Thomas Sjoblom of Proskauer Rose is pointed to in both the SEC and FBI filings as the man behind the scenes, directing employees to lie to the SEC re the financial condition of the companies. Why was Proskauer and Sjoblom not directly named by the FBI and SEC to give the victims full disclosure of how the scheme was worked with the SEC former enforcement dude Sjoblom. Holt has sued Proskauer and Sjoblom but why has the receiver not seized their assets and firm, how can the firm continue to operate with liability insurance unless their carrier is unaware and Proskauer failed to notify them of their integral part and massive pending liabilities??? The FBI and SEC investigators should formally charge Proskauer and the victims should demand Proskauer to fully disclose their role in ripping off their money.
Proskauer is also involved in a TRILLION dollar patent theft lawsuit tied to a Whistleblower lawsuit in the NY Southern District under Judge Shira Scheindlin, the complaints related are08-4873-cv United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit Docket - Bernstein, et al. v Appellate Division First Department Disciplinary Committee, et al. - TRILLION DOLLAR LAWSUITCases @ US District Court - Southern District NY(07cv09599) Anderson v The State of New York, et al. - WHISTLEBLOWER LAWSUIT(07cv11196) Bernstein, et al. v Appellate Division First Department Disciplinary Committee, et al.(07cv11612) Esposito v The State of New York, et al., (08cv00526) Capogrosso v New York State Commission on Judicial Conduct, et al., (08cv02391) McKeown v The State of New York, et al., (08cv02852) Galison v The State of New York, et al., (08cv03305) Carvel v The State of New York, et al., and, (08cv4053) Gizella Weisshaus v The State of New York, et al.
