Re: Manhattan Club Lawsuit (by Chris V.):

who is the "new judge"? what was/is the, i assume private, class action suit about? was it summarily dismissed by the court? is the case still in progress? who are the class action plaintiffs? who is their attorney? sooo many unanswered questions. most of us were not even aware that a class action suit was taking place given the fact that the NYSAG AND THE MANHATTAN CLUB/EICHNER, ET AL are still in litigation, and that private legal action could not take place until that case is settled. my understanding was that attorney lowell was building a client base to eventually develop a class action suit (after paying him $300 upfront), but that this case didn't get to court as of this date. again, soooo many unanswered questions. and according to the owner-attorney," It would be very powerful if TMC owners wrote to let this judge know there is a whole group of people with similar complaints." that seems to obviate the issue and the NYSAG'S CASE AGAINST THE MANHATTAN CLUB. the current judge, honorable RAKOWER, is well-aware of TMC owners' issues, complaints and financial hardships due to the fraudulent actions of TMC. it seems redundant to present them to her again. however if other owners feel it is essential to present our complaints to the judge again, i certainly will follow suit.

keep in touch.

Hey Chris,

I am not a lawyer. Basically a class action suit has been filed by the plaintiff's. The legal document above is TMC's response. TMC is asking the court to dismiss the class action on the above mentioned legal grounds. A tmc owner attorney reviewed the brief. The critique is "this is a well written document and it could persuade a judge. It would be very powerful if TMC owners wrote to let this judge know there is a whole group of people with similar complaints.

Irene, if we all write, (once again) I assume this would be to a different judge...do we know who he or she is? It's hard to decipher with all that legalese if there is a specific judge mentioned. Thank you.
