Defendants.
APPEAL OF: MICHAEL L. TINAGLIA and
DIMONTE, SCHOSTOK & LIZAK
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Northern District of Illinois, Eastern
Division.
No. 96 C 3560--Milton I. Shadur, Judge.
DECIDED FEBRUARY 4, 2000
Before RIPPLE, MANION, and EVANS, Circuit
Judges.
EVANS, Circuit Judge. We concluded our
January 10, 2000, opinion in this case
with a request that Jerome H. Torshen,
counsel for Michael Tinaglia and his law
firm, show cause under Federal Rule of
Appellate Procedure 46(c) because we
thought he "may have distorted the
footnote" that appeared in the district
court’s opinion granting CHC’s motion for
a preliminary injunction on the
underlying contract dispute in this case.
Mr. Torshen has responded to our request,
and we have carefully considered his
response. Having done so, we conclude
that Attorney Torshen has demonstrated
that he did not attempt to deliberately
mislead the court through the manner in
which he displayed and referred to the
footnote in question. For that reason, we
issue today’s opinion as a supplement to
the one we issued on January 10, and we

-- 1 of 2 --

specifically exonerate Mr. Torshen from
any accusation of unprofessional conduct.
Any implication to the contrary in our
earlier opinion is withdrawn.
SO ORDERED.
