Another follow-up response:

I have seen some members of TSA have tried to explain away or view and some
time find it convenient to dismiss the whole litigation situation as
*inter-necine* which it is *not.* 

Attorney Generals *do* *not* become plaintiffs in inter-necine matters. As a
matter of fact, it is very rare that Attorney Generals get involved in civil
litigation such as these.

The further irony was that the old Trusts (KWI etc which were 501(c)(3) tax
exempt) and *all* the Trustees of these Trusts sued several of the trustees
of the Krishnamurti Foundation Inc as well as Krishnamurti himself for
multi-million dollars. All these are in public records.
