The Montana Standard, Butte, Friday, November 9, 1979-5 Shining Mountains' owners object of $10 million suit VIRGINIA CITY A $10.85 million class action suit alleging fraud and breach of contract was filed Thursday in Virginia City district court against the owners and agents of the Shining Mountains Subdivision. The huge development is located about five miles southwest of Ennis in Madison County. The complaint lists names of more than 103 plaintiffs, identified as owners of property within the three units of the subdivision. Defendants are Don and Pann Mallas, doing business as Mallas Associates, and general partners of the Shining Mountains, a California limited partnership. Also, Nick Mallas, Jess Burgoon and Ray Whitley, agents and salesmen for the development.

complaint alleges the defendants, by fraud and deception, induced the plaintiffs to buy lots in the subdivision and then breached their contracts. The plaintiffs claim they were induced to buy lots by promises that roads would be built as shown on the official plat of Shining Mountains, that a dam would be built on Cold Creek to form a lake that would be stocked with trout and that common areas and common area easements would be for their exclusive use. It is alleged these were fraudulent representations Chase through the fog a leaves two with tickets A 25-block chase through the Mining City at up to 60 mph in dense fog early Thursday left two persons charged with careless driving. Police said they took chase after observing two cars make illegal left turns off Montana onto Gold. The report said one driver disobeyed seven stop signs before he was stopped at Aluminum and Dakota.

That driver said he had been fighting with the occupants of the other vehicle and was trying to evade them. Both drivers were ticketed and ordered to appear in police court. Linda Campbell, 18, of 707 N. Montana said the front end of her car was damaged Wednesday by a hit-and-run driver in a parking lot north of the New Deal Bar. Attempted robbery was reported by Clarence Bauer, no address given, who said he was approached by a young man in a parking lot on Platinum and Nevada.

Bauer said when the man asked him for a cigarette, another young man jumped him from behind. Wally Hansen of Butte said all four tires on his car were deflated and the gas cap was stolen between 6 and 10 a.m. Thursday at the National Center for Appropriate Technology on Continental Drive. Henry Smigel of 2130 Roberts said he found a blue 10-speed bicycle with a black seat Wednesday in the alley by his home. Edward Wenzel of Roosevelt Drive said the unlocked back door of his home was pushed open between 8 a.m.

and 7:15 p.m. Wednesday. There was no report of missing items. Arlen Morrill, 86, dies Longtime Butte resident and former machinist Arlen Morrill, 86, of Browns Gulch died Thursday after an illness. He was born July 17, 1893, to Mr.
