Erika Jayne is off the hook, at least in Illinois.
Jayne's attorney Evan Borges released his own statement on Saturday praising the court's decision and further defending his client.
"While Edelson retains the right to re-fie in California, the dismissal of Erika from the federal lawsuit that triggered bankruptcies of Girardi Keese and Tom Girardi is extremely important," he said."For example, the recent three-day evidentiary hearing in the Boeing case showed that Erika had ZERO role in what GK and Edelson discussed, did, and didn't do, whether as between each other or as to their clients.
He continued,"I'd like to see Edelson and everyone else take the high road going forward and not make accusations against Erika without evidence. We want Edelson to get the most complete picture of the evidence as possible, and have no issue with further investigation. But the truth matters.
In October 2018, a domestic flight operated by the Indonesian airline Lion Air crashed into the Java Sea after takeoff, killing all 189 passengers and crew on board. In the, filed in December 2020, Giardi, 82, and Jayne, 50, were accused of embezzling $2 million from a Boeing 737 Max airplane crash settlement fund. Girardi's firm represented nearly a dozen families in the litigation and Edelson was brought on as local counsel to assist in the settlement process.
"By all accounts, Girardi keeps engaging in fraud and deception in order to support a never-ending spending spree by himself and Jayne," the lawsuit stated."as simply sham attempt to fraudulently protect Tom and Erika's money from those that seek to collect on debts owed by Tom and his law firm GK."
