I Never practiced in New York, but I was the resident partner of a New York law firm. I did spend time with the New York offices and have a number of contacts in New York. I am giving the attorney benifit of the doubt, as I have only heard from three board members who said things that made me wonder if they were correct or not. I want to keep an open mind. But, it doesn't matter to me, as I am just a club member. -----Original Message----- From: VPREZHMF@xxxxxxx To: showgsd-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx; sally@xxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Sat, 28 Apr 2007 1:28 PM Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] NY attorney In a message dated 4/28/2007 3:15:50 P.M.
