Jerry do you want to tell everyone here what happened in the Aerotech
bankruptcy hearing a couple days ago or do you want me to?

OK OK I'll do it...

Jerry Irvine stood up at the bankruptcy proceedings to approach the
judge during the introductions and announced his name and that he had
a plan for reorganization of Aerotech. The judge asked him if he was
lawyer. "No". The judge asked him if he was a bidder. "No". The judge
told him to shut up and sit down.

You could almost hear the snickering in the courtroom. It was a riot!

It was TRA's fault -

TRA formed a conspiracy with the judge.  

They paid off the judge with the missing motors stolen by TMT.

My dog ate Jerry's lawyer license.

It was an act of god.

You forgot some:

- I'm not a lawyer, I'm a consultant to a law firm which wishes to remain
unidentified.
- I have a license to practice law right here. Just give me a second to white
out the name of the guy I bought it from and write in my own name.
- Restricting the practice of law to licensed lawyers is an illegal restraint
of trade.
- The ABA has been sitting on my application for months.

Considering your less than stellar track record with USR, I'd say the
probability was never more than 0%.

Ha, but it didn't work..(:-)  BTW, no BOD member has ever told
me to sit down and shut up.  I know I piss them off, every once
in a while; especially when I go off on them about the HPR
pamphlet. But I got great news; I got my membership extended the
last time and it looks like it may have to happen again.

I sat down immediately and the judge was 100% respectful despite any
comments to the contrary.

That's "one way" to look at it.

Correct so far.

The statutory time to even make a reorganization plan has not arrived
yet. My filing served its intended purpose. The judge asked the debtor
several questions directly from it.

Now there is an asset accounting in process, and either the assets will
be sold, a Chapter 7 will be filed, or there will be a reorganization
plan.

If Gary is able to outbid the other folks (unlikely) then status quo
remains.

If my reorganization plan is ultimately implemented, the status quo will
remain.

If the assets are sold to a third party there is no promise of anything
except liquidation.

Glad to have entertained you. My appearance on the record was not
"necessary" to my goal.

And what might that purpose be, hmm? Screwing Gary and AT.

<<If my reorganization plan is ultimately  implemented, the status quo will

Why the hell would the judge have any interest in some screwball "plan"
concocted by a crackpot who is neither a lawyer, a bidder, or even a creditor?
You're just some nutjob who can't even run his own business properly, much less
anyone else's.

I'm sure that would please you greatly.

Quite the opposite... I think Jerry hopes to keep AT
as one functioning entity (under "new ownership"), as
distinct from having it liquidated piecemeal to meet
claims from the other fire victims. (_That_ would be
"screwed" - it seems that Jerry has/had some sort of
hopes of arranging an alternative.)

RayDunakin - 29 Feb 2004 06:56 GMT
<< I think Jerry hopes to keep AT as one functioning entity (under "new

If he truly thinks he could save AT when he can't even get his act together
with USR, he's even more delusional than I thought. BTW, would this be another
unidentified mystery "owner" who would refuse to cooperate with getting motors
certified, like the one Jerry claims is the manufacturer of his current motors?

<<as distinct from having it liquidated piecemeal to meet claims from the other
fire victims. >>

My guess is, that's precisely what he's hoping for and is the most likely
outcome of any interference by Jerry.

1. "Couldn't get his act together" is clearly and exclusively in the
context of TRA/NAR blackballing, banning, and illegal provisions.

2. Filings in Bankruptcy court are determined strictly by procedure,
judicial opinion, and the comments of the parties.

I have an infinitely better chance in the second example.

It's been documeted in court that Gary tried to screw his creditors by
attempting to buy the assets of AT for a lowball number.  At least
what Jerry is doing (within the context of this message) is legal and
much closer to ethical than what Gary has tried.

Based in the bankruptcy filings that were posted, it appears that the
bulk of the "creditors" are actually other victims of the fire, such
as businesses in neighboring units of the damaged building complex,
who appear to be turning around and pressing claims against Aerotech
for their own losses. (It's not clear how justifiable the claims actually
are, but I suspect that AT's ability to effectively contest them may have
been lost with the forced abandonment of its own case against the LVFD).

Under these circumstances, I don't really know what is or isn't "ethical" with
respect to trying to separate out the motor manufacturing process, in operational
form, from the corporate entity targeted by such claims.

Anything judicially approved is ethical. By definition.

Gary's (lawyer) biggest mistake so far was a defective pleading
preventing the judge from giving it to him lock, stock, and barrel
(literally).
