Update on Financial Matters and High Court Proceedings
A mutual consent agreement to extend witness statements submissions until May 21, 2024 was requested by the Shapiro’s, and agreed by all parties.
Due to this delay on 23 April 2024, Justice Harris wrote to the parties adjourning the CMC “to a date to be fixed not before 30/6/2024 with 30 minutes reserved”. At this stage, no date has been fixed by the Court yet;
On 30 April 2024, the Plaintiff filed a Mediation Certificate indicating to the Court that he wishes to attempt mediation to resolve all disputes between the parties. The Defendants including myself are open to Mediation, and expressed the same.
It is yet to be determined if any Good Faith Global Mediation will move forward or not; We are in correspondence about potential ‘Good Faith’ Global mediation, and this matter is still pending with nothing to report.
Items 1, and Items 2 remain the current status of the High Court proceedings, which are estimated to take some two years or more years away from now to determine any outcome one way or the other whether the disputed shares, the Petitioners ‘Step 1’ shares or any of the other 50+ shareholders shares granted on the same day in August 2019, exist or not at all.
The fact that the Mother’s S.17 case is hopeless is another matter to consider after the High Court litigations, Judgements, or any appeals are settled in some two or more years.
All other matters to be factored in such as the going concern company being worth nothing as well as the disputed shares by then.
I provide copies of the requested High Court REPLY to Amended Defenses as requested in Exhibit 1
I note the company is now on the brink of wind up with the company’s Banks Statements, recent Audited Reports for 2021 and 2022, which were ratified and shareholder approved in the most recent AGM provided in Father’s FIFTH Financial Form E which was sworn and submitted to the HK Family Court on XYZ DAte, along with the FIFTH Lowering Interim Maintenance Applicztions on XXX date as served on the Mother in April XX 2024. Please see Exhbit 2.
I do not understand why the Financial Truth is being opposed to be filed by the Mother. I should not have to struggle to proactively provide the Financial TRUTH to the Mother and her HKLA team who have all this TRUTHFUL and SWORN Financial Information in their possession, and cannot understand how the Mother or HKLA Barrister have the power to blocks the HK Family Court to receive truthful financial inforamation while the proviced FALSE sworn Financial and even Child abuse evidence to mislead the HK Family Court to harm children.
I ask for the HK FAmily Court’s help to stop the falsified financial and other information to be used to potential make false finding of facts based on willfully dishonest sworn and unsworn FALSE financial information and testimony as is also the case with the child abuse and child assaults being covered up and exposed.
For the avoidance of any doubts, the Mother and her HKLA funded team should have NO objection to ADD truthful financial evidence I am providing. Unless, they want to rely on their prior SWORN false financial information to willfully mislead the HK Family Court into false finding of facts and Judgements.
Affirmation Regarding Financial Matters and High Court Proceedings
I, [Barrister's Name], hereby affirm the following update on financial matters and high court proceedings pertaining to the Shapiro case in the Hong Kong Family Court.
A mutual consent agreement was reached among all parties involved to extend the deadline for witness statement submissions until May 21, 2024. This request was made by the Shapiro’s and was agreed upon by all parties.
In light of the extension, Justice Harris adjourned the CMC to a date that is yet to be fixed, with a reservation of 30 minutes. As of now, the Court has not set a specific date for the adjourned CMC.
On April 30, 2024, the Plaintiff filed a Mediation Certificate indicating a desire to pursue mediation to resolve all disputes between the parties. The Defendants, including myself, have expressed openness to mediation as well. Whether or not Good Faith Global Mediation will proceed is still to be determined as discussions are ongoing.
The current status of the High Court proceedings remains unchanged, with an estimated timeline of two or more years before any outcome can be determined regarding the disputed shares and other related matters.
I have provided the requested High Court REPLY to Amended Defenses as per Exhibit 1. Additionally, I have submitted the FIFTH Financial Form E along with relevant documents in the interest of transparency and compliance.
I seek the assistance of the Hong Kong Family Court in preventing the use of falsified financial information and other misleading evidence in this case. It is imperative that truthful and accurate financial information be considered for a fair and just resolution.
I urge the Court to ensure that all parties involved adhere to the principles of honesty and integrity in the presentation of evidence. The interests of justice and the welfare of the children involved should be paramount in all proceedings.
I trust that the Hong Kong Family Court will uphold the rule of law and ensure a just outcome in this matter.
Signed,
[Barrister's Name]
