SDNY COURTHOUSE,
June 12 – Alongside the
multi-district ignition switch
litigation, Christopher
Hammatt, Susan Hammatt, Edwin
Tanglao and Joseph Hoats
allegedly created a fictitious
$16.5 million settlement
agreement to get litigation
funding from Funding
Companies.
On June 12, U.S.
District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Judge Paul G. Gardephe held a
proceeding. Inner City Press
covered it.
The
defendants are all out on
bail. The US Attorney's Office
says it will be seeking a
superseding indictment, with
more charges against
Hoats. Judge
Gardephe said, I'm not going
to set a trial date now,
there's too much uncertain. No
trails until the Fall, if
then. But let's set a schedule
for motions. Mr.
Duboulay?
Donald D.
Duboulay replied, The problem
is traveling to meet my
client.
Judge Gardephe proposed, Sixty
days?
Duboulay said, I'd prefer
more... (The
indictment refers to Car
Company 1, but it sure sounds
like General Motors since that
is the ignition switch
litigation Judge Gardephe is
handling.)
The case is US v.
Hammatt, 19-cr-67 (Gardephe).
