ROBERT C. JOSEFSBERG From: ROBERT C. JOSEFSBIERG Sent: T 92:16 PM ' To: Subject: Re: Epstein Roy - I need to go on record regarding Mr Epsteins message that without any settlements there will be a "push back" on any future payments. First, Mr Epstein has no authority to "push back" on payments. Secondlye although I am vey interested in settling some cases, I will not let Mr Epstein coerce me into settling for some clients so that I can get paid for representing others. It would be unethical for me to settle any cases in order to avoid Mr Epstins threatened "push back". If I do settle any cases, it will have nothing to do with Mr epstein waving the money carrot in front of me. Third, on friday, Jan 23rd,(or Sat the 24th) you advised that Mr Epstein would promptly pay all costa and all legal fees through and including 1/23. I told you that I questioned his authity to "stop" paying for time and costa incurred after 1/23. BUT - I appreciated the fact that he would promptly pay our next bill - covering only through 1/23. I told you that I would not send out this new bill untill Mr epstein paid our prior, 120 and 90 day overdue statements. I didn't want a "new" statement to delay payment on the old overdue statments. Does your last email mean that Mr epstein is breaching his agreement to promptly pay for all time/costs incurred up to 1/23 ? I will send a new statement covering everything from approx 12/15 through 1/23. Please let me know whether Mr Epstein will comply with your message of 1/23, or he will "push back" on this next statement. My next statement will be sent the day after Mr Epstein pays the other old staements. If he did actually send the check today, I should have the next statment mailed by thurs or fri. Thus far Mr Epstein has made 3 changes re where I should send the statements. In order to avoid further delay and confusion, please let me know where you want me to send the next statements. I apologize if this email has typos!, etc but its the best I can do while I'm in trial. I do not apologize for the tone of this note - I am hurt and upset - I think that Mr Epstein is taking advantage of me, and taking advantage of our (Roy/Bob) relationship. Will further discuss this w you by phone or in personm. Thanks Original Messa e From: Roy BLACK To: ROBERT C. JO F BER Sent: Tue Feb 03 12:47:59 2009 Subject: Epstein Bob: I am told a check went out today. I am also told there will be push back on further expenses without a settlement. So we need to discuss settling the cases. Jeffrey will not pay more for the fees and expenses without the start of settlement negotiations. So let's discuss.
