- 69 - Messrs. Alexander, Kozak, and Matsumoto had contacted Mr. McWade to discuss whether the Government would pay a finder's fee for information pertaining to Mr. Kersting's programs. Mr. Alexander's discussions with Mr. McWade on the subject of a finder's fee are discussed in greater detail, infra pp. 106- 115. In a letter dated July 24, 1987, Mr. Kersting brought his dispute with Alexander to the attention of Chicoine and Hallett, stating as follows: Dear Darrell: I have spent the better part of this week in arbitration hearings concerning a case whereby we are attempting to accomplish an offset of debt owed us by a Mr. Denis Alexander against certain obligations we have to him. The matter has been going on for more than six years and has become sheer agony. During the course of the proceedings, however, certain matters came to the surface which will become apparent to you as you will read the enclosed material. The material will disclose a conspiracy between McWade, DEnis [sic] Alexander, an accountant by the name of Gilbert Matsumoto and an attorney by the name of Charles Kozak. Here are some short facts to illuminate the case: DEnis [sic] Alexander was a long-time friend going back more than 25 years, until we locked horns over the debt referred to above. Gilbert Matsumoto is an accountant who was for years the tax preparer for our Finance Company in Aiea, Federated Finance Company, and for about 10 to 14 of our clients which we had referred to him. He had given me an opinion with respect to the viability of the SubChapter S concept which we employed in the mid-70s for our Leasing Companies. He, in fact, did the filing of SubChapter S qualification forms for us with the IRS in Fresno, Calif. and did some of the Tax Returns.
