I am a pro se plaintiff in nyc civil and the defendant's attorney is aware that I have proof of him falsifying documents. Now he wants me to sign release forms of employment records when he has access to them by his client, he wants me to release general unemployment records when they never appealed an unemployment claim and wants me to release me disclose my medical records from NYS department of health.
