Judge Furman: Would you like me to wait until Monday to enter this?
Baldor Specialty Foods counsel: That would result in an additional attorney's fee.
Judge Furman: $19,000 seems a little bit high for this. I reviewed your billing records and they seem reasonable
Baldor's counsel: We had to look into PACA and PACA trusts.
[Inner City Press has covered these PACA suits, including on... Bronx Avocado: innercitypress.com/sdny136woodspa…
Baldor's: We had to pay for Federal Express.
Judge Furman: I'm prepared to grant the motion, I'll hold off until Monday. Had Hale & Hearty appeared? [Pause] No. Anything else Ms. Shea? Adjourned.
