SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Nov 22 – The law firm of Roche
Cyrulnik Freedman LLP,
initially focused on
block-chain, cannabis and
"other high-tech industries,"
fired its partner Jason
Cyrulnik.
On May 13, 2021 U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York Judge
John G. Koeltl held a
proceeding. Inner City Press
covered it.
The lawyer for
the firm said that associates
had been threatening to quit.
It was said they would have
preferred to handle this
privately, but "here we
are."
The firm
wanted a declaratory judgment
that the firing was valid
under the MOU.
Jump cut to
November 22, 2022 when Judge
Koetlt issued an order
reversing a September 28, 2022
discovery ruling by the
assigned Magistrate Judge
Sarah Netburn, which quashed
Cyrulnik's subpoena to depose
non-party Christen
Ager-Hanssen, who "allegedly
told Cyrulnik that Roche
effectively had admitted to
Ager-Hanssen that
Cyrulnik's allegations were
true."
The case
continues. It is Roche
Cyrulnik Freedman LLP v.
Cyrulnik, 21-cv-1746 (Koeltl)
