Fish


She tipped her hand a few (maybe more) hearings ago when she was ready to rule on the Summary Judgement. I really don't know why she hasn't to date. I appeared she was ready to do so months ago. I believe it is a part of the bigger picture to be added to one big ruling she will decide on soon. IMO I will try to find the audio. If somebody else has easier access to it, then please post.

TIA....

It is now known that the GS will expire on Aug 30. After that any party to the case has the right to ask THJMW to render her decision on the expensive briefed and argued Summary Judgement. I say we ask her for it..



Nooooooo! It can be extended! Read all disclosure carefully. FDIC lawyer even said he may extended it.

The EC was allowed to intervene in the adversary proceeding. To date they have not joined in the motion for summary judgment on the $4 billion. I would think if the ec was allowed to intervene before the global settlement was signed , that the proceeding is technically not disposed of yet despite a settlement by the fdic/jpm/debtors. Perhaps the por has to be rejected first before the joinder could be filed. There is probably no clear answer in the law as to this. Also, I presume that if they did at this point, it may cause the parties to walk away from the settlement table. In addition, it may be unnecessary because the examiner will draw his own conclusion as to JPM s claim to the $4 billion.

Did anyone notice that Walrath scheduled the Tps declaratory action on the Caymens for trial on November 1st. This action was filed on July 7th and I haven't seen any answers/response filed to the TPS pleading yet either by jpm or the debtors. One should reread that pleading. It contains debtors /jpm's allegations and statements to support Tps arguments that there was no conditional exchange and that the p and a specifically excluded jpm from acquiring wmi assets. I can't wait to see the responses to their own words. It is rather extraordinary to set something for trial before the responsive pleadings have been filed. I wonder what role the examiner will play in this proceeding. I wonder why the tps plaintiffs have not added the wmi directors as they threaten in a footnote. To do so would cause a delay of the hearing. Walrath has basically indicated to rosen that until the tps proceeding is resolved, the por is not going to get a confirmation hearing imho. So jpm and the debtors attempts to delay this trial is going to only delay the confirmation process.

Don

I suggest that we contact SUSMAN to get his opinion of this before we act hastly.

I am in agreement with your idea but we have to defer to the experts who are in a better position to advise us if it is a good idea.

The last thing we want to do is HAMSTRING our own legal team with a staged event which may push us back 3 steps!!!

Only after checking with SUSMAN and getting his blessing should we stage this event.


GO WAMMMMUUUU

GO SUSMAN

GO EC

GO EXAMINER
