Re: 3-09CV0988-F In Re Jeff Baron Receivership
Your Honor,
We swore an oath to protect and defend the constitution. Far too many young men
have shed their blood defending our constitutional rights, to allow the constitution to be
subverted for expedience.
The Seventh Amendment guarantees every American, including Jeff Baron, the
right to trial by jury. E.g., Ross v. Bernhard, 396 U.S. 531, 542 (1970). I am ashamed of
the attorneys working so hard to subvert the constitution for the jingle of silver.
If Jeff 'wins' and is afforded the constitutional right to trial by jury, we all win. If
he loses, we all lose.
If your honor finds this letter helpful, please pay my fee. Your honor hired me to
be Jeff's trial counsel, but your honor has not paid the bill for the work. There are over
700 hours of work accumulated since your honor hired me.
Very truly yours,
Gary N. Schepps
Court ordered trial counsel for Jeff Baron
Your honor may find that protecting the constitution also leads to a good result for all
involved. If helpful for you honors consideration, the moment the receivership is
dissolvedit has stretched already four long months, we will ask the claimant attorneys
to join us at the State Bar fee dispute committee to arbitrate.

I note also that the receiver has billed a whopping sum. As your honor is aware, Jeff has
been 100% neutralized in the bankruptcy court. Yet, in addition to the receiver, Ray
Urbanik still came up with an additional half million dollar bill during this period.
Jeff funded more than a million and a half dollars to the bankruptcy to pay creditor (ie.,
attorneys) claims in that case in full. There is no justification for Urbaniks bill Jeff
has been out of the game in that court for four months.
Is this really what your honor intended ?
