(Key, Veronica) (Entered: 11/08/2005) Leasing News asked the parties involved for a statement: Ken Duffy, Sr. responded: "As before, the Detroit, Cincinnati, and Chicago court records speaks for themselves regarding DaimlerChrysler Services' liability for breach of contract and the reasons for SNI's Summit National Incorporated )voluntary filing for protection under CH 11. Perhaps, as the objective news gatherer, you should speak with both sides and you may wish to contact DCS executives, Mr. Jurgen Walker-President (248-427-6600)or Mr. David Olsen-CFO (248-948-3813),to gain a better understanding of their position on damages and their motives for attempting to acquire control of SNI. We have no further comment at this time as a pending jury trial in Detroit will determine damages to SNI for DCS breach of contract and one other issue of liability. Thank you for your interest. Regards, " Neither of the other parties responded.
