Law Humor

Monday's Madoff Madness

First, let me say thanks again to my friends at the SEC.

What? Nobody could figure out why I included a "thank you to my friends at the SEC" within the tombstone on this blog since the very first day that I started rambling last December?

Of course I couldn't know whether Howie E. over at Herrick would actually change his stripes about even taking on a law suit against the SEC, but since he found someone to foot the bill, the documents coming out now make his case "easy peasy" as Mikey Beans would say.

David: Ixnay with the Konigsberg stuff. Crapping your pants isn't going to change anything, and trust me when I tell you that when the Feds say they're going to "make a deal", you can be sure that they're jerking your chain. Its not up to them how long you go away for, its up to the Judge, and since you can't remember how to count past $27 million without my help, your cooperation is worthless.

Another thing: "Dimes" needs you to sign off on his asset statement. Mukasey is trying to convince his judge that he's got plenty of assets that he can pledge as bond, and he needs you to confirm that his portfolio has gained 4% a month for each of the past 10 months. Pauly K. said that he'd be happy to do it, but he wants some more equity in exchange for his services. Everyone's gone goniff-crazy these days!

Next: Why anyone would think that any of the Sonny's would know anything is a joke. Just ask Peter. He'll tell you.

Irv: I'm hearing that you're way off on coming up with an accounting explanation re: why SIPC is calculating Bernie Dollar transfers from one account to another as if they were withdrawals. Crazy!. I'm thinking that you people should be outsourcing to Konigsberg's firm--and his staff is already up to speed. Nan said she's getting bored down in Boca, and now that her Bentley is in the shop, she'd be happy to do some part time hours for you.

I'm having an early dinner with John Rigas and the other boys tonight, but I'll be taking emails later on.
