Ignition Switch Litigation Fraudsters Are Out On Bail Now SDNY Trial Set for Nov 8

By Matthew Russell Lee, Patreon
BBC - Guardian UK - Honduras - The Source

SDNY COURTHOUSE, Jan 29 – Alongside the multi-district ignition switch litigation, Christopher Hammatt, Susan Hammatt, Edwin Tanglao and Joseph Hoats allegedly created a fictitious $16.5 million settlement agreement to get litigation funding from Funding Companies.  

On June 12, 2020 U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York Judge Paul G. Gardephe held a proceeding. Inner City Press covered it. 

 The defendants are all out on bail. The US Attorney's Office says it will be seeking a superseding indictment, with more charges against Hoats.    Judge Gardephe said, I'm not going to set a trial date now, there's too much uncertain. No trails until the Fall, if then. But let's set a schedule for motions. Mr. Duboulay?   

 Donald D. Duboulay replied, The problem is traveling to meet my client. 

    Judge Gardephe proposed, Sixty days? 

   Duboulay said, I'd prefer more... 

Now on January 29, Judge Gardephe held another proceeding, and Inner City Press again covered it. The defense was saying even an August trial would be too early. And so Judge Gardephe has set the trial for November 8. Inner City Press will continue to cover this case.

The case is US v. Hammatt, 19-cr-67 (Gardephe). .
