Re: Lenkar v. Kraber
Dear Mr. Sheely:
I received your letter of April 18, 1997. By sending the Seven
Thousand, Three Hundred Dollar check ($7,300.00) to you, I was
only paying off the amount of monies we do not dispute are owed.
I would appreciate it if you would please accept the check and
give it to your client as reflected by their written agreement.
By accepting these monies, I assure you that I will not claim
that this constitutes a waiver of any other claims being made by
your client or are accepting the check as a full and final
release of all claims. However, if you are not Willing to accept
the check, I will post the funds with the Court of Common Pleas
of cumberland County. Unless I receive word to the contrary
within seven (7) days, I will post the monies.
The only reason I copied your client was that under the law I
believe I have a requirement to copy all persons whom monies are
being sent to their attorneys as partial or full payment of
settlements.
I will be forwarding to you our First Set of Requests for
PrOduction of Documents and Interrogatories shortly.
Very truly yours,
SCBIlIDT AIm ROHCA, P.C.
