was my client's request, Emily Nae`ole's request. So we are asking you to set <br />a date for testimony, if that's where you're going with this, because I, too—we <br />would hope that you would— there's a lot more involved here than this just <br />being an informal process. There are allegations that were made to me on <br />behalf of my client, about this being —there being some kind of employer - <br />employee relationship that can have legal ramifications. So Iin an <br />abundance of caution, I need to be careful about proceeding any further in that <br />area until we get a clearing of some sort about where this is going. So that's <br />why, one of the reasons why, I suggested that we come here. With regard to <br />the allegations, most of what is stated we have briefly read, because I just got it <br />this morning —early this morning, the additional stuff that Mr. Pranke may or <br />may not have been aware of But we have read it.

And if it is in the matter of the public domain at this <br />moment, then my client has a right not only to say that those allegations are <br />scurrilous, but to point out to you and the public the <br />CHAIR: --absolutely— <br />LEE LOY: --credibility— <br />CHAIR: -- absolutely, but not in this forum at this time, until we have decided whether <br />or not we want to pursue this— <br />CHAIR: - -I see <br />CHAIR: -- formal investigation. I know where you're headed. I know what you're <br />about to read —I've seen it myself, when someone anonymously emailed that <br />to me. And I don't think this is the proper time to discuss this right now. <br />LEE LOY: Well, okay. <br />CHAIR: How I would like to move on this- <br />12 <br />
