Ridiculous Claims and Flat out Lies

#3UPDATE Employee

Mon, November 26, 2012

The above posting originated from a man who defaulted on a Note and Deed of Trust encumbering his home and was foreclosed upon.  Thereafter, proceedings were necessary to evict him.  The result is his bombast against the entity who foreclosed upon him and evicted him.  The individual who authored this mad rant has two Judgments outstanding against him, totaling in excess of $5 million and has been evicted several times.  He would be sued for libel for all of these accusations if it werent because as stated above, he already has many Judgments that are worthless because he doesnt have any assets.  To put plainly the above was
posted by a guy out for revenge because he was evicted.

The two listed lawsuits Re: Tardiff and Re: Friedman were both thrown out of the court as frivolous. 

i) Don and his sister are "criminals."

Neither Don nor his sister have ever been accused of any crime at any time.  Don is a contractor and has never been the subject of any complaints to the Contractor's State Licensing Board or the Better Business Bureau. 
His sister is a realtor and has never been the subject of any complaints to the California Department of Real Estate. 
Actually, Don loves to play paddle tennis, go roller blading, and take his three year old to the park, not
much criminal activity going on here folks!

ii)  Don's partner was an "old man" who died of a "broken heart."

The facts are that Leonard had suffered colon cancer, died of heart failure following a fall at the age of 85.  Don and Leonard remained good friends until the time of Leonard's death.  This was confirmed in sworn deposition testimony from Leonard's loan broker, banker, best friend, and others.  Its all public record folks.

iii)  Leonard was the widow's "only true love."

Concerning Leonard's widow, the rant states that  Leonard was his widow's "only love."  The facts are that Leonard married Laila when he was 80 years old and she was 46 years old.  She was a native of Thailand and did not speak English.  Leonard Rose did not speak Thai.  Leonard was Laila's third husband (and prior to marrying Leonard, she lived for several years with her former boss).  On Leonard's death, Laila and her family inherited over $70 million and shes bringing in over $250,000.00 per month in rents. 

iv) Leonards "widow filed a wrongful death lawsuit...."

Just plain lies!  Laila never filed a "wrongful death lawsuit" against Don.

v)  Leonard's widow was "deposed so many times holding her from early morning into the evening."

The facts are that Laila  was deposed on two separate occasions, with each deposition beginning at 10 a.m. and terminating before 5 p.m.  She never suffered from a heart attack or heart problems at any time.  Shes in perfect health.  Don's attorneys never served her personally with any papers at any time.

vi) Don "does not pay his employees and he treats people like slaves."

Don has never received a claim at any time in 25 years as a builder from any employees claiming to be mistreated.  Actually all of the people that work for him think hes great.  I have never heard anything bad said about him. 

vii)      "There are numerous lawsuits still pending against him" (Don).

There is one lawsuit against him brought by the author of the above rant.  This is also a frivolous lawsuit that will soon be thrown out too.

viii)  "He charges 50% interest on his loans."

The facts are, that Don has never made a loan where the interest rate exceeded the usury laws and he doesnt even do loans anymore.

ix)  Don's wife is a "well known scammer in Latin America."

This would be quite an accomplishment since Don's wife left her country legally at the age of 6 and has lived ever since in the United States where she is a mom, wife and vegan yoga instructor.

I know these facts to be true since I am an electrician who has worked with Don for over 25 years.  I
obtained certain information set forth above from Don's lawyers who confirmed these facts to me.

I have worked with Don for 25 years as an electrician. 

He is a contractor, a friend and an employer well liked by his employees.  Don has built over 65 custom estates and has never had a complaint against him that ever amounted to anything.   Thats a lot of exposure in a very litigious town.

VENGEFUL LIES

DON IS NEITHER DANGEROUS NOR FRAUDULENT, NOR DOES HE HAVE A CRIMINAL PAST.  THIS WHOLE THIS IS JUST A BUNCH OF MALICIOUS B.S.  IN FACT, WEVE ALL HAD A GOOD LAUGH.
