Isaac Pollak LGP Ltd. - Requested To Attend Court

Isaac Pollak is president of LGP Ltd. at 10 west 46st is requested to attend court as he took 291000.00 interest on 250000.00. A statement of position has been published by Bais Ha Vaad Rabbinical Court.

Here is as it says:

We, members of the Bais Ha Vaad Rabbinical Court (“Beis Din”), were approached by Menachem Mendel a/k/a Mendy Pollak (hereinafter “Claimant”), who claimed that Yitzchak Meir a/k/a Isaac Pollak (hereinafter “Respondent”) owes him money on an account that he had transferred a perfume enterprise to him in lieu of loan, on the condition that he would receive twenty percent (20%) of the profits, and according to the clamant there were large profits but none of it was ever received.

 

The claimant further claimed that he had transferred an enterprise in lieu of debt on the condition that he would receive ten percent (10%) of profits. According to Claimant, there were large profits, but he never received any part of them.

 

The claimant further claimed that the Respondent in a separate proceeding wrongfully collected the paid debt with interest. The claimant appealed to the Beis Din for the purpose of summoning the Respondent to resolve this matter before a Halachic Court.

 

The respondent was summoned by the Beis Din, and he responded that he would only appear if a litany of unusual and, in part, bizarre conditions were met. For Illustrating example, Respondent stipulated that the Claimant “deposit… the full amount that is claimed by him in an escrow account” [emphasis ours] to be disbursed in accordance with the Beis Din’s decision. He also contrived his own limitations on what evidence would be admissible in the proceedings. When it was explained to the respondent in a letter and subsequently over the phone, that he has the halachic duty to respond to the summons unconditionally and, whereas he and the Claimant are free to reach any agreements between themselves, the final arbiter on the matter pertaining to proceedings in Beis Din, such as the admissibility of evidence, will be the Shulchan Aruch, the Respondent replied, “In that case, I will not be coming to Beis Din.”

 

It has since been more than three years, and the Respondent has been warned repeatedly, but the Respondent maintains his recalcitrant demeanor.

 

We, therefore, state our position at this time that it is prohibited for the Respondent to continue delaying or evading litigating this matter, it is incumbent on the Respondent to cease his contempt and appear with the Claimant before a Bais Din. He shall therefore litigate this matter before a Bais Din without further ado, and if he believes he is halachically exempted from doing so for any reason, he shall present his reason/so to the Beis Din for consideration, so this matter shall finally be resolved, and peace be thus restored.

 

Signed on the Eighteenth Day of Adar II, 5782 (March 21, 2022).

 

On behalf of Beis Din,

Attached is the photocopy as a proof.
