1 (Thereupon, the following proceedings

2 were had:)

3 THE COURT: Good morning.

4 MR. KELLER, III: Good morning, your

5 Honor. John Keller of Keller & Mesa on behalf

6 of First American Bank.

7 MR. SCHNEIDER: Good morning. Larry

8 Schneider on behalf of myself.

9 THE COURT: And for the court reporter,

10 if at any time you're having any difficulty

11 hearing any of the participants, please

12 interrupt.

13 THE COURT REPORTER: I will. Thank you,

14 your Honor.

15 THE COURT: You're welcome.

16 The hearing is on First American Bank's

17 motion to compel compliance with the Court's

18 June 23rd order.

19 MR. KELLER, III: If I may, your Honor.

20 THE COURT: Yes, you may. Thank you.

21 MR. KELLER, III: Judge, first I need to

22 note for the record that only Lawrence Schneider

23 has made an appearance. There are two

24 defendants pro se in this case, Laurence

25 Schneider and Stephanie Schneider. Am I

JEANNIE REPORTING (305) 577-1705


4

1 correct, Mr. Schneider, that Stephanie Schneider

2 is not appearing today?

3 MR. SCHNEIDER: She is supposed to.

4 She's in Indiana taking my son to school, but

5 she's not on the call. I -- I'm here, so, yeah,

6 I don't think she entered an appearance, I think

7 by default, but honestly I'm still new with all

8 this, so let's just continue on. I don't know

9 the answer to that legally.

10 THE COURT: Mr. Schneider, you're

11 representing yourself right now?

12 MR. SCHNEIDER: Right.

13 THE COURT: And your wife,

14 Mrs. Schneider, is representing herself as well,

15 so today's hearing was properly noticed and you

16 are present so you may represent yourself during

17 the hearing, but not your wife.

18 Mr. Keller, you may proceed.

19 MR. KELLER, III: Thank you, your Honor.

20 Judge, as a preliminary matter, the property was

21 foreclosed and the certificate of title has been

22 issued now to First American Bank. And may I

23 ask your Honor if your division is currently

24 conducting writs of possession?

25 THE COURT: Is issuing writs of

JEANNIE REPORTING (305) 577-1705


5

1 possession?

2 MR. KELLER, III: Yes, issuing orders

3 for writs of possession.

4 THE COURT: Yes.

5 MR. KELLER, III: Okay, thank you.

6 Judge, we're --

7 THE COURT: Let me just, there are

8 certain exceptions, but the answer is yes,

9 right.

10 MR. KELLER, III: And I understand we

11 still have to file a motion. I just wanted to

12 make sure there wasn't a blanket cessation of

13 writs of possession.

14 THE COURT: No, we're following the

15 administrative orders of the Florida Supreme

16 Court and we're also following the other

17 legislation as it relates to residential

18 evictions. So there are, you know, there are

19 exceptions of course.

20 MR. KELLER, III: Understood.

21 THE COURT: But there's no blanket

22 prohibition.

23 MR. KELLER, III: Thank you, your Honor.

24 Judge, your order dated June 23rd set deadlines

25 preliminary to us participating in an

JEANNIE REPORTING (305) 577-1705


6

1 evidentiary hearing on First American Bank's

2 motions for fees, costs and expenses. And at

3 the time that order was entered, the Schneiders

4 were represented by counsel. The order set

5 deadlines and the deadline required First

6 American Bank to have provided the identity of

7 our expert as well as the provision of all of

8 our billing invoices to the Schneiders and we

9 did that before their counsel withdrew.

10 We further discussed with Attorney

11 Wyman, representing the Schneiders, on July 2nd

12 the need for compliance with the deadlines. He

13 affirmed that he was aware of those deadlines

14 and that the efforts were being made to comply

15 with them.

16 On July 15th, your Honor granted the

17 Schneiders' counsel's motions to withdraw and

18 the lawyers representing the Schneiders and

19 their law firms were excused from the

20 representation and granted leave to withdraw.

21 Again on July 16th, Judge, we provided

22 the identification of First American Bank's

23 expert, Scott Hawkins. And that's not news

24 because as you know, Scott Hawkins has been the

25 expert witness on fees in this case and

JEANNIE REPORTING (305) 577-1705


7

1 participated in the prior two-day evidentiary

2 hearing.

3 And in addition, we confirmed that all

4 the billing invoices have been provided to

5 defendant's counsel and had been filed with the

6 Court and they're available off the Court's

7 docket as well.

8 By August 5th the Schneiders were

9 required to provide us with line-by-line

10 objections pursuant to your order, as well as

11 the identity of their expert. They have not

12 done so.

13 And today was the day that your Honor

14 set for us conducting -- it's not really a

15 mediation, but it's the meeting to require the

16 experts, counsel for the parties and the parties

17 in order to streamline, if you will, the

18 evidentiary hearing. And so that was to occur

19 today. No arrangements could be made to do that

20 today because the defendant's failures to comply

21 with your Honor's order prevents us from

22 discussing their specific objection, prevents us

23 from jointly preparing and submitting the report

24 by August 31st, which was also required by the

25 Court order and there's no ability to narrow the

JEANNIE REPORTING (305) 577-1705


8

1 issues.

2 So, Judge, we're asking that you please

3 enter an order today that requires them to

4 comply with Your honor's order again and to

5 provide the line item objections and the experts

6 by August 26th, that if they're compliant with

7 that, that we conduct the meeting required by

8 September 2nd and that the joint report be

9 required by September 10th. Failing which, if

10 they don't comply with any one of these stages,

11 that the sanctions that you iterated in your

12 initial order take place to where their

13 objections will be barred to the billing

14 statements, they will not be allowed to call

15 witnesses and they will not be able to submit

16 exhibit. And that concludes my discussion.

17 THE COURT: Mr. Schneider, you may

18 respond.

19 MR. SCHNEIDER: Okay. So I don't even

20 understand a couple of the things that Mr.

21 Keller was asking for. I did understand that my

22 attorneys withdrew and I was present at that

23 hearing. And actually I had an e-mail from Mr.

24 Wyman a few weeks before that, telling us that,

25 you know, that the foreclosure is on August 3rd

JEANNIE REPORTING (305) 577-1705


9

1 unless it gets extended by the developer. So as

2 you know, you allowed them to withdraw on

3 July 15th and, not being an attorney and trying

4 to make heads or toes of this, we were relieved

5 that we had a little more time to try to get all

6 of this together. And like we said, we were

7 surprised that this went to sale, based on Mr.

8 Wyman's prior e-mail before he withdrew.

9 They had done, both Wyman and Rodman had

10 done all the prior work on this. I'm not

11 familiar with the sanctions part and basically

12 we're trying to figure out just exactly what

13 we're supposed to do, not even, I mean, I'm

14 trying to get an attorney and quite honestly

15 I've spoken to a few attorneys and they actually

16 advised me that former counsel had been

17 threatened with sanctions a few times.

18 I actually just found that former

19 attorney for Keller & Bolz, Henry Bolz, filed a

20 bar complaint against another attorney that I

21 had in the federal case. And quite frankly, the

22 few people I spoke to, I'm getting some

23 information to understand, but no one yet is

24 willing to even step into this case. And again,

25 you know, it's obviously been chaotic at my

JEANNIE REPORTING (305) 577-1705


10

1 house because all of this came as a surprise.

2 Especially the sale.

3 So we're just in total free fall here

4 and I don't understand what's even to do. I

5 wasn't pro se during all of the first attorney

6 hearings, but I was advised that -- well, and I

7 attended the trial, that Attorney Bolz had filed

8 several notices of unavailability and he was

9 going to be out of the country. That actually

10 wasn't -- you didn't recall --

11 THE COURT: Mr. Schneider --

12 MS. GLEASON: Your Honor, we're over

13 time.

14 THE COURT: I understand.

15 MR. SCHNEIDER: I don't understand what

16 I'm supposed to do.

17 THE COURT: So the reason I'm

18 interrupting you is to answer that question.

19 MR. SCHNEIDER: Okay.

20 THE COURT: So I'm looking at your court

21 file on the computer. Your first point of

22 reference that tells you what to do is the

23 June 23, 2020 amended order setting the

24 plaintiff First American Bank's motion for

25 assessment of attorney's fees and costs and

JEANNIE REPORTING (305) 577-1705


11

1 expenses on the calendar period September 14th

2 to October 9th.

3 In this June 23, 2020 order it sets

4 forth what each party is supposed to do as it

5 relates to preparation for the attorney's fee

6 hearing that will be conducted during that

7 period of time, September 14th to October 9th.

8 So for example, first step was for the

9 Plaintiff First American Bank to produce the

10 billing worksheets that they are seeking time

11 for, okay. And then the next step -- and also

12 disclosing -- well, then the next step is for

13 the responding party to set forth specific

14 objections to the time entries and so on.

15 It's a detailed order, two pages in

16 content, that sets forth the deadlines. Where

17 we are right now is that your, the nonmoving

18 party, the party objecting to the fees, you're

19 required to provide line item legal objections

20 to the extent you have objections to the fees.

21 So that's what needs to be done. And

22 then you also, if you're going to be retaining

23 an expert to oppose the fees, then you need to

24 disclose who that is.

25 So I'm going to -- and I understand you

JEANNIE REPORTING (305) 577-1705


12

1 are attempting to obtain an attorney. I note

2 that your former attorney Mr. Wyman, he filed

3 his motion to withdraw on July 7th and then we

4 had the hearing on July 15th when the withdrawal

5 occurred. So we're now one month from that

6 time, it's now August 20th -- well, we're less

7 than a month out until when you can be called

8 for the fee hearing.

9 This is what I'm going to do. I'm

10 extending the time -- now you need to get a copy

11 of, if you don't have your file, but you need to

12 get a copy of the June 23, 2020 order that tells

13 you what to do to prepare for the fee hearing.

14 That's number one.

15 You'll have an extension of time to

16 provide your objections. And it's not just, I

17 object to their billing, the billing is

18 excessive, for example. I'm not saying that's

19 true or false. It's just you can't give a

20 general objection. It has to be specific.

21 Your prior attorney, Mr. Wyman, did a

22 very organized job in addressing specific

23 objections and so you presumably have the copies

24 of that and you were present for the prior fee

25 hearing, so that's a point of reference on how

JEANNIE REPORTING (305) 577-1705


13

1 to address this.

2 MR. SCHNEIDER: Well, I don't have --

3 THE COURT: I'm extending the time for

4 your compliance to the following dates. I'm

5 going to push out the dates to the following,

6 this case would be subject to call starting

7 October 1st for that, just in October, and you

8 will comply with the order by -- you'll give

9 your specific objections by September 8th and at

10 the same time disclose who your expert is, if

11 you're going to have an expert.

12 MR. SCHNEIDER: Is there a way that we

13 can get this, there's hundreds of redactions. I

14 did, you know, I tried to do a little bit of

15 work to try to see what I could understand on my

16 own. Obviously, I don't know if you've seen it

17 yet --

18 THE COURT: To the extent you can object

19 to it on that basis. If you're saying that the

20 redaction is a problem and that there's not an

21 adequate description of what occurred in order

22 for them to be -- in order for the other side

23 to -- if that's a concern or an objection, then

24 you can raise that and specifically objecting to

25 that time entry.

JEANNIE REPORTING (305) 577-1705


14

1 So we're on the UMC right now and I do,

2 as my JA has indicated, we do have a number of

3 cases still to call, but let me just stay on

4 task. Right now where I'm at is that the

5 nonmovant, the Schneiders, will have until

6 September 8th to provide the specific

7 objections, disclose your expert witness.

8 Next, the parties will have a conference

9 on the fees by September 18th and then the joint

10 report will be provided to the Court by

11 September 30th. And if I provided a date that

12 is not a business day, then the ordinary course

13 is the next business day.

14 MR. SCHNEIDER: I don't see any way I

15 can possibly do this, especially given that I

16 have to now find a place to move because of the

17 foreclosure. And can I get an order of some

18 sort that requires my prior counsel to provide

19 me the file and anything else they have?

20 THE COURT: If you're having an issue

21 with that, you can communicate with your prior

22 attorney on that. The court file you can obtain

23 if you need -- confer with your attorney. Your

24 attorney has withdrawn now so I don't have the

25 authority to do that.

JEANNIE REPORTING (305) 577-1705


15

1 MR. SCHNEIDER: I know they've done a

2 lot of work and I paid them a lot of money and

3 without having that file, I really don't have a

4 point of reference to even --

5 THE COURT: So confer with your

6 attorney, confer with your prior attorney, make

7 your requests. And if that's an issue, then you

8 will need to come back in terms of if you need

9 further time. But right now, this hearing has

10 been set since June for the September to October

11 docket. I understand your attorney withdrew in

12 July, so I'm extending the deadlines out for

13 you. But we do need to --

14 MS. GLEASON: Your Honor, we need to

15 move on. It's 20 minutes.

16 THE COURT: Brenda, I'm not finished.

17 We need to reach a resolution on this case. We

18 have to reach a resolution on this case and we

19 need to stay on task. So this deadline has been

20 substantially extended. If you're having

21 further issues, you'll need to file the

22 appropriate motion for enlargement of time and I

23 will consider it.

24 MR. SCHNEIDER: What are the sanctions?

25 THE COURT: All right. So it's in the

JEANNIE REPORTING (305) 577-1705


16

1 order. It's in the order, it's in capital

2 letters, and it applies to both sides, both

3 sides. "Noncompliance with any portion of this

4 order may result in the striking of the case,

5 witnesses or exhibits or imposition of such

6 other sanctions as are just."

7 That is the language and it applies to

8 both sides in terms of noncompliance.

9 MR. SCHNEIDER: And the date you're

10 giving is September 8th. So there's no way I'm

11 going to be able to comply with that. So I

12 guess --

13 THE COURT: Let me ask Mr. Keller, I

14 don't have the billing sheets in front of me.

15 We're not talking about -- exactly how many

16 pages of billing sheets are we talking about?

17 MR. KELLER, III: Your Honor, it's about

18 on the same order as the last hearing we had, so

19 it is significant, there are a number of pages.

20 THE COURT: Oh, I haven't seen that.

21 MR. SCHNEIDER: It's 1,000 entries,

22 2,000?

23 THE COURT: All right, Mr. Schneider,

24 you're right, this is what I'm going to do. I

25 didn't have an appreciation for the breadth of

JEANNIE REPORTING (305) 577-1705


17

1 the billing records and what you would be

2 addressing. This is the Court's order.

3 I'm moving you to the October to

4 November docket and a new order with new

5 deadlines will be addressed. And they will all

6 be cued by the October to November deadline.

7 That's the fairest, given the breadth of the

8 billing that's been provided.

9 Do you have the billing?

10 MR. SCHNEIDER: Well, yeah, I saw them

11 online. I tried to start working with it, but

12 it's heavily redacted.

13 THE COURT: Mr. Schneider, your request

14 for additional time is granted. I'm setting you

15 for the October to November period on the

16 nonjury docket. And the new deadlines will be

17 calculated by the new setting and that will give

18 you enough time.

19 MR. SCHNEIDER: Okay. So September 8th

20 is no longer the deadline for a hearing?

21 THE COURT: No, don't worry about that.

22 MR. SCHNEIDER: All right. Thank you

23 very much, Judge.

24 THE COURT: You're welcome. Because of

25 the breadth of the requests and what is being

JEANNIE REPORTING (305) 577-1705


18

1 addressed, it is fair to extend the time to

2 provide the requisite specific objections, so

3 I'm moving this case to the October to November

4 docket and you'll get the new order following

5 today.

6 MR. SCHNEIDER: Thank you, Judge.

7 THE COURT: You will comply with the

8 order and we do need to, as I stated before, we

9 do need to a reach final resolution of this

10 case. This is the last -- well, this is the

11 only pending motion at this point. If there are

12 other motions that get filed, then we will

13 address them as they come.

14 You all have a good rest of the day.

15 You will be receiving an order following today

16 from me with the order resetting the case for

17 the October to November docket with the new

18 deadlines. So the motion is compel compliance

19 is granted in part. There will be compliance.

20 The enlargement of time is granted

21 because I am resetting you to October to

22 November, given the breadth of the issue.

23 MR. SCHNEIDER: Okay.

24 Thank you, Judge.

25 MR. KELLER, III: Thank you, your Honor.
