That firm's contact information is: Jones, Foster, Johnston & Stubbs, P.A. Flagler Center Tower, 505 South Flagler Drive, Suirc 1100, West Palm Beach, Florida 33401 561-659-3000 1 wanv.jonesfoster.com The Town Manager is William Thrasher ( 276-5116; bthrasher@sulf-stream.org ; 100 Sea Rd., Gulf Stream, FL 33483 ). You can send your engagement letter to him. As we discussed, you have kindly agreed to reduce your hourly rate to $350.00. I spoke with John "Skip" Randolph and Joanne O'Connor, the Town attorneys with Jones Foster, who will be sending you a copy of the files on each of the lawsuits. I have not read them myself, but my understanding is that they are all essentially the same --allegations of delay or failure to produce public records or of unreasonable production cost. In order to keep your fees down, I suggest you do not undertake an in-depth study of each case, but just familiarize yourself generally with them. I believe each case is pretty much the same anyway. In case you didn't know, there are two independent Plaintiffs bringing these actions. Marty O'Boyle is one and Christopher O'Hare is the other. Both men are (were?) represented by The O'Boyle Law Firm so they work together on most of these matters, although in several of the cases, I believe one or the other Plaintiff is already acting pro se.O'Boyle is the leader of the pair, however, so we want to focus our attention on him first. If you have time next week, and even before you receive the files from Jones Foster, I believe we should have a strategy session involving Jones Foster, you and myself. Skip and Joanne have done quite a bit of work on these cases so they are already working on a strategy involving sanctions and consolidation. You may or may not agree, or may have input on how we can fast-track the best case into court. Your first suggestion, as I recall, was to pick the weakest case and conduct an extensive deposition of O'Boyle, which would set the groundwork for possible sanctions in any other matter. Afterward, you would advance the case to trial. I suspect O'Boyle will try to use discovery efforts to delay the case but we'll just have to deal with that as it occurs. The goal is to obtain a dismissal or verdict in one of his cases, and thereby set up an abuse of process or malicious prosecution case. In addition, there may be opportunities for sanctions even prior to a verdict. I am attaching a letter waiving any conflict of interest I may have in connection with your representation of the Town.
