Exception Records

These jurisdictions are tracked because they reveal where liability is hidden, shifted, or not yet realized — not because they have documented settlement totals. Each record carries a status flag explaining what kind of signal it represents. No fake totals. No empty charts.

OR
NO DEPARTMENT

Lostine

Pop. 200 · 0 (department dissolved 2019)

Lostine dissolved its police department in 2019 after its sole officer resigned. Law enforcement is now provided by the Wallowa County Sheriff. This is a documented policy outcome: zero direct municipal exposure through full liability transfer.

OR
RISK POOLED

Condon

Pop. 700 · 2-3 (estimated)

Condon participates in the Oregon Municipal Risk Management Agency (OMRMA) or similar state risk pool. Individual settlement exposure is pooled — the city may never appear in public settlement records even if incidents occur. This is a visibility gap, not an absence of risk.

View record
TX
PIPELINE ONLY

Loving County

Pop. 64 · 1-2 deputies

Active federal civil rights lawsuit filed 2022 (intimidation, abuse of process, conspiracy to deprive constitutional rights). No settled dollar amount. Population: 64 — the least populous county in the United States. Any single settlement would represent extraordinary per-capita exposure.

View record
MT
NO PUBLIC DATA

Petroleum County

Pop. 496 · 12 (including Sheriff Dan Linder)

No documented settlements found. Petroleum County Sheriff's Office has 12 members serving a population of 496 — approximately 1 officer per 41 residents, one of the highest officer-to-population ratios in the dataset. Montana counties use the MMIA risk pool, which does not publish individual-county settlement data.

View record
NE
NO DEPARTMENT

Monowi

Pop. 1 · 0 (no municipal department)

Monowi has a population of 1 (Elsie Eiler, 88). There is no municipal police department. Law enforcement is provided by the Boyd County Sheriff and Nebraska State Patrol. No municipal police liability is possible at the village level. Included as a boundary condition: the theoretical minimum of a law enforcement jurisdiction.
