Stogel Files $260,000 Suit
A $260,000 damage suit alleging,
among other things,
misuse of funds, has been filed
against Neil C. Reshen, Inc., a
business management firm, by
Leonard Stogel & Associates,
Ltd., Gregg Yale, Inc., and Akbestal
Music, Inc., Heroic Age
Publicity, Inc., and Country
Wide Tours.
The action was filed March
21 in the Supreme Court of the
State of New York, County of
New York, by Attorney Louis
C. Fieland on behalf of the
three complainant organizations,
and alleges that "defendants
wilfully converted to their
own use a substantial portion
of the monies collected by them
on behalf of each of the plaintiffs."
Suit asks actual damages in
the amount of $65,000, and
exemplary damages at $195,000.
Complaint further charges
that "the defendant corporation
failed to perform services
required of it (under various
agreements with plaintiffs)
failed to collect all the gross
income due to each of the plaintiffs,
failed to maintain a
proper book of accounts, and
failed to properly account to
each of the plaintiffs."
Stogel, whose personal management
firm represents such
acts as the Cowsills, Boyce and
Hart and Lee Michaels, was
formerly headquartered in New
York, where the Reshen firm
served as his business managers
for about a year. Stogel
recently moved his companies
to Hollywood, where the firms
are headquartered at 9255 Sunset
Blvd.
Reshen's firm was also formerly
the business manager
for the Cowsills and Tommy
James and the Shondells.
