Re:

Dear Judge Cook: Following the hearing even date, I reviewed, as you requested, the circumstances surrounding the below belo w described described motions to compel to dete rmine they met the criteria under Administrative Administrative Order 8-2008-145, 14, 14, which provides in pertinent part: part: "When "Wh en a motion motio n to to compel complying with Florida Rule Civil Procedure 1.380(a)(2) alleges the absence a response or objection to discovery and there there has been no request for a n extension time to respond, the court, without a hearing, may enter an order requiring compliance wit h the original discovery request .... My review shows as follows: 1.
"Defendant's Motion for an Order compelling compelling Plaintiff to Respond to the Defendant's Request for Production and Attend Deposition"
Mr. Gillespie did not file file any response or objection to the request request for production. Thus, it meets the criteria, and an Order compelling a response is enclosed. As for the depositions that Mr. Gillespie failed failed to attend, attend, he did object. object. Thus, the motion to conlpel his attendance at the deposition does 'not 'not meet the criteria for entry an Order compelling attendance without a hearing. When this mornin g's hearings began, you advised that the purpose was for case mana gement only. only. After Mr. Gillespie asked to be excus ed due to his apparent illness, I advised that this moti on to compel was noticed for hearing hearing today. today. Given that Mr. Gillespie departed before this was clarified, clarified, Defendants would prefer to reschedule the hearing to avoid any claim that Mr. Gillespie was denied an opportunity to to be heard.

"Defendant 's Motion for an Order Compelling Plaintiff Plaint iff to Respond to the Defendant's Defendant' s Interrogatories" Interrogatories"
Mr. Gillespie's former counsel served unsigned, unsworn answers that were evasive or incomplete. Thus, this circumstance does not meet the criteria for entry an Order compelling discovery without a hearing
We request hearing time on o n the following: 1.
"Defendants' Motion for Proceedings Supplementary for Execution" (10 minutes requested);

Mr. Rodems and associates have a history
violence and defamation
against other participants in contentious litigation. This lawsuit is especially contentious, a former client cli ent suing his lawyer l awyer for fraud, fraud, breach
duty, etc., etc.
a. Mr. Rodems and his former law partners were named in a $5 million dollar
defamation lawsuit brought by attorney Arnold Levine, Buccaneers Limited Partnership
B
v.
Alpert, Barker
Rodems, PA, US District Court, Middle District
Florida, Tampa
Division, case 99-2354-CIV-T-23C. In retaliation, a Tampa Police Department report dated June 5, 2000, case number 00-42020, alleges Mr. Alpert committed battery, Florida Statutes §784.03, u pon attorney Arnold Levine Levine by throwing hot coffee on him. At the time Mr. Levine was a 68 year-old senior citizen. The report states: "The victim and defendant are both attorneys and were representing their clients in a mediation hearing. The victim alleges that the defendant began yelling, yelling, and intentionally threw the contents a 20 oz. cup
hot coffee which struck him in the chest staining his shirt. A request reques t for
prosecution was issued for battery." Mr. Rodems is listed as a witness on the police report. A copy
the police report is attached as Exhibit A.
b. Another example
Mr. Rodems' bizarre behavior against participants in
litigation are his defamatory comments about Eric Bischoff, a witnesses in WrestleReunion,

Another stunt used by Mr. Mr. Rodems against participants in co ntentiou
litigation is a sw orn affidavit used to falsely falsely accuse his opponent purpose

Sal Corrente of WrestleReunion had a lawsuit against Clear Channel/Live Nation because they reneged on a contra ct with him. The case case went before a jury and Mr. Corrente lost the case, which many feel was unjust. But Eric Bischoff made a statement on wrestlezone.com, which is below, that caused Sal's lawyer to send his statement: In my last post regarding the WrestleReunion/Live Nation lawSUit, I suggested that Bill Behrens and Eric Bischoff were were ex pert witnesse fo WrestleReunion. That was not the case case as they were actually witnesses for the Clear Channel/Live Nation side. just spoke with Eric Bischoff who said he agreed to be an expert
witness after reading and taking interest in the case, however he was not called to the stand.
"The case wa wrapped up quickly," Bischoff told Wrestlezone.com, "the j u r y d i d n ' t waste an time and came back w i t h w h a t felt wa the correct decision".
Eric was happy with the outcome, to say the least. "Rob Russen an
business
ba
n a m e , " he stated, "so I'
Sal Corente give the wrestling glad justice prevailed and th bottom feeders d i d n ' t wi
one".
Bischoff wanted to make sure that everyone knew his comments and opinions were solely his and did no reflect those of Clear Channel/Live Nation. In regards to the above statement, we have a statement from Mr. Corrente's lawyer: is od t h a t Eric Bischoff, whose well-documented incompetence caused th demise WCW, should have any c o m m e n t on th outcome of th WrestleReunion, LLC lawsuit. Th expert report Bischoff submitted in this case bordered on illiteracy, and Bischoff was no even called to testify by Clear Channel/Live Nation because Bischoff perjured himself in deposition in late-July 2009 before running ou and refusing to answer any more questions regarding his serious problems w i t h alcohol and sexual deviancy at th Gold Club while th head of WCW. To even si in the t h e m o s t distasteful things I've ever ha to do in 17 years f room an question hi was one practicing law. fact, we understand t h a t Bischoff was afraid to even come to Tampa and testify because he w o u l d have to answer questions under oath fo t h i r d t i m e about his embarrassing past. The sad state professional wrestling today is directly attributable to this snake oi salesman, th back truck, before he filed whose previous career highlights include selling m e a t ut bankruptcy and ha his car repossessed. Today, a f t e r running WCW into the ground, Bischoff peddles schlock like "Girls Gone Wild" an reality shows featuring B-Iisters.
Sal Corrente, on the other hand, has always been an honorable man, and he delivered on every
promise and paid every wrestler while staging the three WrestleReunlon events. Unlike the cowardly Bischoff, Mr. Corrente t o o k t h e stand In this case. Although his company di n o t prevail, Sal Corrente proved t h a t he was man enough to f i g h t to th finish -- something Bischoff could never understand."

Dear Mr. Gillespie: have and thank you for your letter even date, transmitted by facsimile. Regardless your accusations that I did not call you, I made multiple telephone calls, some in the presence my start: to coordinate hearings on June 9 and July 12, 2010, and dialed the same telephone number that I have successfully successfully used to call you in the past. What is most troubling about your letter is that you claim a hearing transcript shows that am prohibited from calling you, but you did not include the entirety the transcript excerpt. Here is the pertinent language you omitted:
THE COURT: And as my dear father always say says, s, discretion being the better bet ter part valor, would request that you not engage in any telephonic communication with Mr. Gillespie between now and the next hearing. MR. RODEMS: will not, Your Honor. No phone messages, no direct calls. I'll conduct all communications with Mr. Gillespie in writing.

Although I will not cancel it based on your claim to not be available, I will renew my offer made regarding the motions to compel when they were scheduled for June 9: If you agree to provide the discovery discovery within ten days and attend the deposition, depositi on, then will cancel cancel the hearing on the motions to compel compel (but not the Case Case Management Management Conference). The incentive incent ive for you to consider that may be the prospect of being held liable for my clients' attorneys' fees and costs, under Rule 1.380(a)(4). I look forward to hearing from you.

Dear Mr. Rodems:
This This is in response to the las paragr paragraph aph you letter letter June 11 2010 concernin concernin discovery discovery and Rule 1.380(a)(4 1.380(a)(4). ). This is my good faith effort to provide th e discovery without court action and/or response justifying not providing the discovery. discovery. As you know, know, much your discover discovery y to me is outstan outstanding ding,, some it dating to 2006. Currently Currently the following motions to compel your discovery discovery are pending: 1.
December 14,2006, Plaintiff's Motion to Compel Defendants' Discovery
2. February 1, 2007, Plaintiff's Second Motion to Compel Defendant s' Discovery 3. March 30,2010, Plaintiff's Third Motion to Compel Discovery receive your outstanding discovery? Mr. Rodems, wh en can I exp ect to receive Your June 11, 2010 letter state "I made sincere efforts efforts to coordinate the July 12, 2010 hearing date, but you have no t reciprocated. reciprocated."" This is a false false statement. Yo u did n ot make sincere sincere efforts to coordinate th e July 12, 2010 hearing date with me. Instead you placed calls calls to a number that you k new or should have known was no longer valid or associated with this litigation. litigation. Up on information and belief, belief, the number you called, (352) 5 02-8409 was associated years ago with my cell phone and disconnected disconnected and reassigned in 2007. See Notice Fraud On The Court By Ryan Christopher Rodems, filed Ju ne 17, 2010.
Mr. Ryan Christopher Rodems, Attorney at Law

response to the motions you improperly set for June 9, 2010, and the hearing which Judge Cook canceled, the motions are all related to collection the final judgment $11,550. A Motion For Reconsideration the final judgment and other orders and rulings made by disqualified Judge Barton wa filed under Fla.R.Jud.Admin., Rule judg e may be 2.33O(h), Prior Rulings. Prior factual or legal rulings by a disqualified judge reconsidered and vacated or amended by a successor successor judge based upon a motion for reconsideration. Schlesinger v. Chemical Bank, 707 So.2d 868, Fla.App. 4 Dist.,1998. held that final judgment entered by ajudge wh wa later disqualified is, like any other order, subject to being reconsidered by successor judge. In
Because a motion for reconsideration has been filed, and considering the holding Schlesinger v. Chemical Bank, it is reasonable to assume that the final judgment $11,550 will be voided because the extreme injustice it represents. Therefore your motions related to the collection of the fmaljudgment are now misplaced. If the fmal judgment is voided, your motions will be moot. Therefore I am justified in not providing the discovery and I am justified in not attending the deposition. Again, Again, when can I expect to receive your outstanding discovery

Responses to Defendants’ Interrogatories of September 2, 2008 were provided by my former lawyer Robert W. Bauer, October 1, 2008, see attached. The verification page was signed and notarized by me October 2, 2008. Mr. Bauer submitted the signed and notarized verification page to the Clerk of Court October 3, 2008. New information. Interrogatory No. 1. Mr. Bauer previously provided bank records. There are no other records available to provide any additional a dditional information that would allow the Plaintiff to answer this question. On November 16, 2009 I requested my client file from Mr. Bauer. He responded by letter November 23, 2009 that he was exercising a charging lien and refused to provide the file. The matter is currently subject to regulatory process. In response to Mr. Rodems’ speculation contained in “Defendant’s Motion For An Order Compelling Plaintiff To Respond To The Defendant’s Interrogatories” that “Defendant in good faith believes Plaintiff uses more than one bank account, has debit cards or credit cards, and operates a business or makes purchases using PayPal or other similar payment services”: Plaintiff has no bank account. Plaintiff has no credit card. Plaintiff uses throw-away debit cards that have no records. Plaintiff does not operate a business or make purchases for the business using PayPal or other similar payment services. Interrogatory No. 2. Plaintiff provided the answer by way of his “Affidavit and Inventory of Personal Property of Neil J. Gillespie and Designated Exemptions” submitted to the court April 28, 2010, see copy attached.
