SWEETAPPLE: Q. Mr. O'Hare. A. Yes, Bob. Q. I'm now taking your deposition in your personal capacity, not in your capacity as a corporate representative. The same instructions I gave you earlier applies. Is that fair, since it was only within an hour and a half I gave you the instructions? You do remember them, right? A. I remember that. Q. Okay. Good. You provided some documents in your supplemental response dated January 30, 2014, with regard to your motion to disqualify me from representing the Town of Gulf Stream. The first document I'm going to show you is marked as Exhibit A and purports to be a transfer and a deposit slip. Do you recognize Exhibit A?

Okay. And when did you locate that? A. Just prior to producing it for you. Q. Okay. And what -- what box or file did you find that in? A. It was just a loose paper. Q. Loose paper where? A. Unidentified cardboard box. Q. Just a cardboard box. From what year? A. From eight months prior. Approximately eight months prior. Q. From eight months prior? A. To when I found it. Q. I'm saying, was there any date or any identification on the box?

You know, let me save you the trouble of trying to go through all this. I had to empty out my office in a rush to make room for another tenant. Things were pushed -- dumped into boxes with the intention of going through them later. Boxes were put into random pallets, stored on pallet racks. No identification on the boxes, just that they happened to come from my office. That's where this came from. Q. So it was just in an empty box? A. No, not an empty box. Q. In a box full of random things? A. Notes, business cards, trade show brochures, all the accoutrements of -- Q. Undated? Undated. A. The box had no date on it. Q. Okay. And did that -- was that Exhibit A in any file? A. No. It was in a box. Q. Okay. Did it have anything in it that had a date, anything that would help you identify when that document is from? A. No. There were -- there were other documents in the box from the bottom of my desk drawers. Some of Debra Duran & Associates Phone 561.313.8000 Fax 561.835.8586 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 Debra Duran & Associates Phone 561.313.8000 Fax 561.835.8586 Page 7 them might have had dates. I can't testify to that. Q. So you located this how long ago? A. Just prior to turning it over to you. Q. Okay. And what is it? A. It looks like two sides of a deposit slip. Q. And on whose account? A. Shelley Childers, Christopher O'Hare, 22 Harbour Drive South, Ocean Ridge. Q. So is that your account? A. This would have been my account, yes. Q. And when do you believe that was written? A. I believe this was written in 1998. Q. Okay. And all of the handwriting on that check or on those -- on those documents, whose handwriting is that? A. This is mine. Q. Okay. All the handwriting is yours? A. On this document, that's my handwriting. Q. Okay. And did you have this -- did you have an account at First Bank of Florida in 1998? A. That is a deposit slip that would have been pulled out of the deposit book, on the account that Shelly, my wife, and I maintain. Q. So did you go -- is -- were both of these documents found in the box? Debra Duran & Associates Phone 561.313.8000 Fax 561.835.8586 1 2 3 M 5 6 7 Em 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 Page 8 A. That's a single document, two - sided. That was found in the box. Q. Just this, and this is both sides? A. Both sides, yes. Q. Okay. So was this -- is this -- this says "profit distribution from Pineapple Grove Design to cover Sweetapple payment and miscellaneous." And that writing was on -- you have the original of this document? A. Yes. Q. Okay. And that writing was on it when you found it? A. Yes. Q. Okay. And the back -- the back side shows a deposit of $12,000. Was it -- is this a deposit slip that was actually deposited? A. No. That shows a crossed -out notation on the back and a correction on the front. And I believe from when I saw that, I remembered that I was going to make a deposit, but responding to the admonitions of my wife, who handled the books at the time, was told not to. Instead, we should make a transfer of -- whatever that language is. May I examine the document? Q. (Handing document.) MR. HANNA: Did you mark that? Debra Duran & Associates Phone 561.313.8000 Fax 561.835.8586 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 Page 9 BY MR. SWEETAPPLE: Q. I'm going to mark this as Exhibit A to your deposition. A. Yes. I was prepared to write a check from Pineapple Grove Designs, which is abbreviated as PGD, for $12,000. Instead, Shelley said transfer it from profit distribution, meaning we'll take it out as a payment to me, and pay taxes on it as if it was salary, and -- to cover Sweetapple payment and miscellaneous. I suppose there were other bills at the time. Q. So the first -- it says "deposit ticket." There is money deposited. Okay. And you say that the deposit ticket was actually deposited with the bank? A. No. Q. Did you ever -- this deposit slip that says "Shelley, please transfer profit distribution from Pineapple Grove Designs to cover Sweetapple payment and miscellaneous." And then it says "PGD 12,000." So nothing was ever done with this? It was not ever -- this -- this was never deposited, right? A. My intention was to deposit it. My wife corrected me, as she's done most often, said don't do it that way; it's got to be a profit distribution. We can't just write business checks for personal attorneys. Q. So the answer to my question is, this document Debra Duran & Associates Phone 561.313.8000 Fax 561.835.8586 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 Page 10 here that you've identified as Exhibit A was never deposited with a bank, right? A. It's just a note. Q. Okay. My question -- my statement is, this is a deposit slip; it was never deposited with a bank? A. Right. Correct. Q. So you have the original still? A. My original what? Q. The original of this document. You have it? A. Yes, I have it. Q. So if I noticed you to produce it at a trial or hearing, you will have the original of this? A. Yes. Q. Is it written in pen or pencil? A. May I examine that? Q. Do you recall from having seen the original recently? A. This looks like pencil to me. Q. Do you recall having seen it -- A. I think I recall it being pencil. Q. Okay. And who -- and this is your handwriting? A. Yes. Q. And you're saying that the second -- the bottom part of Exhibit A is the other side of this Debra Duran & Associates Phone 561.313.8000 Fax 561.835.8586 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 Page I I deposit slip, and the 12,000 was crossed out? A. That's correct, Bob. Q. Okay. And you believe that this account, this First Bank of Florida account, 267085619 is the routing number, and the account No. 0505017835 existed in 1998? In other words, you're -- you're sure that this deposit slip is from 1998? A. Yes. Q. And do you still bank with this bank? A. That says "First Bank of Florida," which was bought by Wachovia, which was bought by Wells Fargo. And, yes, we still have that very same account. The numbers may have changed, but, yeah, they're still our bank. Q. And it's your testimony that I was paid -- my firm or me was paid in 1998 from this account, right, this personal account? A. No. Q. What account was I paid from? A. It was transferred from PGD as a profit distribution. I don't know what account it might have gone in or whether it was made out to you directly and accredited as a personal distribution on the books. I don't know. Q. Have you found any -- other than handwriting Debra Duran & Associates Phone 561.313.8000 Fax 561.835.8586 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 Page 12 on one of your deposit slips with my name on it, have you found any bank record, such as a canceled check, a wire transfer, or any record that shows you ever paid me or my firm $1? A. Believe me, we looked. We looked, and we looked. Wachovia just does not have it. Q. Would the answer to that question, Mr. O'Hare, be simply no? A. I'm sorry, to what question? MR. SWEETAPPLE: Would you read the question back to the witness, please. (A portion of the record was read by the reporter.) THE WITNESS: The answer is we looked and we looked. We cannot find it. Wells Fargo, which used to be Wachovia, which used to be that bank, says they do not have it. I tried. I do not -- I cannot find any record. BY MR. SWEETAPPLE: Q. Have you found any retainer agreement that I have ever signed with you, any of your family members, or any entity that you have an interest in -- A. No. Q. -- ever? Have you found any letter that I have written that I've ever signed my name to? Debra Duran & Associates Phone 561.313.8000 Fax 561.835.8586 Page 13 1 1 A. No. 2 Q. Have you found any -- I'm a trial lawyer. You 3 know that, right? 4 A. I'm getting that impression. 5 Q. Okay. When you look in the public records for 6 Palm Beach County, you will find hundreds of lawsuits 7 that me and my firm have been involved in over the last 8 35 years. Same thing is true for Broward County, Dade 9 County, to a lesser extent Okeechobee, Martin County, 10 and various jurisdictions throughout the country. 11 Have you found one legal pleading, one legal 12 document in any court anywhere that I have ever signed 13 on behalf of you or any family member or any entity in 14 which you have an interest? 15 A. I haven't looked. 16 MR. HANNA: Object to form. 17 THE WITNESS: I haven't looked. 18 BY MR. SWEETAPPLE: 19 Q. Okay. 20 A. But I don't believe I've ever seen anything 21 like that. 22 Q. Well, you did testify that you thought I 23 represented you in a lawsuit? 24 A. Yes. 25 Q. But you've never -- you didn't go look to see Debra Duran & Associates Phone 561.313.8000 Fax 561.835.8586 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 OM Page 14 if you could find any pleading that had my name on it and your name on it? A. Well, define "lawsuit," sir. Q. Well, have you -- have you looked to see if my name appeared on any pleading or any paper that I had signed on your behalf? A. I don't believe your representation ever extended to actually filing a claim against someone or defending against a claim. Q. Now, you have provided me with Exhibits B, C, and D, which were attached to your response -- strike that. Which were attached to your supplemental response. And I'm going to mark these as B, C, and D. You had them as B. I'm going to do them as B, C, and D for the depo, defendants. Can you tell me what these pictures are? (Defendant's Exhibit Nos. B, C, D were marked for identification.) THE WITNESS: B, C, and D are all pictures that I took of tapes -- taped testimony that I came across in one of the boxes, found similar to the other boxes, that had a note to Robert Sweetapple. They're all pictures of the same note but in different positions.

What do you mean "in different positions "? A. Well, I mean, here the note is folded in No. B. In No. C, the note is open on one side. In No. D, the note is open with the reverse side showing. Q. Why is that? A. I was trying to produce the production of evidence that you requested without you having to physically have the tapes. I figured you would get those later. But that's why I took the pictures. Q. So how many stickums were there? A. How many what? Q. How many stickums? Those are stickums. A. It's a single stickum. A single Post -it. Q. Okay. And how many tapes were there? A. I guess -- I'm sorry, eight. I'm counting eight. Q. So pass me those back. So you're saying you recently found in a box, tapes, and attached to the tapes was "to Robert Sweetapple "? A.

ROEDER: I'm trying to clarify. MR. SWEETAPPLE: Well, that's -- that's not appropriate. MR. ROEDER: Do it later. BY MR. SWEETAPPLE: Q.

Have you gone back and tried to get copies of those? A. No. Q. Okay. But you did go back, and you -- you asked for any records from Ocean Ridge from 1998 that involved you, right?

And -- and the only documents that they had in Ocean Ridge were the documents that were attached to Mr. Jonas' deposition transcript, right? A.

I don't know if the town still has those or not. I don't have them. Q. That's not my question. A. Okay. Q. My question, it's a fact, isn't it, Mr. O'Hare, that your attorneys made a request on the town of Ocean Ridge, and the only documents that were produced by the town from 1998, pursuant to that request, were the memo, the letter to Mr. Nicoletti, the memo, and the settlement agreement regarding your code violation, correct? MR. HANNA: I'm going to object to the question. BY MR. SWEETAPPLE: Q. Are you aware what was -- what was provided by the city of -- or the town of Ocean Ridge to your public records request? A.

I -- I was told to get records to establish the claim that the town was guilty of violating my civil rights. I think it was called a 1983 action. I found records of permits granted for what I was denied before my denial and after my denial. I handed all those over to you. I can't recall what happened to them. Q. Are you sure you did that? A. I'm sure I did that. Q. Okay. And did you get them back? A. I just said I can't recall what happened to them. Q. Okay. Are you saying they -- that you gave them to me with the tapes? A.

Have you ever met with Mr. Chandler and Mr. Roeder? A. Yes. Q. Have you ever paid Mr. Chandler any money? MR. HANNA: I'm going to object. This is getting beyond the update deposition for purposes of disqualification. MR. SWEETAPPLE: How is that? MR. HANNA: It's getting into Joel Chandler and his relationship with Joel Chandler and payments to Joel Chandler. How does that have to do with the motion to disqualify? MR. SWEETAPPLE: Do you know what the standard is for a motion to disqualify? MR. HANNA: Yes, I do. MR. SWEETAPPLE: What is it? MR. HANNA: I'm not going to argue with you. I'm just telling you -- MR. SWEETAPPLE: Do you know what it is? Why don't you just put on the record what the legal standard is since you -- MR. HANNA: I'm not going to argue with you about -- Debra Duran & Associates Phone 561.313.8000 Fax 561.835.8586 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 iA 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 MR. SWEETAPPLE: The legal standard is you've alleged that it is my -- that I represented him in 1998 -- MR. HANNA: Right. MR. SWEETAPPLE: -- and that my representation is substantially related to the matters of my representation now. MR. HANNA: Right. MR. SWEETAPPLE: And I am attempting to take discovery regarding the matters concerning my representation now, to establish that the people, the events, the causes of action, the communications have absolutely nothing in the world to do with what occurred in Ocean Ridge, according to his testimony. So I'm permitted to go into this area as a matter of law. So I would appreciate if you allow me to continue my inquiry. Please read the question back. You're the one that put into issue whether or not my representation -- and now we have the lawsuit filed, and we can go through -- on the record -- we can go through the record. Now instead of speculating, as you were when you filed your motion to disqualify, we can actually look at the scope of my representation and see if it's Debra Duran & Associates Phone 561.313.8000 Fax 561.835.8586 Page 30 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 substantially related to what happened in 1998 or not, because that's what our trial is going to be about. MR. HANNA: And your trial also is about Edwin Jonas, when you said you had no recollection of ever meeting Mr. O'Hare. MR. SWEETAPPLE: I don't. MR. HANNA: And Edwin Jonas testified about your handling -- being a point person for the code enforcement hearing, at least for Mr. O'Hare, in MR. SWEETAPPLE: So let's go on -- let's go on with the testimony. MR. HANNA: Okay. I'm just telling you, getting into Joel Chandler, relationship and payment to Joel Chandler, has nothing to do with the motion to disqualify. MR. SWEETAPPLE: Yes, it does. Yes, it does, because this case involves paying people for -- paying people or getting consideration to file public records requests as part of a scam and a fraud, which has nothing to do with what -- MR. HANNA: This is updated deposition -- MR. ROEDER: You're going way broad. MR. HANNA: -- for the motion to disqualify.

SWEETAPPLE: That's right. MR. HANNA: You know what -- MR. SWEETAPPLE: Let me go on. MR. HANNA: Go ahead. BY MR. SWEETAPPLE: Q. Mr. O'Hare, when you filed the motion to disqualify, had I filed any pleadings in any case at the time you filed the motion to disqualify? A. You're asking me the same question over and over. Q. No. A. There's no pleadings I know -- I'm sorry, ask that question again. Q. When you filed -- A. I want to make sure I -- I understand. Q. Are you aware you filed a motion to disqualify in a case where I had never filed a pleading? MR. HANNA: I object to form. Confusing. BY MR. SWEETAPPLE: Q. Are you aware that you filed motions to disqualify me in cases where I had never even appeared? A. You're saying you never made a notice of appearance in the cases I filed to disqualify you?

I'm sorry, ten that you didn't or did? Q. Ten that I didn't. Are you aware that based on an alleged conversation Mr. Hanna says he had with me, that he filed motions to disqualify me in cases where I hadn't even appeared? MR. HANNA: Object to form. Mischaracterization. There was an e -mail from Mr. Sweetapple that said that I'm going to be filing appearances in all cases by Mr. O'Hare. BY MR. SWEETAPPLE: Q. So are you aware that based on an e -mail, Mr. Hanna on your behalf filed motions to disqualify me in cases where I had not even appeared? Are you aware of that? Yes or no? A. You're telling me lawyers are going to lie to each other about this? Q. Yes or no? Are you aware as the client that your lawyer filed motions to disqualify me in a number of cases where I had not even appeared? A. I don't have sufficient information to make an answer to that. Q. So you don't know the answer? A. My answer is, you were intending to appear, and we filed. Now, it's funny that on the one hand Debra Duran & Associates Phone 561.313.8000 Fax 561.835.8586 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 Page 34 you're -- you're giving me a hard time because I filed it. The other hand you're giving me a hard time because I waited too long to file it. This is kind of funny, Bob, really. Q. Well, that's because you don't understand the point I'm making, clearly, from the grin on your face and the remark -- A. I'm not a lawyer, so... Q. -- the remark you just made. So in the -- in the -- MR. ROEDER: Please ask the question. BY MR. SWEETAPPLE: Q. Okay. In order to disqualify a lawyer, you have to show that the current representation is substantially related to the prior representation. Are you aware of that? A. Yes. Q. When you filed your motion to disqualify me in cases where I hadn't even appeared, what did you understand was going to be the scope of my representation? MR. HANNA: I'm going to object to form. THE WITNESS: I understood you were joining the town to file a RICO complaint against me to represent them. As well, with the records that Debra Duran & Associates Phone 561.313.8000 Fax 561.835.8586 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 Page 35 I've seen from Jones Foster, et cetera, that you had every intention of advocating for the town against me. BY MR. SWEETAPPLE: Q. Okay. Against you on what -- what claims? A. I think anything you could think up. Q. Okay. Well, what claims -- when you filed the motion -- when you filed the motion to disqualify me in this case, had there been any pleadings filed by me? Had I filed any pleadings against you? A. I don't know that. Q. Okay. Are you aware that I had just filed a notice of appearance and had not filed any pleadings against you when you moved to disqualify me on this case that we're here on now? A. I don't have enough information to answer that; so the answer is, no, I wasn't aware. Q. So when -- when I appeared in this case, what did you understand that my representation was going to relate to? A. Public records, RICO action, trespass on public property. Just about everything the town and I are litigating. Q. And so you -- you really were speculating as to what the scope of my representation was going to be Debra Duran & Associates Phone 561.313.8000 Fax 561.835.8586 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 r'l 20 21 22 23 24 25 Page 36 when you filed your motion to disqualify, right? MR. HANNA: Object to form. THE WITNESS: I was relying on information given to my attorneys, who I believe to be honest. BY MR. SWEETAPPLE: Q. Okay. And what exactly did your attorneys tell you that you relied on that had you assert in a. pleading that my current representation was going to be substantially related to the prior representation, because that would not be privileged? That -- MR. ROEDER: Yes, it is. MR. HANNA: I'm going to object. Instruct the witness not to answer. It calls for attorney - client communication. BY MR. SWEETAPPLE: Q. Okay. When you communicated -- when you authorized Mr. Hanna to file a motion that the representation was substantially related, did you communicate to him what you believed my representation was going to be? MR. HANNA: I'm going to object and instruct -- BY MR. SWEETAPPLE: Q. Without going into what you said, did you -- did you -- strike that.

MR. HANNA: I'm going to instruct the witness not to answer the question. MR. SWEETAPPLE: I was just asking if he had any knowledge. MR. HANNA: I'm asserting the privilege, so you can move on to another question. MR. SWEETAPPLE: Okay. Go ahead and certify all these. Make a certificate for me. BY MR. SWEETAPPLE: Q. Did you understand that my representation would have to do with allegations that you and your coconspirators and agents, including Mr. Roeder, had filed hundreds and hundreds of serial public records requests against the Town of Gulf Stream? MR. ROEDER: Object to form. MR. HANNA: Object to form. THE WITNESS: I don't have coconspirators, sir. BY MR. SWEETAPPLE: Q. Okay. Are you -- are you currently represented by Jonathan O'Boyle? A.

In the case where you say I represented you, you say you paid me fees, right? A. Yes. Q. With regard to this case, have you paid any lawyers any fees? A. Oh, boy, have I. Q. Okay. What lawyers have you paid fees to? MR. ROEDER: Objection. MR. HANNA: I'm going to object and instruct the witness not to answer. MR. SWEETAPPLE: Why is that? MR. HANNA: Attorney - client privilege.

HANNA: Well, I'm not going to argue -- MR. SWEETAPPLE: Let me put on the record -- MR. HANNA: I'm not going to argue with you, and there's no need to put it on the record. I made the objection, instructed the witness not to respond. You make the arguments in front of the judge. No speaking objections. You -asked your question; I asserted a privilege. MR. SWEETAPPLE: And I'm going to put on the record and proffer to you, because I've been involved in this issue for many times and many years, and you have to -- as a former US attorney, the identity of the client, the payment of fees is not a communication under federal or Florida law. That is not covered by the attorney - client privilege. So I'm going to ask -- MR. ROEDER: Then, Counsel, why did you -- why did you not answer the question during your deposition? MR. SWEETAPPLE: Mr. Roeder, you're not even -- you're not even counsel for this deposition. MR. HANNA: We're not arguing the point. MR. SWEETAPPLE: Right.

In this -- okay. Were you aware that part of the scope of my representation would be to ascertain your relationship with the O'Boyle Law Firm?

Your -- the scope of your relationship with the O'Boyle Law Firm, the scope of your relationship with Mr. Chandler, the scope of your -- your relationship with Martin O'Boyle.

Did you ever use her name with regard to the requests? A. I used her name to create a Gmail account. Q. Okay. And you made the requests in the Gmail account name -- A. Yes. Q. -- in that account? A. Yes. Q. Was that your account or her account? A. I created the account. It would be my account. I have the password. No one else had a password to it. Q. Okay. So it was your account, but you -- you opened it up in someone else's name? A. I used her name to create a Gmail -- I don't -- I don't remember the exact term that Gmail uses when you fill in the boxes, but it's basically a user name. Q. And why did you do that rather than making public records requests in your name? A. I was having trouble keeping track, and I tried different methods to isolate my requests so that the responses and the back and forth trying to finally get a record -- I didn't get mixed up with all the other Debra Duran & Associates Phone 561.313.8000 Fax 561.835.8586 IM 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 a 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 Page 58 requests. Q. And with regard to Janto D- j- a- j- a- p- u- t -r -a, did you open up a Gmail account for him? A. No. Q. Did you open up an account for him? A. It's identical to Irene's use of her name and -- as a user..name far the Gmail account. I asked Janto if I could use his name to open up an account because I wanted to ask for public records, and it's just a random name. It just occurred to me to use his name. He didn't have a problem with it. Q. And -- A. He gave me his permission to use his name. Q. Did you tell him how many public records requests you were going to make using his name? A. No. Q. Did you ask him permission to make public records requests using his name? A. No. Q. And why did you make public records requests using his name? A. It just came into my head when I was opening the account. Q. What about Rodrigo Tejera, is that an employee of yours?

A. It's just a name to create the account. Q. Did you open up an account under the name of Billy Trasher? A. I opened up a Gmail account under Billy Trasher. Q. And why did you open up an account in the name of Billy Trasher? A. Because Gmail prompts you to put something in there, and it's the first thing that came to my mind. Q. And does that relate to Bill Thrasher, the -- the town manager at Gulf Stream? Is that how you came up with the name? A. How do you mean "relate "? Q. Is that what gave you the idea to use the name Billy Trasher instead of Bill Thrasher? A. I don't know where the idea came from. It just came to me. Q. Okay. And did -- and you filed -- why did you file public records requests under the name of Billy Trasher? A. Again, trying to isolate the number of requests made by each Gmail account so I could keep better track of the correspondence back and forth.

However, that would not include the second request for the same record or clarification e -mails or things like that, but typically about ten. Q. So you were stopping at ten per name you used? A.

No. I have no knowledge of that. Q. Do you know an individual by Mr. Gray? Did you ever meet Mr. Gray? A.

BY MR. SWEETAPPLE: Q. Did Mr. Chandler ever tell you that he was going around the state personally making public records requests with wires on him to film state agencies? A. Wires on him? Q. Yes. With video and audio wires to record. A. I recall Mr. Chandler said he used a cell phone sometimes to memorialize his records requests. Q. And did he tell you he was going around to different -- did you know Mr. Chandler was going around to different state governments and public -- private contractors to make public records requests? A. Yes. I did know that. Q. And did you know that at the time that you were using his services as a paralegal? A. That was why I used his services, yes, because of his experience. Q. Were you aware that -- strike that. Were you aware that Jonathan O'Boyle was making public records requests from the Town of Gulf Stream at the same time and on the same days as you were? Ever? A.

And are you aware that Mr. Ring made record requests from the Town of Gulf Stream? A. No. I don't have any knowledge of that. Q. And have you ever paid the O'Boyle Law Firm any money? MR.

Yes. Q. How many times have you been to the O'Boyle Law Firm? A. Maybe two or three. Q. And when is the first time you went to the O'Boyle Law Firm? A. Within the last year, I would say. Q. Okay. 2014? A. I think so. Q. When it first opened up, it was in the offices of the Commerce Group, right? A. I don't know who owns the building, what other companies are in the building. I just showed up into a conference room like this one. Q. You were one of the first clients of the so- called O'Boyle Law Firm, right? MR. HANNA: Object to form.

I did not have any inkling about what CAFI is. BY MR. SWEETAPPLE: Q. And how many lawsuits did the O'Boyle Law Firm file for you against the Town of Gulf Stream? A. As opposed to Mr. Hanna, I can't tell you the exact number. Q. The first public records lawsuit you filed, was it with the O'Boyle Law Firm? A. You have me at a loss. I don't know. Q. What about the second one? A. I did not commit to memory. I have all these lawsuits and I would have to refer to them to tell you all the details of the suit. Q. What about the third lawsuit? A. I just answered that. Q. Do you know how many lawsuits you filed in a row with the O'Boyle Law Firm? How many public records requests you filed in a row with the O'Boyle Law Firm?

Do you know if the O'Boyle Law Firm filed suits for other plaintiffs for public records against Gulf Stream on the same day or within days of your lawsuits? A. I can't testify to the efficiency of their operation. Q. And at the time -- in 1998, you had no idea that you were going to be involved in filing hundreds and hundreds of public records requests against the Town of Gulf Stream, did you? A. In 1998, I had no idea what I would be doing now. Q. And in 1998, you had no idea who Mr. Chandler was, right? A. Right. Q. And you had no idea who Mr. O'Boyle was, right? A. Yes. Q. And you had no idea who Jonathan O'Boyle was? A. Yes. Q. And you had never sued any government for Debra Duran & Associates Phone 561.313.8000 Fax 561.835.8586 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 Page 98 public records. A. No, I have not. Q. So in 1998, when you say you were meeting with me, that was about a code violation in the Town of Ocean Ridge, right? A. No. Well, correct that. That's part of it. By the way, while we're on the subject of correcting, I made a statement earlier about a photo production. And I was confused. I think now, thinking about it, that actually was part of the first set of productions. There was no photo on the second set. Pardon me for that. Q. Thank you. And you don't know how many times Jonathan O'Boyle appeared pro hac vice for you. A. No. I'd have to refer back to the actual claims. Q. And do you have any written agreement with Jonathan O'Boyle that refreshes your recollection? MR. HANNA: Object to the form, and instruct the witness not to answer. MR. SWEETAPPLE: I just want to know if you have any writings that would refresh your recollection with Jonathan O'Boyle. MR. ROEDER: Object to form. MR.

You never had to sue the Town of Ocean Ridge for public records, right? A. No. They're very forthcoming. Q. So that never became an issue with them. A. That wasn't an issue at the time. Q. When is the first time that you ever had any issue regarding having to sue a town for public records, in your opinion or your view? A. That was the Town of Gulf Stream. Q. 2013? 2012? A. Whenever the first suit was. I can't give you the date. Q. Okay. What is the total number of public records requests that you've filed against the Town of Gulf Stream, either in your name or using other people's names or using other agents? MR. HANNA: Object to form. THE WITNESS: I never filed a request against the town. I just asked for a record. BY MR. SWEETAPPLE: Q. To the town. How many times have you filed a request to the town in your name or allegedly on behalf of someone with their authority?

I don't have -- I didn't commit to memory the number of requests. Q. Do you keep a log of the requests you make? A. When you say "log," could you be more specific? Q. Did you ever keep a running record of all the requests you've made? A. I have a copy of all the requests, all the responses, and all the records I've gotten. Q. In a file? A. Well, digital. Q. Digital. That's kept where? At Pineapple Grove? A. My G -mail accounts. And in the possession of my attorneys. Q. And have you ever made requests for documents with the Town of Gulf Stream and not picked them up? A. I've done my best to get them all. I've asked a number of times if there are any outstanding. I've been told no. I believe I have picked -- if not all of them up, then I'm not aware of the ones I haven't picked up. I tried to find out. Q. You're not aware that there are dozens of requests that you made that you never went to pick up, never made any effort to pick up? Debra Duran & Associates Phone 561.313.8000 Fax 561.835.8586 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 Page 101 A. I know in your RICO claim you're asserting records were to be picked up when actually, I believe, estimates were made for the record. But I'm not aware of records I haven't picked up. If there are records I haven't picked up, I certainly will pick them up. Q. Well, do you keep records of what you ask for so that you make sure you go pick them up, or do you just file the records requests to harass people? MR. ROEDER: Objection. MR. HANNA: Object to form. BY MR. SWEETAPPLE: Q. Do you keep records of all the records requests you made? A. I have copies of the requests I've made. That's one of the reasons I have multiple G -mail accounts to keep track of it all. Q. How does multiple accounts help you keep track of it all as opposed to one account? A. You have to understand -- this will come out later. But you have to understand, when I ask for a record and I'm told it doesn't exist, and I ask again and maybe it exists, and I ask again and I have to ask a different way, there could be multiple communications going back and forth, sometimes with forwarding, sometimes with attachments. It gets confusing. But the Debra Duran & Associates Phone 561.313.8000 Fax 561.835.8586 1 2 3 M 5 6 7 IN 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 Page 102 town, sometimes it's like pulling teeth to finally get the record. Q. So why does having all these different names, fake names and other people's names, help you to keep track of whether or not you've picked up records? MR. HANNA: Object to form and the characterization that they're fake names. E -mail addresses aren't required to be identified to the person so in their RICO case, it's noted how they just have a cursor over the e -mail address, and it appeared Christopher O'Hare, their big investigation, to try to find out who -- discover who was sending the e -mail. BY MR. SWEETAPPLE: Q. Okay. That's a speaking objection, but go ahead, Mr. O'Hare. A. Can you ask the question again? Q. How does multiple G -mail accounts help you keep track of whether or not you picked up all of your records you have requested? A. Well, it could very well be my fault and not G- mail's fault, but sometimes when you request a record -- or I'm sorry -- sometimes when you send an e -mail and there's a response and then you forward it to someone, it changes position in the account.

That was my rationale. Q. How many times have you failed to go pick up records that you've requested? A. I hope none. Q. How many have you; do you know? A. How many have I not picked up? Q. Yeah. How many times have you not picked up records after you've asked for them? A. If I had knowledge of any I hadn't picked up, I would be over there picking them up. I don't think there's any. But if the town is aware of some, I'll be over there tomorrow. Q. How do you decide what it is you're going to request? A. You're asking me a particular time period or -- Q. Yes. A. -- subject? Q. When you met with Mr. Chandler, did he discuss with you topics you could use to make requests? A. No. I never had that kind of discussion.

Did he ever discuss with you any ways to make requests so difficult or onerous that they can't be responded to? A. No. And I've made requests over and over trying to be as clear and surgically precise as possible. Q. And you have wanted -- every document you requested has been for some purpose. A. Absolutely. Q. Not just to harass the town or punish the town or abuse the town. A. I have no intention of harassing, punishing or abusing anybody. Q. Okay. Are you familiar with this Gulf Stream Patriot? A. I got that in the mail. Q. Did you -- have you ever seen it before you got it in the mail? A. I saw parts of this by G -mail. Q. Who did you see it from in G -mail? A. I saw it from Mr. O'Boyle. Q. Did Mr. O'Boyle send you a G -mail regarding this document? A. Yes. Q. Did he -- do you still have that G -mail? Debra Duran & Associates Phone 561.313.8000 Fax 561.835.8586 Page 105 1 A. Probably. 2 Q. And did he write -- did he -- what did the 3 G -mail have in it? 4 A. He sent me a digital version of this, an 5 earlier version, and asked me if I saw anything that was 6 factually incorrect about it. 7 Q. Was it complete just like this with everything 8 that is in it? I'm going to mark this as Exhibit -- 9 what number am I on? 10 COURT REPORTER: E. 11 MR. HANNA: Can I take a look at it?

Did you write any pieces to put into that? A. I had written an article previous to this about the town's fictitious open space policy; and he had taken that, and I'm not sure how he got it. And he had chopped it up and twisted the whole theme of it. And I complained to him about that, because he was making a different point than I was trying to make. In addition to that, I asked him to delete an article he had written I think about Officer Ginsberg. I don't quite remember. But I know there's something in here I asked him not to print, and he did take it out. But he didn't use my edits. So I can't be held responsible for this. Q. So you told him to edit it, and he didn't. A. Well, I suggested to him there was some grammatical issues, and I asked him to take out the article about some topic. Q. Did he take that article out? A. He did, but I don't remember what it was. Q. Did you write any of the text that is in this exhibit? A. That is in this exhibit? No. I'm sorry. I wrote the open space thing that Debra Duran & Associates Phone 561.313.8000 Fax 561.835.8586 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 Page 107 was then heavily edited by Mr. O'Boyle. Q. And did you write "Every Home Needs a Roof "? A. No. Q. So that was written by Mr. O'Boyle? A. Give me a moment to read it. Make sure I didn't write any part of that. What page is that on? Q. The last page. The back. A. I believe that -- well, I know that I had written something similar to this that's on my website, TownofGulfStream.com. And I think, from what I see here, that Marty must have taken that off my website, edited it, and regurgitated it on this. Q. Did you give him permission to do that? A. No. Q. When he showed you the draft, did you object to him putting that in? A. No. I figured it was public knowledge. The whole website is public information. Q. But it was your writing. You copied -- that's your copyright. A. And I reserve the right to enforce my copyright when I so chose. Q. And you chose not to with regard to this. You gave him permission. A. I didn't see any reason -- he didn't ask for Debra Duran & Associates Phone 561.313.8000 Fax 561.835.8586 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 Page 108 permission, and I didn't give him permission. Q. Wasn't the request that you edit it the request for your permission? A. I don't connect the two. Q. But you have e -mails back and forth regarding this document, right? A. Back and forth, maybe one or two e- mails. Q. Okay. Did you pay for any of this publication? A. Pay for it? No. I had nothing to do with it. Q. Did Mr. O'Boyle tell you he paid for it? A. I don't recall him saying he paid for it. I don't know who paid for it. Q. Did he tell you who, if anybody else, was involved in writing this? A. I'm sorry. Say again. Q. Did he tell you if anyone else had been involved in writing this? A. I don't remember that. I don't recall that. Q. Did he tell you he wrote it? A. That I -- yeah. I believe he wrote this. I believe I told me he wrote it, too. Q. He didn't tell he you hired somebody to write it? A.

Q. What's that? A. I mean, I like Marty, but this isn't very well written. Q. Well, he wrote -- he refers to you extensively through this piece, and you didn't object, right? A. Yeah. I know. It's flattering, and I'm glad he's, you know, broadcasting the message I was trying to use my website for. But I didn't write this. He wrote it, I'm assuming from the style, but I have no knowledge of anybody else being involved. Q. It says "As these litigations begin to be tried, the town will have to pay its legal costs and costs incurred by Mr. O'Boyle and Mr. O'Hare." You see that? A. I'm sorry. Could you tell me where? Q. Right here. The middle. "Since, after all, even Mayor Morgan (a lawyer) stated on the record that Mr. O'Boyle and Mr. O'Hare had meritorious claims." So is it your goal with this litigation you filed to get legal fees? A. Can you show me the paragraph? Point to it. Q. Sure. Right here. You see where it says "as these" right here. A. May I read from your highlighted? Debra Duran & Associates Phone 561.313.8000 Fax 561.835.8586 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 Page I10 Q. I'll highlight for you what I'm reading. I'll do a little bracket. A. Thank you. Q. It says, "As these litigations begin to be tried, the town will have to pay its legal costs and costs incurred by Mr. O'Boyle and Mr. O'Hare since, after all, even Mayor Morgan (a lawyer) stated on the record that Mr. O'Boyle and Mr. O'Hare had meritorious claims." So did you approve Mr. O'Boyle saying that the town is going to have to pay your legal fees? A. No. And I think I've heard this before at public comment parts of public meetings. This isn't the first time I've heard this. But, no, I did not say put this in. I did not say take it out. I did not say I'm all for this. I had nothing to do with this. Q. Did you file lawsuits against the town to get attorney's fees and costs? A. No. I filed lawsuits to -- I did not file them just for getting attorney's fees and costs. Q. But that was one of the factors in your filing, right? A. God, I hope I get my money back. Q. Okay. And you realize that in order to obtain attorney's fees in a public records request, there has Debra Duran & Associates Phone 561.313.8000 Fax 561.835.8586 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 Page I I 1 to be an unlawful refusal to provide the records. A. That's why I would cite -- Q. When I say there has to be an unlawful refusal to allow you to inspect, physically inspect and copy the records. That is what the statute says. A. Yes. That is my understanding. Q. And you realize that while a town has to -- the town has to reasonably -- on reasonable notice and make reasonable efforts to allow you to personally inspect and copy a record -- A. Right. Q. -- in the presence of the clerk or the record custodian, correct? A. I believe I've read that in the statute. Q. How many times have you actually physically gone to the clerk's office and made a request to inspect and copy a document? A. I could think of maybe a dozen times. Q. Has the clerk ever said to you, I refuse to give you that record? A. No. Q. And you realize the statute says a town or a government may -- A. I'm sorry. May I clarify that? Q. Yeah.

She's never personally, physically to my face said, no, you can't have that record. Q. Has anyone -- has the clerk in any of those 12 times ever told you that something is exempt, and you can't have it? A. In those 12 times? Q. Yes. A. I don't recall any exemptions. Q. Have you ever filed a lawsuit with regard to anytime where you went to the clerk's office and asked to inspect and copy a record where the clerk refused -- unlawfully refused to allow you to physically inspect and copy a record? A. I'm not recalling that. Q. Are you aware that Florida Statute Section 119 talks about the fact that a government or a state contractor may, if they chose, provide you with documents electronically? A. Yes. Q. Are you aware that this statute regarding attorney's fees does not echo the language in that subsection; rather, it echos the subsection 1(a), which says that you only get fees where there is an unlawful refusal to allow you to inspect and copy the records? A. You're asking me for a legal opinion? Debra Duran & Associates Phone 561.313.8000 Fax 561.835.8586 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 don't. Q. Okay. And have you ever -- has it ever occurred to you that it would not be reasonable to expect the Town of Gulf Stream to be able to respond to any public records request when they are inundated with almost 2,000 requests by you and other clients of the so- called O'Boyle Law Firm? MR. HANNA: Object to form. THE WITNESS: Sorry. What is your question? BY MR. SWEETAPPLE: Q. Has it occurred to you ever that it would not be reasonable to expect the clerk to be able to timely or competently respond to public records requests when the clerk of Gulf Stream is inundated with almost 2,000 requests by you and other clients of the O'Boyle Law Firm?

I'm asking you in your desire for legal fees, have you ever looked at whether or not there is even an entitlement for fees where you don't make a request to inspect and copy records to a clerk that has unlawfully refused? Have you ever looked at that issue? A. I didn't know that issue existed. I still don't. Q. Okay.

BY MR. SWEETAPPLE: Q. And it never occurred to you that your actions were in concert with other clients of the O'Boyle Law Firm? A. In concert? I'm sorry? Q. That the O'Boyle Law Firm clients were doing the same thing you were doing to Gulf Stream at the same time and on the same day you were doing it. MR. HANNA: Object to form. BY MR. SWEETAPPLE: Q. That never occurred to you? A. Well, I had knowledge of that. Q. You had knowledge of that. A. I have knowledge that Patsy Randolph, the Palm Beach Post; a lot of people had been asking for records in the same time period. Q. But you knew -- you knew from public meetings and otherwise that other clients of Gulf Stream -- other clients of the O'Boyle Law Firm were making public records requests at the same time you were making them on the Town of Gulf Stream. A. Bob, that information in itself is a public record. It's on the town's website.

Did you look at the town's website regularly to see who else was filing public records requests? A. I visited the town's website to search the public records, so I don't have to ask them. If it's there, there is no need to ask them. I also looked to see what the agenda items are going to be, what the minutes are from past agendas, who is going to be speaking, what issues are going to be voted on. Debra Duran & Associates Phone 561.313.8000 Fax 561.835.8586 Page 115 Q. So you knew that? A. I look at the town's website, and I see other people are making requests. Q.

I've seen that. Yes. Q. And you've made public records requests on days when you've looked at the log, and seen that various O'Boyle entities and clients have also made requests, right? A. I've looked at the log, and I've seen that lots of people make requests on the same day. Q. The lots of people that are making requests, sir, are you and other clients of the O'Boyle Law Firm and their alter egos. You're aware of that, right? MR. HANNA: Object to form. BY MR. SWEETAPPLE: Q. There are no "lots of people making requests" other than the O'Hare and O'Boyles and their alter egos; are you aware of that? A. I don't know who is behind those other G -mail accounts. MR.

Read my memo. You'll see what the standard is. My memo sets forth that you have to show that my representation in this case involving these facts, these people, and these issues, somehow will negatively impact something I accomplish -- MR.

HANNA: You're representing them in a RICO case and all the cases -- MR. SWEETAPPLE: Right. That's why I'm asking him about -- I'm asking him about every case that you're alleging that I'm representing him in.
