can we discuss some of my concerns - first becuase Mr. Cronan became indigent due to the schme to defruad himself and the estate since * by his longterm accountant Mr. Grieco who destroyed the Classic display Inc to build Classic Group Inc with the three as partners James tirnan, Grieco and Cronan Mr Cronan was unable to pay the $* and subsquent $*,*. Had he no been a victm of embezzlment and bankrupct fraud he would not be in this situation trying to defend himself today. Additionally it is not fair that because the very entity created on criminal activity has the funds to pay for the judgement that they get it at a rate which was offered to me of $*,* and then the debtor gets billed to make up the difference. Its egrigious beahavoir by the trustee and others. Last Mr. Cronan and Ms Merritt seeks to claw back the purchase of the default judgement as its prohibited against engaging in monetatry transactions in criminay derived property.
Case Rating: *
It sounds like you have a complex case involving fraud, bankruptcy, and financial misconduct. Here’s some important information that might help you:
Points to Consider:
- Fraudulent Activities: Since there are allegations of fraud and bankruptcy fraud, detailed documentation and evidence will be crucial.
- Trustee Misconduct: Highlight any specific actions or inactions by the trustee that indicate misconduct or failure to comply with procedures.
- Legal Grounds: Mention relevant laws and statutes, such as those prohibiting transactions involving criminally derived property.
Would you like more detailed advice on how to structure your arguments or organize your documentation?
I gave the forensic accountants testimony of money laundering activities and the motions clearly supports trustee misconduct. Federal law prohibits engaging in monetary transactions involving property derived from specified unlawful activities, primarily through * U.S.C. § * (laundering of monetary instruments) and * U.S.C. § * (engaging in monetary transactions in property derived from specified unlawful activity.

do you think the forensic accountants testimony of excessive commingling of funds, sham transfers, tax evasion is a strong enough reason to reguuest to claw back the default judgment?
Case Rating: *
The forensic accountant's testimony provides substantial evidence of financial misconduct, including excessive commingling of funds, sham transfers, and tax evasion. These findings can be strong reasons to request to claw back the default judgment, especially if they demonstrate that the judgment was based on fraudulent activities.
