IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF FEDERAL CLAIMS ALFRED ALOISI, et al., Plaintiffs v. UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Defendant. ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) )
No. 95-650L Hon. Lawrence S. Margolis
MOTION TO COMPEL THE APPEARANCE OF PLAINTIFF JAMES KENDLE AT DEPOSITION Pursuant to Rule 37 of the Rules of the Court of Federal Claims, Defendant, the United States of America, hereby moves for an order compelling Plaintiff James Kendle to appear at deposition. The United States previously moved to compel the appearance of Plaintiffs Energel, Inc. ("Energel") and Dynatech Corporation ("Dynatech") when Plaintiffs were unable to designate an individual to testify on behalf of either of those parties. See Def.'s Mot. to Compel, dated Nov. 30, 2007 (Docket No. 105). That motion currently is pending. As we noted in the motion to compel the appearance of Energel and Dynatech, the United States was hopeful that Plaintiffs would make Mr. Kendle available at a deposition, as they are required to do under the Rules of this Court. See id. at 1 n.1. Regrettably, Plaintiffs have been unable or unwilling to make Mr. Kendle available for deposition, requiring Defendant to file this motion. As discussed below, counsel for the United States has made good faith efforts to resolve this matter informally with Plaintiffs' counsel, without success. See RCFC 37(a)(2)(B). Accordingly, the United States moves to compel the appearance of Plaintiff James Kendle at deposition. If Plaintiffs are unable or unwilling to make Mr. Kendle available, the United States respectfully requests that the Court order such relief that the Court deems just and appropriate, pursuant to Rule 37 of the Rules of the Court of Federal Claims. / See RCFC 37(d). Plaintiffs' counsel, Mr. McBride, informed counsel for Defendant that he spoke with Mr. Kendle during the latter half of November, 2007, and indicated that Mr. Kendle is considering

Based on Alfred Aloisi's and Candis Potter's (formerly known as Candis Aloisi) deposition testimony, it appears that Plaintiff Kendle did not know about this action or the fact that he was named as a plaintiff until recently. See Aloisi Tr. at 6 (Oct. 31, 2007) (testifying that he had not spoken to Mr. Kendle since 1991, that Plaintiff Aloisi was "not certain" if Mr. Kendle knows that he is a plaintiff in this action, and that Plaintiff Aloisi did not send a copy of the Complaint to Mr. Kendle) (excerpts are attached, hereto, as Ex. A); see also Potter Tr. at 5556, 61 (Nov. 16, 2007) (referring to plaintiffs' document A-181, a March 11, 1994 Notice of Labor to Delinquent Co-Owner, and testifying that her only contact with Mr. Kendle was mailing a copy of the notice letter to Mr. Kendle, and testifying that should could not recall sending a copy of the Complaint to him) (excerpts are attached as Ex. B). / Counsel for the United States, therefore, has serious concerns about why Mr. Kendle may be refusing to appear at a deposition. It is clear that Mr. Kendle is likely to have information relevant to the issues involved in this case. Mr. Kendle apparently co-owned at least some of the mining claims at issue with Plaintiff Aloisi and, between Plaintiffs Alfred Aloisi and James Kendle, Mr. Kendle was more responsible for keeping Liberty Mining, Inc.'s books. Ex. A at 29-30, 104-105. Accordingly, Mr. Kendle is likely to have information relating to Plaintiffs' investment-backed expectations, and other factors that must be considered in a regulatory takings case such as this. See Penn Central Transp. Co. v. New York City, 438 U.S. 104, 124 (1978). Defendant tried unsuccessfully to resolve this issue in good faith with Plaintiffs' counsel prior to bringing this Motion to Compel. After issuing a Notice of Deposition of James Kendle being voluntarily dismissed. Dismissing Mr. Kendle without affording the United States an opportunity to depose him, however, would be prejudicial to Defendant because he likely has relevant information as discussed below.

on October 15, 2007 (see Ex. C), Plaintiffs' counsel informed counsel for Defendant on October 25, 2007, that he had not been able to reach Mr. Kendle. See E-mail from Lawrence G. McBride to Bruce K. Trauben (Oct. 25, 2007) (attached as Ex. D). By that time, the parties had agreed to depose available witnesses in Yreka, California during the week of October 29, 2007, although Plaintiffs' counsel still could not find Mr. Kendle. After the conclusion of the depositions in Yreka, Mr. McBride wrote to counsel for Defendant on November 5, 2007 stating that he was working on the availability of the other witnesses for whom Defendant had issued a notice of deposition. See Letter from Lawrence G. McBride to Bruce K. Trauben at 2, with cover E-mail (Nov. 5, 2007) (attached as Ex. E). To assist Plaintiffs' counsel in locating Mr. Kendle, Defendant conducted a computer-based search and forwarded Mr. Kendle's address electronically to Plaintiffs' counsel. See E-mail from Bruce K. Trauben to Lawrence G. McBride (Nov. 7, 2007), with attachment (attached, hereto, as Ex. F). Counsel for Defendant sent an e-mail and letter to Plaintiffs' counsel on November 9, 2007, suggesting that Defendant may need to bring a motion to compel, if Mr. Kendle were not soon made available for a deposition. See Letter from Bruce K. Trauben to Lawrence G. McBride (Nov. 9, 2007), with E-mail (attached as Ex. G). Plaintiffs' counsel notified counsel for Defendant on November 12, 2007, that he had spoken to Mr. Kendle's brother and hoped to hear soon from Mr. Kendle, who apparently was living in a mobile home with no fixed address. See E-mail from Lawrence G. McBride to Bruce K. Trauben (Nov. 12, 2007) (attached as Ex. H). Soon after the Thanksgiving holiday, Plaintiffs' counsel verbally informed counsel for Defendant that he had spoken to Mr. Kendle, and that Mr. Kendle was to make a decision by Monday, December 3, 2007 regarding whether to remain a Plaintiff in this action. Counsel for Defendant wrote to Plaintiffs' counsel on November 29, 2007, stating that while Mr. Kendle may decide that he wants to be dismissed from this action, Defendant still intends to depose him. See E-mail from Bruce K. Trauben to Lawrence G. McBride (Nov. 29, 2007) (attached as Ex. I). -3-

Counsel spoke again on December 4, 2007, but Plaintiffs' counsel had not yet heard back from Mr. Kendle, precipitating this motion. For the foregoing reasons, pursuant to Rule 37, the Court should therefore issue an Order compelling Plaintiff James Kendle to appear at deposition. If Plaintiffs are unwilling or unable to make Mr. Kendle available for deposition, then the Court should grant such relief as it deems appropriate and just under the circumstances.

On your side , I would appreciate your sending me the complete current index to the
Forest Service " document series, to which you added the Mineral Report and its attachments
and appendices ,
and perhaps other material. The index I have of the Forest Service document set
ends at FS- 189.
Also , we need to receive the memorandum Mike Lee testified he sent to his superiors at some point after July 23, 1990 (the date ofthe FWS biological opinion), and the related agency fie responding to him , if any - as described by Mr. Lee , the memorandum asked questions about the agency s handling of northern spotted owl issues with respect to mining. So far as I could see , no such document was previously produced in the Forest Service document series; please correct me if! have missed it. Absent production of this material we expect confirmation that there is no such memorandum and agency fie.
Please let me know when you have received and can share the documents you receive from attorney Jerry Jacobson in response to the subpoena you indicated that you served on Mr. Jacobson electronically on Thursday. We recognize there are a number of other issues to treat , including whether you stil wish to depose others among those you noticed. I am working on their availability should you stil wish to do so , and I should have information on that score in the next couple of days. I am stil decided whether we need to subpoena any ex- Forest Service employees among those you indicated would not cooperate with you last week.
Sincerely,

Shapiro , William (ENRD); Miller , Shelley (ENRD) Aloisi: Suggestion of Death of Goodman & Depositions of Kendle , 30(b)(6) of Energel and Dynatech
Larry: Just a reminder that on Tuesday, I intend to file a Suggestion of Death of Donald W. Goodman , forwarding a copy of an obituary notice to the Court , unless Plaintiffs file today. (By the way, according to the Reading Eagle , Mr. Goodman died June 4 2005 at 2:45 p. m. in his Wrightsvile , PA residence. ) Also , next week , we will have no choice but to file a motion to compel the depositions of James Kendle and 30(b)(6) depositions of Energel and Dynatech. In light of the death of Donald W. Goodman , if there no longer is someone who can speak or act on behalf of these corporate entities , then they should be dismissed from this action with prejudice. So that I don t file an unnecessary motion to compel with respect to Energel and Dynatech , I suggest that you send a letter to my attention as soon as possible , indicating that they wil be dismissed with prejudice. In the meantime , we are looking into a venue for a telephone deposition of Candis Aloisi Potter near Truth or Consequences , NM. Thanks. Bruce

2007 Letter to Bruce K. Trauben , Esq.
I have been talking with Jim Kendle s brother Jeff (through Kendle Trucking in Medford), but they do not have a fixed address for him at this point. My address/contact point was through Kendle Trucking. I believe one of the trackers you ve used called there , too , as Jeff reported an out of the blue inquiry for Jim recently, too. Jeff says Jim calls Jeff and/or his father periodically, but has not recently. I have apprised Jeff , but have been unable to apprise Jim , of your desire to depose him -s missing to me , too. They expect they might hear from him at Thanksgiving, if we can hold this issue over that week.
I specifically asked about the Portland address we had , but Jeff says their father gave Jim his mobile home some while back. As far as they know , he has no fixed address. As to Myron and Goodman , I plan to make the Rule 25(a) filing as soon as I have the chance to understand from Myron the status of the estate and heirs and deal with him/it/them on the situation.

2007 Letter to Bruce K. Trauben , Esq.
Larry: I spoke with Myron Finkelstein today, and learned that he has about one box of documents to produce. Also we spoke briefly about the estate and substitution of parties for Don Goodman. It seems as though the estate was wound up with a final distribution to Don s 3 children , but the fast-talking Mr. Finkelstein said , I believe , that nothing is final " suggesting to me that it may be re-opened. The notice of death to the court only starts the 90 day trigger for the substitution of parties -- it seems that 3 months should be suffcient time and the court probably would allow more time if needed. As you no doubt know , the government cannot settle this action (if we walk down that path) without the approval of all plaintiffs. In other actions that I' ve settled where we learned at the time of settlement that some of the plaintiffs were deceased , they were either substituted by the executor of the estate or dismissed from the action prior to final settlement - it was not diffcult , but it held everything up for several months. Why wait , when we know now that it needs to be done? I will confer with my colleagues and let you know of our decision before filing anything with the court regarding Don Goodman.
Also , more troubling for me personally and for the government than the Don Goodman situation , is that James Kendle may not be aware of this action and has not been kept apprised of its status. If that is the case it potentially raises professional responsibility concerns - yours under ABA Model Rules 1.2 and 1.4 , and now mine under Rule 8. 3 (the CFC has adopted the ABA Model Rules; and the D. C. Rules are very similar , if not identical). If there is any non- privileged information that you can provide to me that would ease those concerns , it would be greatly appreciated. It seems that the best solution would be to inform Mr. Kendle of the litigation and the government' s desire to take his deposition , rather than have his apparent lack of knowledge of this suit brought to the court' s attention though a motion to compel his appearance , which the government soon will need to file (at this point , I'm only waiting for the transcript of Fred' s recent deposition to attach excerpts to the motion).
Best regards , Bruce

Importance:
Larry: Actually, I was hoping to hear back from you today regarding Energel and Dynatech , so you still have today to work
it out. If it's not resolved by COB today, tomorrow I' ll file the motion. With respect to James Kendle , I appreciate that he
may want to be dismissed from this action , but I still have the right to depose him since he sued the government. I currently anticipate taking Kendle s deposition even if he decides to be dismissed from the action. Now that you ve located him , please let me know when and where the deposition may be held. It may be a telephone deposition , but I' ll need to know where he resides so I may locate a court reporter in his area (like with Candis Potter , I would ask that he travel to the reporter s offices). If the government' s desire to depose James Kendle should change , I'll let you know. Thanks.
