This document is a letter from Allan J. Arffa of Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison LLP to Hon. Anthony J. Carpinello, objecting to the request by Financial Trust Company, Inc. and Jeepers, Inc. to depose third-party witness Perry Gruss. The letter argues that the deposition is irrelevant to the central issue of the case, which concerns the withdrawal rights of FTC from the Fund, and that it would be a burdensome sideshow. It also states that the arbitrator lacks the authority to compel the deposition of a non-party under both Federal and New York law.
