Re: Manhattan Club Lawsuit (by Fibo N.):

I am wondering why Louis M. Sullivan at the AG's office assumed there was no "settling the case but pursuing it despite TMC's continual delays". The settlement discussions are going on along with the pursuing the case! here is the quote from the Judge Eileen Rakower' Stipulation on MARCH 22, 2017:

"IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED BY AND BETWEEN THE UNDESIGNED COUNSEL, THAT:

1. BECAUSE OF ONGOING SETTLEMENT DISCUSSIONS, ORAL ARGUMENT SHALL BE ADJOURNED ON RESPONDENT'S PENDING MOTION FOR RELIEF FROM THE ASSET FREEZE TO PAY LEGAL FEES (DKT. NO. 368)

2. ORAL ARGUMENT ON RESPONDENT'S MOTION (DKT. NO. 368), SHALL BE HEARD ON JUNE 29, 2017 AT 2.30 PM, A TIME THAT IS CONVENIENT FOR THE COURT."

Stipulation is available on the court docs on-line https://iapps.courts.state.ny.us/fbem/DocumentDisplayServlet?documentId=MkwjilkfzUBbul51AiM_PLUS_Jw==&system=prod

My guess, the owner who talked to Louis M. Sullivan at the AG's office, contacted Sullivan before the Stipulation was issued on 03.22.17; otherwise Mr. Sullivan provided no-full information or disinformation.

From a TMC owner: "I just called and spoke to Louis M. Sullivan at the AG's office and voiced my concerns about their possible settlement talks with TMC. He seemed surprised at my terminology and replied that they were not settling the case but pursuing it despite TMC's continual delays. He recommended that I go on the website < https://ag.ny.gov/complaint-forms > and file a complaint form so they can track all of the issues we have against TMC. The Consumer Fraud form also has an option to request how you'd like it resolved, ie, money back which was my choice. There's also a form for Price Gouging. I'd recommend that you have all of your documents in attachment form ready before you begin your entry as you submit immediately. Mr. Sullivan also said out of state people like myself can file complaints on the website. The AG's office compiles all of our complaints as part of the evidence in their case. So that's another action we can all take in addition to contacting Judge Rakower and the attorneys mentioned." In regards to the Lowell Sidney's case here is the re-post from susanp816 on Redweek, March, 23: " I received this message back from the attorney when I asked him why the class action suit was dismissed: There were issues with Statute of limitations, inability to demonstrate a breach, and that there is no private right of action under the Martin Act."
