SUMMARY

ACCORDING TO NYS LIQUOR AUTHORITY AGENTS ABOVE, THE CRIME OF AVAILING IS "AKIN TO MURDER" AND PUNISHABLE BY SIGNIFICANT FINES AND IMPRISONMENT.  IT WAS THE VERY REASON THE SLA WAS FORMED:

"TO REGULATE THE LIQUOR INDUSTRY STILL RIFE WITH MOBSTERS."

MR. PADUANO DID NOT WANT TO MAKE ANY LEGAL RECORD OF 286 LLC'S EXISTENCE BECAUSE ON 'MAY 30, 2014,' THREE WEEKS AFTER STEALING CONTROL OF MY BAR, HE WANTED TO CLOSE IT.

MR. PADUANO HAD SAID TO ME WALKING OUT OF THE COURTHOUSE ON MAY 5, 2014: 

**************************************************************************

"I COULD GET IN A LOT OF TROUBLE FOR WHAT I JUST DID."  

**************************************************************************

AS IF HE WAS DOING ME A FAVOR STEALING MY BAR FOR HIMSELF AND MAKING ME PAY FOR IT?

MR. PAUANO LIED TO THE WORLD THAT - 'I' - PREVENTED HIM AND HIS LAW FIRM FROM GETTING A LIQUOR LICENSE.  HOW COULD I POSSIBLY DO THAT?  WHY WOULD I WANT TO?   

• WHERE ARE ALL HIS EMAILS FOR 18 MONTHS DEMANDING I SIGN THE DOCUMENT HE CENTERS HIS WHOLE INCREDULOUS 'BLAME THE VICTIM' GAME UPON?

• IS MR. PADUANO ABSURDLY AND PATHETICALLY CLAIMING HE IS MY VICTIM?

• IS HE AND HIS ENTIRE LAW FIRM SO WEAK THAT I COULD OVERPOWER IT?

• IS HE SO IGNORANT OF THE LAW, HE DID NOT KNOW THIS LEGAL REQUIREMENT WAS OF EXISTENTIAL  IMPORTANCE?

• IS HE SO ENTITLED HE DOES NOT CARE IF HE DOES VIOLATE LAWS?

HE DID NOT WANT TO BE ON THE LICENSE AND MALICIOUSLY TRIED TO FRAME ME FOR HIS CONTINUING VIOLATIONS OF THE LAW.   HE DID THIS SO HE WOULD HAVE AN EXCUSE TO TELL RUTH AND MR. WEINTRAUB WHEN HE CLOSED THE BAR AND STARTED HIS OWN IN ITS PLACE: 

HE PATHETICALLY PUT FORTH THE INCREDIBLE NOTION THAT "HE" WAS THE VICTIM!  MY VICTIM. 

HIS RIDICULOUS 'BIG LIE' IS 'OUTED' WITHIN 2 SECONDS OF READING HIS SELF-INCRIMINATING EMAILS DISPLAYED ON THIS WEBSITE WHICH HE ARROGANTLY THOUGHT WOULD NEVER SEE THE LIGHT OF DAY. 

MOST IMPORTANTLY, IF YOU ARE TO TAKE MR. PADUANO'S BIG LIE SERIOUSLY, THEN HIS 'PURPOSEFUL NEGLECT' TO SEND ME HOURLY OBLIGATORY EMAILS TO REMIND ME OF THIS ESSENTIAL MATTER TO THE BAR'S VERY EXISTENCE - ARE IN TOTAL CONTRADICTION TO HIS CLAIM THAT I STOPPED HIM AND HIS LAW FIRM IN ITS TRACKS.

***WHEN HE CAVALIERLY FLAUNTED HIS REPREHENSIBLE GROSS NEGLIGENCE IN HIS NOVEMBER 12, 2014 EMAIL - WHAT STOPPED HIM FROM TRYING TO GET A LICENSE FOR OVER A YEAR AFTERWARDS?

TODD AND I HAVE A HUNDRED EMAILS DURING THAT TIME (AND ALL OTHERS) SHOWING OUR GOOD FAITH AND UTTER RESPECT.  WE ALSO HAVE A HUNDRED FROM MR. PADUANO THAT DO NOT MENTION THIS APPLICATION IN QUESTION.  (THERE WAS ONE CONFUSING EXCHANGE WHERE HE MISDIRECTED THE DOCUMENT TO THE CB7 AND WE CORRECTED HIM, AND THEN CB7 CORRECTED HIM WITH THE SAME DIRECTIONS.  THEN HE NEVER MENTIONED IT AGAIN.

I WAS NEVER EVEN COPIED ON THOSE EMAILS TO CB7 EITHER, AS CAN BE SEEN FROM THE DATES OF THE EXCHANGES. 

****************************

INSTEAD OF THEN SENDING THE APPLICATION TO THE SLA AS INSTRUCTED BY CB7, HE SILENTLY DROPPED THE BALL ENTIRELY AND FIRST INFORMED US ON NOVEMBER 12, 2014 AS AN EXCUSE FOR 'MY' CAUSING HIS AVAILING.

*****************************

I AM SURE HE UNDERSTANDS THAT THIS MIS-DIRECTED DOCUMENT OCCURRED 'AFTER' HIS INITIATING ILLEGAL 286 AGREEMENT, INVOICES, VIOLATIONS, AND MULTIPLE FRAUDS FOR THE PREVIOUS THREE MONTHS.  

I DO NOT HATE MR. PADUANO.  WE FEEL SORRY FOR HIM.  TODD AND I NEVER REFUSED A SINGLE THING HE ASKED US TO DO.  WE ALWAYS FOLLOWED ALL OF MR. PADUANO DEMANDS, CRAZY OR CRAZIER, UNTIL IT WAS INEXCUSABLY, IMPOSSIBLY ILLEGAL AND I WOULD HAVE TO BREAK THE LAW AND PUT MYSELF IN MORE LEGAL JEOPARDY THAN HE ALREADY PUT ME IN.

HIS FRAMING ME FOR HIS OWN CRIMES MADE ME VERY SICK, LITERALLY.  I ALMOST KILLED MYSELF, I WAS SUFFERING SO MUCH.  I HAD A 'PSYCHOTIC' NERVOUS BREAKDOWN AND NOW HAVE TO TAKE A DRUG FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE TO TO KEEP IT AT BAY. TODD AND I BOTH SEE PSYCHIATRISTS, MONTHLY AS A RESULT OF MR. PADUANO'S ATROCIOUS INFLICTION OF EMOTIONAL STRESS.

MY 'ONLY' GOAL WAKING UP EVERY MORNING WAS: HOW COULD I SAVE MY GOOD REPUTATION FROM MR. PADUANO'S INEVITABLE CAREER ENDING, LIFE ALTERING, PUBLIC HUMILIATION?  I KNEW I COULDN'T.  HE WAS ALREADY DOING IT.

MR. PADUANO WANTED TO GET AWAY FROM HIS FRAUDS, AS MUCH AS WE WANTED TO GET AWAY FROM HIM.  AND HE NEEDED A SCAPEGOAT.

MR. PADUANO LAMELY WHIMPERS THAT I REFUSED TO SIGN HIS APPLICATION TO THE SLA. I NEVER REFUSED AND I HAVE OVER A HUNDRED EMAILS DURING THIS TIME PERIOD CORROBORATING HE MADE NO EFFORT TO APPLY TO THE SLA.  

I WAS THE ONLY PERSON IN DANGER OF LOSING THEIR LICENSE BECAUSE OF MR. PADUANO'S REFUSAL TO TAKE ACTION.  HE, P&W, AND 286 LLC DID NOT EXIST TO THE SLA. I WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR NOT REPORTING HIS GROSS NEGLIGENCE - NOT APPLYING FOR A LICENSE WITHIN TEN DAYS OF MAY 5, 2014.

I BEGGED HIM TO APPLY TO THE SLA SO THE BAR WOULD NOT BE CLOSED. 

I EVEN SENT HIM INSTRUCTIONS HOW TO DO IT.  BUT HE ALREADY KNEW HOW, BECAUSE HE SPENT THREE MONTHS SUCCESSFULLY APPLYING TO THE SLA FOR MY 100% OWNERSHIP/ LICENSE COMMITTING SERIOUS FRAUDS IN THE PROCESS.

THIS WEBSITE IS CURRENTLY UNDER CONSTRUCTION, IN THE DAILY PROCESS OF UPLOADING DOCUMENTS.

THE WEBSITE WAS BUILT ONLY TO DISPLAY DOCUMENTS TO SUPPLEMENT MY ALLEGATIONS IN MY BOOK. THEY SPEAK FOR THEMSELF.

THE DOCUMENTS ARE DISPLAYED BY CATEGORY, NOT DATE.  HOWEVER, WHEN YOU PUT ALL OF THE CATEGORIES  IN ORDER BY DATE, IT IS EASY TO SEE THAT THEY REPRESENT A "DAILY AND CONSISTENT" ONGOING EFFORT BY MR. PADUANO TO CLOSE THE COMPANY AND TAKE IT OVER FOR HIMSELF.

NOTES:

• THE DOCUMENTS ARE REDLINED AND MANY EMAILS ARE DISPLAYED ONLY CONTAINING THE RELEVANT EXCERPTS WHICH ARE HIGHLIGHTED AND EXPANDED - BECAUSE THAT BEST ILLUSTRATES HOW SHOCKING THEY LOOKED TO TODD AND I WHEN WE READ THEM.  THEY ARE NOT TAKEN OUT OF CONTEXT.  THEY ARE THE CONTEXT AND JUST AN EXAMPLE OF A HUNDRED OTHERS WITH THE SAME SENTIMENT.

• MR. PADUANO WAS WAITING FOR THE BAR TO FAIL DURING THE WINTER.  MR. PADUANO FAILED TO HAVE OUR FRONT DOOR VESTIBULE RETURNED BY THE FORMER INVESTORS TO STOP THE WINTER AIR FROM GUSHING INTO THE ENTIRE 24FT X 24FT SPACE. 

• WE NEVER BORROWED ANOTHER PENNY FROM MR. PADUANO OR ANYBODY ELSE AFTER JUNE 3, 2014.  WE COULD NOT INVOLVE ANY OTHER INVESTOR INTO THE MR. PADUANO'S MESS BY SELLING SOME OF MY OWN STOCK.  MR. PADUANO COULD NOT SELL HIS STOCK, BECAUSE HE REFUSED TO HAVE ANY.  

• BY THE SPRING OF 2015, THE BAR HAD ENOUGH CASH FLOW TO UPGRADE TO A 'FULL' LIQUOR LICENSE.  THAT INCENSED MR. PADUANO BECAUSE THE FULL LICENSE APPLICATION WOULD BE 'PROBLEMATIC' IN HIS AVAILMENT.  

• MR. PADUANO HAD LIED TO ME FROM MAY 5, 2014 UNTIL NOVEMBER 12, 2014 THAT HE HAD APPLIED FOR THE "FULL" LIQUOR LICENSE, THAT WE BOTH HAD AGREED THE BAR NEEDED TO COMPETE AGAINST ALL THE OTHER WINE BARS THAT NOW HAD THEM.

• MR. PADUANO ONLY APPLIED TO THE SLA TO CHANGE 'MY' CURRENT 21% LICENSE OWNERSHIP TO 100% OWNERSHIP.  THIS REFLECTED ALL HIS OTHER FILINGS EVERYWHERE ELSE, THAT I WAS THE 100% OWNER OF MY BAR.  

•  I FINALLY RECEIVED MY 100% LICENSE ON JULY 23, 2014 MR. PADUANO OBTAINED FOR ME, TAKING HIM ALMOST 3 MONTHS .  FOR THE NEXT 18 MONTHS HE REAFFIRMED THAT I OWNED 100% ON EVERY SINGLE DOCUMENT AND EMAIL WITH EVERY GOVERNMENT AGENCY AND BUSINESS CONCERN. 

• THE EMAILS AND DOCUMENTS DISPLAYED ON THIS SITE MAY BE REPEATED UNDER MULTIPLE CATEGORIES BECAUSE MANY TIMES THEY FIT MORE THAN JUST ONE CATEGORY.  

• EVERY OFFICIAL DOCUMENT MR. PADUANO CIRCULATED AFTER MAY 5, 2014 WAS A 'CONFLICT OF INTEREST' AND POTENTIALLY 'WIRE FRAUD.'  HOW COULD IT BE OTHERWISE?   

• MR. PADUANO AVOIDED EMAILING ME AT EVERY OPPORTUNITY.  INSTEAD, HE WOULD WRITE TO MY HUSBAND.  TODD HAD TO RELAY THE INFORMATION DISCUSSED TO ME.  SOMETIMES MR. PADUANO COPIED ME.  

• THERE WAS NO REASON FOR HIM TO KEEP ME OUT OF THE LOOP, OTHER THAN HE WROTE THAT HE "RESENTED (REPRESENTING) ME FROM DAY ONE."

• MR. PADUANO WAS FULL OF RESENTMENT BECAUSE RUTH MADE HIM HELP ME.  SO HE HELPED HIMSELF, INSTEAD.  

• TO AVOID ANY CONFUSION, THIS 'WEBSITE' DOES NOT INCLUDE "THE DAKOTA BAR," WHICH I WAS MANAGING AT THE TIME, WAITING FOR WINE & ROSES TO BE RETURNED TO *ME.*   

• HIS ILLEGAL CLOSING OF WINE & ROSES WOULD 'IMMEDIATELY' CAUSE MY REMOVAL AT THE DAKOTA BAR.  AND IT DID.  THE SAME WEEK.  

• HE WAS HOPING THE DAKOTA BAR WOULD ALSO CLOSE.

• THE EXPONENTIAL DISGRACE AND HUMILIATION OF LOSING TWO BARS AT ONCE COMPLETELY DESTROYED MY REPUTATION AND GAVE ME A SEVERE NERVOUS BREAKDOWN WITH LIFELONG CONSEQUENCES.

• THIS WAS THE STRESS I WAS LIVING UNDER:   I WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR MANAGING TWO BARS THAT WERE ACROSS THE STREET FROM EACH OTHER WITH DIFFERENT MAJORITY OWNERS WHO VIEWED EACH OTHER AS COMPETITORS.  AND, WORSE, EACH WERE IN COMPETITION WITH ME.

• MR. PADUANO LIVES ACROSS THE STREET FROM ME AND WE EACH LIVE WITHIN A BLOCK OF BOTH BARS.  ALMOST EVERY SINGLE PERSON IN THE AREA KNEW OF MY POPULAR VENUES.  IS THERE ANY DOUBT I WAS AN AGORAPHOBIC NERVOUS WRECK ABOUT TO CRACK?

• ALMOST EVERYTHING TODD AND I DID TO APPEASE MR. PADUANO WAS, IN FACT, A FUTILE ATTEMPT TO AVOID MY INEVITABLE CATASTROPHIC HUMILIATION CAUSED BY HIS ABSOLUTELY PREPOSTEROUS AND "IMPOSSIBLE TO FULFILL" 286 LLC AGREEMENT.

• NOW MY REPUTATION WOULD CONSIST OF LOSING THREE BARS (W&R TWICE) BY IRRATIONAL, SHAMELESS, AND RUTHLESS INVESTORS.  

TODD AND I ALWAYS SHOWERED MR. PADUANO WITH RESPECT.  INDEED, WE THREW FLOWERS AT HIS FEET.  WE WERE AWED BY WHAT A BEAUTIFUL PERSON HE WAS AND HOW LUCKY WE WERE TO HAVE HIM AS A FRIEND. 

*********************************************************

MR. PADUANO PLACES THE BELOW FRAUDULENT SIGN ON W&R LLC DOOR - ONLY TO HAVE CB7 CANCEL HIS HEARING BECAUSE HE DID NOT YET HAVE ANY LICENSE OR EVEN MORE IMPORTANTLY, A LEASE!

THE LANDLORD REFUSED TO EVER GIVE HIM A LEASE.

IN RETALIATION, MR. PADUANO ANGRILY BROKE MY MARBLE BAR INTO PIECES AND GUTTED THE LOCATION DOWN TO THE SUPPORT BEAMS.  

HOW MANY CRIMES DID MR. PADUANO COMMIT BEFORE NOVEMBER 12, 2014? 

THIS IS THE DATE THAT HE BELATEDLY INFORMS ME, WITHOUT PROOF, FOR 'ALLEGEDLY' DISOBEYING HIS 'ALLEGED' INSTRUCTIONS TO SIGN HIS INTENTIONALLY HIDDEN, MISDIRECTED, ERRONEOUSLY FILLED OUT APPLICATION.

ON NOVEMBER 12, 2014, INEXCUSABLY, HIS APPLICATION WAS ALREADY THREE MONTHS PAST HIS MISDIRECTED LETTER TO THE COMMUNITY BOARD ON AUGUST 6, 2014. IT WAS SIX MONTHS LATE! SINCE MAY 5,2014  IN VIOLATION OF THE SLA SHORT 10 DAY LEGAL "DEADLINE" TO INFORM THEM STATED ON ALL LIQUOR LICENSES. 

MR. PADUANO FALSELY AND SHAMELESSLY ACCUSED ME OF HAVING CAUSED HIS GROSS NEGLIGENCE(?) IN HIS BACKWARDS CIRCUITOUS PLAN TO MAKE ME HIS SCAPEGOAT.

WHY WOUILD I WANT THE SLA TO CLOSE THE BAR?  IT WAS MY PROFESSIONAL REPUTATION THAT WAS ON THE LINE.  NOT HIS.  IT WAS MY LAST INCH. 

***********************************

THESE ARE SOME OF THE QUESTIONS MR. PADUANO NEEDS TO ANSWER: 

***********************************

HOW WAS IT ***MY FAULT*** THAT MR. PADUANO:

• COERCED ME TO SIGN HIS SURPRISE 286 LLC AGREEMENT IN WHICH HE ROLLED $400,000.00 PRO BONO SERVICES INTO A COLLECTABLE DEBT?

• SENT ME FRAUDULENT DOCTORED SUMMARY INVOICES TOTALING EXACTLY $400,000.00 FOR HIS PRO BONO SERVICE?

• MASTERMINDED HIS OWN SERIOUS CONFLICTS OF INTEREST?

• AVAILED MY BAR, REFUSING TO PUT HIMSELF OR HIS COMPANIES ON A SINGLE OFFICIAL RECORD, NOT ONLY FOR THE SLA APPLICATION, BUT ON ANY DOCUMENT ANYWHERE?

• COMMITTED FRAUD TO EVERY ENTITY WITH WHICH I DID BUSINESS BY PROVIDING FALSE OWNERSHIP INFORMATION AND CHANGING HIS REPRESENTATION OF HIS ASSOCIATION WITH ME ACCORDING TO HIS HAT OF THE DAY?  

• INTERFERED WITH MY OPERATION FROM DAY ONE BY TELLING ME TO "HIRE TOM TO DO IT" (HIS LAW FIRM OFFICE MANAGER) TO NOT JUST BE MY BOOKKEEPER, BUT TO BE MY CONTROLLER?...  

• AS MR. PADUANO SAID ABOUT TOM: "WHOSE VIEWS ON HOW TO RUN YOUR BUSINESS ARE FAR DIFFERENT THAN YOURS" AND "THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT"... VIOLATING HIS OWN 286 LLC AGREEMENT TO NOT INTERFERE WITH MY EXCLUSIVE OPERATION OF MY BAR?

• PREVENTED ME FROM SIGNING A NEW LEASE OFFERED BY 'MY' LANDLORD?  TODD AND MY NAME WAS STILL ON THE LEASE SINCE 2015?  MR. PADUANO WAS NOT. 

• PREVENTED ME FROM OBTAINING PROPER INVESTORS THAT HE ASKED ME TO FIND WHEN HE WANTED "OUT"?

• REFUSED TO SEND HIS APPLICATION TO THE SLA AS INSTRUCTED BY CB7, AND INSTEAD JUST DROPPED THE BALL, NEVER TO PICK IT UP AGAIN.  ALL UNBEKNOWNST TO ME UNTIL HE CLEARLY ADMITTED IT ON NOVEMBER 12, 2014?   

• COULD NOT UNDERSTAND A ONE SENTENCE SIMPLE DIRECTIVE, TOLD TO HIM REPEATEDLY AND ON THE LIQUOR LICENSE ITSELF, PROMINENTLY STATING: "HAVE TO APPLY TO THE SLA FIRST BEFORE THE TRANSFER OF ANY AMOUNT OF STOCK IS TRANSFERRED?"

• FARCICALLY BLAMED ME BY CREATING THE FALSE NARRATIVE THAT 'I' WAS FIT AND ABLE TO CONTINUE TO DEFEAT HIS ENTIRE LAW FIRM, IN THEIR 'ALLEGED PURSUIT' OF THE ALL IMPORTANT LIQUOR LICENSE FOR EIGHTEEN MONTHS?  

• DID NOT MENTION HIS FAILURE TO APPLY FOR A LICENSE TO ME UNTIL NOVEMBER 12, 2014, WHEN IN HIS EMAIL, HE REMINISCED ABOUT IT.  AND THEN, STILL CONTINUED TO BREAK THE NEW YORK STATE AVAILING LAWS FOR MORE THAN A YEAR?  ...NEVER ONCE TRYING TO CORRECT HIS ILLEGAL POSITION?"

• DID NOT SEND ME CLEAR INSTRUCTIONS TO SIGN ANYTHING, OR HAVE ANY 'EMERGENCY' HOURLY FOLLOWUP EMAILS AS HE ALWAYS DID WHENEVER HE WANTED ANYTHING ELSE DONE? 

• HAD PREVENTED ME FROM RELINQUISHING THE ORIGINAL LAWSUIT BECAUSE THERE WAS "NOTHING IN IT FOR HIM?">

• REFUSED NEW INVESTORS' PROPOSALS OUT OF HAND THAT HE, HIMSELF, REQUESTED...FALSELY WRITNG:  "THEY WERE GOOD FOR (ME,)  BUT NOT FOR (HIM)"? >  

• HE COULD NOT SELL HIS STOCK BECAUSE HE REFUSED TO OWN ANY AND HELD NO LEGAL POSITION?

• WOULD NOT LET ME BUY HIS ALLEGED 51% OVER TIME BECAUSE HE WANTED TO SELL HIS MAJORITY CONTROL INTACT?  TO ANYBODY BUT ME?  BECAUSE HE DID NOT WANT ME TO EVER HAVE CONTROL OF IT, EVER.?

• WITHOUT MY KNOWLEDGE, CONFUSED MY TAX RECORDS FILING A FALSE 1065-K TAX RETURN TO THE IRS THAT I WAS A 49% SHAREHOLDER - WHILE HE PROLIFERATED THAT I WAS THE ONLY 100% SHAREHOLDER TO EVERY SINGLE OTHER ENTITY, GOVERNMENT OR OTHERWISE...PRECIPITATING A NYST&F UNIFORMED AGENT KNOCK ON MY APARTMENT DOOR IN JUNE 2016?

• DEFAMED ME WITH TOTAL FABRICATIONS TO RUTH AND ALL THAT WOULD LISTEN?

• TOTALLY DEMOLISHED THE SEVERAL HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLAR BUILDOUT THAT I HAD TO WORK 24/7 FOR OVER 4 YEARS TO PAY BACK TO MY INVESTORS - SO THAT I WOULD HAVE TO SPEND THE SAME CONSTRUCTION FEES TO REBUILD IT...AGAIN?

• CLOSING MY BAR AT THE BEGINNING OF THE BUSIEST SEASON THAT WOULD HAVE GENERATED PROFITS TO PAY OUTSTANDING BILLS, AS IS NORMAL IN THE INDUSTRY?

***HIS BELATED FALSE ACCUSATION (COMMUNICATED TO TODD, NOT ME) THAT I AM "TO BLAME" FOR ALL HIS UNETHICAL, IMMORAL, AND, INDEED, CRIMINAL CONDUCT - COMPRISES OF HIS 'SINGLE' HIDDEN AUGUST EMAIL ATTACHMENT THAT HE BELATEDLY POINTED TO ON NOVEMBER 12 , 2014 AS "PROOF" OF MY BAD WILL.  

...THE EMAIL HE SHOWED ME WAS NOT PROOF, IT DID NOT EVEN  *COPY* ME OR TODD.  THE EMAIL ONLY PROVED HE DID NOT.

***IN ANY EVENT, WOULD NOT ANY LAWYER SEND ME HOURLY REMINDER EMAILS UNTIL IT WAS SIGNED FOR SUCH AN EXISTENTIAL MATTER?

WHY WAS I DISRESPECTFULLY NOT EVEN COPIED ON ANY OF THE DOZEN EMAILS BETWEEN HIMSELF AND THE COMMUNITY BOARD, BEFORE AND AFTER AUGUST 8, 2014.  WHO, BY THE WAY, GAVE HIM THE SAME INSTRUCTIONS AS I DID.   MR. PADUANO DID NOT FOLLOW THEM, AND INSTEAD DROPPED THE BALL ENTIRELY.  

TODD AND I HAD NO KNOWLEDGE HE DROPPED THE BALL.   WHY DID HE NOT TELL US ABOUT IT WHILE WE WERE STILL NAIVLY TRYING TO MAKE THE BAR WORK?  (STUPIDLY THINKING HE WOULD COME TO HIS SENSES?).

BE THAT AS IT MAY, MR. PADUANO HAD ALREADY COMMITTED TOO MANY CRIMES TO EVER TURN BACK.  HIS PLAN REMAINED THE SAME:

• DUMP ALL LIABILITIES AND BANKRUPT W&R LLC IN ORDER TO RE-OPEN UNDER HIS STILL VIRGIN 286 LLC WITH HIS 100% OWNERSHIP.  CLEARLY PROVED BY THE PUBLIC NOTICE SIGN DISPLAYED. 

• DAILY, INTENTIONALLY INFLICT AS MUCH EMOTIONAL DISTRESS ON ME AS HE COULD MUSTER WITH OUTRIGHT FALSEHOODS.  FILE CLAIMS IN COURT TO BANKRUPT 'ME' FINANCIALLY, SO THE BAR WOULD NEVER FALL BACK INTO MY HANDS. 

• AND FINALLY, VINDICTIVELY DEMOLISH THE BAR DOWN TO ITS SUPPORT BEAMS TO ACCOMPLISH THAT GOAL WHEN THE LANDLORD REFUSED TO GIVE HIM A LEASE WITHOUT ME. 

MR. PADUANO CONSIDERED HIMSELF AN UNSTOPPABLE "SHARK."  HIS ONLY REQUEST WHEN HOSTING HIS LAW FIRM'S ANNUAL CHRISTMAS PARTIES WAS TO PLAY "SCARFACE" ON THE BAR'S TVs.  HIS LAW OFFICE INTERNET SERVER IS NAMED "BARRACUDA." 

***JUST THINK.  IF MR. PADUANO HAD SIMPLY LET ME HAVE MY BAR BACK AS HE PROMISED FOR 4 YEARS,  I WOULD HAVE BEEN ABLE TO CONTINUE MY SUCCESS, AND OPEN MORE BARS.  HE WOULD HAVE MADE MONEY.  HE WOULD NOT HAVE CAUSED EVERYBODY SO MUCH PAIN, INCLUDING HIMSELF.
