Courtroom F, 15th Floor

 Re: Nevis v. Wells Fargo 

 Case No. C-07-2568 MHP 

Dear Judge Larson: 

I am the attorney for Defendant John B. Spear in the above entitled matter. There is a 

settlement conference appearance scheduled in your court for August 11, 2010, at 2:00 

pm followed by a status conference appearance before the Honorable Marilyn H. Patel on 

August 23, 2010 at 3:00 pm. 

Mr. Spear has no funds to contribute to any settlement of this matter and has already 

incurred a substantial bill for attorney’s fees and costs to my office for representation in 

this matter, none of which have been paid. There is no anticipation that the expense 

incurred by Mr. Spear will be paid. As a result, all appearances made by me in this case, 

which necessitate a trip to San Francisco from Los Angeles have been made at my cost 

and without reimbursement for either the cost to travel or time. 

Mr. Spear resides in Temecula, California. In order to be physically present in San 

Francisco for this appearance he will be required to travel from home to the court at a 

cost which imposes a hardship upon him. 

To avoid the financial hardship to both Mr. Spear and myself, I request that the court 

allow me to make the appearance telephonically, and authorize Mr. Spear to be available 

by telephone should any action take place in the course of the appearance for which his 

consent would be required. 

Very truly yours, 

Robert A. Clinco Robert A. Clinco
