FILED: SUFFOLK COUNTY CLERK 12/07/2018 04:42 PM INDEX NO. 063193/2013 NYSCEF DOC. NO. 242 RECEIVED NYSCEF: 12/07/2018 Exhibit N FILED: SUFFOLK COUNTY CLERK 12/07/2018 04:42 PM INDEX NO. 063193/2013 NYSCEF DOC. NO. 242 RECEIVED NYSCEF: 12/07/2018 From: Tim McEnaney, Esq. To: Supernaw, Jessica; Ted Sklar Lootm - Perez Discovery Referee; Johnson, Michael Subject: Re: Perez v. Tedesco - Expert meeting tomorrow? Date: Saturday, December 3, 2016 12:40:27 PM Ms. Supernaw, The items to be discussed by our respective experts are those that were covered related to their upcoming efforts during our 11/29/16 conference with Mr. Sklar (Plaintiff's spoliation sanctions motion "meet & confer") and in Mr. Sklar's resulting 11/30/16 Order.They will also confer and agree upon the methods and timing of same so that compliance with Mr. Sklar's Order may be achieved expeditiously. As stated previously, Mr. Demirkaya, in compliance with said Order, will visually demonstrate for Mr. Graziano what he is yet unable to find, including log files, user accounts, and metadata, will inquire as to whether and where those missing items may be found or obtained, and will show Mr. Graziano the myriad files and data which he has found in the forensic images entrusted to his care, but which he has, so far, been unable to authenticate. Mr. Johnson has opined, repeatedly, that Mr. Demirkaya's inability to locate the files and data he needs to authenticate the contents of the forensic images in his possession is due to his lack of familiarity with Group's systems. It is hoped that Mr. Graziano, who has been retained for several months a this point as Defendants' forensic computer expert, and has, presumably, completely familiarized himself with Group's software systems and infrastructure, will be able to show him anything he may have overlooked. Once Mr. Graziano has been shown Mr. Demirkaya's findings, Mr. Graziano will be free to give his expert opinion as to any possible solutions (based upon his familiarity with Total Computer Systems infrastructure, etc.), and, for any items Mr. Graziano believes require further investigation, he will have the opportunity to independently investigate solutions and workarounds, privately, with Group's engineers the following day, Tuesday 12/6/16.As such, respectfully, there is nothing else for Mr. Graziano to "prepare" for or do in advance, apart from checking his schedule for next week so that the experts may agree on dates for performing any work they deem necessary. If, in Mr. Graziano's expert opinion (which, again, he may form either before or after speaking with Group's engineers on Tuesday, 12/6/16, at his election), the difficulties Mr. Demirkaya has been experiencing can be addressed, the experts will come to agreement by the following day (Wednesday, 12/7/16) on how and when that can most quickly be accomplished. I hope this serves to clarify the purpose of Monday's meeting. Please feel free to forward this email, along with a copy of Mr. Sklar's 11/30/16 decision, to Mr. Graziano so that he may consider same in advance, and feel free, as well, to contact me should you have any other questions regarding same. Enjoy your weekend. Best regards, Timothy McEnaney, Esq.

I apologize for the brief misunderstanding regarding timing, which was promptly corrected.

Our experts will discuss how and when they will comply with that Order and schedule same. Was there something else that you feel requires a description?
