Schimmel and a few others recently filed a motion to compel complete discovery responses and production of documents in the bankruptcy case of PFO Global, Inc. et al pursuant to Rule 37(a)(1) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.

The allegations against the Defendants spanned over several years and claimed over 40 “breaches of duties” by the Defendants.
