RESPONDENT
ORDER
CSCB Management Group, LLC's motion to approve the
proposed bond, NQ 178, is denied. For the reasons explained by the
Catar defendants, NQ 179, many uncertainties would attend the Trust's
acting as a surety for CSCB's obligation.
The bond is therefore
inadequate to ensure compliance with the protective order.
For its part, ARC Rehabilitation Center, P.A. has taken no step
known to the Court to comply with its bond obligation. CSCB has said
twice that it believes ARC will be posting a cash bond. No cash has
been deposited with the Clerk.
The Court has provided CSCB and ARC ample time to post a
bond. Neither has done so. CSCB and ARC must therefore appear
before the Court and show cause why they should not be held in
contempt of this Court's 16 March 2018 Order, Ng 137 at 10-12, and this
Court's 8 May 2018 Order, Ng 173. These entities must appear by and
through the personal appearance of two key individuals:
Chase
Steppig, the co-owner, co-founder, and registered agent of CSCB; and
Dr. Thomas F. Robinson, the officer, incorporator, and organizer of
ARC.
The entities must appear before the Court at 8:30 a.m. on
Wednesday, 13 June 2018 in Courtroom lA of the Richard S. Arnold
United States Courthouse, 600 West Capitol Avenue, Little Rock,
Arkansas, 72201.
The Court directs the U.S. Marshals Service to serve a copy of this
Order, the March 16th Order, Ng 137, and the May 8th Order, Ng 173,
on CSCB and ARC by serving Steppig and Dr. Robinson.
