Town of Gu]Stream undertaken to pressure and intimidate defense counsel into not pursuing the issue of whether the O'Boyle Law Firm is a bona fide Interstate Law Film. 15. The issue of wbethor the O'Boyle Law Firm is a bona fide Interstate Law Firm is one that should be resolved according to law. It should not be the subject of harassment, intimidation and air raids by apposing counsel and their client 16. The misconduct is unprofessional, unethical and it constitutes an egregious example of litigation abuse. 'These tactics go beyond zealous =presentation and are designed to interfere with defense counsels' ethical obligation to their client. Such conduct undermine society,$ commitment to the resolution of disputes in courts of law, rather than in the streets or in the sky. 17. While citizeus enjoy the constitutional right of free speech, that protection is afforded to truthful speech, and while attorneys must zealously represent their client's interests, they are also officers of the court and are prohibited $ore disparaging witnesses and attorneys, or otherwise undermining the administration of justice. I8. It is well settled that the trial court has inherent jurisdiction to sanction parties and their counsel for litigation abuse. In this instance, plaintiff and his counsel have sought to cease any litigation or determination of the bona fides of the O'Boyle Law Firm by threatening and iostitutiog reprisals against counsel, their client and families. 19. While O'Boyle has the rightto continue to make a spectacle ofhimself, he, with the assistance of counsel, cannot impugn, malign and attempt to extort opposing parties or their counsel as part of the litigation process. 20. Abusive conduct is not a novelty for O' Boyle, who has left a historic trail of abusive litigation. 5 LAwOFF= oFSwa6rAFK2 BPJNbM &VAxr.A3.P.L. 20SY -3 STaesr, SocAiAr FU=A33432-3911 P.0031003 TOWN OF GULF STREAM PALM BEACH COUNTY, FLORIDA Delivered via e -mail September 11, 2014 CG Acquisition Company, Inc..
