Greater New York Mutual Insurance Company v. Subin Associates, LLP et al
Racketeer/Corrupt Organization | New York Eastern
Order on Motion to Amend/Correct/Supplement
ORDER. The motion at ECF No. 263 is denied. As to the opposition to the Plaintiff's counsel's request for an extension of the time to respond, the Court refers the parties to the Order entered today on the motion at ECF No. 262 . As to the request that the Court order Mr. Corey not to have contact the O'Hagan Meyer client directly, the Court finds the request to be moot as Mr. Corey's motion to withdraw has been granted so there is no longer a need for him to contact the client. As to the request that Mr. Corey not participate in this action directly, he is no longer a counsel of record so there is no reason that should occur, so the request is denied. As to Mr. Corey participating indirectly in this action, that may indeed happen if Defendant's counsel persists with this motion such that evidence from Mr. Corey becomes relevant, so the request is denied. As to communications between Mr. Corey and the Willis Law Group, all counsel are aware of their confidentiality obligations and there is no evidence in the record that they have violated them, so a prospective order is unnecessary. The Court does note, again, that should the motion to withdraw go forward, there may need to be communications between and among counsel, including Mr. Corey, so the request to limit his communications is denied. As to the preservation request, all counsel are aware of their obligations to preserve material related to matters before the Court, and there is no evidence in the record that any party or counsel will fail to preserve the record materials, so the request is denied.
The Court will mail a copy of this Order to Mr. Corey at the address on the motion to withdraw, ECF No. 258 (Greater New York Mutual): Alex D. Corey, Esq., 4747 Sheldon Street, Philadelphia, PA 19127. Ordered by Chief Mag. Judge Vera M. Scanlon on 7/8/2026. (SH)

Order on Motion for Extension of Time to File Response/Reply Order on Motion for Leave to File Status Report Order
ORDER. The motions at ECF Nos. 262 and 264 are denied as moot because Plaintiff's counsel filed the opposition to the motion to disqualify by June 5, 2026. See ECF No. 265 . The Court notes that had it ruled on the motion before the filing at ECF No. 265 was made just two days later, the Court likely would have granted the motion. To the extent that Plaintiff's counsel did not have sufficient time to prepare a complete response to the motions to disqualify, they may supplement the record by 7/14/2026.
The Court does not find Defendants' counsel's letter at ECF No. [263 ] to be persuasive or reasonable. The matter is not nearly as urgent as Defendants' counsel suggested, given that counsel may have been aware of the alleged impending conflict as early as May 18th, but Defendants' counsel did not file the letter motion to disqualify until June 2nd, see ECF No. 260 . Of note, Defendants' counsel complains about Mr. Corey communicating with the client, but according to Plaintiff's counsel, Mr. Corey's Willis Law Group employment had been terminated before the June 2nd filing at ECF No. 260 . If this timeline is correct, Defendants' counsel's complaint is with their own former employee, who was still listed as counsel of record, rather than with Plaintiffs' counsel for whom he no longer worked. And even then, it is unclear from the present record whether Mr. Corey should not have contacted O'Hagan Meyer or the client because in order to make the motion to withdraw, he was obliged to see out their position on the withdrawal. According to Mr. Corey's declaration in support of his motion to withdraw, neither O'Hagan Meyer nor the client responded to his inquiries about the motion to withdraw. See ECF No. 258 -1, Para. 7. Thus, the factual record relevant to this motion is complex, and there was no reasonable basis upon which Defendants' counsel opposed the brief extension requested by Plaintiff's counsel. Counsel are reminded that they are expected to communicate with each other and work cooperatively on this case. They are expected to extend to each other reasonable profession courtesies.
