Lawyers Fight Freedman Case Ahead of Court

October 5, 2015 by Marion Maneker

Ann Freedman

The lawyers in the Ann Freedman case cannot wait until they get into a courtroom to have it out. In response to our posting of John Cahill’s comment, Ann Freedman’s lawyer, Luke Nikas sent us this comment:

“The criminals who committed these crimes have been charged.  Ann Freedman is not one of them.  The discovery in these cases has yielded tens of thousands of pages of documents.  Not one proves that Ann Freedman knew these works were forgeries.  It is the plaintiffs’ self-serving fairy tale that has allowed the case to continue for this long, but a trial will finally show the truth:  plaintiffs just want to print money (their lawsuits request three times more than what they paid for the art), and Ann Freedman just wants justice.”
