her
clerk in
orchestrating
court
hearings to deprive
Weberman
of

III.
Damages
When
the
default was first requested,
damageswere
difficult to ascertain, as
there
had
not
been a loss of any
particular
client. Since
that
time, a
career
changing client hasbeen lost. In
September
2009, Plaintiff
obtained
preliminary
work
from a
new
client.
That
client
is
involved
in
considerable litigation
and spends upwards of
$1,000,000
per
year
onlegal fees. Plaintiff's
work
was confidential, behind
the
scenes,
and
private from the initialengagement.Supplemental Points and Authorities

In
January 2010, the work was still confidential
but
starting
to
increase. Plaintiffwas negotiating a "ramp-up" of
work
to
fill
all available time
at
the
rate
of
$400.00
per
hour.
That
ramp-up" was expected for April 2010, which would allow for
the
disposition
ortransfer
of
matters
at
lower billing rates. The difference would have been a minimumincrease
of
$25,000
per
month for
at
least 3 to 5 years. Plaintiff was looking
at
additionalincome of $900,000 to $1,500,000 over
the
next 3 to 5 years.
1
That work
terminated
in
February 2010. Plaintiff was attempting to do an interview
of
a prospective witness, and
the witness
refused to speak with Plaintiff because he saw
Mr.
Weberman's web page.Plaintiff lost
the
client almost immediately thereafter.While a monetary judgment
of
$1,175,289.25 would be nice to obtain, an injunctionwould
be
the more meaningful solution. The defamation continues to
be worse
and worse,expanding
it
scope and depravity.
The
new iteration of
theweb
page is attached hereto asExhibit
"1."
Plaintiff has received horrified calls from family members
(mother
and sister),friends and clients asking
about
the information on
the
web site.
To
make matters worse, it
is
likely
that
Mr.
Weberman himself has created
some or
all of
the
alleged third-partycontent. For example, the
"BONDAGE"
site
asserts
that
GaryK91364
is
from "BritishColumbia."
Mr.
Weberman once shared
the
same lawyer as
Mr.
Lubymer Prytulak (againstwhom Plaintiff has a $250,000 defamation judgment), who is from Vancouver (BritishColumbia), Canada. It
is
possible
that these
two defamers have conspired, and this
is
justone
example.

Assuming a
5%
discount (interest) rate,
thepresent
value is a range of$777,453.84 to $1,175,289.25.
