Nickey Court of Common Pleas of Cumberland county No. 95-3629 Civil Term Scheduling of Arbitrators Dear Gentlemen: Please be advised that on Friday morning, February 9th, I had an opportunity to review your Notice of Hearing by Board of Arbitrators dated January 29, 1996. The purpose of this instant correspondence is to request that this matter be vacated and rescheduled so as to better accommodate my schedule, Currently, my largest impediment to moving forward to arbitration on Friday, March 8th, is the fact that I am scheduled for a jury trial in the County Court of Routt County, ColOl'ado, in Case No, 95T644, ~lli Y-t. Charles Clark, on March 7, 1996. Because it is impossible to gauge when a jury verdict can be expected to be received in that case, it simply is not possible for me to make any arrangements on that day for travel, Assuming, roughly four hours of air travel from Colorado to Pennsylvania, as well as the fact that Steamboat Springs is Bome 200 miles from Denver International Airport, reasonably expecting my appearance on Friday, March 8th, is unrealistic under these circumstances, CANTI\FIO and IIAHDY.MOORE Frededck I. IIUVilllh, ElJq. Hobert Muldedg, Esq. Samuel Milkes, ElJq, Februilry 12, 1 ~9G Page 2 As a general matter, my month of March is essentially "booked" at this juncture. However, because of settlement of other matters, my calendar in April is fairly open. The resetting of arbitration on any of the following days is acceptable I April 1 through 3/ April R through 12/ April 18 or 19, April 29 or 30. It would be appreciated if you could review your schedules to see whether these a 1 tern,1t ille diltes olrc accl~rtuble t.:l you. Because I have extended family in the Philadelphia area, the rescheduling this matter around the Easter holiday (Sunday, April 7th) would work best into my schedule, assuming such is acceptable to all the other parties. I would be more than happy to arrange for a conference call between all the parties if such would facilitate the rescheduling of this arbitration, Your prompt attention to this matter ie appreciated, Si'd ~alph A, Cantafio FOR THE FIRM XCI Mr, and Mrs. William Nickey Harold S.
