There was a hearing in Supreme Court yesterday on Mr. Waterman's motion for "discovery" concerning various issues relating to Wine Care Storage.

The Judge granted all of Mr. Watermans requests:

1.  Mr. Waterman will be allowed to inspect the premises where the wine has been stored;

2.  Wine Care Storage is required to turn over to Mr. Waterman documentation related to the insurance of the customer's wines and other storm related documentation.  Note:  The Environmental Protection Agency required Wine Care Storage to vacate the space that it was occupying; and

3.  Counsel for Mr. Waterman may depose Wine Care Storage.

The foregoing is to take place within the next two to three weeks.

Counsel for Mr. Waterman has agreed to furnish copies to me of all of the documents that they receive. I will post these materials on the blog as soon as I receive it.

  1. Hello Alan,

    I am writing on behalf of a client of mine who had just WCS with over 70k worth of vintage wine approximately 2 weeks before Sandy touched down and for that reason had not even received a record of the wine they had in storage for him. He had been corresponding with someone by the name of Samantha who has ceased to respond to his multiple email inquiries about the status of his inventory. Could you please advise me on the best way to contact you or to keep up to speed on the proceedings of this case?

    Thank You.

    Jacob H.
