urging misses the mark and her argument~~ not enough to save her claims o;ff»- fi·om dismissal under the laW. As Def~ndants have al~ outlined the pertinent facts in its Motion, Defendants will spare the comt a recitation oD:Ve facts in this reply and squarely address 0~ Plaintiffs Response. As outlined herein, Deftfs respectlillly requests that Plaintiff's claims for assault and invasion of privacy be &issed or altematively, Defendants' Motion for ({@ Summary Judgment be grarited. ~QJ II. ~GUMENT AND AUTHORITIES A, Plaintiff never pled Sll__~ assault in this case aud her pleading contains no facts or citation to any la"!'-~l'lltute that would put Defendlmton sufficient notice of such a claim. ~U Plaintiff atten~~ <:tire her failure to plead sexual assault and/or assert any facts to meet the requisite elen ~of sexnal assault in her petition ~~s . by asserting that Defendants want to take the claims ~ere actually pled, "assault'' and ''invasion of privacy" "at face va1ue." 1 The Tex.as Rnles of Civil Procedure specifically state that pleadings. shall "consist of a statement in plain and concise language of the plaintiff's cause of .action..." 2 Liberal construction of the

If it cannot be reasonably inferred that the petition contains a given claim, then the claim cannot be somehow created to for instance, avoid a statute of limitatiOJts defense. 3 As will be further explained herein, the five year statute of limitations for a suit for perso11al injury is applied only when 'll» injtuy is as a ~'0· result of conduct that violates sexual assault, aggravated sexual assault, c~uous sexual abuse of a young child or childroo, 1:rafficki11g of persons, or compelling ~~tution. 4 Plaintiff now ~ claims thatthis is a sexual assault action but has pled nothing t~ Defendants fair notice that such a claim was being made.

Plaintiff indicates that Defendants "never once" cited the statute, Texas Civil Practice & Remedies Code Section 16.003(a) in its Motio11 to Dismiss and Motion for Summary Judgment to imply that Defendants did not cite to the statute because it does 110t apply. This is simply not the case. Interestingly, .although Plaintiff does not apply that same assertion to her own Petition which also does not once cite the Texas Penal Code for sexual assault, SectiliJ>=22.001{a)(l) , ijv even though she goes to great lengths to convince this comt that it somehcQould apply now in ~ order to .avoid the correct, two year statute of limitations for her as~nd invasion of privacy causes of action. ~~ B.

have had to cohlmit sexual assault under Section 22.011(a){l) of the Penal Code. As to the. first two ways to meet the requisite element of sexual assault, "penetration" is required. In her recitation of the facts, Plaintiff states that she felt certain that "she was physically violated because she had redness i11 her vaginal area and bruises on her a1m and "hip area" Although she did not feel she had been raped, she felt like .she had "b~touched" a11d @ she was sore in her "female regions", especially on the outside."16 Specifi~, Plaintiff testified ~ as follows: 0~ ~ Q: ...

In evaluating a similar situation where the plaintiff did in fact plead assault and sexual assault but the facts revealed tbat the statute of limitations had e:>.'Pired on the assault claim and the alleged actions of Defendants did not meet the elements and/defmition of sexual assault in the Texas Penal Code, the court determined that the defendant's motion fot sui11mary judgment on those grounds should be granted with prejudice. 19 Similarly here, Plaint~annot i}~y simply avoid the two-year statute of limitations for personal injW'y although ~oes not meet the ~ requisite elements for sexual assault in which the five-yem· statute of l~tions would apply.

As to Plaintiff's ilwasion of privacy claim, Plaintiff asserts that the "claim is a pari and parcel of her sexual violation."22 It seems that Plaintiff is trying to assert that the invasion of privacy claim must then have a five-year statute of limitations instead of a two-year limitations.

As set forth in Defendant's Motion, the ii1vasion of privacy statute oflimitation is clearly stated within Texas law as being two years. The fact that nude pictures were taken oi'5P'hintiff does not . ~~ suddenly extend the two year statute of limitations on an invasion Qivncy claim, and Plaintiff's point to. no. case law stating same. In fact, in Wood v. ~r Magazine, Inc., 736 ~ F.2d 1084 (5th Cir. 1984) plaintiff and her husband brought a~ against Hustler magazine alleging invasion of her ptivacy when it published a nude ,&to graph of her.

In response to Plaintiff's assertion that the TCHRA only applies to "actions in the. workplace which implicate the conditions of employment" Defetidants. first assert that the location of the sexual actions being on business trips does not negate the applicability and subsequent administrative requirement of the TCHRA. In Dorn Hecker v. Malibu Grand Prix Corp., 828 F.2d 307, 308 (5th Cir. 1987), the district court found for a plainti~1ployee who resigned because of sexual harassment that involved the following inci~\at occuncd m1 out-of-town business flips; (l) a marketing consultant hired by Mali~d sent on a business .~ ttip with plaintiff employee put his hands on her hips in an ai~cket line and dropped his pants in front of the passengers while waiting to board the aWt;ne, (2) he touched her breasts ¢~~ and (3) he put his stocking feet on a cocktail table d~y in front of her and "playfully" choked her when she complained. The plaintiff in Pt!!JY!Iecker filed suit for sexual harassment pmsuant to Title VII and the court consideretJ~~uch although the actions took place away fi•om the actual woi'kplace while oil busine~ps, analogous to the.incidents in the instant case, In Gazda v. Pioneer Chlor Alkall Co't{f/J!! 10 F.Supp.2d 656, 665 (5th Cir. 1997) the plaintiff- employee was subjected to unwm~~exual conduct While on a business trip and such actions were evaluated hy the Court ·~ Title VU sexual harassment. All ofthe incidents related to ~ the case took place on ~Jness trip away from the plaintiff's usual workplace however, this did not negate th~#ation of Title VJI sexual harassment claim. 111erefore, Plaintiff's assertion thatth~~ed sexual actions took place "outside the workplace, in fact in a remote state" are h~~levant.36 Seco11d, Plaintiffs assertion that tl1e TCHRA has no application here is also without merit especially to Defendant Edible Software. Jn Wciffie House, Inc. v. Williams, the Texas Supreme Court held that "employer liability for unwanted sexual touching by a coworker Pl.'s Resp. to Def.'s M/MSJ, at p. 31. (simply assault under Texas law given its 'offensive or provocative' nature) is limited to a tailored TCHRA scheme that specifically covers employer liability for sexual harassment." 37 Plaintiff contends that this is manifestly distin&itlishable be.cause "Monis didn't abuse Ms, Fanner to "affect a tangible aspect of the employment relationship."38 To affect a term, condition, or privilege of employment, the harassme~ust be sufficiently severe or pervasive to alter the conditions of the victim'~~loyment and create an abusive working environment. The alleged conduc~ust be both objectively offensive, meaning that a reasonable person woul~ ~ it hostile and abusive, and subjectively offensive, meaning that the vic~rceived it to be so." Further, it is examined under a ''totality of the cir~nces" test, which considers "the frequency of the discriminatory conduct~ severity; whether it is physically threateni11g. or hmniliating, or a me.re of.il~ ~. utterance; and whether it unreasonably interferes with an employee's work onnance. 39 { {{fj Plaintiff misstates th.e meaning of "affect a term, c~tion or privilege" of employment by ~~ stating that the conduct that forms the basis o~~tiffs claims must not be applicable to the TCHRA because Defendant Monis did n~Qe such actions with the intention to make an eJnployrnent decision or affect a con£1;;1>hm of her employment TI1is argument is in fact tlf nonsensical. There is no require1~at there be evidence that the employer "intended" to make an employment decisi~r affect a condition of her employment. TI1e key is the conditions imposed, 11ot ~mployer's state of mind.40 Here Defendant Morris' unwanted sexual touching, as ~~d by Plaintiff, is governed by the TCHRA as to employer liability (Defendant Edibl~~lity). As Defendant pointed out in its Motion, l'lai11tiff testified that this unwanted s~ouching did affect tenns and conditions of her employment because she felt uncomfortable around her supervisor Defendant Monis and began looking for other employment

App.- El Paso April 4,2002). because of the sexual harassment. 41 TI1erefore, Defendant'.s a.ssertion that Plaintiff cannot point to a single, "tenn, condition, or privilege of the plaintiff's employment" affected by the harassment is untrue.

Hostile work environment sexual harassment occurs when an employer's conduct ''has '0;~· #J; the purpose or effect of umeasonably interfering with an individual's worli0:.-fonnance or creating an intimidating, hostile, or offensive enviromnent." By Plainti~n recitation ofthe facts, Defendant Morris' conduct had the effect ofunrea.sonably crea~n intimidating, hostile ' ~"" at1d/or offensive envirotm1ent. She testified that she spoke wQ~fendant Monis about what happened while on the business trip and told him it was inap1~riate, \vt'ong and that she needed. ~ to find a different job. 42 Plaintiff did in fact start lo~~ for another J'ob due to Defendant Morris' conduct. 43 Her actions a11d feeling that. ~~auld not work with Defendant Manis ~ anymore also gives rise to a constructive alt~ of the te1ms or conditions of employment althongll not culminating in a tangible en~ent actiou.44 Plaintiff cmmot try to avoid the administrative pre-requisites of the 'I~~@)· now by a.ss.etting that there was no creation ofan . ~ intimidating, hostile or offensiv~iromnent. Tiris is wholly inapposite to Plaintiffs own testi1110ny. ~ A hostile work~Yonment sexual harassment claim was the exclusive remedy for Plaintiff to bring ~s{~~gaiust Defendant Edible for sncl1 conduct as asserted here, which took place on a busin~ip drui:ng her employment by Defendant Edible. The law is clear a11d also the legislati~~nt is also clear related to dmnage caps that conm1o11law claims do not have.

In determining that the sexual harassment statutes precluded state common-law claims, the Texas Supreme Court noted tbat the state statutes Def's MIMSJ, at p. 11 (citingFamrer Dep., at 27:13-16; 133:21-134:10, Ex. A).

have caps on compflnsatory and punitive damages available to a plaintiff that the common law claims did not have. Title VII has similar caps. The court noted that allowing conm1on Jaw claims to be pursued would allow plaintiffs to avoid those damage limitations.45 Allowing a common law claim to be pursued against Defendant Edible when the case falls within the purview of the TCHRA would be allowing Plaintiff not only to avoid the mandatory ~ administrative requirements but also to avoid damage limitations. ~Jf F. Defendants meet the.ir burden to establish the affirmativ~ d~~Q of limitations and therefore the alternative motion for summary judgments~ be granted.

Plaintiff is misplaced in her assertion that Defend~~1mot meet the summary judgment standard in this case that the Plaintiff cannot meet ~neuts of her causes of action.

Q~v That argument is inapplicable because the sm11maryjudrnt motion before the comt is based on affii1native defenses. 46 A defendant is entitle~9 ¢~ sununary judgment on an affnmative defense, such as limitations, if the defenddnclusively proves all the elements of the affinnative defense.

Prac. & Rem. Code §16.0045(a)(1)'s five (5) year limita~eriod." .However, as explained herein, Plaintiff has brought forth no competent ~ary judgment evidence that she in fact pled sexual assault or that the requirements of Section 22.ol 1 of the Penal Code were met for her Claims to fall under
