As I understand taxes, this is a payment, a check we wrote to Dr. Al-Marashi - the check from the Federal court was to the Law Firm. The Federal court can ask us for a W-9 and issue us a 1099 for the total paid on Hamama. The Federal court reimbursement doesn't have Dr. Al-Marashi's name on the check.
In the same way, the payment Dodd is going to make for that settlement will be a payment to us he will submit a 1099 to us at the end of the year for. We will turn around and issue a 1099 to the settlement person too.
In fact, Dodd's people asked us for a W-9 last week. The CPA told me to give them one. They will be issuing the Law Firm a 1099 for approximately $3,000.00 + they paid you over 2010.

Haytham Faraj Sent from my iPhone Dr. Al-Marashi, The Law Firm is following the advice of our accountant and requesting a tax identification number from all the experts used on our cases in 2010. Please fill out the W-9 attached or send us your US Tax ID Number and current address so we may issue you an IRS 1099 form. Thank You, Sincerely, Marcy
