Re: Lucy M. Sullivan vs. United States Radium Corp.
Dear Mr. Markley:
This will acknowledge receipt of your letter of
December 30th with reference to conference you had with
Mr. Peer of Messrs. Peer & Mahr. We are in accord with your
suggestion that we refuse to enter into any negotiations for
settlement of this case.
In view of Judge Forman's decision, it seems to me
that we must assume that we are in rather a formidable position
as far as our defense is concerned, and therefore should not
consider paying out any further monies to former employees un-
less an appeal is taken in the case and Judge Forman's opinion
reversed. In any event, we have decided to fight this thing
through to a finish, and we must "stick by our guns" in that
direction.
The question of Mr. Emmerglick associating himself
with counsel for other plaintiffs in appealing the LaPorte
decision is one which we must watch closely and definitely
determine Mr. Emmerglick's intentions or plans in that direction,
before making a final decision as to agreeing to the suggestion
of Judge Forman that Mr. Emmerglick be paid an honorarium.
With Best Wishes for the New Year, I am,
Sincerely yours,
