Subj: RE: [kl] Legal situation re Bass Clarinet
Date: Tue, 31 Oct 2000 09:04:54 -0500

Hi Folks,

It is true that my father is a (retired) attorney. But he practices in Ohio,
and does not claim to be any kind of expert in property law. Therefore all
legal advice is appreciated.

As for the situation, this is how I would like to resolve it: A close friend
of mine is in dire need of a better bass clarinet. If I can get this dude to
sell me mine back for a few hundred more than he paid for it (hopefully,
after all your harassment, including a phone call today from one of the
world's leading bass clarinet virtuosos, he's be happy to have this over), my
friend can then sell his (possibly to one of the ebay bidders, who wrote me
telling me of HIS need to upgrade to a better horn) and pay me whatever he
makes on his. Whatever 'profit' I make on the sale will go to two charities
(Interlochen Arts Center and the Toledo Symphony).

This is assuming that my insurance companies take no interest. So far, they
have returned none of my phone calls so I believe that this course of action
may be possible. I will have to have an attorney talk to the insurance
companies first and get a release from them allowing me to do this.

At that point, I will contact "Jim" and inform him of the offer. If he still
declines, I believe the letter writing should continue, but perhaps with
greater vehemence.

By the way, any of you associated with music stores, etc. should inform them
that there may be a guy out there trying to unload a bass clarinet. I don't
want this guy to be able t o get rid of this thing. And try to tell every
clarinet player out there as well.

Thank you all for your amazing support.
