Gentlemen, Mr. Wolfington has initialed the changes to the Consent to Assignment (copy attached) and I forwarded it to The lrvine Company for signature. I received the following response from Irvine's counsel: "Jim: Thanks. The proposed revisions are fine. However, Irvine's usual practice is to sign this type of document last. Please obtain the appropriate signatures (and initials) and we'll proceed from there. Thanks, Ernie" These actions on my part were not, however, necessary. They were done as yet another fruitless attempt by us to bring to an end the bad faith stalling tactics that you and your client's have employed throughout the litigation and settlement of this matter. Your continued efforts to delay final resolution of this matter are further evidence of Mr. Regen's contempt for the legal system. The Consent to Assignment that we sent to you should have been signed by Coast ATM almost a month ago. The parties to the Settlement Agreement and lrvine Company have all agreed to the language of the Consent to Assignment and, in fact, have all insisted on it being signed. There is absolutely no valid reason for Coast ATM to refuse to sign it. In light of the above, and your failure to meet the generous deadline extension that we offered last week (and which expired last night), we have been instructed to file a Motion to enforce the settlement and to recover all attorneys fees and costs incurred since we agreed to settle pursuant to Paragraph 22 of the Settlement Agreement. We will be before the same judge that sanctioned Howard Regen for his deposition and discovery abuses and will let him know that the sanction has not been paid. We will also request additional sanctions based on his conduct to date. We anticipate filing the motion by close of business today.
