Re: Kaplan, et al. v. Lebanese Canadian Bank, SAL, 08-CV-7253 (GBD)(KHP),
Lelchook, et al. v. Lebanese Canadian Bank, SAL, et al., 18-CV-12401 (GBD)(KHP)

Dear Judge Parker:
This firm represents Lebanese Canadian Bank (“LCB”), defendant in both of the abovereferenced actions, and Mohamad Hamdoun, one of the two individual defendants in Lelchook, et
al. v. Lebanese Canadian Bank, SAL, et al. We are in receipt of this Court’s orders of yesterday,
April 25, scheduling Initial Case Management Conferences in both of these actions for Tuesday,
May 17.
We are unavailable on May 17 due to longstanding international travel plans for multiple
members of our team, including those who would speak on behalf of LCB and Mr. Hamdoun at
the Initial Case Management Conferences. We therefore request that the Court adjourn both of
the Initial Case Management Conferences to any day the following week, the week of May 23.
We have conferred with counsel for Plaintiffs in both actions, as well as counsel for the
other individual defendant in Lelchook, Ahmad Safa, both of whom advised that they consent to
this request. We further note that Judge Daniels had previously scheduled conferences in both of
these actions for the afternoon of May 25, and we therefore can confirm that all parties are available
on that day (among others). Counsel for Mr. Safa has advised that, during the week of May 23,
May 24 and May 27 would be most convenient for them.
