RE:     Notice of Claim Against Susan Tius and Rush Moore Craven Sutton Morry & Beh

           Ref. Harmon Ch. 7 Bankruptcy Case No 99-04339


Dear Ms. Tius:


This is a follow-up to my first Notice of Claim Letter dated December 12, 2003, in which I stated:

 

“This is a Notice of Claim against you and the law firm referenced above for racketeering, tax fraud, mail fraud, wire fraud, conspiracy to commit fraud, breach of attorney-client privilege, conflicts of interests, obstruction of justice, and other wrongful acts.

 

“As evidence attesting to the truthfulness of these allegations, I am providing you a copy of Bradley R. Tamm’s facsimile dated April 6, 2002, addressed to you, Steven Guttman, and Matt Tsukazaki. In this communication, Mr. Tamm attached a copy of my letter to Gregory T. Dunn dated March 30, 2002, and stated:

 

‘TRANSMITTED HEREWITH IS A COPY OF A LETTER RECENTLY RECEIVED FROM MR. HARMON. APPARENTLY, HE IS SENDING NEARLY IDENTICAL LETTERS TO ALL OF US.

 

‘I WOULD REQUEST THAT MR. TSUKAZAKI RELEASE TO ME A COPY OF ANY SIMILAR LETTERS SENT TO HIM, MS. TIUS, OR BISHOP ESTATES. I BELIEVE WE SHOULD ALL COOPERATE IN EXCHANGING SUCH INFORMATION FOR OUR MUTUAL BENEFIT AND THE PRESERVATION OF OUR CARRIER’S INTERESTS.”

 

“I request that you promptly report this claim to your insurance carrier, and ask that their authorized Claims Adjuster contact me as soon as possible for further information.”


As I have not yet been contacted by your insurance carrier, or their independent Claims Adjuster, I am sending this newly disclosed information arising from the referenced Arbitration hearings to your attention. This information is contained in the Declaration of Steven Guttman in Support of Claimant’s Request for Attorneys’ Fees and Costs, dated September 2, 2004. In this lengthy document, there are many entries pertaining to direct contacts between Steven Guttman, Bradley Tamm, Matt Tsukazaki, and Susan Tius, which gives further evidence of conspiracy to defraud the estate for personal enrichment.


As examples, I refer you to the following entries in Steven Guttman’s time sheets:

Although the brief entries of Steven Guttman do not disclose what was discussed in these communications, I maintain that the fact there were direct, undisclosed contacts among these parties provides clear evidence of collusion among the attorneys Bradley Tamm, Steven Guttman, Susan Tius and Matt Tsukazaki in this case.


I have already indicated to certain other parties against whom I have separate outstanding claims, that I would be willing to attempt to negotiate a global settlement with all parties involved in this matter. I would be willing to include you and Rush, Moore, Craven, Sutton, Morry & Bey in these proposed global settlement negotiations. More information regarding these separate claims can be found at:

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or comments. Your prompt response to this letter will be appreciated.


Very truly yours,




Bobby N. Harmon, CPCU, ARM
