OK. please also add the following to the file in this case:
I ) Intermountain Gas told me over the phone that after l0 days of non-service that I'm a NEW customer not a
new applicant for services. they have been alleging thru this entire proceedings that after l0 days of non-
service I'm a new applicant.
2) Intermountain Gas will charge 9l dollars deposit to my account. they are not requiring any application or
paperwork for the deposit to reconnect service.
3) they allege to have sent the disconnect notice on 71812019 to my home in 8067 W Galileo. However, I have a
permanent change of address filed with the USPS to have all my mail go to my mom's place at 7712N
Goldeneye Way. I was informed by the postal service the letter would have been forwarded to my mom's
place.
4) Intermountain Gas have notes on my account including emails between myself and their staff. That
information shows that they know from past communications that my fence has a lock in it. If they planned to
disconnect then why did they not call ahead of time to have the fence opened? instead they took the chance and
damaged property. Presumably so that they could later charge a deposit.
5) I've requested a copy of the 71812019 disconnect notice, recorded phonecalls, and the company policy
regarding when their employee damages property. they indicated that they will not provide the information.
Thank you,
Raul

Good Aftemoon,
I've filed a Notice of Appeal and a petition for fee waiver for this case. I'm not sure what the status of it is but I
hope that it has not been filed with the Idaho Supreme Court yet. I will have to dismiss this appeal and
proceed with litigation.
Intermountain Gas disconnected my service without a disconnect notice in violation of the IPUC rules. Their
own notice makes it clear that an opportunity must be afforded to customers to contact their customer service
within 24 hours after receiving the disconnect notice 'to avoid disconnection of service' or to 'make payment
arrangements.' Presumably, a 'Notice of disconnect' is necessary because in many instances people need the
service for medical reasons and therefore an opportunity must be given to customer's to provide medical
documentation to avoid shut off.
Furthermore, Intermountain Gas caused damaged to my property while accessing the meter to lock it and yet
they have not contacted me to take responsibility for it. They are well aware from last year that I spent most of
my time being an 'in house' caregiver for my disabled mother at her place. I lock my fence and last year they
attempted to replace the meter but could not access it and left a notice on my door that they could not access it;
presumably because they did not want to risk jumping over the fence and breaking it.
They broke my fence ( I cannot fully open the door) and they also bend the pole underneath the electricity
meter because I guess they used it as support. Basically, I have no other option but to sue for damages; unless
they take responsibility and also reconnect my improperly disconnected service. I doubt they will as I believe
they've acted in malicious faith and I'm confident most juries would see that their unlawful conduct stems from
retal iation from the pend ing comp laint/appeal.
