THE COURT: That takes us to 1554. Is that
an agreed matter?
MR. LEHRMAN: Good morning, your Honor. Seth
Lehrman appearing for LM, Mr. Edwards, and Farmer
Jaffe Weissing, saying it's an agreed matter at this
point.
THE COURT: Oh, surprise, surprise.
MR. SILVER: After receiving 131 pages of
documents on Friday, but that's what weekends are for.
Jim Silver of Conrad & Scherer on behalf of
Razorback funding and other victim creditors, and I
will let Mr. Lehrman announce the agreement.
MR. LEHRMAN: Thank you.
Your Honor, we've reached an agreement with
Mr. Silver's firm where the parties will stipulate to
stay enforcement of their firm's Rule 2004 Exam duces
tecum. We've agreed to produce documents requested by
their firm, with the express agreement that any
production or disclosure of documents pursuant to that
agreement does not constitute a waiver of any
privilege.
As well, Mr. Silver's firm has a agreed to
preserve the strict confidentiality of all documents,
materials, and information produced pursuant to this

agreement. Furthermore, we intend to lodge with the
Court a proposed form of order which would approve all
the material terms of the parties agreement.
MR. SILVER: And, if I may, your Honor, a
very important aspect of the agreement is that if we
seek to use the documents, we can go to Mr. Edwards
attorney, ask for consent. If that consent is
declined, then your Honor is the exclusive court to
determine issues regarding whether we're able to use
these document, whether or not there's any applicable
privilege, et cetera, so that's a very important part
of the agreement for us.
THE COURT: All right. Mr. Lehrman see to
the order.
MR. LEHRMAN: Thank you, your Honor.
