Fotis Dulos won't say how attorneys are being paid
A judge has sided with Fotis Dulos, ruling this week that his company will not have to undergo a review of business finances as part of the $2.5 million lawsuits filed against him by his mother-in-law.
Hartford Superior Court Judge Cesar Noble issued the ruling Tuesday, one day after attorney William Murray, representing Fotis Dulos, filed an objection to the inspection.

JDNO NOTICE
ORDER REGARDING:
08/20/2019 198.00 OBJECTION RE DISCOVERY OR DISCLOSURE
The foregoing, having been considered by the Court, is hereby:
ORDER: OVERRULED
The court overrules all objections as follows:
Request for Production #4. The objection is overruled. The disclosure of the financial statements sought is reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible evidence as they may contain information relevant to how the defendant, Fotis Dulos and/or Fore Group, characterized funds obtained from Hilliard Farber, i.e., whether as loans or gifts, and/or evidence relevant to the third count of the complaint asserting a claim to pierce the corporate veil as the statements may show signs of commingling of funds. Prac. Book § 13-2. Finally, any interest in the confidentiality of the records, sealed or not, is over ridden by the requirements of disclosure in this civil action.
Request for Production #5. The objection is overruled. The disclosure of expense reimbursements documentation is reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible evidence as relevant to the allegations of the third count seek to pierce the corporate veil of Fore Group Inc. and its predecessor companies.
