I just came back from the US District Court/Brooklyn (NY), where the case 99-CV-3487 was filed last Friday.

There, one can see that this CLASS ACTION is filed against the REPUBLIC of POLAND, MINISTRY OF THE TREASURY OF POLAND (!!!!!!)

So, where is the Sovereign Immunity???

I have the Civil Docket with me.

Any interest?

Let me know.

Forward your fax no.  (3 pages to send)

...........................................

Last Thursday, I spoke with Mr. Klein about this suit. He told me to see him a.s.a.p. for a possible Class Action of "us" versus the Republic of Croatia, on a same/similar basis.

He asked me: "How many people involved?"
Answer: "As much as we found to participate in a Class Action".
If none, I might go alone.

He is working on CONTINGENCY basis.
Main question: "What about the ""Sovereign Immunity""?
Apparently, some new legislation came recently, which makes "Sovereign Immunity" of a lesser obstacle.

I am planing to go back to Brooklyn to copy the full file of this suit (possibly today or tomorrow). I am planing to study this and then give him a call for an appointment, either this or next week.

Please let me know your position. Give me a list of all questions or topics I must discuss with him. That will help me a lot.
