BRAUNFOTEL WILLARD H. DaSILVA EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR NANCY LOW-HOGAN, Ph.D. INSIDE THIS ISSUE Page 1 President’s Post Page 2 Notice to the Bar ~ RCBA Social Committee Page 3 Retirement Celebration for Hon. Margaret Garvey ~ RCBA 2016-17 Board of Directors President’s Post A LONG-OVERDUE ACKNOWLEDGMENT Each year, the RCBA hands out four awards. In this month of May, we present the Liberty Bell Award on Law Day to a member of the Rockland community for outstanding service in promoting a better understanding or respect for the Constitution, the Bill of Rights and our institutions of government. The honoree is often a non- lawyer. This year' s well-deserved honoree is Dr. Frances Pratt, long-time President of the Nyack NAACP. At our annual dinner each October we present our Lifetime Achievement Award to an attorney or judge for exemplary service. At our Installation Dinner Meeting in June we present two awards to honor the memory of two beloved past members of the RCBA, Richard Sterns and Joseph Balsamo. They have something in common: they both are men. Although all of the four awards have gone to women as well as men, the RCBA has never honored the memory of a distinguished woman member from our past. It is time to end yet another hoary vestige of a time when the Rockland Bar was truly an "old boys' club" . Up until a few months ago, when the Journal News ran a story about her, I doubt that many members of the RCBA had ever heard of Natalie Couch. Shame on all of us for that. In a year when it looks like a major American political party is going to nominate a woman for President for the first time, it certainly is appropriate to remember and honor the memory of Natalie Couch, a true pioneer. It is worth remembering that women did not even have the right to the vote until less than 100 years ago. Natalie Couch was the first woman to vote in Rockland County. She was also the first to practice law here, and the first female President of the RCBA. Natalie was a Nyack native, the daughter of a local doctor, who grew up in a house later known as "Couch Court" which eventually became the Town Hall of Orangetown as well as a law office. After graduating from Wellesley College in 1907, Natalie was first in her class at Fordham Law School and went on to become a law clerk for Judge Arthur S. Tompkins. She became active in Republican politics and was a Republican candidate for Congress in 1934 and 1936, a testament to her obvious courage in those heady first term years of the Roosevelt Administration.

Page 6-13 Advertising ~ Lawyer Assistance Program ~ Lawyer Referral Service Page 14-15 CLE Corner Page 16 Classifieds Natalie certainly was no shrinking violet, hiding out in a law library. She was thoroughly involved in the community. In researching her background, I came across an interesting tidbit. On January 31, 1919 an American Aniline Products Company chemical factory exploded and caught fire in downtown Nyack. One person was killed outright, 3 were missing and presumed dead in the explosion, and 15 were injured. According to the New York Times for February 1, 1919 "the injured were rushed to Nyack Hospital by the Women 's Motor Corps. under Sergeant Natalie Couch." In the Book of Proverbs there is a poem entitled a Woman of Valor. Certainly Natalie Couch was such a woman and I will be asking the Board of Directors to create a new award in her honor. With Best Regards, Robert B. Marcus, President VOLUME 2 PAGE 2 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK Office of the District Court Executive LORETTA A.

Davis, Esq., (845) 634-6633 VOLUME 2 PAGE 5 COMMERCIAL LITIGATION ISSUES OF INTEREST Submitted by Paul Savad, Esq. Chair, Commercial and Corporate Law Committee; Joseph Churgin, Esq., and Susan Cooper, Esq., of SAVAD CHURGIN, Attorneys at Law In 2002, your client and his adult children gathered to sign documents transferring your client's property to himself and to his children as a gift. Your client did not record the deed. In 2006, your client refinanced the mortgage on the property for$2.4 million, without advising the bank of the 2002 deed. The bank failed to record its 2006 mortgage until 2014. In the meantime, in 2009, your client recorded the 2002 deed to himself and his children. The bank commenced a foreclosure action, and has moved to dismiss your affirmative defense that the 2002 deed has priority as both first in time and first recorded. Will you defeat the bank's motion? The answer is no. In JP Morgan Chase Bank v. Barbara, 11261-2012, NYLJ 1202750900301 (March 1, 2016), at *1 (Sup. Ct. Suffolk Co. Decided January 28, 2016) Chase sued former Long Island celebrity attorney Dominic Barbara to nullify a deed from Barbara to himself and his two adult children. In February of 2002, Barbara summoned his children to his office for the signing of "transfer documents" for Barbara's Shelter Island property, which he deeded to himself and his two children. This was done for the purpose of "protecting his children given the fact he was about to marry someone who was not their mother." The children paid no consideration and did not see the deed, which then sat unrecorded in Barbara's office. In 2006, Barbara refinanced his pre-existing mortgage of $1,999,999 with a Consolidation, Extension, and Modification Agreement (GEMA) for $2.4 million. Barbara represented to the bank that he was the sole owner of the property. The bank did not record the CEMA until 2014. In 2007, Barbara signed a prenuptial agreement promising to convey 16.67% of all interest in the property to his new wife, without disclosing the children's interest. Barbara recorded the deed to himself and his new wife in 2008. Then, in 2009, Barbara recorded the 2002 deed to himself and his children. In the action to nullify the 2002 deed, the bank moved to dismiss the affirmative defense that the children's rights were first in time and first in right under the Recording Act (RPL § 290), and to dismiss the affirmative defense that the 2002 deed itself was proof of their prior rights. The children argued that although the deed was not physically delivered to them, there is a presumption that it was delivered in 2002. Moreover, the 2009 recording of their 2002 deed before the bank's mortgage was recorded entitled them to the first-in- time protections of the recording act. The Court disagreed. The court acknowledged that RPL § 290 protects a good faith purchaser for value from an unrecorded interest in real property, provided such a purchaser's interest is first to be recorded, citing Tans/and Assets, Inc. v. Davis, 29 A.D.3d 679 (2d Dep't 2006). However, although the children did not know of the GEMA recorded in 2006, the Court found that they had "knowledge of facts that would lead a reasonably prudent person to make inquiries" about the deed that had not been physically delivered, citing United Mat Realty v. Reode Indus., 155 A.D.2d 660 (2d Dep't 1989). Thus, held the Court, the deed is deemed delivered as of the date of its recording in 2009, citing Matter of Myers v. Key Bank NY, 68 NY2d 744 (1986). The children's deed was, therefore, "second in time," to the 2006 CEMA, and the children were limited to the rights provided by RPL § 291, which protects a second-in-time conveyance only of a good faith purchaser for value. The Court found that although the children did not know of the unrecorded prior interest of the bank, the children had not paid valuable consideration. They were not, therefore, good faith purchasers for value. The Court noted that the children had not included the property in any of their post-conveyance credit or loan applications. The children's affirmative defenses were dismissed. The Lesson? A deed that was executed without consideration, and not delivered (either physically or by recording), will not have priority over an intervening mortgage loan, even if the deed was subsequently recorded before the mortgage loan was recorded.

Every attorney must know the basics regarding proper collection and use of same. This presentation will provide basic, plain English strategies for proper collection, preservation and use of this material as evidence, including the legal foundation for admissibility and challenges to such evidence. The program will also cover, the legal and ethical boundaries between aggressive investigation and collection of digital evidence/social media content on the one hand, and the unlawful/ unethical tactics used to obtain such information which have, unfortunately, become an all too common occurrence. Part II Digital Defense: With the proliferation of computing devices (laptops, smart phones, and tablets), and wireless internet and shared ‘cloud computing environments’ in virtually every home and office, instances of electronic spying and unlawful collection of confidential (potentially privileged) digital information by opposing litigants attempting to gain strategic or legal advantage have become a “virtual epidemic.” Clients and their counsel must take great care to ensure their confidential electronic communications remain private, and that sensitive digital information remains secure from the reach of adverse parties, particularly parties who may be co-habitating. This program will identify and explain the most common ways in which these compromises occur, and present a practical, step-by-step approach to mitigate those risks.
