Gurney Altice v. Primary Health Group, Inc. d/b/a Primary Health Group Ironbridge; Alexandra Leonard, N.P.; Dr. Sara Breeden; and Dr. Luisa M. Caparoula
Plaintiff says on/about July 29, 2021, he went to the facility for an appointment and Leonard, a/k/a Alexandra Coglio, ordered routine lab work, and that later that day he received a call to come to the office because his medications were killing his liver and getting into his kidneys and he was about to die. Plaintiff says he went immediately to the office, where Coglio or another employee said he had two days to live, to get to the emergency room, and to throw away his prescribed medications that were causing organ damage. Plaintiff says at Chippenham Hospital, when they ran kidney and liver tests, the results came back normal, and a few days later, defendant informed him his test had been mixed up with another patient, and on Aug. 31, he was informed that on Aug. 16 his information had been shared, a HIPPA violation. Plaintiff says the psychological damages caused by this false alarm was extensive, and wrongly shared with someone else, and seeks judgment of $1 million.

Stuart C. Siegel v. Peter D. Yaffe, executor of the estate of Vanessa L. Patterson; Peter D. Yaffe, individually; Association Management Specialists, LLC; Carter R. Patterson; and Graydon W. Patterson
Plaintiff says this is an action to recover substantial funds belonging to him that were stolen/embezzled by his former part-time assistant and bookkeeper, Vanessa Patterson, and to recover such funds which Patterson shared with or used for the benefit of defendant Yaffe, her longtime romantic interest, AMS, of which Patterson was the sole member, and her sons, Carter and Graydon. Plaintiff says Patterson was responsible for preparing checks for his signature to pay his bills and making other payments, and at some time began forging his signature and making the forged checks payable to herself. Plaintiff alleges Patterson used the funds to fund a lavish lifestyle for herself and defendants, and that checks forged during 2021 and 2022 alone totaled $501,721.31, and that she used stolen funds to establish bank accounts, IRAs and/or 401(k) plans now owed by defendants. When he questioned her about two checks in late 2022, plaintiff says, and she failed to provide answers, he engaged a firm that provides accounting services and financial advice to him to go through his statements and cancelled checks. As a result, plaintiff says, it appears the amount she stole/embezzled was approximately $1 million. Plaintiff says a federal investigation was launched and shortly before Feb. 8, 2023, an FBI agent met with Patterson, and upon information and belief, she was given a “target letter” informing her that the FBI was investigating her and giving her the opportunity to resolve the matter before an arrest. Plaintiff says Patterson died suddenly and unexpectedly on Feb. 8, and under mysterious circumstances, and that the assets in her estate, including automobiles, bank accounts and a Schwab IRA opened on the day she died, were purchased in whole or part by funds she stole from him, and left to defendants. Plaintiff alleges conversion and fraud and seeks injunctive relief and at least $1 million from the estate.

On June 29, 2022, plaintiff says, she attended a scheduled one-on-one with Anderson, and an HR rep was present by Zoom.
