		<description>I do have 2 questions Mr. Grossman.

Why if your client HCCA has been touting we have been making money over months and months that we are so broke that he camt pay vendors, MDs, and staff?

Why dosen&#039;t your firm force HCCA to open the books, have an independent audit?

I can probably answer that.

1. To the first question, we havent been making money for a long time. Further, HCCA put Southern Inyo into the same boat as we are. I&#039;m sure that our money has been supporting them. Remember, since you are legal counsel, you are subject to penalties, and you are an officer of the court. Are you sure you want to put yourself in jeopardy?

2. HCCA has been a fraud from the start. By now, the tower should have been completed, hospital should have been in the positive, and this hospital should be thriving. But, as we see, you still have not produced financials. This means there is sketchy money issues.

Mr. Grossman, show the people the books uncooked and be truthful.</description>

		<description>Here is where we stand today, Wednesday. 

Threats of not paying us employees, MDs, and other vital staff.

Thats all that needs to be said.

Again, we stay because the community needs this hospital. The employees care. 

I am making a suggestion right now.

We, the Employees of HCCA, shall seek legal counsel for a Class Action Lawsuit against HCCA for failure to pay employees as perscribed by their policy. Further, employeea then also file with Department of Labor and Standards Enforcement to make sure to fine him for everyday he is late. It is a $100 fine for each employee not paid. So lets say there is 500 employees, do the math.

Dr. BENZEEVI, YOU HAVE CREATED A MESS. AND YOU HAVE MADE YOUR EMPLOYEES PAY FOR YOUR MISTAKES. DO NOT BLAME THIS CURRENT BOARD. THEY ARE TRYING TO SAVE THIS HOSPITAL FOR THE PEOPLE.

If there is a local legal Attourney willing to assist the employees in this matter, please leave info. I will rally the troops and we will get this done. We can not have anymore delays in pay.

To the community, we will continue our best to serve you. We are here for you, and the Board is currently doing their do diligence to fix this issue. Please stand fast with us. 

Thank you.</description>

		<description>July 10, 2017: Hospital is showing record revenue &#038; profit.

July 12, 2017: Hospital does not have money to pay employees. 

Where did the money go? 

We demand to see the books. 

We will petition the governor. He cannot ignore 500 signatures.</description>

		<description>My paycheck comes from HCCA. While TRMC may be responsible to HCCA to cover payroll, HCCA alone is responsible for paying its employees. We are after all IT&#039;S employees not TRMCs. If HCCA didn&#039;t want that responsibility they should have left the employees as employees of TRMC. But greed said that they could charge 30% for benefits and by cutting employee benefits they could pocket the difference. More profit. It didn&#039;t benefit the employees to work for HCCA, the benefit all belonged to HCCA. It was a gamble but greed won out and now he and HCCA are responsible to pay employees. The state gives 7 business days from the end of the pay period for a busi ess to pay employees. So if we are not paid by Saturday night i hope all feel free to file a complaint with the state of California. I will.</description>

Kumar didn&#039;t want to be replaced as equally bad as I am sure Benny didn&#039;t want him to be. Probably why all the reports of big Shred-It trucks. 

The question is will Benzeevi come clean on who his partners are or will he continue to stand as the lone principal of HCCA?</description>
