The knee-jerk application by the courts of statutes of limitation to prevent us from ever presenting our evidence in court does not disprove the fundamental legitimacy of our claim against Ms Taylor.

IN my opinion the Orkins are attacking the wrong party. Taylor arguably bought the painting in good faith that she was buying a painting with a clear title.

I believe the Orkins grief should be with Sotheby’s. They did not practice due diligence in selling the painting which from what I have read was common practice with Nazi stolen art for decades.

The large prestigious art/auction houses for years bought and sold art stolen buy the Nazis ignoring the obvious facts, willingly believing bogus bills of sale and/or providence documents.

Yes, but Liz has the painting. Had she lost, she'd go after Sothebys
