ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE WHY PLAINTIFF'S APPLICATION FOR ORDER DIRECTING TURNOVER OF WATCHES, AUDI, AND PROCEEDS OF PROPERTY SUBJECT TO LIEN SHOULD NOT BE GRANTED
Re: ECF No. 347
LAUREL BEELER, Magistrate Judge.
The court assumes the reader's familiarity with the subject matter and procedural history of this case.1 Briefly stated, defendant Gregory Shenkman owes plaintiff Forreststream Holdings Ltd. more than $5.3 million on the judgment in this case.2 Mr. Shenkman has not made any payments toward this judgment in the more than twenty months since judgment was entered.3 Following months of Mr. Shenkman's stonewalling Forreststream's attempts to take discovery of his assets and Mr. Shenkman's defiance of court orders to comply with his discovery obligations, Forreststream recently was able to review certain documents of Mr. Shenkman's.4 Forreststream states that these documents suggest that Mr. Shenkman has been knowingly concealing assets from Forreststream, has been lying under oath about what assets he has, and may be fraudulently transferring assets in order to frustrate Forreststream's efforts to collect on its judgment.5 Forreststream asks the court to enter an order directing Mr. Shenkman to turn over to the U.S. Marshal certain wristwatches, an Audi automobile, and proceeds from property subject to Forreststream's lien.
The court orders Mr. Shenkman (together with his counsel) to personally appear before the court on January 2, 2019, at 3:00 p.m., and show cause why Forreststream's application for an order directing turnover should not be granted. The court further orders Mr. Shenkman to show cause why he should not be further sanctioned for noncompliance with the court's orders that he respond to Forreststream's discovery requests (orders that inherently require Mr. Shenkman to respond honestly and truthfully, and not perjuriously). If Mr. Shenkman wants to file any written response to Forreststream's application, he must do so by December 31, 2018, at noon. Forreststream may then file any written reply by January 2, 2019, at noon.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
