1 TELECONFERENCE HEARING

2 WEDNESDAY, MAY 20, 2015

3 10:02 A.M.

4 MR. BERMAN: Yes, good morning, Judge.

5 THE COURT: Good morning. And, Mr. Roth, on

6 behalf of the respondent?

7 MR. ROTH: Yes, good morning, Judge.

8 THE COURT: Good morning. And I should have

9 a Constance Boudreau as the court reporter from County

10 Court Reporters.

11 COURT REPORTER: Yes, good morning, Your

12 Honor.

13 THE COURT: Good morning. Ms. Boudreau, are

14 you ready to proceed?

15 COURT REPORTER: Yes, Your Honor.

16 THE COURT: Okay. We're on the record in the

17 matter of Global Aircraft Interiors, Inc., Docket No.

18 FAA-2014-0324. Today is Wednesday, May 20, 2015, and

19 the parties have reconvened for a new conference for

20 purposes of discussing the status of the case, their

21 progress in addressing various issues, and to advise

22 the Court what litigation schedule, if any, they still

23 need to have scheduled. So, I'll note and say that Mr.

24 Zachary M. Berman, the attorney of record for the FAA,

25 is present. Mr. Robert Roth, the pro se
U.S. Dept. of Trans. vs G.A.I. Hearing May 20, 2015 VR # 1679-3 Page 5

1 representative for Global Aircraft Interiors, Inc., is

2 present.

3 MR. ROTH: Yes, that is correct.

4 THE COURT: And our last conference was set

5 on and heard on April 16, 2015. At that time, we

6 addressed a variety of different matters; and as a

7 result, on April 17, 2015, an order authorizing

8 respondent attorney to withdraw effective April 16,

9 2015, cancelling June 2015 hearing and granting other

10 relief, was filed. As part of this order, the parties

11 were directed to confer privately to discuss the

12 status of the case and determine what issues remained

13 in dispute. So, let's start with that, and I will

14 turn to you, Mr. Berman, as counsel for the FAA. Can

15 you tell the Court when you conferred with Mr. Roth

16 and what the result of that conversation were that you

17 can discuss with the Court today?

18 MR. BERMAN: Yes. We didn't really discuss

19 the merits of the case. We more discussed the

20 possibility of settling the case, and we've had this

21 communications over the last couple of days, including

22 as recently as yesterday, and we had email

23 communications where we talked about settlement and,

24 but I said that, he made a particular settlement offer

25 that wasn't acceptable to us. And I said, you know,
U.S. Dept. of Trans. vs G.A.I. Hearing May 20, 2015 VR # 1679-3 Page 6

1 we could consider, you know, and I had made a

2 settlement offer, and I said we can go down in our

3 offer if he provides some financial information and,

4 because he was claiming inability to pay. And Mr.

5 Roth said that he didn't have his tax returns for what

6 I believe is from the last couple of years, and he was

7 able to provide a, complete a DOJ financial form. And,

8 I mean, it is something, but we did reduce the amount

9 that we, you know, we did reduce our settlement offer

10 based on that, but I don't think we'd be able to

11 reduce that anymore unless we have more information,

12 including the tax returns, and although our offer was

13 considerably lower than what, lower than our original

14 settlement offer and considerably lower than what we

15 proposed in our, you know, as opposed to a penalty, he

16 says he can't afford to pay that amount. But, that's

17 THE COURT: Okay, well, yes. Let's talk a

18 little bit about specifics. Can you identify the

19 first date that you conferred with Mr. Roth about any

20 of these matters?

21 MR. BERMAN: You mean the recent

22 discussions?

23 THE COURT: Right. If you just started

24 talking in the last couple of days, I just want to

25 have a sense of when that discussion started.
U.S. Dept. of Trans. vs G.A.I. Hearing May 20, 2015 VR # 1679-3 Page 7

1 MR. BERMAN: I believe it was about a week

2 ago. I don't know the exact date.

3 THE COURT: Well, today is May 20th, 2015.

4 About a week ago, it was May 13, 2015. Can you give

5 me an idea the time was exactly one week ago or

6 something other than that?

7 MR. BERMAN: I'm looking through my emails,

8 and it's, I guess Mr. Roth could correct me if I'm

9 wrong, but I think we've had communications over the

10 last two days. And there might have been

11 communications before that, but I just don't remember.

12 THE COURT: Okay.

13 MR. BERMAN: I mean, the discussions were

14 more in earnest over the last two days about the

15 issues of settlement and financial information.

16 THE COURT: Okay. Well, let's just say that

17 on May 18th and May 19th, 2015, the parties had some

18 discussions. Were these only by email, or was it, was

19 there also a phone call?

20 MR. BERMAN: It was, I don't remember if I

21 spoke to him in person, you know. I know he left me

22 voicemail messages, and I know, and there were email

23 communications. I don't remember, I think, yes, I

24 think I spoke to him by phone as well.

25 THE COURT: But you don't have a record of
U.S. Dept. of Trans. vs G.A.I. Hearing May 20, 2015 VR # 1679-3 Page 8

1 when that was?

2 MR. BERMAN: It was within the last two

3 days.

4 THE COURT: Okay. Anything else you'd like

5 to add to that summary, Mr. Berman, before I turn to

6 Mr. Roth?

7 MR. BERMAN: No.

8 THE COURT: Okay. Mr. Roth

9 MR. ROTH: Yes.

10 THE COURT: based on the records that you've

11 kept, would you agree or disagree that the

12 communications that you've had with Mr. Berman

13 regarding the status of this case have occurred within

14 the last two days?

15 MR. ROTH: Yes, Judge, that is correct

16 THE COURT: Okay.

17 MR. ROTH: to the best of my knowledge.

18 THE COURT: And would you agree or disagree

19 about the content of those communications based on

20 what Mr. Berman has said? Did that sound fairly

21 accurate to you, or was there something missing or

22 misstated?

23 MR. ROTH: It was fairly accurate. One of

24 the things that was mentioned or that I mentioned, the

25 email that was not mentioned in regards to tax
U.S. Dept. of Trans. vs G.A.I. Hearing May 20, 2015 VR # 1679-3 Page 9

1 returns, is that I mentioned that I owed over $18,000

2 to my accounting firm. And due to that fact, they

3 were not going to be so open to get information for

4 me. So, I requested what should I do, and he sent me

5 the, a long form, I don't know the name of it, with

6 financial information that I did, I sent to him, had

7 it notarized and such forth, and presented to him.

8 THE COURT: And when you say "presented to

9 him," are you

10 MR. ROTH: I sent him via fax, Judge.

11 THE COURT: I'm sorry, what?

12 MR. ROTH: I re-sent the form, filled out,

13 via fax.

14 THE COURT: Okay. And when you say "to

15 him," are you referring to Mr. Berman?

16 MR. ROTH: That is correct.

17 THE COURT: Okay. It looks, or it sounds to

18 me like the parties have just started to talk about

19 settlement negotiation. Would that be a fairly

20 accurate summary, Mr. Berman?

21 MR. BERMAN: We have spoken about it a while

22 ago, but we, and this was back in the day when they

23 were still represented by counsel. But we just got

24 back into it the last couple of days. They

25 THE COURT: Well, I'm only
U.S. Dept. of Trans. vs G.A.I. Hearing May 20, 2015 VR # 1679-3 Page 10

1 MR. BERMAN: they don't have

2 THE COURT: I'm only interested right now in

3 the parties' compliance with the order that was issued

4 on April 17, 2015, which was approximately one month

5 ago. And from what I gather from you and Mr. Roth,

6 those, that private conference started two days ago

7 and is not yet completed. Mr. Berman, let me ask you

8 this. Are your settlement negotiations completed at

9 this point, or are you still in the process of

10 exchanging information?

11 MR. BERMAN: Well, I'm not sure if I can

12 answer that. If Mr. Roth is not able to provide any

13 more financial information, it looks like the

14 settlement discussions are over, because it doesn't

15 look like we'd be able to come to a mutually-agreeable

16 amount. We might change our position if he produces,

17 you know, more financial information. If we're

18 THE COURT: So, in other words, you're still

19 available and open to a settlement if information is

20 provided?

21 MR. BERMAN: Yes.

22 THE COURT: Mr. Roth, let me turn back to

23 you.

24 MR. ROTH: Yes, Judge.

25 THE COURT: In this April 17, 2015 order,
U.S. Dept. of Trans. vs G.A.I. Hearing May 20, 2015 VR # 1679-3 Page 11

1 the Court directed you on page 6, paragraph 6, to read

2 the FAA complaint and read the regulation that the FAA

3 alleged that your company has violated. Have you done

4 that?

5 MR. ROTH: Yes, I have.

6 THE COURT: Okay. It also directed you to

7 begin to consider what evidence you might have to

8 support your defenses against the FAA's allegation.

9 Have you started to do that?

10 MR. ROTH: Yes, I've put together some

11 information, Judge.

12 THE COURT: Okay. What, in your opinion, is

13 the status of your settlement negotiations? Are you

14 in a position to continue to provide some additional

15 information to the FAA, or are you finished?

16 MR. ROTH: I have spoken late last evening

17 to my accounting firm, and as a special favor, the

18 senior partner, he has agreed, due to the

19 circumstances, to release some information as

20 requested.

21 THE COURT: So, does that mean that you are

22 still in the process of gathering information for

23 settlement discussions, or are you finished?

24 MR. ROTH: Yes, I am, I'm in the process of

25 gathering information as requested by Mr. Berman of
U.S. Dept. of Trans. vs G.A.I. Hearing May 20, 2015 VR # 1679-3 Page 12

1 tax returns, which I think is more information that he

2 is requesting at this particular time.

3 THE COURT: When, Mr. Roth, is your

4 accounting firm planning to release that information

5 to you?

6 MR. ROTH: They were going to have, they

7 have a senior meeting this Friday morning. At that

8 time, he was going to speak to the other senior

9 partners, get confirmation from them, and I should

10 have an answer, I would expect, by noontime if all the

11 rest of the partners agree.

12 THE COURT: And when you say that, it sounds

13 like there haven't been a complete agreement by your

14 accounting firm to release information to you.

15 There's a discussion about it at this point. Is that

16 MR. ROTH: That is correct, but, but the

17 counsel has, my senior partner that has been my

18 accounting firm for the last many years, has given me

19 a 99 percent that it should not be involved.

20 THE COURT: Well, there's always a 1 percent

21 possibility that it could. But you should know, then,

22 by the 22nd of this month?

23 MR. ROTH: Yes, I think by the afternoon of

24 the 22nd.

25 THE COURT: And if they tell you on the
U.S. Dept. of Trans. vs G.A.I. Hearing May 20, 2015 VR # 1679-3 Page 13

1 afternoon of Friday, May 22nd, 2015 that the

2 information is available, does that mean they're going

3 to give you the information that day?

4 MR. ROTH: I don't think, it would probably

5 take them a couple days to do some research. I would

6 think, really, within a week's time should be

7 reasonable for them.

8 THE COURT: And when you say "a week's

9 time," you're talking about a week from this Friday,

10 May 22nd, 2015?

11 MR. ROTH: Yes, that is correct. So, I'm

12 looking at the calendar. I would say by the 29th, I

13 should have that information available to me. I feel

14 fairly confident in that particular time.

15 THE COURT: And how, if at all, do you think

16 this information will help you in your settlement

17 discussions with Mr. Berman? And you don't have to

18 get into specifics. I'm just curious as to whether or

19 not you think it will be effective or have some

20 effective value in your request to the FAA to continue

21 reducing the proposed fine.

22 MR. ROTH: Yes, I think the, I provided the

23 information to the best of my ability with the forms I

24 was given, and I think the tax returns given by my

25 accounting firm should confirm all the information
U.S. Dept. of Trans. vs G.A.I. Hearing May 20, 2015 VR # 1679-3 Page 14

1 that I had presented to Mr. Berman.

2 THE COURT: Okay. Mr. Berman, let me turn

3 back to you. This, actually the Court can do a

4 variety of different things at this point. But what

5 makes the most sense is to do that which is most

6 efficient, most effective, and that helps the parties

7 if settlement is still viable. So, do you think it is

8 of value to postpone any litigation scheduling a

9 second time to allow you additional time to exchange

10 information with Mr. Roth, or do you think that it

11 would be better to start setting up a discovery

12 schedule now?

13 MR. BERMAN: I think there'd be value in

14 postponing the litigation schedule pending further

15 settlement discussions, but I think that it should be,

16 that that time should be limited to not too long

17 amount of time, because I don't think it, I don't

18 think it's necessary or would be helpful to the

19 process if it's prolonged too much more.

20 THE COURT: What kind of timeline are you

21 looking at as being reasonable?

22 MR. BERMAN: I'd say about a, about a month.

23 THE COURT: So, today is May 20th, 2015. A

24 month would be approximately June 24th, 2015. Dunk it

25 would be helpful for the Court to provide some
U.S. Dept. of Trans. vs G.A.I. Hearing May 20, 2015 VR # 1679-3 Page 15

1 deadlines for information exchange, or dunk that the

2 parties can address that adequately on their own?

3 MR. BERMAN: I think I prefer the, you, the

4 judge, set one date that, and leave it open to us as

5 to, without going into details as to exchange of

6 information, just give us a 30 or whatever amount of

7 days it is to try to come up with some kind of

8 resolution. And if we don't settle by that time, then

9 we'll go ahead and have a litigation schedule.

10 THE COURT: Mr. Roth, what's your perception

11 or response to that idea? Do you like that idea?

12 MR. ROTH: That would be fine, Judge.

13 That's more than acceptable, and I appreciate that.

14 THE COURT: Okay. Well, then, let's take a

15 look at our calendars, and how about if I, and I can

16 set this, I'm not able to set it on the 24th of June.

17 I can set it either on Monday, June 29th, 2015,

18 Tuesday, June 30, 2015, or Wednesday, July 1st, 2015.

19 Mr. Berman, turning to you first, do any of those days

20 work for you?

21 MR. BERMAN: The Tuesday or Wednesday would

22 be preferable.

23 THE COURT: Okay. Mr. Roth, same question to

24 you.

25 MR. ROTH: Tuesday is perfectly fine if
U.S. Dept. of Trans. vs G.A.I. Hearing May 20, 2015 VR # 1679-3 Page 16

1 that's acceptable to Mr. Berman. Tuesday or Wednesday

2 is fine, but if he has selected Tuesday, that's

3 perfectly acceptable.

4 THE COURT: Okay. I have some other matters

5 in the morning on Tuesday, but I can do those in the

6 early afternoon. How about at 1:30 p.m. eastern time

7 on Tuesday, June 30, 2015? Mr. Berman, would that be

8 acceptable?

9 MR. BERMAN: Yes.

10 THE COURT: And Mr. Roth?

11 MR. ROTH: Yes.

12 THE COURT: So noted. Then I will

13 specifically state that Mr. Roth, I want you to be

14 sure and advise Mr. Berman by email or by phone

15 message on May 22nd, 2015 what results you heard from

16 the accounting firm, just whether there was a thumbs

17 up or thumbs down.

18 MR. ROTH: Mm-hmm. (Indicating

19 affirmatively.)

20 THE COURT: And then, ideally, I'd like to

21 have you, I'm looking at the calendar, provide to Mr.

22 Berman, on or before June 5th, any and all

23 documentation that you've received from the accounting

24 firm.

25 MR. ROTH: Yes.
U.S. Dept. of Trans. vs G.A.I. Hearing May 20, 2015 VR # 1679-3 Page 17

1 MR. ROTH: Your Honor, the date on that was

2 June 2nd, you said?

3 THE COURT: June 5.

4 MR. ROTH: June 5th, I apologize.

5 THE COURT: Now, if there are problems of

6 any kind in getting the materials on or before June

7 5th to Mr. Berman, Mr. Roth, I'd like you to make sure

8 that you tell him what those problems are, and the

9 parties may agree without consulting with the Court to

10 extend that deadline if it's agreeable to both

11 parties.

12 MR. BERMAN: Affirmative, Judge.

13 THE COURT: Okay. And then I would like to

14 have you both actively discussing the documents that

15 are provided immediately after June 5th, or whichever

16 date they're provided whichever comes first, so that

17 at our next conference on June 30, 2015 at 1:30 p.m.,

18 the parties will be well established at that point to

19 know exactly what needs to be done in this case and

20 how it should be done. And if there, if a settlement

21 has been reached, the parties have exchanged whatever

22 documentation prior to June 30, 2015 to accomplish

23 that so that you utilize your time as best you can. I

24 will be issuing an order probably either this

25 afternoon or tomorrow morning that codifies this in
U.S. Dept. of Trans. vs G.A.I. Hearing May 20, 2015 VR # 1679-3 Page 18

1 writing so that you both have it in hand. Mr. Berman,

2 on behalf of your client, is there anything else the

3 Court can do for you today?

4 MR. BERMAN: Just one minor clarification

5 for the record. I said that all our communications

6 with Mr. Roth over the last couple of days were by

7 phone and by email, and he said, and I agree with

8 this, I had forgotten when I said that, his

9 submissions of financial information were by fax.

10 That's the only, just a minor clarification for the

11 record.

12 THE COURT: Okay, thank you very much. Mr.

13 Roth, on behalf of your client, is there anything else

14 that the Court can address for you today?

15 MR. ROTH: Not at this time, Judge. Thank

16 you very much for your cooperation. I appreciate it.

17 THE COURT: You're very welcome. I wish you

18 both good luck on behalf of your clients, with your

19 respective discussions between now and June 30, 2015.

20 With that, we can go off the record, and I wish you

21 all a good day. Thank you.

22 MR. BERMAN: Thank you, Judge.

23 MR. ROTH: Have a very good day, Judge.

24 THE COURT: Bye bye.

25 MR. BERMAN: Take care.
