3. Please find attached as Exhibit B, a true and correct copy of the San Francisco
County Superior Court Minutes dated September 19, 2012 in San Francisco County
Superior Court, Case Nos. 10018652, 10009193, 100009191, and 10003838, asserted
against Jay Shah and his criminal co-conspirators. Plaintiff Commonwealth requests that this
Court take judicial notice of this document pursuant to California Evidence Code section 452.
4, On September 8, 2010, Commonwealth filed its civil complaint against Shah
and others involved in the criminal scheme, including FedEx as the employer of the notary
who notarized the fraudulent deeds and deeds of trust. Plaintiff Commonwealth requests that
this Court take judicial notice of this fact pursuant to California Evidence Code section 452.
5. Shah responded to the complaint by filing an Answer on December 30, 2010.
Plaintiff Commonwealth requests that this Court take judicial notice of this fact pursuant to
California Evidence Code section 452.
6. In January 2014, Commonwealth and Hwang settled their claims against
FedEx at mediation with Michael Ornstil of JAMS. I communicated directly with counsel
who attended the mediation on Commonwealth’s behalf and was informed of this
settlement. I subsequently reviewed the settlement documents and saw the documents
signed by all of the parties. I also spoke with the claims attorney involved in the case on
behalf of Commonwealth and was informed that all parties had performed all acts required
of them in the settlement agreement.
7. As the result of an office clerical error, Commonwealth filed its Request for
Dismissal of FedEx on May 8, 2015, though Commonwealth had considered FedEx
dismissed from the case for over a year before then. In my discussions with the claims
attorney involved in the case on behalf of Commonwealth in May 2015, he had assumed that
the dismissals had been entered a year ago.
