SDNY COURTHOUSE, August 18 – In a case that has been pending for 21 years, H.M.S. Hussar, Inc. sued "The Unidentified, Wrecked, and Abandoned Sailing Vessel."      

    On August 18, U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York Judge Loretta A. Preska held a proceeding. Inner City Press called in, identified itself, and covered it.  

 A man who identified himself as Captain Rob called in as well.

So too a man who reminisced about Judge Preska having put the litigants into her jury room to work it out. (Inner City Press previously witnessed this in Judge Preska's Argentina case).  

 Then, the speaker said, his adversary disappeared, into the Bronx. Now there are questions about the partnership: the Board Members "have no access to the corporate books... This has stymied the recovery / salvage efforts of the wreck."

  Judge Preska acted to try to get the 21-year-old case to stop drifting.

 It is H.M.S. Hussar, Inc. v. The Unidentified, 00-cv-121 (Preska)
