Sue Scheff was sued when her other case of WWASP versus Sue Scheff was pending and it lasted longer than the WWASP case.  The case was in state court in southern Utah.  the story was she claimed she won but no one has ever seen any order to show this.  it was kept quiet.

Did this case get settled out of court or did it go to trial?  Was it a civil lawsuit?

Wonder if the owners of Red Rock would be forthcoming with any information about any lawsuit against this facility?
Frank and Melanie Habibian.

There was a case brought against Red Rock Canyon School in 2001.  Alvin and Cynthia Robertson brought a suit on behalf of their minor son. This suit listed Melanie Habiban as the owner; Sherman Habiban as the Unit Manager; and J Todd Hockabury as the Admissions Director.

Why would Sue Scheff be sued?  She doesn't own Red Rock.  I'm confused.  :question:

The fake press release above was paid for and written by Sue Scheff's friend, fattie Isabelle Zehnder. The "Sue Scheff" posted it above. The real and true press wrote the following about a famous lawyer who beat the hell out of Sue Scheff and the case she filed against his client was DISMISSED:

"Lawyer, Philip Elberg, of Medvin & Elberg of Newark, New Jersey, sharply criticized Scheff and other people who refer parents to programs for troubled teens. ?People in this industry have consistently used their money and their access to lawyers to silence critics of the industry and this may be one of those examples,? Elberg said. ?Sue Scheff is simply another person in the industry of people who make money from the plight of frightened parents.??

http://Anonymous said... Let's get one thing clear: Isabelle Zehnder and Sue Scheff are doing the fake "press" postings. Sue Scheff won only by default, meaning Carey Bock did not show up. [u][b]Sue Scheff is like a street prostitute: She's been around the block so many times, nobody wants to hear her sing and dance anymore for fear of catching something. She needs to get a real job.

You can see the filings of the Salt Lake case by opening a FREE account with PACER.  The other cases are not posted there I think because they are not at that court level.  you would have to contact the city court where the case if filed.

Do a search for Abe Dalley.  The guy has a long history with the troubled teens industry, including Red Rock Ranch Academy, a wilderness therapy program that was closed in 2002.  Red Rock Ranch Academy is the program where Katie Lank fell and later died from the injuries she sustained.  According to advocate Catherine Sutton, it was Sue Scheff of PURE who referred Katie Lank to Red Rock.  Gayle Palmer DeGraff was the admissions director.  Palmer/DeGraff is the same person who owned the program where Catherine Sutton's daughter, Michelle, died from dehydration in 1990.

From Struggling Teens:

RED ROCK RANCH ACADEMY IS CLOSING
(November 20, 2002) Abe Dalley, owner of Red Rock Ranch Academy, St. George Utah, 888-921-597, announced to Woodbury Reports Inc. that the outdoor program is in the process of closing. It should not be confused with Red Rock Canyon School.

Parents Sue Over Girl's Hiking Death Wednesday, May 29, 2002

BY MICHAEL VIGH THE SALT LAKE TRIBUNE

Last Christmas Day teen-ager Katherine Lank was hiking in southern Utah with two of her classmates from a school for troubled youths when she slipped and fell down a deep crevice. Lank, 16, suffered massive head trauma and died three weeks later at a Las Vegas hospital. On Tuesday, her parents, Gregory and Moira Lank of South Carolina, filed a $6 million wrongful-death lawsuit in U.S. District Court against the Red Rock Canyon School, based in St. George.

School officials violated several state regulations and failed "to take all reasonable measures to ensure the safety of Red Rock School students," according to allegations in the lawsuit, filed by St. George attorney Bryce Dixon. The suit also says the hike was too difficult for inexperienced hikers and that there were an insufficient number of staff members to supervise it. Because he had not seen the lawsuit, Red Rock executive director Abe Dalley declined to comment.

According to the school's Web site, Red Rock Canyon School is a state-licensed treatment facility for adolescents "with behavioral or emotional problems who require a level of structure and treatment beyond that which is available in traditional outpatient clinics, but who do not require inpatient psychiatric care." The suit says that on Dec. 25, 2001, four staff members took 10 students on a hike through the Naming Caves in rural Washington County. During the hike, Lank and two other students were allowed to hike unsupervised, the suit claims. A short time later, Lank was critically injured. She died on Jan. 13, 2002.

The lawsuit alleges that Dalley waited about an hour before calling an air ambulance. It was another 1 1/2 hours before the chopper arrived from University Medical Center in Las Vegas. School officials should never have "taken a large group of students to a dangerous area" with only one radio and no medical equipment, the suit said. "Management did not have a plan in place to efficiently handle emergencies or accidents," the suit states.

"Because of the defendants' breaches of their duties, Katie Lank suffered extreme physical and mental pain, shock, agony and suffering prior to her death." The suit, which accuses the school of negligence and breach of contract, asks for $5 million in compensatory damages, $1 million in punitive damages and attorney fees. The Lanks have also demanded a jury trial. [email protected]
