NOTICE OF CLAIM
Notice is hereby given of the following claim:
A. The name and address of the Claimant is:
Mohammed Matan
908 -31st Avenue #A
Greeley, Colorado 80624
B. The name and address of the Claimant's attorney is:
Franklin D. Azar & Associates, P.C.
14426 E. Evans Avenue
Aurora, CO 80014
C. The basis of the claim is:
On or about February 15, 2013, at approximately 12:05 a.m., the claimant was a
passenger in a motor vehicle operated by Abdikarin Abdi traveling westbound on Colorado
Highway 34 in icy and/or snowy conditions, at or near milepost 129, in the County of Weld,
State of Colorado. Mr. Abdi lost control of the vehicle, causing it to rotate clockwise off the right
hand side of the roadway and collide with a fence as it rolled one and a half times, coming to a
rest on its roof. The Weld County failed to use existing means available to it for removal or
mitigation of the accumulation of snow and/or ice. Weld County had actual notice by the proper
public officials responsible for the roadway and had a reasonable time to act. The incident was
caused by the negligence of the Weld County employee(s) by not using existing means available
to it for removal or mitigation of the accumulation of snow and/or ice. Weld County snow and
ice removal was supervised and maintained by unknown employee(s) of Weld County in the
course and scope of his/her/their employment. As a result of the said incident, the claimant
sustained personal injuries and property damage. A copy of the State of Colorado Traffic
Accident Report dated February 15, 2013 is attached for your review.

property.
