SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Dec 14 – Mario Rinaldi filed a
lawsuit about selling
Champagne Paul Goerg.
Witnesses outside the US do
not want to travel to the
country for depositions or
trial.
On
February 11, 2021 U.S.
District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Judge Vernon S. Broderick held
a proceeding. Inner City Press
covered it.
Judge
Broderick described for the
parties how an SDNY trial
would work: no paper
documents, for example, to
avoid the spread of
COVID.
One of the
lawyers, in this open
proceeding, asked to go "off
the record" to say that an
unnamed person has an
unspecified medical fear, and
"would prefer not to travel to
the US."
Jump cut to
September 8, 2021 when Judge
Broderick held another
proceeding, this time to talk
about trial dates. For October
18, this case is behind two
criminal cases, and another
civil case. Judge Broderick
said going forward on that
date would require both
criminal defendants to plead,
and for the other civil matter
to settle or be delayed. So it
is, with the COVID backlog.
On December 14,
Judge Broderick held another
conference, and discussion
turned to travel overseas, and
to February 17.
The case is
Rinaldi v. SCA La Goutte, D'Or
et al., 16-cv-1901 (Broderick)
