I have no idea. I doubt that a lawyer would disclose confidential client information and I doubt Brian would join in any games to defame me or FR. I have no idea where the email message came from. I would hope that no more of our communications get posted. I will be asking our new lawyer to contact Brian on Monday to see if he knows anything about this. ThanksAll I've seen so far is an e-mail from Buckley to Arator stating that you were advised of the potential costs of the FR vs. Eschoir suit, and referring to other e-mails Buckley sent to you without quoting them. The e-mail to Arator closed with Buckley saying, "You can quote me on that."
I can't believe Buckley would actually disclose info that a client wants to be kept confidential, and I don't think that's what has happened here. Of course, if the client denies that his attorney advised him about a particular fact, the attorney would then have every right to set the record straight.
Like I said: I think Buckley advised you at one point that the bill could go as high as $75K - $100K, and you probably read and deleted that e-mail at about 3:30 AM with about 100 other e-mails. The sigificance of that message did not register at the time.
This is how disagreements arise. People who work too hard, too late at night, may miss a detail or two. This description fits all three of us. And that's what a paid staff would be for: keeping track of the details.
Well, I have no idea of where the email came from. People are claiming it came direct from Brian. But these same people have also declared their intent to destroy FR, so consider the source. If it did come from Briam and he's trying to set the record straight, I don't think this particular message did a very good job. That's one of the reasons I doubt it was Brian. The entire record of our communications would tell a different story (not that I would recommend that he or anyone else release it). And, if it is coming from Brian, then I do not think he's doing the right thing. I'd rather not comment much more on this until after our new lawyer gets a chance to talk to Brian. We will see if he is releasing information and what is intentions are if true.
One thing for sure, there are people who would like to destroy FR and then there are people who see money in owning it.
