Well Done. I'm tracking... Thank You.

The case manager notified me that the judge cut some of your fees for the time you waited to testify. They did the same thing with me when I was waiting for the verdict. The difference between your claim ($14,631.70) and what you were paid ($12,092.80) is $2538.90. They specifically denied your rental car claim because their position is that you could have stayed downtown. I recall asking you to stay in Dearborn because it was more convenient for me. Your rental car costs were $618.62. I have decided to pick up those costs since you rented the car based on information I provided you. I subtracted the amount of the rental car from the amount we advanced you and came up with $6813.08. If you would please send us a check in that amount made out to “Puckett and Faraj, PC” to our Virginia address: Puckett and Faraj PC 1800 Diagonal Road Suite 210 Alexandria, VA 22314 Thank you for your help on this case. I look forward to connecting with you soon, perhaps next month when I’ll be in CA for most of the month. Best to you Haytham Hi Haytham, The check was for $12,092.80. Let me know if you need me to send you a scanned copy of the check. I did not know that we made additional payments to you. The amount we're owed is actually more than that. But I also know you did not receive all you are entitled to. The court reduced the amount I submitted on your behalf. Let me know what they sent you and I'll calculate the amount you owe us. I hope all's well with you Hi Haytham, yes, the check arrived a week ago.
This is the email which I found that discusses the refund to you. Please look at the forwarded email below. This is the amount I found below: "Of that amount we are entitled to $2391.70". I just wanted to confirm this is correct, and whether I should send a check to the DC or Detroit office? Ibrahim ---------- Forwarded message ----------

Dear Ibrahim, I discovered yesterday that I had been handling paying you incorrectly. I was required to have you complete a form called a CJA 21 that would allow you submit directly to the court for compensation. I had assumed that we would be reimbursed if we present invoices for payments. That was wrong. I need to resubmit your fees and expenses. I had Mariam fill out the forms for you. I am attaching them to this email. I need you to review and sign them. I will then take them to the accounting department here and submit them for you. I request that once you get paid you refund the payment we made to you. Those will be a payment of $3000 and a payment of $2040. Your final payment for the trial work is going to be $8,841.70. Of that amount we are entitled to $2391.70 for expenses that we paid you on February 2, 2011. Please sign and date the forms I have attached here and return them to me. Thank you Haytham Faraj, Esq.
