Appellant and
Cross Respondent.
Houghton, P.J. -- Robert Dingman appeals his conviction of 16 counts of first degree theft
and 11 counts of money laundering.1 He argues that the trial court erred in denying his discovery
requests.2  We agree and reverse and remand.
Dingman owned a business called Quality Home Enclosures (QHE), which installed

XXXVIII, XXXIX, XLI, XLII, XLIII, XLIV, XLV, XLVI, XLVIII, XLIX, LI, LII, LIII.
2 In the unpublished portion of this opinion, we decide that prosecution for theft and money
laundering violates double jeopardy, and we reject Dingman's arguments based on insufficiency of
the evidence and instructional error.  He raises other assignments of error that we do not address
because we reverse and remand, namely:  ineffective assistance of counsel, sentencing error, and
evidentiary error he raises pro se.
The State cross-appealed, raising two issues but dropped its claim that the trial court
improperly dismissed some of the counts.  Because we reverse and remand, we do not address its
remaining restitution argument.

residential sunroom additions.  Starting in March 2001, he distributed sunrooms manufactured by
Four Seasons.  In February 2002, Four Seasons contacted QHE, concerned about QHE's
financial condition.  In March 2002, Dingman hired a business analyst, who concluded that QHE
would fail as a business.  In April 2002, Four Seasons terminated its agreement with QHE.
The events leading to the criminal charges and convictions are as follows:
On June 6, 2001, Kent and Joyce Sharpe entered into a contract with QHE for a Four
Seasons sunroom.  They gave Dingman a $15,000 deposit at that time.  On February 27, 2002,
they paid him $7,652.75 for materials.  In March, Dingman began preparing the site for the
sunroom, and he poured a concrete slab by April 18.  QHE did no further work.  Four Seasons
ultimately installed the sunroom.  Count I, theft.3
Georgia and Louis Murphy entered into a contract for a sunroom on September 21, 2001.
They gave Dingman a $10,000 deposit.  On October 13, they gave him an additional check for
materials.  QHE did limited work at the site by August 2002, but then its work ceased.  Count
VII, theft.
On October 2, 2001, Virginia and Scott Klemann entered into a contract with QHE for a
sunroom and a kitchen remodel.  On January 2, 2002, through a financing arrangement, they paid
Dingman the full amount due under the contract.  Count XI, money laundering.  In June, Virginia
spoke with Dingman and he told her that he was having financial problems.  When she accused
him of using their money for other projects, he responded, "that's how business works." 12

check from the Klemanns to pick up the materials, which they gave him. Another company
eventually installed the sunroom.  Count X, theft.
Vicki Platts-Brown and Ronald Brown entered into a contract with QHE for a Four
Seasons sunroom in October 2001.  They paid a $22,260 deposit.  In early March 2002, the
Browns made a $16,695 payment.  Count XIV, money laundering.  In October 2002, after a
building permit was issued, they spoke with Dingman, who said he was restructuring his business.
Dingman contacted the Browns a few days later and told them he needed more money; he stated
that the money they had previously paid had been used for operating expenses and IRS payments.
The Browns asked for a refund and Dingman stated that he did not have the money.  Count XII,
theft.
Ron and Marie Ressler entered into a contract for a sunroom.  They received financing on
November 30, 2001, and their bank submitted a check for the entire amount of the contract.
Count XVII, money laundering.  QHE completed a small amount of work on the project.
Dingman met with the Resslers and told them he had not paid for their Four Seasons sunroom and
asked them to change to another brand.  They agreed.  Dingman later did not pick up the new
sunroom materials, and he did not complete the installation.  The Resslers obtained a civil
judgment against Dingman.  Four Seasons eventually installed their sunroom.  Count XV, theft.
Sean Tam and Amy Lam contracted with QHE for a sunroom on November 23, 2001.  On
March 5, 2002, they paid a $15,500 deposit.  Count XIX, money laundering.  After no work had
been done, Amy contacted Dingman in July to cancel the contract.  They never received a
sunroom or a refund.  Count XVIII, theft.
On January 8, 2002, Darlene Miller and Carol Kuhns entered into a contract with QHE for
a greenhouse addition to their residence.  On February 9, a QHE employee  collected $11,976
from them.  QHE contractors poured footings in September.  In October, after Miller and Kuhns
learned that QHE was going out of business, they unsuccessfully tried to contact the company to
cancel the agreement.  QHE did not do any additional work.  Count XX, theft.
Cindy Taylor and James Mathers contracted with QHE in February 2002.  They paid a
$7,365 deposit and a month later paid another $7,365 deposit.  In September, Dingman worked
two days on the property.  On October 17, Taylor spoke with Dingman, who stated he was
closing his business.  Four Seasons eventually built the sunroom.  Count XXVI, theft.
In April 2002, Vanessa and David Dunivan hired QHE to build an addition and remodel
their kitchen.  On July 2, they gave Dingman a check to pay for cabinets, as some work had been
started on the kitchen by this time.  Home Depot contacted the Dunivans in July to say that the
cabinets had been returned.  Dingman told Vanessa there had been a mix-up with the check used
to pay for the cabinets.  After additional communications back and forth about the cabinets,
Vanessa met with Dingman in October, and he told her that the IRS had taken his money.  The
Dunivans eventually removed Dingman's materials from their home and hung a "No Trespassing"
sign.  23 RP at 1992.  The project was not finished.  Count XXXIV, theft.
Eddie and Vevely Smith entered into an agreement with QHE on June 3, 2002.  They
received financing for the project and paid QHE the contract amount on July 8.  Count XXXVIII,
money laundering.  No work was ever done.  Count XXXVII, theft.
John and Tok Sun Regan contracted for a sunroom on June 14, 2002, and paid a $10,000
deposit.  In early August, after having trouble getting QHE to start work, John paid an additional
$10,000 to Dingman.  Count XLI, money laundering.  QHE did some foundation work in early
September.  John had additional discussions with Dingman to try to get him to perform additional
work; Dingman refused to return the money and did not perform any additional work.  Count
XXXIX, theft.
Lorraine and Fred Ferguson entered into a contract with QHE for a sunroom.  They paid a
deposit for materials on July 17, 2002.  Count XLIII, money laundering.  QHE did not apply for
permits for the site and no work was ever done.  Count XLII, theft.
Alice and Allen DeSart contracted with QHE in July 2002.  They paid Dingman $4,000 on
August 20, 2002.  Count XLV, money laundering.  Although the DeSarts contacted Dingman
several times, he never worked on the project.  Count XLIV, theft.
June and Wilford Gosnell entered into a contract with QHE for a sunroom in July 2002.
On July 20, they paid Dingman $13,600.  Count XLVIII, money laundering.  Dingman started to
prepare the site in August.  The Gosnells learned that the check Dingman used to pay for the
building permit bounced.  No additional work was done, despite effort by the Gosnells to get
Dingman to perform the work.  Four Seasons eventually stepped in and built the sunroom.  Count
XLVI, theft.
Dree Snider and Liesl Bohn contracted for a sunroom in July 2002.  They paid a deposit
and on October 8 paid an additional $10,829.20 to Dingman for materials.  After speaking with
Dingman and telling him that she did not think he would do the work, Bohn tried to stop payment
on the check but was too late.  Count LI, money laundering.  At the end of October, Dingman
told Bohn that he had many projects to complete before starting her project.  That was the last
contact the homeowners had with Dingman.  Count XLIX, theft.
On August 1, 2002, QHE agreed to build a sunroom for Regina Wade (now Keller).  She
wrote a $10,000 check.  Within the three-day revocation period in the contract, she asked for her
money back.  Count LIII, money laundering.  Dingman never returned the money.  Count LII,
On March 19, 2003, the Pierce County Sheriff's Department searched Dingman's house.
It seized nine computers.  A detective created a mirror image copy of the computers' hard drives
using a program called EnCase.
On January 17, 2006, by third amended information,4 the State charged Dingman with 21
counts of first degree theft under RCW 9A.56.020(1)(a)5 and .030(1)(a),6 and 33 counts of money
laundering under RCW 9A.83.020(1)(a).7
On July 1, 2004, the State provided Dingman with some discovery.  It included a report
containing information about the mirror image hard drive copies having been created using
EnCase.
In August 2005, Dingman moved for additional discovery, requesting direct access to the
computer hard drives seized from QHE or mirror image copies of the drives created in a program
4 We note the third amended information misnumbered the counts, skipping LIV and LV.
5 RCW 9A.56.020(1) provides:  "'Theft' means:  (a) To wrongfully obtain or exert unauthorized
control over the property or services of another or the value thereof, with intent to deprive him or
her of such property or services." This statute was amended in 2004 by adding "or her."
6 RCW 9A.56.030(1) provides in part:  "A person is guilty of theft in the first degree if he or she
commits theft of:  (a) Property or services which exceed(s) one thousand five hundred dollars in
value."
7 RCW 9A.83.020(1) provides:  "A person is guilty of money laundering when that person
conducts or attempts to conduct a financial transaction involving the proceeds of specified
unlawful activity and: (a) Knows the property is proceeds of specified unlawful activity."
used by the defense's computer expert.  The trial court denied the motion in part, ordering the
State to produce only mirror image copies in the EnCase program it used for its investigation.  A
few weeks later, the trial court granted Dingman's motion for a continuance to allow his counsel
to work with the EnCase files.  In December 2005, Dingman requested another continuance
because many of the computer files remained unexamined by his expert.  The trial court denied
this motion.
The case went to trial before a jury.  For the theft counts, the State proceeded on a legal
theory of theft by embezzlement as set out in State v. Joy, 121 Wn.2d 333, 851 P.2d 654 (1993).
As explained by the trial court, "[i]f the particular agreement between the parties, meaning the
owner and the defendant, restricted the use of the funds to a specific purpose, the owner would
have an interest in the money." 30 RP at 2955-56.  According to the State, Dingman committed
theft by using the earmarked money inconsistent with the contractual purpose.  Joy, 121 Wn.2d at
341 ("The owners in those cases had an interest in the money given to defendant to hold for the
purchase of those materials, and when defendant used the money for other purposes, he
appropriated the funds to his own use and committed theft by embezzlement.").
On Dingman's motion, the trial court dismissed 3 counts of first degree theft and 13
counts of money laundering for insufficient evidence.  The jury found him not guilty of 2 counts
of first degree theft and 9 counts of money laundering.  It convicted him of the remaining 16
counts of first degree theft and 11 counts of money laundering.
Dingman appeals and the State cross-appeals.8

ANALYSIS9
Dingman first contends that the trial court erred in ruling on his discovery motions.  He
asserts that the trial court denied him an opportunity to prepare his defense.  We agree.
In August 2005, Dingman moved for the State to allow him to access his seized
computers' hard drives to create his own mirror images, or to receive mirror images of the drives
in a readable format.  As noted, during its investigation, the State created mirror image copies of
the drives using the EnCase program.
At argument on the motion, Dingman asserted that neither his computer forensic expert
nor defense counsel had access to the EnCase program.  His expert, Larry Karstetter, testified
that a copy of the program cost $3,607.  Karstetter said that he did not use the program because it
was created for use by law enforcement, and he expressed concern that its search function could
contain inherent bias against the defense.  He added that in all other cases in which he needed hard
drive copies, the State provided the copies to him in a readable (non-EnCase) format.
The State's witnesses included Detective Gregory Dawson, who created the EnCase
mirror image file for the State.  He expressed two reservations about providing Dingman with the
hard drives:  the program, Ghost, used by Dingman's expert, could produce an inaccurate copy of
the drives and the hard drives could be damaged because they had not been used for some time.
Dawson stated that his office had a license to use Ghost but that he did not use it for forensic
9 We set forth additional facts where relevant to the appeal.
In summarizing Dingman's request to the trial court, defense counsel stated that he merely
wanted the discovery in a format that the defense and its expert could use.  He gave this example:
The State has translated the computers into Farsi, a foreign language that
we don't speak, and asked us to take Farsi because that's what they decided to do
and it was convenient and maybe very wise on their part.  Well, we don't want it in
their language, your Honor.  We want the discovery as it existed in Mr. Dingman's
computers and as it still exists in Mr. Dingman's computers.
3 RP at 131.  He added that the State already had an exact copy of the files in its possession, so it
could easily detect if either Ghost or the age of the computers somehow altered the evidence.
The State countered that it did "not need to conform its investigation or its investigatory
tools to the whims and desires of the defense." 3 RP at 132.  It added that it had never had a
problem with providing the copies of the files -- in EnCase format -- to the defense.  Moreover, it
reminded the trial court that more than a year earlier, it had told defense counsel it was using
EnCase for its investigation.
The trial court denied the motion in part, ordering the State to provide the EnCase copies
to the defense.  The trial court found that the Ghost program would not provide an accurate
image of files contained in the single Redundant Array of Independent Disks (RAID)-configured
computer.  It also noted that the EnCase search function, criticized by the defense, was not the
only search program available.
Approximately one month later, Dingman followed up with the trial court on the discovery
request.  Defense counsel explained that his office was trying to obtain a less expensive version of
the software but had not yet purchased it.  He requested a continuance.
The State agreed with the need for a continuance:
The overall concern I think in dealing with this is that we -- the defendant
has -- and  it's the defendant's rights that are being protected -- has  a right to
effective assistance of counsel.  It is the State's concern that if we don't give the
defense attorney a sufficient amount of time to look into the computers -- and I
think January would be reasonable -- then we're going to be retrying this case.
And the goal I think of everybody is to try it once and to try it well and to get the
case resolved that way.
I understand the Court's concerns about the continuances in this matter,
and those are legitimate concerns.  But when we're sitting down and looking at a
defendant's rights and the Sixth Amendment rights, I think the concerns of the
amount of time a case  has been around, I guess from the State's perspective,
unfortunately would have to take second seat, if you will, to that particular matter.
4 RP at 158-59.
In December 2005, Dingman's counsel requested another continuance, in part because the
defense had not fully accessed the information on the mirror images it received from the State in
the EnCase format.  Dingman's motion stated that his counsel had not yet viewed all of the
computer files and that Dingman also had not had an opportunity to review them.  Dingman's
expert submitted an affidavit stating he was only able to review two of nine drives and, for the
two examined, he encountered files that he could not yet open.
The Department of Assigned Counsel's Information Technology Specialist, Kathleen
LaCoste, submitted an affidavit stating defense counsel had purchased a new hard drive,
submitted it to the State, and received 77 folders and 4,868 files on the drive from the State.  She
also said the EnCase program is "not usable without program specific training." Supp. Clerk's
Papers, LaCoste Aff. at 1.  The training cost was $1,500.  She told the trial court no one in her
office or the entire Pierce County computer support office was trained to use EnCase.  She stated
that the office had not purchased EnCase and that she had viewed some of the EnCase files using
a 30-day trial version of another program, Mount Image Pro Software.  This software could
support the EnCase images, but it did "not substitute as an operating system that will actually run
any of the associated programs required to open a specific file." Supp. CP, LaCoste Aff. at 2.
She also reviewed the compact disk evidence submitted by the State.  She said it functioned much
like the mirror image drive copies in that many of the files could not be opened or could not be
opened in a readable format.
At a hearing on the motion, defense counsel stated "this is as fast as the people and the
resources that were given to me to do this were able to move." 5 RP at 186.  The State
countered it previously produced hard copies of all of Dingman's business and bank records.  It
noted that at the time of the continuance request, the defense had possessed the hard drive mirror
images for 71 days.
The trial court denied the motion, stating, "What I'm hearing is a lot of requests to do
things that should have been done all along the way." 5 RP at 200-01.  Dingman renewed the
motion immediately before trial.  Again, the trial court denied the motion.
Dingman now argues that the trial court erred in denying the discovery request.  He
asserts this error deprived him of meaningful access to evidence in order to prepare for trial,
which resulted in a failure to ensure that he received adequate representation by defense counsel.
He also argues the decision deprived him of due process and violated Brady v. Maryland, 373
U.S. 83, 83 S. Ct. 1194, 10 L. Ed. 215 (1963).
State v. Boyd
After trial in this case, our Supreme Court decided State v. Boyd, 160 Wn.2d 424, 158
P.3d 54 (2007).  In Boyd, the court examined the State's obligation to provide a defendant access
to mirror image hard drives.  The trial court had restricted access to the drives, "allowing defense
counsel to access a mirror image of Boyd's hard drive, but only in a State facility . . . and only
through the State's operating system and software."  Boyd, 160 Wn.2d at 430.
Our Supreme Court held that under CrR 4.7(a)(1)(v),10 the State had an obligation to
provide the defense meaningful access to the hard drive copies.  Boyd, 160 Wn.2d at 433-34.  The
court opined that
[G]iven the nature of the evidence, adequate representation requires providing a
"mirror image" of that hard drive; enabling the defense attorney to consult with
computer experts who can tell how the evidence made its way onto the computer.
Forensic review might show that someone other than the defendant caused certain
images to be downloaded.  It may indicate when the images were downloaded. It
may reveal how often and how recently images were viewed and other useful
information based on where the images are stored on the device.  Expert analysis
of the application or program used to acquire the images may be useful. Providing
a copy enables the expert to test that application or program using the same type
and version of computer operating system as was used by the defendant, a
difference that may alter how the program runs, stores data, and so forth.
Analysis may also reveal that the images are not of children.  This analysis requires
greater access than can be afforded in the State's facility.
Preparation may require lengthy access even where there are few images.
The need for copies may flow also from constraints on experts such as access to
the necessary tools and sufficient time.   These concerns are relevant to Boyd,
where the forensic expert intends to use particular diagnostic equipment from his
lab and must review tens of thousands of images from potentially disparate
Boyd, 160 Wn.2d at 436-37 (citations omitted); see also State v. Grenning, 142 Wn. App. 518,
535-36, 174 P.3d 706, (applying Boyd), review denied, 164 Wn.2d 1026 (2008).
10 CrR 4.7(a), prosecutor's obligations, provides:
(1)  Except as otherwise provided by protective orders or as to matters not
subject to disclosure, the  prosecuting attorney shall disclose to the defendant the
following material and information within the  prosecuting attorney's possession or
control no later than the omnibus hearing:
(v)  any books, papers, documents, photographs, or tangible objects, which
the prosecuting attorney intends to use in the hearing or trial or which were
obtained from or belonged to the defendant.
Dingman relies on Boyd's expansive language that speaks to allowing unfettered access to
computer drives by the defense.  The State counters that the trial court satisfied Boyd's
requirements when it granted Dingman unrestricted access to a mirror image copy of the hard
drives.
Boyd resolves that CrR 4.7(a)(1)(v) governs this issue.  160 Wn.2d at 432-33.  By its
plain language, the rule obligates the State to disclose all books, papers, documents, photographs,
and tangible objects it has in its possession, "which the prosecuting attorney intends to use in the
hearing or trial or which were obtained from or belonged to the defendant." CrR 4.7(a)(1)(v).
Under the rule, "the burden is on the State to establish, not merely claim or allege, the need for
appropriate restrictions."  Boyd, 160 Wn.2d at 433; CrR 4.7(a).  The court added that discovery
before trial should be as "'full and free as possible.'"  Boyd, 160 Wn.2d at 434 (quoting State v.
Yates, 111 Wn.2d 793, 797, 765 P.2d 291 (1988)).  Boyd, however, does not address the exact
facts here: where the defense seeks to access the original hard drives or to have mirror image
copies provided in a preferred format.
The State's Failure to Produce the Hard Drives for Dingman
A computer hard drive is a tangible object.  These drives were "obtained from or belonged
to the defendant." CrR 4.7(a)(1)(v).  CrR 4.7(a)(1)(v), therefore, requires that defense counsel be
able to examine the drives absent an established State need for restrictions.  Boyd, 160 Wn.2d at
The State had not used the computers at any time after it accessed them to create the
EnCase mirror image copies.  The State posits there is a chance the computer hard drives would
fail if accessed by Dingman because they sat unused in State custody for some period of time.
However, the State's speculation about possible damage fails the test set out in Boyd:  that the
State show -- rather than claim or allege -- that it is placing appropriate restrictions on discovery.
160 Wn.2d at 433.  Even assuming the defense could damage a hard drive by turning a computer
on, the State already has complete mirror images of the drives it created when it seized the hard
drives.  These mirror images could be used to check any discrepancies between the computer
drives when accessed by the State and when accessed by the defense.
Although Boyd does not cover the exact circumstances of Dingman's case, it counsels
against unduly restricting access to electronic evidence in criminal matters.  Boyd, in a footnote,
touches on allowing a defendant to directly access computer hard drives, instead of simply mirror
images of the drives. 160 Wn.2d at 433-44 n.4.
In footnote 4, the Boyd court references federal cases that involve restrictions on
computer access by defendants in child pornography cases.  160 Wn.2d at 433.  It quotes one
case, United States v. O'Rourke, 470 F. Supp. 2d 1049, 1054 n.1 (D. Ariz. 2007), stating that if
not for additional federal statutory restrictions on discovery in child pornography cases, under
Fed. R. Crim. P. 16,11 it "'would grant the defense team possession of the hard drive.'"  Boyd,
160 Wn.2d at 434 n.4 (quoting O'Rourke, 470 F. Supp. 2d at 1054 n.1); see also O'Rourke, 470
11 Fed. R. Crim. P. 16(a)(1) states:
(E) Documents and Objects.      Upon a defendant's request, the government must
permit the defen00dant to inspect and to copy or photograph books, papers,
documents, data, photographs, tangible objects, buildings or places, or copies or
portions of any of these items, if the item is within the government's possession,
custody, or control and:
(i) the item is material to preparing the defense;
(ii) the government intends to use the item in its case-in-chief at trial; or
(iii) the item was obtained from or belongs to the defendant.
F. Supp. 2d at 1054 n.1 ([Federal] "Rule 16(a)(1)(E) provides that a defendant may inspect or
copy evidence from the Government that is material to preparation of the defense, will be used in
the Government's case-in-chief, or was obtained from the defendant.  The hard drive falls within
all three categories of discoverable information.").  In light of the plain language of CrR
4.7(a)(1)(v), which gives the defense access to objects the defendant owned, and the State's
failure to meet its burden of proving restrictions were necessary, the trial court erred in denying
Dingman's motion to access his hard drives.
The State's Failure to Provide a Readily Readable Mirror Image Copy
In the event he was not allowed to access the drives, Dingman also requested mirror
image copies made with the Ghost program.  At the discovery hearing, the State argued against
this request and presented evidence that it would take time to copy the drives into the Ghost
format, that Ghost may result in inaccurate copies, and that one computer drive could not be
accurately copied using the Ghost format.  The trial court also denied this request. Dingman
raises this same issue on appeal.  The State argues that it is not required to conform its
investigation to Dingman's whims and that the trial court ruled correctly by only requiring the
State to provide mirror images in the EnCase format.  Dingman responds that his expert was not
trained to use EnCase and that neither defense counsel nor the expert owned a version of EnCase.
Again, Boyd does not cover this exact scenario.  It did, however, strike down the trial
court's order requiring the defense to access the mirror image drives "only through the State's
operating system and software." Boyd, 160 Wn.2d at 430.  Another statement by a court
analyzing a federal child pornography case indicates that the defense should be allowed to use its
own hardware and software to analyze computer evidence:
An ample opportunity to forensically examine seized computer items means an
examination whereby the government can supply reasonably up-to-date tools
(hardware and software) and facilities such that a defendant can construct a
reasonable, available forensic defense, if one is available at all, and whereby the
analysis will not be impeached because it was not supported by the proper
hardware or software.    An ample opportunity will permit a defense expert to
utilize his or her hardware or software.
United States v. Flinn, 521 F. Supp. 2d 1097, 1101 (E.D. Cal. 2007) (emphasis added).  Under
this analysis, the State must meet its burden of showing a need for appropriate restrictions before
the trial court can limit a computer forensics expert's analysis of a defendant's hard drive to only
the State's chosen software format.  Boyd, 160 Wn.2d at 433.
As previously noted, any potential alteration to the hard drives original condition that the
Ghost software might cause can be detected because the State has the EnCase mirror image
copies.  Moreover, the State has a license to use Ghost.  The State's remaining related objections,
that the conversion to Ghost would be time consuming and that it need not conform discovery to
Dingman's whims, are insufficient to overcome the goal of open discovery set out in Boyd's12
analysis of CrR 4.7.13
12 Boyd emphasizes that inadequate discovery can violate the Fifth and Sixth Amendments.  160
Wn.2d at 434-35.  On appeal, the State appears to argue that the denial of Dingman's motion was
non-prejudicial and did not violate his constitutional rights because, for example, the State did not
use any of the hard drive images at trial.  We note, however, that the State, at argument before
the trial court, recognized that proceeding to trial before Dingman had the opportunity to review
the computer drives would violate his constitutional rights.  Further, simply because particular
evidence was not useful to the prosecution does not mean that the defense also would consider it
irrelevant.
13 We further note that at some point after the trial court's denial of Dingman's discovery motion,
the defense's expert acquired a program that could read EnCase files.  Dingman's attorney then
requested a second continuance related to the discovery matter in December 2005 to allow his
team additional time to work with the computer files and programs.  The State argued that
another continuance was unwarranted because the defense had received the EnCase mirror images
on September 29, 2005, and at the time of the motion, had possessed the images for
approximately 71 days.  The trial court denied the motion.  But simply because the defense
In sum, we conclude that the trial court erred by requiring that the State provide only an
EnCase mirror image of Dingman's hard drives to the defense.  The remedy is to reverse and
remand for a new trial.
A majority of the panel having determined that only the foregoing portion of this opinion will
be printed in the Washington Appellate Reports and that the remainder shall be filed for public record
pursuant to RCW 2.06.040, it is so ordered.
We next address only those issues that require reversal and dismissal or would arise on
remand.14 Thus, we address Dingman's sufficiency of the evidence, instructional error and double
jeopardy arguments.
Insufficient Evidence15
Dingman argues that insufficient evidence supports his convictions of first degree theft, as
charged in counts I, VII, X, XII, XV, XVIII, XX, XXVI, XXXIV, XXXVII, XXXIX, XLII,
XLIV, XLVI, and XLIX.16 He argues that under the law of the case doctrine, for each theft
attempted to comply with the trial court's order that it access the mirror images only in the
EnCase format does not make the trial court's order correct.  As of December 2005, the defense
still did not own the EnCase format and was working with a compatible program that produced
imperfect results.
14 See footnote 1.
15 We address Dingman's insufficiency of the evidence argument because if we were to reverse for
insufficient evidence, retrial would be prohibited and the remedy would be dismissal with
prejudice.  State v. Hickman, 135 Wn.2d 97, 99, 954 P.2d 900 (1998).
16 In a claim of insufficient evidence, we view the evidence in the light most favorable to the State
and examine whether "'any rational trier of fact could have found the essential elements of the
crime beyond a reasonable doubt.'"  State v. Brockob, 159 Wn.2d 311, 336, 150 P.3d 59 (2006)
(emphasis omitted) (quoting State v. Hughes, 154 Wn.2d 118, 152, 110 P.3d 192 (2005))
count, the State assumed the burden of proving that he exercised unauthorized control over the
victim's property "and that he possessed the intent to deprive from the outset of the charging
period until its conclusion." Appellant's Br. at 26.  He argues that the time elements were not
proven beyond a reasonable doubt, requiring reversal and dismissal.
The State counters that in Washington, time is a material element of the crime only when
the incident occurred outside of the charging period or there is an alibi defense, otherwise the
phrase "on or about" is sufficient to admit proof of the act within the statute of limitations.
Resp't's Br. at 35.  The State explains that the date of each theft offense charged starts on the
date on which the defendant and the homeowner(s) entered into the building contract and
continued through the "time when it could be established that the project had not been
completed." Resp't's Br. at 35.
When instructing the jury for each theft crime charged, the trial court included language
referencing a date range during which the crimes were allegedly committed.  For example, for
count I, a charge of first degree theft from Kent and Joyce Sharpe, the trial court instructed that
the State needed to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that "on or about the 6th day of June 2001,
through the 29th day of October, 2002" the defendant took property from the Sharpes worth
more than $1,500.  Clerk's Papers at 773.  Similar language, with different dates, appears in the
other counts.
Dingman relies on State v. Hickman, 135 Wn.2d 97, 101-02, 954 P.2d 900 (1998), and
(internal quotations marks omitted).  When a criminal defendant challenges the sufficiency of the
evidence, we must draw all reasonable inferences from the evidence in favor of the State and
interpret it most strongly against the defendant.  State v. Partin, 88 Wn.2d 899, 906-07, 567 P.2d
1136 (1977).
State v. Jensen, 125 Wn. App. 319, 326, 104 P.3d 717 (2005), to support his argument.
Hickman states that jury instructions not objected to at trial become the law of the case and "[i]n
criminal cases, the State assumes the burden of proving otherwise unnecessary elements of the
offense when such added elements are included without objection in the 'to convict' instruction."
135 Wn.2d at 102.  The Jensen case involved jury instructions that contained a date range.  125
Wn. App. at 326.  The Jensen court acknowledged that the jury instructions became the law of
the case.  125 Wn. App. at 326.  The trial court considered the defendant's claim that the criminal
acts occurred before the charging period but it rejected the argument on factual grounds.  Jensen,
125 Wn. App. at 326-28.
The State relies on a pre-Hickman case, State v. Hayes, 81 Wn. App. 425, 914 P.2d 788
(1996).  In Hayes, the State charged the defendant with child molestation occurring "on or about"
a certain date "through" a second date.  81 Wn. App. at 432.  The Hayes court held that where
time was not a statutory element of the charged crime, the language used in the charging
document was sufficient to include any criminal act occurring within the statute of limitations, so
long as the defendant was not presenting an alibi defense.  81 Wn. App. at 432.  Dingman calls
into question the Hayes decision post-Hickman, claiming that the time period is now an element
and it would no longer encompass any crime merely because it was committed within the statute
of limitations.
Each of Dingman's arguments regarding the theft counts includes the contention that the
State failed to prove that he had the intent to deprive a homeowner of money at the time the
contract was signed -- the initial date for each charging period.  "Dingman's partial satisfaction of
the contracts suggests he entered the agreements in good faith." Appellant's Br. at 83.
Specifically, with respect to each count, his argument provides:
Count I:  Dingman entered into this contract when his business was running
smoothly. He did not enter the contract with the intent to defraud.
Count VII:  Dingman did not have the intent to defraud when he entered
into the contract as shown by the fact that he started the project.
Count X:  Dingman commenced the project by applying for a permit and
pouring a foundation and installing a sub floor.  The facts do not establish that
when he entered the contract, he intended to commit theft.
Count XII:  "That the Browns refused Dingman's offer [to add in a kitchen
remodel to make up for project delays] does not establish he intended to deprive
them of their money when they signed the contract . . . ." Appellant's Br. at 77.
Count  XV:   "Given [Dingman's] considerable effort to discharge [his]
contractual obligations, it cannot be said beyond a reasonable doubt that Dingman
intended to deprive [the homeowners] of property . . . when the contract was
formed."  Appellant's Br. at 77-78.
Count  XVIII:   "That the [homeowner's] money was not subsequently
refunded [after they canceled the contract] does not establish Dingman had the
intent to commit theft when the contract was formed."  Appellant's Br. at 78.
Count XX:  There are two contracts at issue and for both the State failed
to show the requisite intent to defraud at the outset of the contracting periods.
Count  XXVI:   "[E]vidence of significant compliance precludes the
inference that he had the intent to deprive when he entered the contract."
Appellant's Br. at 79.
Count  XXXIV:   "Given Dingman's continued efforts to work  on the
project, the State simply did not prove he had the intent to deprive from when the
contract was formed . . . ."  Appellant's Br. at 80.
Count XXXVII:  There is no written contract in this count.  The charging
period begins when Dingman's daughter collected money from the homeowners.
Here, the State failed to show that Dingman's daughter acted at Dingman's
direction when she collected the money.  Dingman maintains that this shows the
State did not prove he had the intent to defraud at the start of the charging period.
Count  XXXIX:  Dingman's  "apparent dishonesty at the end of [his
company's] financial collapse does not establish he had the intent to deprive when
he entered the contract . . . ."  Appellant's Br. at 81.
Counts XLII, XLIV, and XLIX:  All of the homeowners in these counts
provided payment under the terms of the contract but no work was done.  At the
time these contracts were formed.  Dingman "was still hopeful he could save his
business and complete his existing jobs, thus he did not have intent to defraud at
the start of the contract."  Appellant's Br. at 82.
Count XLVI:  "[G]iven Dingman's initial efforts to fulfill his contractual
obligations, the State did not  meet its burden of proving Dingman had the intent
to deprive when the contract was first formed."  Appellant's Br. at 83.
Even assuming, first, that the charging period under the law of the case became an element
of the crime of first degree theft and, second, that the State failed for each count to prove that the
crime of theft began exactly on the contract date, we reject Dingman's argument that the crime
charged needed to start exactly on the initial date of the charging period and continued through
until exactly the last date of the charging period.
In Jensen, a case Dingman relies on, the charging period was "'on or about August 1,
2001 through February 19, 2002.'" 125 Wn. App. at 326.  The Jensen court analyzed the
sufficiency of the evidence presented to convict Jensen of indecent exposure and child
molestation.  It found that "[t]he jury could have reasonably found that these incidents occurred
within the charging period."  Jensen, 125 Wn. App. at 326-27.  In Jensen, the State presented no
evidence regarding specific dates on which criminal events occurred and, importantly, the court
imposed no requirement that the events needed to commence on the exact first day of the
charging period and continue for the entire duration of the charging period.  125 Wn. App. at 326-
Here, Dingman disputes the facts presented regarding the exact starting date for each
charging period, but he does not argue that insufficient evidence exists to support that the theft
crimes occurred at some point after the first date of the charging period.  Cf. Jensen, 125 Wn.
App. at 326-28 (stating that defendant argued that some events took place before the charging
period but finding that crimes occurred within the period); Hayes, 81 Wn. App. at 434-35
(allowing proof of crime that occurred shortly after charging period and declining to reach issue
whether sufficient evidence existed to support crime committed before the charging period).
Neither does he dispute the final dates used for each charging period.  Therefore, Dingman's
insufficiency of the evidence argument fails.
Petrich Instruction
Dingman further contends that if we reject his previous argument regarding multiple
offenses throughout the charging period, the State instead had the burden of showing that
individual acts during the charging period constituted theft.  He argues that under this theory of
the case, the trial court erred by failing to give a Petrich instruction to the jury.17  State v. Petrich,
The general rule for giving a unanimity instruction is:
When the facts show two or more criminal acts which could constitute the crime
charged, the jury must unanimously agree on the same act to convict the
defendant.  The State therefore must elect the specific criminal act on which it is
relying for conviction, or the trial court must instruct the jury that all the jurors
must agree that the same underlying criminal act was proven beyond a reasonable
State v. Fiallo-Lopez, 78 Wn. App. 717, 723-24, 899 P.2d 1294 (1995) (citations omitted).  But
under an exception to this rule, where a defendant engaged in a "continuing course of conduct,"
the trial court does not need to provide a Petrich instruction.  State v. Handran, 113 Wn.2d 11,
17, 775 P.2d 453 (1989).
We look at the facts in a "commonsense manner" to determine whether criminal conduct
constitutes a continuing course of conduct.  Fiallo-Lopez, 78 Wn. App. at 724.  To constitute a
continuing course of conduct, there must be ongoing conduct with a single objective.  State v.
Garman, 100 Wn. App. 307, 313, 984 P.2d 453 (1999).
17 Neither Dingman's nor the State's brief identify whether Dingman requested a Petrich
instruction at trial.  This issue, however, may be raised for the first time on appeal.  State v. Fiallo-
Lopez, 78 Wn. App. 717, 725, 899 P.2d 1294 (1995).
Specifically, in each of the counts discussed in the previous section, excluding X, XVIII,
XXXVII, XLII, and XLIV, the homeowners made multiple payments under the construction
contracts.  Dingman argues that because "[e]ach of these payments could have supported the
charged thefts," the trial court therefore erred in failing to give a Petrich unanimity instruction.
Appellant's Br. at 86 (emphasis added).
The State counters that each theft charge encompassed a continuing act of theft:  "A
common sense [sic] review of the facts shows that the thefts were based upon the construction
contracts . . . and the payments which the victims made to the appellant and his business pursuant
to these contracts." Resp't's Br. at 49.  Consequently, the State argues that the trial court need
not have given a Petrich instruction because that case applies only to multiple acts when each
could support a conviction.
The State relies primarily on State v. Campbell, 69 Wn. App. 302, 848 P.2d 1292, rev'd
on other grounds, 125 Wn.2d 797, 888 P.2d 1185 (1995).  In Campbell, the State charged the
defendant with welfare fraud.  On appeal, the defendant argued that "the evidence showed 21
separate instances of conduct which could have formed the basis for separate counts."  Campbell,
69 Wn. App. at 311.  The defendant asked for a new trial under Petrich.  Campbell, 69 Wn. App.
at 311.
The Campbell court rejected the defendant's argument, stating that "the welfare fraud
statute contemplates a continuing course of conduct in furtherance of the single goal of obtaining
public assistance to which one is not entitled." 69 Wn. App. at 312.  It concluded that "[t]he
evidence showed that [the defendant] engaged in a sophisticated and broad scheme involving
numerous acts but in furtherance of a single goal."  Campbell, 69 Wn. App. at 312.  See
Handran, 113 Wn.2d at 17-18 (concluding that separate acts of assault were part of a continuing
course of conduct); State v. Love, 80 Wn. App. 357, 360-63, 908 P.2d 395 (1996) (finding that
defendant's two instances of drug possession were part of an ongoing course of trafficking
conduct).  The Campbell case supports the State's argument that under a single course of
conduct, "the appellant's actions and promises were intended to obtain and then keep the victims'
money without providing them with the project for which they had contracted." Resp't's Br. at
Here, Dingman entered into one contract with each homeowner or set of homeowners.
He took actions and made promises to the homeowners, ostensibly to fulfill the terms of the
contract.  The overarching contractual framework demonstrates that his many acts and promises
were done in furtherance of a single goal of depriving homeowners of the maximum possible
amount of funds while fulfilling a minimum number of contractual promises.
In sum, we agree with the State that a Petrich instruction was not required.
We address the double jeopardy question raised by Dingman because the issue is likely to
arise on retrial.  In re Pers. Restraint of Orange, 152 Wn.2d 795, 822, 100 P.3d 291 (2004)
("Additionally, for purposes of guidance on retrial, we address Orange's two double jeopardy
challenges.").  We determine that convictions for both money laundering and theft violate double
jeopardy in circumstances that demonstrate that the two offenses violate the same evidence test.
Under these circumstances, we require that one category of charges be dismissed before retrial.
In re Orange, 152 Wn.2d at 822 (stating that "because we conclude that Orange's convictions for
first degree attempted murder and first degree assault of Walker violated the constitutional
prohibition against double jeopardy, one of the charges must be dismissed prior to retrial").
Dingman contends that the State prosecuted him for money laundering and first degree
theft based on the same set of facts, in violation of double jeopardy.  Specifically:
At trial, the State advanced a novel theory in support of the money laundering
charges.  The theory depended on the premise that the property owners had a
possessory interest in monies advanced under the contracts, thus the  "financial
transaction" element of the crime was established by Dingman's use of the funds
for purposes other than the purposes for which those funds were designated by
Dingman's staged payment system.  This was essentially the same theory the State
relied upon to support the defendant's theft convictions in State v. Joy, 121 Wn.2d
333, 851 P.2d 654 (1993), also a prosecution for failure to perform construction
contracts under a theft by embezzlement theory.
Appellant's Br. at 89 (citation omitted).
The State counters that the same conduct does not support both charges.  The State
distinguishes the act of obtaining a check from a homeowner (theft) from the act of depositing or
negotiating the check (money laundering).
The Washington State Constitution, article I, section 9, provides that a person may not be
"twice put in jeopardy for the same offense." To analyze a double jeopardy claim, we must
initially examine statutory language to see if the applicable statutes expressly permit punishment
for the same act or transaction.  State v. Calle, 125 Wn.2d 769, 776-77, 888 P.2d 155 (1995).
We review claims of double jeopardy de novo.  State v. Jackman, 156 Wn.2d 736, 746, 132 P.3d
136 (2006).
If the statutes do not speak to multiple punishments for the same act,18 we next apply the
"same evidence" test.  Jackman, 156 Wn.2d at 746.  This test provides that "if each offense
contains elements not contained in the other offense, the offenses are different and multiple
convictions can stand."  Jackman, 156 Wn.2d at 747.  The test requires a court to determine
whether each conviction requires "'proof of a fact which the other does not.'" Jackman, 156
18 Neither party disputes that the applicable statutes do not speak to multiple punishments for the
same act.
Wn.2d at 747 (quoting State v. Baldwin, 150 Wn.2d 448, 455, 78 P.3d 1005 (2003)) (internal
quotation marks omitted).19
"Same evidence" Test
Under Dingman's analysis, because he committed what was traditionally known as theft by
embezzlement, in that he appropriated contractually designated funds for his own use, he cannot
also have committed the crime of money laundering.  "The two crimes are inseparable and
intertwined." Appellant's Br. at 90.
The trial court clearly understood the crime of theft to arise from Dingman's misuse of
funds obtained under a contract that specified how the funds were meant to be used:
Under the relevant statutes, theft requires that the relevant property or
services be the property of another.  To constitute property of another, the item
must be one in which another person has an interest.  And the defendant may not
lawfully exert control over the item absent the permission of that person.
If the particular agreement between the parties, meaning the owner and the
defendant, restricted the use of the funds to a specific purpose, the owner would
have an interest in the money.  That is the application of the money to the purpose
for which it was entrusted to the defendant.
The question is whether the funds were received under agreements
authorizing the defendant to hold or control the advance payments in which the
homeowners had an interest and not authorizing defendant to exert control over
the funds in a way inconsistent with the owner's permission to use the funds for
materials.  The key is whether there was a restriction or a limitation in the
agreements giving the owners an interest in having the funds applied to the
purchase of materials.
And that is the standard that was followed in State v. Joy, and those are the
standards followed by this Court in its analysis.
30 RP at 2955-56.
19 Even if the statutes pass the "same evidence" test, multiple convictions are not allowed if the
legislature has "'otherwise clearly indicated its intent that the same conduct or transaction will not
be punished under both statutes.'"  Jackman, 156 Wn.2d 736, 746 (emphasis omitted) (quoting
Baldwin, 150 Wn.2d at 455-56).
Dingman's argument has merit.  The theft he committed required that he obtain payments
under a construction contract and exert control over the funds in a manner inconsistent with the
terms of the contract.  Under this analysis, then, merely obtaining a check from a homeowner
does not prove the crime as set out by the court.  The crime of theft is not completed until the
earmarked funds are misallocated.  See Joy, 121 Wn.2d at 341 ("The owners in those cases had
an interest in the money given to defendant to hold for the purchase of those materials, and when
defendant used the money for other purposes, he appropriated the funds to his own use and
committed theft by embezzlement.)." (Emphasis added.)
These unique facts, combined with the specific theft-embezzlement theory of Joy used by
the State and adopted by the trial court, demonstrate that the act of theft (fund misallocation)
could not be completed without money laundering (check depositing and misdirection of funds).
State v. Womac, 160 Wn.2d 643, 654-56, 160 P.3d 40 (2007) (concluding that defendant could
not have committed felony murder without committing assault); see also United States v. Christo,
129 F.3d 578, 580-82 (11th Cir. 1997) (finding insufficient evidence of money laundering where
predicate crime of bank fraud required misapplication of funds); United States v. Savage, 67 F.3d
1435, 1441 (9th Cir. 1995) (for federal law, "Congress considered money laundering to be
separate conduct occurring after completion of the underlying criminal offense").
Even though the theft and money laundering statutes have different elements, if "the
statutory elements [for the two crimes] are compared in light of what did in fact occur," the theft-
embezzlement could not have occurred without the money laundering.  State v. Potter, 31 Wn.
App. 883, 888, 645 P.2d 60 (1982); see also In re Orange, 152 Wn.2d at 818-19 (examining
facts of both crimes charged); State v. Walker, 143 Wn. App. 880, 886, 181 P.3d 31 (2008) ("[I]f
the evidence to prove one crime would also completely prove a second crime, the two crimes are
the same in law and fact.").  Following the analysis in Potter as explained in Orange, the two
crimes under the theory of the case and as proved violate the same evidence test.
The usual remedy for a double jeopardy violation is to vacate the lesser conviction.  State
v. Nguyen, ____Wn.2d ____, 197 P.3d 673, 677 (2008).  But in this matter, because we remand
for retrial, we require only that "one [category] of the charges must be dismissed prior to retrial."
In re Orange, 152 Wn.2d at 822.

We were pleased to learn that the Government is currently considering the necessary steps to address Sri Lanka's accountability and reconciliation needs, including fuller implementation of the recommendations of the Lessons Learned and Reconciliation Commission (LLRC).
We note the positive steps taken by the Government since 09 January and the further measures contemplated. These include a commitment to fundamental governance reforms and strengthening the independence of national institutions; the appointment of civilian governors in the Northern Province and Eastern Province amongst other changes in the provincial administrations; and, the appointment of the new Chief Justice.
Today I concluded a brief visit to Sri Lanka. The purpose of my visit was primarily to reiterate and renew the Commonwealth's commitment to work in partnership with Sri Lanka to advance its own national plans. We have successfully identified areas where the Commonwealth will provide practical assistance as the country turns a new and transformative page in its history.
My visit was also an opportunity to provide an update on Commonwealth priorities given Sri Lanka's continuing two-year role as Commonwealth Chair-in-Office, which commenced at the 2013 Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting (CHOGM) in Colombo and will conclude at the next summit of Commonwealth leaders in Malta in November this year.
Sri Lanka is one of the oldest democracies in Asia and is a founding member of the modern Commonwealth. Voters, who last month turned out in impressively large numbers to exercise their democratic right, have once again confirmed this standing. The Commonwealth's contribution to the 8 January election included the presence of our international observer team and the agreement secured to have domestic observers present at counting centres. I am pleased that the Commonwealth played a part in facilitating a successful electoral process and that this has been highly valued.
We note the positive steps taken by the Government since 9 January and the further measures contemplated. These include a commitment to fundamental governance reforms and strengthening the independence of national institutions; the appointment of civilian governors in the Northern Province and Eastern Province amongst other changes in the provincial administrations; and, the appointment of the new Chief Justice.
I called on President Maithripala Sirisena. I also met with Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe, Minister of Foreign Affairs Mangala Samaraweera, Minister of Public Administration Karu Jayasuriya, and Minister of Finance Ravi Karunanayake. I was also pleased to meet Provincial Governors and Chief Ministers.
My meetings offered the opportunity to explore ways in which we could support priority areas in the Government's ambitious 100-Day Work Programme. These will build on our ongoing assistance to advance the fundamental values and principles of the Commonwealth as set out in the Commonwealth Charter.
· Expertise and advice to strengthen the independence of the judiciary in line with the Commonwealth's Latimer House Principles on the separation of powers, on which the Commonwealth's best practice compendium has been submitted.
· Promoting youth entrepreneurship in the Northern and Eastern Provinces, including through the Commonwealth Alliance of Asian Young Entrepreneurs (CAAYE).
· A compendium of practice from across the Commonwealth concerning the establishment and independence of Election Management Bodies. These will be shared with Sri Lanka.
Many of these areas will involve the Commonwealth Secretariat working in partnership with other Commonwealth bodies with specialist expertise.
We were pleased to learn that the Government is currently considering the necessary steps to address Sri Lanka's accountability and reconciliation needs, including fuller implementation of the recommendations of the Lessons Learned and Reconciliation Commission (LLRC). We have discussed options for practical Commonwealth support for these vital domestic processes, and welcome the intent to establish a credible domestic investigation mechanism that respects international humanitarian law.
We are particularly pleased, in this context, that memorialisation will be part of Sri Lanka's Independence Day observance on 4 February.
My visit was also an opportunity to brief the President on his role as Commonwealth Chair-in-Office. We discussed progress in implementing CHOGM mandates set by leaders when they met in Sri Lanka in November 2013. These include the development of a trade finance facility and also strengthened access to climate finance for small and developing states; a new ICT-based platform for sharing technical assistance between Commonwealth countries; increasing the opportunity for Commonwealth citizens to visit each other's countries; and, Commonwealth high-level political advocacy in the development of the new Post-2015 Global Development Agenda.
In my meeting with Foreign Minister Mangala Samaraweera, we discussed the mandate of the Commonwealth Ministerial Action Group (CMAG) to work with member countries in a proactive and positive way in advancing the Commonwealth's political values. We look forward to the Minister's participation at CMAG's next meeting in March in London. The Sri Lankan Foreign Minister will also be chairing the annual Commonwealth Foreign Affairs Ministers Meeting in New York in September.
Sri Lanka's people have strongly validated their country's democratic credentials and this is a matter of pride as much for the Commonwealth as it is for Sri Lanka. We look forward to a continued and strong partnership over the remainder of Sri Lanka's term as Commonwealth Chair-in-Office and in the years beyond.

If anyone wants to enjoy the perks of having a really nice lift with a prime spot at VIP Marina for a few weeks, we can work out a deal.


Welcome to the first Metropole Market Blog. In the months ahead, we will be sharing news and information about Bournemouth's latest most vibrant street market. Arriving in Lansdowne this September, Metropole Market is set to be a quintessentially eccentric ensemble of all things creative & delicious. However, before Metropole makes its 'grand debut', we are asking for all intrigued local traders to join us and bring our marvellous market to life!
Named in honour of a historic Bournemouth Hotel, destroyed during the Second World War, the Metropole Street Market will bring together a huge range of stalls, artisan foods, live music, vintage goods, entertainers, and kids activities. It will involve the closure of Holdenhurst Road from St Swithuns Roundabout to Lansdowne Roundabout, to traffic. This means pedestrians will be free to roam the eclectic collection of trade stalls on offer and explore the rows of remarkable retailers based on Holdenhurst Road.
Thanks to funds from the Town Centre Business Improvement District (BID) we aim to attract over 5,000 people to each market and help bring new custom to local businesses. We want to be the 'big bang' which marks the start of the Lansdowne area's regeneration projects.
However, with plenty of mouths to feed we need more local traders and food outlets to get involved. We are therefore delighted to be holding a public meeting on the first floor of the Christopher Creeke in Lansdowne on Thursday 15th June 2017. Taking place between 5 pm and 6 pm, drop in and join us to discuss how, together, we can feed the five thousand!
At the event, you can find out how your business will benefit from the Metropole Market, such as increased footfall to Lansdowne and free marketing for your Metropole Market stall. We would also like to discuss different ways you might like to be involved. This could range from opening for business on the Sundays, taking a stall within the market itself, or extending your business onto the pavement as part of the variety of festivities the Metropole will bring.
If you're an intrigued trader, make sure to register your interest, book your stands, and get involved… Contact Sophie or Rebecca (our dynamic traders team!) via traders@MetropoleMarket.co.uk.
Lyn and Mark, Metropole Market Organisers.

Guelph looking for new contractor to complete police HQ renovations
Published Friday, July 3, 2020 6:06PM EDT Last Updated Friday, July 3, 2020 6:50PM EDT
(Terry Kelly / CTV Kitchener)
KITCHENER -- The city of Guelph needs to find a new contractor to finish the multi-million dollar renovations to its police headquarters.
Earlier this week, the city said it was parting ways with the general contractor on the $34 million building and the contractor is no longer involved with the project, after defaulting on the contract. According to the city, ending the general contractor's work doesn't mean the project has paused. It's working to bring in a new project manager for the rest of the work.
In a statement, Mayor Cam Guthrie said changing contractors is an important step forward for the renovations.
"This situation is unfortunate; we would all prefer this important project be completed by now," Guthrie's statement said in part. "But I believe in our project management processes and our staff's ability to make good decisions for our community. And that means that when we do finally cut the ribbon on this project, we'll be doing so for a facility that we can all be proud of, and that will serve our community for years to come."
Renovations began in 2016 and were initially supposed to wrap up in 2019.

To construct something greater than a small lifestyle business, a founder may need to just accept exterior finance. Anyone who launches a new business, whether or not an environmental inspections firm in Houston or a gaming startup in North Carolina's Research Triangle Park, is an entrepreneur. According to a Harvard Business School evaluation, entrepreneurs tend to share sure traits, such as a dogged commitment to hard work, resilient willpower, and excessive-threat tolerance. The founder might be liable for seemingly endless choices ranging from hiring and firing to product design and purchasing industrial insurance. The founder might, at instances, be the visionary who lays out the mission of the corporate. But at other occasions, he or she shall be mired within the unglamorous duties of regulatory compliance, tax and financial reporting, and other tedious but needed duties.
A one that undertakes the risk of starting a brand new enterprise enterprise is called an entrepreneur. The person who creates a new enterprise and embraces each challenge for its development and operation is called an entrepreneur. And the endeavor or organisation, sometimes a startup firm, set up by the entrepreneur is called enterprise. As we have beforehand written, most entrepreneurs start their businesses with funds from their own savings, in addition to help from family and friends.
So, if launching a business is so challenging and uncertain, why is entrepreneurship so alluring? To answer that, let's look at the elements of entrepreneurship and traits of founders that paint a extra vivid picture of entrepreneurship. For others, an entrepreneur is a free-spirited insurgent who makes his or her personal method in the enterprise world. All these things assist give colour to the canvas of entrepreneurship, but they don't paint a whole image of the thing itself. & SpringerLink 2005, Pioneers in entrepreneurship and small enterprise analysis, Springer Science+Business Media, New York, N.Y. Biosphere entrepreneurship is "entrepreneurial activity that generates worth for the biosphere and ecosystem companies." It is an element of a larger pattern of business schools in search of to include environmental topics more actively into their curricula.
Through the consumption of content material across a number of channels, an aspiring entrepreneur is able to determine varied issues to resolve. One business adage dictates that an organization's services or products wants to resolve a specific ache point; either for an additional business or for a consumer group.
In technical financial terms, the entrepreneur disrupts the course towards steady-state equilibrium. They have a robust talent set in a selected area obtained through education or apprenticeship. A specialist entrepreneur will build out their enterprise through networking and referrals, resulting in slower development than a builder entrepreneur. Builders usually cross $5 million in revenue within the first two to four years and continue to build up until $one hundred million or beyond. These people seek to construct out a strong infrastructure by hiring the most effective expertise and in search of the most effective investors.

The Will of Sir Thomas Lovell, K.G.
Sir Thomas Lovell came from a minor aristocratic family in Norfolk, and trained as a lawyer at Lincoln's Inn from 1454 to (probably) 1457.[1]
He returned to the Inn and was initially elected to its governing council in 1468, and in subsequent years held various senior offices, including treasurer, until he reached the Inn's most senior position of governer in 1475.[2]
Lovell was a staunch Lancastrian and like many of his peers had been disinherited under the reign of Richard III. When Henry VII came to the throne, one of his first moves was to restore the lands and titles of his followers, at the same time looking to reward his most reliable supporters with positions in his new government.
Lovell's loyalty and his experience at Lincoln's Inn evidently appealed to the king, and in the years following 1485 he was given a number of high status positions, the most significant of which being a lifetime appointment as Chancellor of the Exchequer.
Lovell quickly became one of the most influential figures in Henry's court. In 1487 he was knighted at the Battle of Stoke and was awarded the Order of The Garter some time around 1500. His new position required a headquarters close to the king, and crucially a place to project his new influence. The site of Elsyng, just to the north of Enfield, fit the bill well, being an easy day's ride north of London and its location next to the hunting forest of the Royal Chase made it the perfect place to entertain the court.
Lovell gained control of Elsyng in 1487, the details of which have been the subject of much discussion. At the time the estate belonged to Edmund, Lord Roos who had himself been disinherited under the Yorkist regime and restored by Henry VII. In 1487 Lovell, at the time Speaker of the House of Commons, presented a bill that declared Edmund "not of sufficient disscrecion to guyde hymseif and his lyvehode, nor able to serve his highness after his duetie".[3]
Whether Edmund's problems were physical or financial is not clear - the text of the bill appears deliberately vague - but the result was that his properties were passed on to his sister Isabell, who Lovell just happened to have recently married.
Lovell is consquently credited with turning Elsyng into a full fledged courtier's palace, which became his principal residence until his death in 1524, upon which it reverted to his (by then deceased) wife's heirs.
The following is a transcription of the Prerogative Court of Canterbury copy of Lovell's will (with modernised spelling), dated 1522, from the National Archives (ref PROB/11/2/3).
Preamble and bequests to Halywell Priory
Bequests to various religious houses, colleges and relatives
Bequest of Elsyng Palace and other manors to Thomas Manners, Lord Roos with details of the succession should he die
Bequest of various manors to his nephew, Francis Lovell, with details of succession
Various bequests including the house at Halywell Priory to Francis Lovell
First Codicil: Sums of money, valuables and furnishing to relatives, friends, the King and Cardinal Wolsey
Second Codicil: Legacies - sums of money mostly to servants
Third Codicil (and Probate): Further bequests to servants

Why Canada's New Music Hall of Fame Is Making History | Where's Andy Now?
When you think "Canada," what comes to mind? For me, alongside visions of mountains, Mounties, and moose, I hear a soundtrack: Joni Mitchell and Arcade Fire, Alanis Morrissette and Neil Young, Shania Twain, Michael Bublé, k.d. Lang and, I'll admit, Celine Dion and Justin Bieber. And yet, Canada has never had a place that salutes these artists altogether.


Having seen the Grove Park extension, our local charity-worker client wanted to apply the same principles to her new but tiny Victorian house. Her main ambition was to get far more daylight penetration and achieve an open-plan-living environment. The entire work had to be carried out within about 6 weeks, across Christmas/New Year and all for £25,000!
We knew that we had to have an extremely friendly, hard working and cost-effective builder to succeed. So we introduced a builder we trusted, working closely with him to cost-engineer the scheme. We removed most of the structural walls on the ground floor and inserting large box frames but daily life had to go on for our client! The extension was a tiny infill (2.5m square) into the projecting rear wings of her house and of her neighbour. The whole rear ground floor now became a single space; floor levels also became one, and old Victorian purlins machined sawn to form all the wide, matured floorboards to provide authentic wide, mellow boards to match the rest. A folding sliding oak screen gave access onto a landscaped rear garden; we adapted the old blocked up chimney to take a log-burning stove. The budget was so tight that we reused her kitchen units. The glass fronted wall units were turned through 90 degrees, with added gas piston struts so that the doors upon upwards, and replaced ply backs with glass to make them totally see-through. With LED lights throughout and a large rooflight over the new kitchen the whole space is flooded with light.


Tangled was a huge hit for Disney in 2010, so it's no surprise that Tangeled Ever After has been announced. This time it will only be a short film, which will appear before the theatrical release of Beauty and the Beast 3D, beginning January 13th.
The Walt Disney Studios proudly announced today that directors Nathan Greno and Byron Howard, the talented team behind Disney Animation Studio's global blockbuster Tangled, will premiere a delightful new animated short film spotlighting the royal wedding of Rapunzel (Mandy Moore) and Flynn Rider – a.k.a Eugene – (Zachary Levi) in front of each screening of Beauty and the Beast in 3D, which opens on January 13, 2012.
By popular demand, Greno and Howard are bringing back some of Disney's most beloved characters when Tangled Ever After picks up where Tangled left off. The Kingdom is in a festive mood as everyone gathers for the royal wedding of Rapunzel and Flynn. However, when Pascal and Maximus, as flower chameleon and ring bearer, respectively, lose the gold bands, a frenzied search and recovery mission gets underway. As the desperate duo tries to find the rings before anyone discovers that they're missing, they leave behind a trail of comical chaos that includes flying lanterns, a flock of doves, a wine barrel barricade and a very sticky finale. Will Maximus and Pascal save the day and make it to the church in time? And will they ever get Flynn's nose right?
Tangled Ever After is the perfect accompaniment to Beauty and the Beast, which is returning to the big screen in Disney Digital 3D™ and introducing a whole new generation to the Disney classic with stunning new 3D imagery. Beauty and the Beast was nominated for six Academy Awards®, winning Oscars® for Best Song, by the renowned Alan Menken and Howard Ashman, and Best Original Score (Menken).

Scuola Grande di San Rocco
The Scuola di San Rocco ("Confraternity of St. Roch", protector against plague, which had struck Venice in that century) was established in 1478 by a group of wealthy Venetian citizens, next to the church of San Rocco, from which it takes its name. In January 1515 the project of the building was entrusted to Bartolomeo Bon, although some authorities assign it to his son Pietro Bon. In 1524 his work was continued by Sante Lombardo, who, in turn, three years later was replaced by Antonio Scarpagnino. Following his death in 1549, the last architect to work on the edifice was Giangiacomo dei Grigi, finishing in September 1560. The design was similar to other scuole in Venice, characterized by two halls, one at ground floor level, the other at first floor level. The Sala Terra (lower) has a nave and two aisles, with the entrance from the campo outside. From this hall a stair (with a landing surmounted by a dome) led to the upper storey. The Sala Superiore ("Upper Hall") was used for meetings of the fellows and had a wooden altar. It provided access to the Sala dell'Albergo, which housed the Banca and the Zonta (the confraternity's supervisory boards).

The Goodwood Festival of Speed (FoS) may be months away, but thanks to the Goodwood Press Day this week, we got a look at what cars will be driven and showcased. Mercedes-Benz will bring one of the more interesting fleets to the event, including a rare race car that ranks as one of the most valuable in the world.
The highlight of Mercedes' Goodwood presence is sure to be the 300 SLR "Uhlenhaut Coupé." A closed, gullwing version of the 300 SLR race car, the coupé was built with the intention of racing in 1956. After Stirling Moss and John Cooper Fitch won the British International Tourist Trophy in 1955, however, Mercedes withdrew from the 1956 season and never raced either of the two 300 SLR coupé examples made.
Instead, Mercedes engineer Rudolf Uhlenhaut, father of the 300 SLR, took one of the coupés for use as a company car. It was fitted with a silencer on its side exhaust pipe to make it road legal. As a lightweight, 310-hp coupé designed for racing, the Uhlenhaut was the fastest road-legal car of its time, capable of speeds of more than 280 km/h (174 mph). The rare car is considered one of the most valuable cars in the world but appears unlikely to be sold from the Mercedes-Benz Classic Collection.
Other cars in the Mercedes Goodwood fleet will include the W 154 from 1938 and 1939, the W 196 from 1954 and 1955, an 1834 S racing truck from 1993, and a Benz patent motor car. The 1834 S truck took home three European Championship in its day, under the control of drivers Steve Parrish (1994 and 1996) and Slim Borgudd (1997).
Mercedes also expects to be joined by legendary F1 race car driver Jackie Stewart. He will drive a W 154 specially decorated with a "Stewart Racing Tartan" on the seat cover.
The 2013 Goodwood Festival of Speed will be held in the grounds of Goodwood House in West Sussex, England, from July 11 to 14.

Domino's Options Active After Pre-Earnings Analyst Note
DPZ's weekly put options are popular, despite a new "outperform" rating
DPZ
The pizza chain will report earnings next week
Domino's Pizza, Inc. (NYSE:DPZ) will report earnings on Tuesday, Oct. 8. Ahead of the report, analysts at Wedbush initiated coverage with an "outperform" rating, citing overly negative sentiment toward the pizza chain. The brokerage firm also waxed optimistic on Domino's ability to withstand third-party delivery challenges, and established a price target of $280 for DPZ shares -- a 15% premium to last night's close of $243.35.
However, it should be noted that DPZ shares have moved lower the day after four of the last five earnings releases, including a one-day slide of 8.7% in mid-July. On average, the stock has moved 5.2% in the session after the last eight reports, regardless of direction. This time around, the options market is pricing in a slightly bigger one-day move of 7.6%.
Speaking of DPZ options, puts are flying off the shelves at three times the average intraday speed today, with more than 2,300 contracts traded thus far. For comparison, fewer than 600 Domino's call options have traded today. Digging deeper, it appears traders are opening new positions at the weekly 10/11 217.50- and 230-strike puts, with some spread activity likely happening here.
Prior to today, though, long calls were the options of choice among buyers. On the International Securities Exchange (ISE), Cboe Options Exchange (CBOE), and NASDAQ OMX PHLX (PHLX), speculators have bought to open nearly 1.5 DPZ calls for every put during the past two weeks.
Despite today's upbeat analyst attention, Domino's shares were last seen fractionally lower at $242.86. Although the equity has rebounded 10% from its late-August annual low of $220.90, it's recently run into a wall in the $248-$250 area, which coincides with DPZ's year-to-date breakeven level.
