So that the Court can understand the magnitude of the work required of counsel and the accounting firm, the Court should be aware that this case involves complex business dealings over a lengthy period of time. Thousands of documents (including numerous file cabinets removed from Mr. Turek’s office) are being stored by the government. Defendant was aware of this fact at the time the current trial date was established, but counsel was unaware that her client also was in possession of numerous boxes of documents himself. To date, Mr. Turek has brought twenty-nine (29) bankers boxes of documents to counsel, and he continues to search for more that could be relevant. Counsel has reviewed almost all of these documents at least once, and most of them twice, but each review leads to additional questions and adds to the complexity of the case.

In addition, Mr. Turek has filed bankruptcy personally, and the related companies have filed for bankruptcy protection as well. These bankruptcy proceedings are inextricably intertwined with the SEC issues charged in the Indictment. There was also federal court litigation relating to the patents and their value (an issue in the Indictment) and a corresponding civil suit by the SEC against Mr. Turek which was resolved. The legal and factual issues are complex, interrelated with the other court proceedings and document-intensive. Counsel has reviewed volumes of documents relating to court proceedings and must review volumes more. She has spoken with several of the attorneys and accountants involved in these proceedings and is still in the process of tracking down others. These attorneys and accountants have sometimes proved helpful and knowledgeable; at other times, their files have been inaccessible and their memories faulty. Further, it is often difficult to obtain time-consuming cooperation from professionals who work by the hour with an expectation that they will be paid.
