I have been reporting on a lawsuit filed by Noah Sidoff against SNPM Hotels LLC (Royal Inn). Sidoff has been pro per, former local attorney Michael Acosta has represented him and currently Mr. Patrik Griego is his attorney.
Acosta is ineligible to practice law. Details have been covered on the blog many times.
There was a dismissal hearing scheduled for 2/7 and e court lists, the case confirms the case dismissed. There is a motion hearing today on 2/10 for declatory relief re notice of attorney lien.
Sidoff's motion is about a lien filed by Michael Acosta which Sidoff saus is "improper and without legal effect" because Acosta had no written contract with him and Acosta "abandoned" him without justifiable cause during the case due to Acosta's suspension of law.
I just spoke with Mr. Griego after the hearing. Acosta was a no show. Judge Timothy Canning granted the motion to quash the lien.
A total of $137, 500.00 will be paid in two separate checks. The one to Janssen Malloy for $45,833.33. A second check to Janssen Malloy LLP Trust Account for Noah Sidoff for $91,666.67.
When court minutes are available which could be days; I will add them to this post.
Also, this has not been officially confirmed but according to two different people,Acosta is working on getting his law license reinstated. I just checked the State Bar website today and he is still not eligible to practice law.
I have court documents including state bar court documents about Acosta's suspension. Starting today, this exclusive content will be sent to advertisers, subscribers and donors first and upon request. I may add them to this post later, in days or weeks, I may not. I have been putting a lot of time and effort over 11 years, given people plenty of reminders and time for months to become subscribers or donors. Some chose to do so while others continue to want exclusive content which is time consuming for free. There are more benefits to being a subscriber, donor and advertiser. I have spoken with each of them individually and will be reaching out to them since I regularly communicate with those who value me and invest in me and respect my work.
