SDNY COURTHOUSE,
August 18 – There was a
proceeding in BSG Resources
(Guinea) v. George Soros, et
al., on February 5, 2021
and Inner City Press
covered and live tweeted it,
below.
On August 17,
Soros' lawyers wrote to
demand deposition of Beny
Steinmetz and Dag Cramer.
Plaintiff's lawyers have
replied that the Soros demand
is improper as it was not
prefaced by any meet and
confer.
Judge Keenan
issued an "ORDER denying as
moot [274] Letter Motion to
Compel... Should Mr.
Cramer and Mr. Steinmetz fail
to appear for their 30(b)(1)
depositions as ordered
previously, they will be in
violation of a Court Order,
and Defendants may move for
sanctions and other relief, as
appropriate."
But now on August
18, Dag Cramer through counsel
has written it to say he never
said he agreed to be deposed,
and cannot and will not do so
on August 24. So now what?
Watch this site.
From Feb 5, 2021:
Plaintiiff's counsel: There
were several presidents of
Guinea during the time period,
until George Soros got
involved with the new
president and changed all the
rights... Soros or him minions
told us with sufficient money
or bribes we could keep our
rights.
Plaintiff's
counsel: Judge Keenan correct
described our allegations as
George Soros corrupting the
process in Guinea. Our claims
are against Soros, not the
government of Guinea.
Judge Wang: Is it
pronounced Vah-lay or
Vail? A:
Vah-lay...
Judge Wang: And
when was what you call the
kangaroo court?
Plaintiff's
counsel: Sorry, it was a
kangaroo administrative
tribunal.... George Soros came
on the scene with President
Conde
Soros' counsel:
BSG is affiliated with Beny
Steinmetz. They began under a
military regime. Alpha Conde
was elected in 2010. Under
him, an administrative
tribunal found there had been
bribes to the fourth wife of a
previous
president.
Soros' counsel:
We disagree with Judge
Keenan's decision. But here we
are.
Judge Wang
directs the parties to do
directed discovery then submit
a status letter.
The case is BSG
Resources (Guinea) Limited et
al v. Soros et al., 17-cv-2726
(Keenan / Wang)
