BANKRUPTCY TRUSTEE'S SUPPLEMENTAL MOTION FOR PROTECTIVE ORDER¶
Herbert Stettin, Trustee of the Bankruptcy Estate of Rothstein Rosenfeld Adler, P.A. ("Trustee"), hereby files this Supplemental Motion for Protective Order pursuant to Rule 1.410 and 1.280(c), and states:¶
-
On November 10, 2009, the law firm of Rothstein Rosenfeldt Adler, P.A. ("RRA") was placed into involuntary bankruptcy, with a case pending in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Florida. On November 20, 2009, Herbert Stettin was appointed Trustee of RRA by the bankruptcy Court.
-
On April 16, 2010, Plaintiff caused a subpoena duces tecum ("Subpoena") to be served on the Trustee seeking documents from a lawsuit that is currently active and pending, being litigated by ex-RRA lawyers. A copy of the Subpoena is annexed hereto as Exhibit A.

CIRCUIT CIVIL ?¶
FILED¶
-
On May 19, 2010, the Trustee filed a Motion for Protective Order addressing issues primarily relating to costs associated with reviewing and compiling responsive documents to the subpoena. A copy of the Motion for Protective Order is annexed hereto as Exhibit B.
-
On June 18, 2010, counsel for L.M. filed a Motion for Protective Order. A copy of the Motion for Protective Order is annexed hereto as Exhibit C.
-
Within the bankruptcy court, the Trustee obtained a protective order dealing with its production of documents. The Trustee believes that the documents requ the Subpoena are subject to the attorney-client privilege and/or work product doedoctr are simply, actually the clients documents, even though the Trustee holds the atto -client privilege as to RRA.
-
However, since the former RRA attorneys nev ned their files from RRA when the firm was closed, the Trustee is effectively standing/in the shoes of the former RRA attorneys and clients, and thus the Subpoe iitumot request discovery from the Trustee to somehow circumvent the attorney-client
WHEREFORE, for the foe : ,ns, the Trustee requests this Court to grant this Motion and enter an Order o p o on prohibiting Plaintiff from obtaining the discovery sought in the Subpoena. zer (s, Respectfully submitted,¶

Pursuant to Rule 1.410, H "._ • trustee of the Bankruptcy Estate of Rothstein Rosenfeld Adler, P.A., files this Motion for Protective Order and states:¶
-
- On November 10, 2009, Rothstein Rosenfeldt Adler, P.A. ("RRA") was put into involuntary bankruptcy. That case is pending as In Re Estate of Rothstein Rosenfeld Adler, P.A., On November 20, 2009, Herbert Stettin was appointed Trustee of RRA. On November 30, 2009, an Order for Relief was entered by this Court.
-
- On April 16, 2010, Plaintiff caused a subpoena duces tecum to be served on the Trustee for production of documents. A copy of the subpoena duces tecum is annexed hereto as Exhibit A. 3 . The Trustee's responsibility under the involuntary bankruptcy filing is to winddown the business affairs of RRA. In that regard, the Trustee has three (3) people in his employ
¶
and has various professionals whose employment have been approved by the United States Bankruptcy County.¶
4 . Additionally, Scott Rothstein, who apparently managed the affairs of the law firm, has been criminally charged by the United States of America with various violations of federal law to which he has pled guilty. Associated with those charges, the United States of America seized the law firm's bank accounts. See Exhibit B annexed hereto.¶
-
Consequently, the very limited financial resources are *Irlevoted to trying to bring money into the estate as opposed to expending money on unrelated mud party litigation, such as this one.
-
While the Trustee has indicated in a differed[ t his willingness to try to produce to Mr. Epstein the documents he needs, in tar_ the Trustee's responsibility for '4. winding-up the affairs of the Estate is not • and because of the limited finances available 7 to the Trustee, he requests that the Court order ultall costs associated with responding to Mr. Epstein's subpoena duces tecum be borne by Mr. Epstein and that at least 50% of the estimated costs be paid to the Trustakuiri to any responsibility for undertaking a search for the documents.
-
TritatdE also requests that the time for responding to the subpoena duces tecum be o until such time as this Court or Mr. Epstein and the Trustee arc able to resolve the issues raised in this Motion for Protective Order.
Wherefore, for the foregoing reasons, the Trustee requests this Court to grant this motion.¶
