Sure [from a public court filing]:
******** The attitude of Plaintiff's counsel toward the judicial system has previously been recognized. See, e.g., Cury vs Philip Morris USA, 93 Civ. 2395, 1995 U.S. Dist. Lexis 14798 (D.C.S.D.N.Y. 1995); (Deposition taken in Korea suppressed due to the behavior of Samuel D. Rosen during the deposition, and the witness' resultant departure from the deposition.);
Schering Corporation vs Vitarine Pharmaceuticals, Inc., 124 F.R.D. 580 (D.C.D.N.J. 1989) (Samuel D. Rosen, his co-counsel, and his client assessed at least $50,000.00 in Rule 11 sanctions because of Mr. Rosen's false oral and written representations to the court.); Unique Concepts, Inc. vs Brown, 115 F.R.D. 292 (D.C.S.D.N.Y. 1987) (Samuel D. Rosen sanctioned for conduct "undertaken in bad faith, intended to harass and delay, and reflect[ing] a willful disregard for the orderly process of justice.").
In May, 1994, Helena K. Kobrin and her firm (then known as "Bowles & Moxon") were ordered to pay $17,775.00 in sanctions for the presentation and prosecution of a frivolous civil RICO claim on behalf of RTC. Religious Technology Center vs Gerbode, No. CV 93-2226 AWT, 1994 U.S. Dist. Lexis 6432 (D.C.C.D.Ca.).
In or about October, 1979, the Honorable Charles Richey accepted a stipulation of evidence in United States vs Mary Sue Hubbard, et al., Criminal No. 78-401 (D.C.D.C.) The signers of that stipulation included Michael Hertzberg, Esq., who is presently Mr. Moxon's co-counsel in the McPherson case, and United States Attorney Carl Rauh. At pages 212 - 214 of that stipulation, Mr. Moxon, then as now affiliated with Scientology, is identified as having knowingly produced some nine pages of forged handwriting exemplars in response to a grand jury subpoena, and having sworn in an accompanying affidavit to the authenticity of the exemplars.
******** I knew about Kobrin and Moxon, but the Rosen cases were new to me. Guess if figures.
