Cramer files second tort claim against commissioners, county
SANDPOINT — Bonner County resident Rick Cramer is seeking a total of roughly $1.5 million spread across two tort claims filed in connection to his being trespassed from county commission meetings earlier this year.
A tort is a claim filed by an individual who was injured by the wrongdoing of a federal employee acting in the scope of his or her official duties. The claim requests the reimbursement of injury or damages caused by the employee’s wrongdoing.
Cramer initially filed a tort claim, often a precursor to a lawsuit against a governmental agency, in February after he was trespassed from, and subsequently arrested at, the Bonner County Administration Building for refusing to leave the premises. The notice of trespass came from Commissioner Luke Omodt after he claimed Cramer had repeatedly disrupted county business meetings.
