‘I was in a little bit of disbelief ’ Attorneys escape major injuries in plane crash
By David Chapman Staff Writer The scene below from the clear, blue sky looked chaotic. A small plane tattered and in pieces downed in the swampy Everglades, perilously close to a canal. Two men in business-casual attire outside, one on the phone while the other peers into a cockpit housing the trapped pilot. It was a rescue scene that unfolded for television viewers,
live from a news chopper. It was supposed to be a routine business trip last week for Bob Spohrer and Steve Browning. The two Spohrer & Dodd shareholders had made the trip many times. “It was completely normal,” said Browning. “A nice day to fly.” Something happened this time.
Calmness before impact

aircraft, working during the two hour or so flight. Completely normal until Browning said he felt the descent and realized it wasn’t Fort Lauderdale.
“There wasn’t an airport,” he said. “And we were landing.” Browning was sitting in a seat with his back to the cockpit, one of the safer positions in crashes. Spohrer was in the seat facing him and calmly advised Browning to tighten his seatbelt and brace himself. Once they crashed, Spohrer said, they’d go out the emergency window. Browning has never been in that type of emergency situation before. By the time he realized something was really wrong,

By Max Marbut Staff Writer There’s a new menu and a new sous chef at La Cena Ristorante in the historic Elks Building Downtown. Owner and executive chef Jerry Moran said it’s the first time he has been able to find a second-in-command for his kitchen with the skills and personality to contribute to the restaurant’s reputation, he said. Moran found what he was looking for in Michael Jablonski, former executive chef at Epping Forest Yacht & Country Club. “It’s hard to find a good sous chef, but Mike is completely competent,” said Moran. “It’s a new era for La Cena. I have more time to shop every day and handpick ingredients knowing Mike is in the kitchen.” Jablonski began his culinary career 36 years ago, when he learned to be a cook in the U.S. Navy. He continued his training at the University of California San Diego and has since worked in all types of restaurants. He began at Epping 23 years ago as the café chef, developing menus and cooking for people around the swimming pool and fitness center. During the five years before he arrived at La Cena, he was the executive chef in the mansion, where in addition to supervising the day-to-day dining, he created menus for more than 1,500 weddings. One of his most notable menus was at a reception for 370 people and was featured in the fall 2013 issue of Martha Stewart Weddings magazine. “I’ve always worked in the corporate setting,” Jablonski said. “This is my first time in a small, independent restaurant.” As for menu changes, patrons at La Cena are now offered Moran’s creations in small, medium and large sizes. “If we were guilty of anything, it was serving too much food. Offering the different sizes gives people an option if they don’t want to take food home,” Moran said. He’s also added a new selection to the 40 items on the menu. “Pestata” is a chicken or veal scallopini dish that combines prosciutto, sage, anchovies, capers butter, extra virgin olive oil
they’d hit the ground. “I was in a little bit of disbelief,” he said. What came next was a blur, he said. He remembers being outside the plane on the wing, walking, talking, unharmed. Spohrer also had made it and, besides a gash on his forehead, seemed no worse for wear. The pilot, however, hadn’t been as fortunate. Jim Townsend had steered the plane to relative safety — on CRASH CONTINUED ON PAGE A-7
Rayonier Advanced Materials Inc. shareholders have seen nothing but bad news since the company split up with Rayonier Inc. in mid-2014, but the stock was one of the top performers on the New York Stock Exchange Thursday after a positive thirdquarter earnings report. Jacksonville-based Rayonier AM, which produces cellulose specialties products, reported adjusted earnings of 78 cents a share, up from 53 cents in the third quarter of 2014 and well above analysts’ forecasts of 39 cents to 51 cents, according to Thomson Financial. That report sent the company’s stock up by $2.02 to $10 Thursday. While that’s still a long way from the stock’s peak in the $40s shortly after the spinoff in July 2014, the 25.3 percent one-day gain was the sec- Boynton ond-best increase among NYSE-listed stocks Thursday. In the company’s conference call with analysts, CEO Paul Boynton said Rayonier AM has been working on three objectives: to reduce costs, optimize assets and come out with new and enhanced products. “We continue to make significant progress across the board on all of these platforms, and most immediately on our cost reduction initiative,” he said. The company said it is approaching its goal of reducing annual costs by $40 million, but it did not detail the expense cuts. BASCH CONTINUED ON PAGE A-10

After opening a bakery and panini shop in the Elks Building in 2001, he changed the format to fine dining and dinner service at

Curry sets meetings on discrimination From Staff Mayor Lenny Curry has scheduled three “community conversations” to discuss discrimination.

In 2012, City Council defeat-

STAYIN’ ALIVE: HOW STAYING ACTIVE IMPACTS MY LIFE
JESSICA MATHIS
Make the land of nod a priority
Sleep is a keystone habit, because it plays a critical role in our hormonal balance, emotional health, critical learning, appetite regulation, immune protection and many others functions. If we sleep well, we wake up refreshed, naturally energized and can perform at our best without stimulants like caffeine, sugar or alcohol.
Thrive and grow from challenges
Carson Given the current research on the importance of sleep, skimping on this important function is a bad strategy for dealing with the demands of daily life. To improve your sleep, consider these: Go to bed and wake up at about the same time (including weekends); no caffeine after 2 p.m.; take power naps; disconnect and go outside for an easy walk after dinner; develop a bedtime ritual; light scented candles (lavender is known to promote a sound sleep); and listen to soft music or read a paperback book before going to sleep.
Start keeping a journal
Journaling is beneficial to your sleep, health and mind. Research shows that 15 to 20 minutes of journaling three to five times a week can help us manage stress and achieve our goals. It has also been found to help with lawyering skills, such as processing and communicating complex ideas more effectively, memorizing important information and being more creative. To add journaling to your life, consider writing for five minutes in the morning to focus your day and five minutes in the evening
When faced with an unfamiliar or challenging situation, we tend to procrastinate and put the challenge off. We perform small tasks and busy work that might make us feel productive, but prevent us from completing our most important tasks, which leads to increased stress. Instead, learn to take on obstacles and adversity. Focus and challenge yourself to do at least one difficult thing every morning. For example, if you need to work on a brief, work on it for 30 minutes before you do anything else — no checking emails, surfing the net, checking social media or other distractions. If you want to complete a triathlon, start dedicating 30 minutes every day to running, swimming or biking. Triathlons are not for everyone, but they have become a very important part of my life. I do not love all three disciplines. In fact, I have to work at motivating myself to swim. But, the challenge and the variety of the sport keeps me inspired and makes the training enjoyable and possible. I also love the camaraderie among triathletes, their remarkable internal drive and laser focus on goals. I continuously learn from these superb athletes who do not mind sharing their strategies to succeed and embrace the journey of life. Aloha.

I stay active by coaching indoor volleyball and playing beach volleyball. Coaching allows me to continue participating in the sport I love. Beach volleyball lets me spend time with my husband and we only have to find two more people to get a game going. I try to play as many competitive beach volleyball tournaments as possible, which keeps me motivated to head to the gym in between.

“
Within the past year, I started running in local races around town. Most recently, I ran in the Pumpkin Run at the Evergreen Cemetery and plan to run the 2016 River Run. Although I’ve never considered myself an avid runner, participating in these races has been a great way to get outdoors, see different parts of Jacksonville and relieve stress, all at the same time.
“
Onipa’a was the theme for the 2015 Kona Triathlon Ironman Championship. This Hawaiian word means to remain steadfast, resilient and resolute and to remember and embrace what you have learned throughout the journey of life. I learned about Onipa’a while in Hawaii cheering for my husband, Jeff, who raced in this Ironman. Although I have participated in other Ironman competitions, there is nothing like Ironman Kona. It is the ultimate test of body, mind and spirit. The tough course, the remarkable fitness of the athletes and the exuberance of the volunteers are surreal. If you are looking for motivation, I invite you to watch the 2015 Ironman Championship on YouTube. The level of commitment of the athletes, volunteers and families is amazing. These athletes were resilient and resolute and performing at their fullest. As I learn from them, I am continuing to share some of their keystone habits, to help you perform optimally and live life to its fullest.
“
to learn and memorialize great moments in your life. To journal, I have used the apps Day One and the Five Minute Journal and currently use Evernote. The key is to get started.

“
Bataineh Palmeri, LLP The legal profession can be very sedentary, so I make a conscious effort to stay very active. I especially enjoy staying active with my wife. She and I go on bike rides together around town and I find that when you stay active with your partner, it is much more fulfilling. Soccer is my favorite way of staying active and I make it a priority to play twice a week. It is so important to maintain an active lifestyle and I encourage everyone to try something new and incorporate a little movement into their daily routine. It truly makes a difference.

Remain steadfast and resilient and embrace life’s journey

Wicker Smith O’Hara McCoy & Ford P.A. In the past, I had been active on and off. Recently, I made a commitment to get back into shape and be active on a regular basis. I began training for a 5K and then finally made it through the Gate River Run. In the last couple of months or so, I started doing cross-training, which has really helped build by strength and confidence. Staying active is a healthy way to maintain my competitive drive and it also helps me maintain my focus and energy. My current goal is to complete my first half-marathon this December. Wish me luck.

“It’s really wonderful that you’re doing this,” said one senior citizen at the Clay County Council on Aging. “I just can’t believe that you’re all here to help us. You don’t have to do this and you are,” said another at Pablo Hamlet Senior Residential Center in Duval County. Pro bono attorneys, paralegals and law students in the 4th Judicial Circuit continue to join forces to help ensure area senior citizens have the support of people they trust as they manage their health, housing and financial matters. The Advance Directives for Seniors projects are presented in three segments. In the first segment, a pro bono attorney speaks in a group information session at the residential facility. For the events at Pablo Hamlet and the Council on Aging, Debbie Lee-Clark and Bruce Bickner were the presenting attorneys. Senior citizens gathered to hear about the purpose of each of these advance directive documents: durable power of attorney, designation of health care surrogate, designation of pre-need guardian and a living will. Seniors who wanted to have the documents created worked with Teresa Swanner, the service coordinator at Pablo Hamlet, to schedule a time to meet with an attorney Oct. 17. Seniors in Clay scheduled appointments with Shereen Snare, marketing, development and community relations manager, to meet with attorneys Oct. 22. Document creation at a single event is the second segment. At the two locations, 20 senior citizens completed documents. The third segment provides assistance for seniors who were unable to attend the group document creation event but indicated they
would like to have the service. The following attorneys provided free legal counsel at Pablo Hamlet: Lisa DiFranza, Debbie Lee Clark, Jamie Olinto, Tiffany Poore, Jennifer Owen, John Humes and Christopher Roland. Paralegal Donna Hoffman notarized documents and scanned executed documents for archiving in the Jacksonville Area Legal Aid case management system. These paralegals and notaries drafted and executed documents: Lisa Hunt, Margaret Costa and Donna Jones. Florida Coastal Law School students also assisted: Susanne Menke, Patrice Ocasio and Bradley Botko. At the Council on Aging, the following attorneys participated: Christean Hollinger, Bruce Bickner, Raye Blair, Hailey Hatcher, Elizabeth Teelon, Monica Mercer, Kelsea Eckert and Lisa Dasher. Paralegals Sherri Vardas, Rita Geer and Joy Haney also assisted with the event. Sincere appreciation is extended to the Duval and Clay volunteer teams for stepping up for senior citizens. The Advance Directives for Seniors Pro Bono Project will begin its fifth year of service in 2016. Seniors throughout Northeast Florida are provided valuable legal assistance at HUD residential centers, medical clinics and Council on Aging campuses. At the Clay event, an appreciative senior told her pro bono attorney, “Without you I never would have been able to get this done. My children and I are very relieved and grateful. You are a blessing.” Attorneys interested in these and other pro bono opportunities throughout the 4th Judicial Circuit are encouraged to contact Para at kathy.para@ jaxlegalaid.org.

Georgia nips Florida in moot court It was a ferocious 90-minute slugfest that culminated five weeks of preparation. But afterward, University of Georgia law students Jake Ware and Stephen Morrison felt they had done their part Friday in the Bulldogs’ annual rivalry with the University of Florida. The third-year UGA School of Law team prevailed over secondyear UF Levin College of Law students Kristie Saoud and Kyle Louramore in the 35th annual Florida/Georgia Hulsey/Gambrell Moot Court Competition at the Bryan Simpson United States Courthouse. The students’ arguments, often intercepted by relentless questioning from the bench, were followed by a decision in Georgia’s favor by three Florida and two Georgia federal judges. A Jacksonville legal community tradition, the competition is held on the eve of the annual football showdown in Jacksonville. “The ball’s in our football team’s court now,” a beaming Morrison, of Savannah, said afterward as he and Ware, of Statesboro, posed for photographs with the championship trophy. (Georgia lost to Florida 27-3.) Saoud is from Jacksonville and Louramore is from Wellington. The moot court competition simulates current, unresolved United States Supreme Court cases involving federal constitutional law. Friday’s case contemplated a criminal defense attorney’s conviction for conspiracy in aiding his client’s crimes and the police search of the attorney’s motor vehicle. Ware and Morrison, who said the judges’ grilling was as tough as any they faced in preparations

The University of Georgia team won the annual Florida/Georgia Hulsey/Gambrell Moot Court Competition on Friday. From left are Senior Judge William Terrell Hodges, Middle District of Florida; Judge Gerald B. Tjoflat, 11th Circuit Court of Appeals; Judge Marcia Morales Howard, Middle District of Florida; Jake Ware and Stephen Morrison, University of Georgia; Chief Judge Lisa Godbey Wood, Southern District of Georgia; and Senior District Judge William Moore, Southern District of Georgia. and in previous competitions, praised their UF peers. “We know our football team will have a tough challenge tomorrow just like we did today,” Ware said. “They were great competitors.” After the teams presented their cases and rebuttals, the judges met to determine the winner. Court was then called back into session for Gerald Tjoflat, 11th Circuit Court of Appeals judge, to announce the outcome. First, Tjoflat praised the competitors’ preparation and spirit. “It was extremely well done on both sides, which made judging
a very difficult proposition,” he said. “One thing we thought you did well on is that each side knew the other side’s case, which is an important thig in oral arguments. It helps to know your weaknesses and your strengths. “It’s a close case, but Georgia won this one,” he then declared. The other judges were Senior District Judge William Terrell Hodges and District Judge Marcia Morales Howard, both of the Middle District of Florida, and Chief Judge Lisa Godbey Wood and Senior District Judge William Moore, both of the Southern Dis-
trict of Georgia. Avant Edenfield, a Southern District of Georgia senior judge who died in May, often served on the judicial panel and was remembered by his judicial peers before Friday’s competition. “Judge Edenfield was smart and witty and fearless,” Wood said. “He loved this competition; it represented everything he valued.” Sauod, an Episcopal School of Jacksonville graduate, said arguing before the judges was an honor and a valuable experience. “It was a great test of our talent and our hard work, but the judges
made a just decision,” she said. Mark Hulsey, a partner with Jacksonville’s Smith Hulsey & Busey and a University of Florida graduate, began the Moot Court competition. Hulsey was president of The Florida Bar from 1969 to 1970 and The Jacksonville Bar Association in 1962. The competition is sponsored by Smith Hulsey & Busey and Atlanta-based law firm Smith Gambrell & Russell. The event honors Hulsey and E. Smyth Gambrell, a president of the American Bar Association and American Bar Foundation.

Crash
CONTINUED FROM FRONT PAGE an embankment away from the canal and a power grid. Either could have been deadly. The crash had pinned Townsend in the cockpit, breaking his legs. Spohrer was talking him through it, telling him it was going to be OK. Browning walked down the road toward a building he saw in the distance, talking to a 911 operator and trying to explain where they were. Behind him, Browning said he heard a helicopter. “I guess you found us,” he told the operator. No. Rescuers hadn’t, but someone else had.
The Piper Navajo belonging to Spohrer & Dodd’s Aviation LLC went down last week in the Everglades. All three passengers survived, including two attorneys with the firm. Bob Spohrer and Steve Browning had only minor injuries. The pilot suffered broken legs and other injuries and was admitted to the hospital.
Special to the Daily Record
Eye on the skies
It was a typical Monday morning for Juan Rodriguez and his peers at WPLG TV-10, a Fort Lauderdale news station. Rodriguez said there had been some complaints with the camera equipment. His answer was to test it out in the skies, but once they took off, a radio tower alerted them to the situation. Plane down. They had to go. “The first thing we saw was one gentleman with a blue shirt on the wing,” he said. That was Spohrer. “We saw another gentleman walking away from the airplane … on the phone with what looked like no injuries,” said Rodriguez. That was Browning. What Rodriguez and his crew didn’t see at the scene is what made them change priorities. Emergency help hadn’t arrived. “We became first responders,” he said. “We have to go. So we went.” Rodriguez hopped out to help while the helicopter took off to act as a beacon for responders, all the while getting footage. He saw Spohrer with cuts on his face. The pilot trapped. How close the plane had come to further disaster. Could the thing still catch fire? “You think 10,000 things in a second,” Rodriguez said. Rodriguez went to help Spohrer, advising him not to move the pilot given the possibility of expounding on any injuries. Townsend’s arms were bleeding, his head hurt, he was shouting about leg pain and was asking for water. “I could see he was in pain,” said Rodriguez, “but I think when he saw a strange face, he was a little relieved.” Other strange faces soon showed up to help.

When Browning looked back at the sound of the helicopter, he realized it wasn’t first responders in the typical sense. Nonetheless, he said, he won’t forget the station’s “10” emblazoned on its side for quite some time. Rescuers showed up soon after, he said. Browning went from being a helper to becoming a patient. At first, responders didn’t think he’d been involved. “They couldn’t put it together,” said Browning. “I didn’t look like a guy who just got off a crashed plane.” Although he wasn’t sore — adrenaline, they said — he might be in some discomfort in the coming days. While rescuers cut Townsend out to escort him to safety, the passengers also had to take a trip to the hospital. They had, after all, just been in a plane crash — and Spohrer had a head injury to be checked out. Plus, they wanted to be where Townsend was headed. Hours later, both checked out
OK. Spohrer was stitched up. Browning said their phones had been inundated with calls, texts and emails — it all started shortly after the crash when people realized it was them. Before heading to a hotel for the night, they stopped at a pharmacy to pick up some prescriptions, dirtied and looking like they’d been put through the wringer. Browning said Spohrer swapped out the paper top the hospital had given him for a generic, touristy T-shirt. “He pulled it off,” said Browning with a slight laugh. Browning said he decided against any purchases, but realized how dirty and bloody his clothes were later at the hotel while making many phone calls to family and friends. That included a call to the acquaintance he was there to visit — the one who called while Browning was on the phone with 911, leaving a joking message about being late. He soon realized why. After the eventful flight, it was back on a commercial plane to Jacksonville the next day.
Greeted by hugs at home
Browning said he wasn’t nervous in the least when he climbed aboard. He wasn’t sore, yet. And as Spohrer told Daily Record partner WJXT TV-4, there were no misgivings to climbing aboard. Other than walking, flying is the safest form of transportation, Spohrer said. When they returned, both men stopped by the firm that, among other areas, specializes in aircraft accident cases. In fact, the Piper Navajo was registered to an LLC of the firm’s. They were greeted with “a lot more hugs than I have gotten in a long time,” Browning said. “They obviously were happy to see me and I was happy to be seen,” he said. “No one got real emotional or anything. … It was a near miss. Those things happen and you move on.” Much of the attention now turns to Townsend. Spohrer told WJXT the firm had flown Townsend’s wife and family members to Fort Lauderdale and hoped for a quick recovery. Browning said Friday Townsend had stabilized and “was doing as well as can be expected.” Spohrer told WJXT it was Townsend’s efforts that led to the three of them surviving. That when you look at the wreckage, it was “pretty incredible” all three survived. “We’re grateful to be here,” he told the station. Browning, likewise, offers Townsend praise. Rodriguez realizes it, too, crediting the pilot for such a landing given the proximity to other dangers. “It was amazing these guys survived that crash,” said Rodriguez. For the attorneys, it’s been work as usual for the most part. Spohrer went out of town to visit family late in the week and couldn’t be reached by the Daily Record. Browning stayed close and expected to see some of his children come back to town for the annual Florida-Georgia game Saturday. Initially, they weren’t all planning on making the trip. But, they did. A “near miss” as Browning calls it, has a way of changing plans. dchapman@jaxdailyrecord.com @writerchapman (904) 356-2466

CONTINUED FROM FRONT PAGE Rayonier AM’s biggest problem has been oversupply issues in the cellulose specialty product market since it split from Rayonier Inc. However, the company revealed another issue in August when it disclosed a contract dispute with its biggest customer, Eastman Chemical Co., which accounted for 31 percent of Rayonier AM’s 2014 sales. The companies filed competing lawsuits against each other. Boynton said Thursday both cases are proceeding under seal and are being treated confidentially, so he couldn’t give details. “We and Eastman continue to work constructively towards a mutually agreeable resolution and we’ll update our investors when we have information to report,” he said. D.A. Davidson analyst Steven Chercover said in a research note Rayonier AM is making some progress on a turnaround. “While we like roller coasters in real life, Rayonier AM’s wild ride since the split has been anything but fun,” Chercover said . “Rayonier AM is by no means out of the woods, but it’s encouraging to see glimpses of strength when it runs well and executes on plan,” he said.
Black Knight beats forecasts
In its first full quarter as a public company, Black Knight Financial Services Inc. beat analysts’ forecasts. The Jacksonville-based mortgage technology company that was spun off from Fidelity National Financial Inc. in May reported adjusted third-quarter earnings from continuing operations rose 13 percent to $38.9 million, or 25 cents a share. Analysts were forecasting earnings of 22 cents to 24 cents, according to Thomson. “As you can see from our financial performance in the third quarter and year to date, the fundamentals of our business remain very strong,” Black Knight Chairman Bill Foley said in the company’s conference call. Foley “I’m very proud of the accomplishments we’ve made to date and I believe Black Knight is uniquely positioned to capitalize on the opportunities generated by the tailwinds in the U.S. mortgage industry,” he said.
Fidelity rethinks restaurant spinoff
Fidelity, which is mainly a title insurance company, continues to spin off its investments in non-title businesses, including a recent spin of restaurant company J. Alexander’s Holdings Inc. Fidelity also owns a majority stake in another restaurant company called American Blue Ribbon Holdings, which owns five restaurant chains, and was planning a spinoff of that business. However, Foley, who is also chairman of Fidelity, said last week the company was rethinking its options for American Blue Ribbon. The restaurant business is part of Fidelity’s FNFV Group subsidiary, which holds Fidelity’s nonreal estate-related investments and trades separately as a tracking stock. During FNFV’s quarterly conference call last week, Foley said it may not make sense to keep all five of American Blue Ribbon’s chains in one company because they serve different segments of the restaurant business. Fidelity is working to sell off its Max & Erma’s restaurant chain
and is considering splitting up the other four chains — Ninety Nine, Village Inn, Baker’s Square and O’Charley’s — into separate companies. “As we worked through our J. Alexander’s spinoff, we started thinking more about ABRH and should it really be distributed in the form of one company or should it possibly be three companies that are more akin to their own characteristics,” Foley said. “So, we’re really evaluating whether or not we want to do three transactions, one transaction or two transactions,” he said. “The other complicating factor is that, if we were to do three transactions, we need to have three years of audited statements for each company.” So, plans for American Blue Ribbon are on hold.
tunity to truly build the premier community bank in the markets we serve,” Atlantic Coast Financial CEO John Stephens said in the company’s news release. Last week, Atlanta-based Fidelity Southern Corp. (no relation to Fidelity National Financial) announced an agreement to buy Jacksonville’s American Enterprise Bankshares Inc. That followed the Oct. 1 announcement that Ameris Bancorp agreed to buy Jacksonville Bancorp Inc. Ameris is officially headquartered in Moultrie, Ga., but it is moving its executive offices to the Riverplace Tower on Jacksonville’s Southbank. Ameris reported operating earnings of 49 cents a share for the third quarter, 5 cents higher than last year.
Fidelity earnings below forecasts
Web.com has mixed results
Meanwhile, Fidelity reported third-quarter adjusted earnings of 60 cents a share, up from 51 cents in the third quarter of 2014 but lower than the average analyst’s forecasts of 62 cents, according to Thomson. Foley said in Fidelity’s conference call that its title insurance business needs an improvement in the residential home buying market to increase profit margins. “The residential purchase market continues to steadily improve and the residential refinance market has been declining, although a recent drop in rates may provide a further period of improving refinance volumes,” he said.
EverBank earnings drop
EverBank Financial Corp. last week reported adjusted thirdquarter earnings of 23 cents a share, 10 cents lower than last year. “Despite the fact that our third quarter financial results were negatively impacted by a challenging market environment and some unusual items, our business fundamentals remain solid as we continue to execute our strategy of generating strong consumer and commercial loan and deposit growth,” CEO Robert Clements said in EverBank’s conference call. Clements said low interest rates impacted the bank’s loan sale transactions, resulting in lower than expected non-interest income. He also said the bank increased its provision for possible loan losses because of one specific borrower. Chief Financial Officer Steve Fischer said in the conference call the customer has a $45 million loan secured by three office buildings, and EverBank incurred a $5 million loss provision on that loan. The bank’s total loan loss provision in the quarter was $11.1 million. “Despite the ongoing challenges in the market environment, we expect fourth quarter earnings to rebound significantly driven by growth in net interest income, reduction in provision expense, and improvement in non-interest income,” Clements said. EverBank’s stock fell $2.08 to $18.30 Wednesday after the earnings report.
Web.com Group Inc. on Thursday reported third-quarter adjusted earnings of 62 cents a share, a penny lower than last year but above its forecast range of 59 cents to 61 cents. Adjusted revenue fell 2.4 percent to $140.4 million, but that was slightly higher than the company’s forecast range of $138.5 million to $140 million. During the third quarter, Web. com announced a data breach that exposed credit-card information for about 93,000 of its 3.3 million customers. The company did lose some business from that, CEO David Brown said in the company’s conference call with analysts. Brown said Web.com estimated it lost about $350,000 in revenue in the third quarter and it expects about $1 million in lost revenue
per quarter related to the breach. However, Brown said, “We believe the event is behind us and will have a small short-term impact on the business.”
Regency meeting goals
Regency Centers Corp. last week reported core funds from operations of 76 cents a share in the third quarter, 5 cents higher than last year and 2 cents higher than the average forecast of analysts, according to Thomson. Funds from operations are basically earnings excluding depreciation and amortization expenses and are considered the key earnings metric for real estate investment trusts like Regency. “Our results continue to be extremely gratifying. We are achieving Regency’s key strategic goals and objec- Stein tives,” CEO Hap Stein said in the company’s conference call. The goals include net operating income growth of 4 percent, which Regency exceeded in the third quarter with 4.7 percent NOI growth for properties owned for more than one year. Regency’s portfolio of 318 retail properties was 96 percent leased at the end of the third quarter.
Deutsche Bank announces job cuts
Deutsche Bank last week finally announced the mass layoffs everyone has been waiting for since the spring. However, the Germany-based bank is still not saying if its restructuring will
affect its plans to grow in Jacksonville. Deutsche Bank said it is eliminating 9,000 full-time jobs plus about 6,000 “external contractor positions.” The company will reduce its employment by another 20,000 by selling off some businesses, Deutsche Bank officials said in a news conference, according to several reports. It currently has about 100,000 employees plus 30,000 contractor positions. While this restructuring process has been going on for months at Deutsche Bank’s headquarters, the company in July received approval from the City Council for a $5.5 million incentive package to add 475 jobs in Jacksonville over the next two years. That would bring its employment in Jacksonville to 2,124. A Deutsche Bank spokeswoman said the company would not comment on how or if the latest corporate restructuring plan would affect its Jacksonville plans.
Drone Aviation announces reverse split
Jacksonville-based Drone Aviation Holding Corp. on Friday announced a reverse stock split in which stockholders will get one share of stock for every 40 shares they owned before the split. Drone Aviation’s stock closed at 13 cents Thursday when the split took effect. It was quoted at $5.11 Friday morning on the OTC market after the split. The stock is trading under the temporary ticker symbol “DRNED” for 20 days, and then it will go back to its regular “DRNE” symbol. mbasch@baileypub.com

Jacksonville attorney disbarred for contempt Special to the Daily Record
compliance after his suspension.
The Florida Supreme Court 26 attorneys — disbarring four, revoking the license of one, suspending 19 and publicly reprimanding two. One attorney was also placed on probation, another was ordered to pay restitution. One is from Jacksonville: Scott Douglas Leemis, disbarred effective immediately. (Admitted to practice: 1981) Leemis was found in contempt for non-compliance for failure to comply with the conditions of a March 27 suspension order. Specifically, Leemis was ordered to notify his clients, opposing counsel and tribunals of his suspension and provide to The Florida Bar a sworn affidavit listing the names and addresses of all persons and entities that received a copy of the suspension order.
• Frank Bankowitz III, Orlando, to be publicly reprimanded by publication in the Southern Reporter. (Admitted to practice: 1974) Bankowitz failed to comply with his professional obligation to the Internal Revenue Service, by failing to remit to the IRS funds he withheld from his employees’ wages for unemployment, Social Security, Medicare and income taxes from 2011 to 2013. He remitted payment in full of $29,448.93 to the IRS in February.
Others are: • Richard Henry Albritton III, Panama City, suspended for 60 days. Further, Albritton is placed on probation for two years. (Admitted to practice: 2008) Albritton pleaded no contest in court and was adjudicated on four criminal misdemeanor charges: reckless driving, possession of marijuana less than 20 grams, possession of drug paraphernalia and knowingly driving with a suspended license. • Robert F. Alsfelder Jr., Cincinnati, suspended for three years. Alsfelder is also a member of the Ohio State Bar Association. He was suspended indefinitely from practicing law in Ohio, after being found in contempt by the Cincinnati Bar Association. Alsfelder failed to comply with a subpoena for a deposition and produce certain documents including copies of his federal tax returns from 2004 through 2009. He also filed a false affidavit of
• Nathaniel Joe Birdsong III, Pembroke Pines, disbarred effective retroactive to Oct. 1, 2010. (Admitted to practice: 1999) Birdsong was suspended for three years and worked as a paralegal. During that time, he routinely met with clients or prospective clients and signed fee agreements on behalf of his employer. • Charles Jeffrey Broida, Columbia, Md., suspended until further order. (Admitted to practice: 1973) Broida is also a member of the Maryland State Bar Association. This is a reciprocal discipline action. According to a petition for emergency suspension order, Broida caused great public harm by misappropriating funds from an estate and fabricated account statements to conceal the misappropriation in Maryland. • Steven M. Chamberlain, Ocala, suspended for 45 days. Further, Chamberlain is directed to attend ethics school and a professionalism workshop. (Admitted to practice: 1978) In the handling of several cases, Chamberlain did not provide clients with competent representation. In some instances, he failed to adequately communicate. In another case, his representation presented
a conflict of interest. A Florida Bar audit found that Chamberlain’s trust account was not maintained in substantial minimum compliance with Bar rules. Chamberlain was also the subject of a contempt order involving his first divorce. • Anthony Harold Clifton, Brooksville, disbarred effective immediately. (Admitted to practice: 1996) Clifton was hired to represent a client in a criminal matter. He failed to communicate, failed to diligently represent the client’s interests and made misrepresentations to his client. He also failed to respond to the Bar as required by the rules. • John J. Doyle, Okemos, Mich., suspended for three years. He is further directed to comply with the terms of a prior court order before petitioning for reinstatement. (Admitted to practice: 1993) Doyle was found in contempt for violating the terms of a March 31 suspension order. He was required to notify his clients, opposing counsel and tribunals of his suspension and provide to The Florida Bar a sworn affidavit listing the names and addresses of all persons and entities that received a copy of the suspension order. • Warren Karl Geissel, Shalimar, to be publicly reprimanded. (Admitted to practice: 1983) Geissel did not competently and diligently represent a client on appeal resulting in the imposition of sanctions. He ignored court orders and failed to comply with the appellate rules, failed to pay filing fees to the Okaloosa County Court and the First DCA, and he failed to respond to a Bar inquiry. • John Christopher Getzinger, Coral Springs, suspended for 91 days.

$4,800 to two clients. (Admitted to practice: 2009) Getzinger failed to competently represent clients in two states in which he was not licensed to practice law. In one instance, Getzinger was retained in a foreclosure action against a home in New Hampshire. Getzinger failed to take any significant action in the case, so the home subsequently went into foreclosure and the client was made aware of it after receiving an eviction notice. Getzinger never met or spoke with the clients. They communicated instead with his nonlawyer employees. The scenario was similar in a case in which Getzinger was hired to represent a woman attempting to obtain a mortgage modification for a home in Washington state. • Judith Warren Hawkins, Tallahassee, suspended for nine months. (Admitted to practice: 1985) Hawkins was removed from the office of Leon County judge for a series of violations of the Code of Judicial Conduct. She failed to pay state sales tax on the sale of her business products and she failed to register the name of her business under the fictitious name law, a second-degree misdemeanor. • Melissa Heaton, Cooper City, suspended until further order. (Admitted to practice: 2007) Heaton was found in contempt for non-compliance and failure to respond to numerous official Bar inquiries regarding three separate complaints. • Stuart Carl Hoffman, Boca Raton, suspended for one year. (Admitted to practice: 1990) Hoffman was found in contempt for failing to comply with the terms of a July 24, 2014, suspension order. Specifically, Hoffman was ordered to notify his clients, opposing counsel and tribunals of his suspension and provide to The Florida Bar a sworn affidavit listing the names and addresses of all persons and entities that received a copy of the suspension order. • James Franklin Lowy, Clearwater, suspended until further order. (Admitted to practice: 1996) According to a petition for emergency suspension order, Lowy appeared to be causing great public harm. A Florida Bar audit found trust account shortages in excess of $60,000. Also, Lowy had not maintained a cash receipts and disbursements journal or individual client ledgers, nor had he performed monthly bank reconciliations. • Joshua Daniel Medvin, Miami. The Supreme Court granted Medvin’s request for a disciplinary revocation, with leave to seek readmission after five years. (Admitted to practice: 1984) Disciplinary revocation is equivalent to disbarment. Cases pending at grievance committee included allegations of misappropriation and mishandling of client funds, failure to comply with court orders, a lack of candor to the tribunal and failure to communicate with clients. • Jasmin Veronica Miller, Boaz, Ala., suspended for 18 months. (Admitted to practice: 2005) In April, the federal immigration administrative court suspended Miller from practicing law for 18 months for failure to attend hearings, making frivolous filings and failing to provide diligent and competent representation. In addition, The Florida Bar had eight files at staff and grievance committee level raising similar allegations regarding the representation of immigration clients. • Kathryn Lynn Montague, Cocoa, suspended for 30 days. (Admitted to practice: 2003) Mon-
tague substituted as counsel of record in a child custody matter. Thereafter, she failed to adequately communicate and failed to expedite litigation with the client.

50 years ago this week
Voters approve tax increase to fund Duval public education
Have you ever wondered what life was like in Jacksonville half a century ago? It was a different era of history, culture and politics but there are often parallels between the kind of stories that made headlines then and today. As interesting as the differences may be, so are the similarities. These are some of the top stories from this week in 1965. The items were compiled from the Jacksonville Public Library’s periodical archives by Staff Writer Max Marbut.
Duval County’s owners of real property voted to approve a 10-mill levy to fund public schools, which would allow funding the $50.7 million budget requested by the school board. The Budget Commission proposed a budget of only $43.1 million, which led teachers to cancel nonpaid activities, including sports. “We think the public has expressed that they are with us — and by that I mean the teachers of the county — in demanding that the educational and political climate in Duval County be changed,” said Constance Cason, spokeswoman for the Duval County Teachers Association. She said football and other extracurricular activities could be restored immediately. With all 148 precincts reporting, the 10-mill proposal drew 23,829 votes. Another 13,533 taxpayers voted to levy 0 mills for schools and the remaining 1,090 votes were distributed among millage rates from 1-9 mills. The vote was “most gratifying,” said School Superintendent Ish Brant. “It is positive evidence that the electorate of Duval County desires quality education and is willing to support it to the fullest,” he said. “The board, school personnel and I express our deepest thanks and appreciation to the many individuals and organizations whose efforts made the results possible on behalf of the youth of our community.” The Budget Commission’s $43.1 million proposed budget would have capped property taxes at 25 mills — $25 for each $1,000 of taxable property valuation –– with that sum raising funds not only for education, but for all county government functions. The commission contended taxpayers could not afford more than 25 mills. The school budget would not be finally decided until after a public hearing scheduled Nov. 19 at the Civic Auditorium. • By a vote of 38,769 to 12,577, voters also approved the Jacksonville Port Authority’s proposed $25 million general obligation bond issue. The money raised from the bonds would be used to expand and improve the facilities at the Port of Jacksonville. “It just shows that the people of Duval County are educated to the fact that the port means more than it was ever expected to,” said David Watts, authority chair. He estimated the first group of bonds would be sold within 30 days. They would cover the cost of replacing Talleyrand docks and terminals and the county’s share of the cost for dredging the Jacksonville harbor. • Ted David, an executive assistant in the mayor’s office, returned from a “federal aid investigation trip” to Washington, D.C., where he learned of a way to improve mass transit. He reported Jacksonville commuters’ traffic headaches might be cured by “modern, speedy
express buses” from suburban collection points into Downtown. David said while some cities tackling traffic problems were leaning toward high-speed rail service and monorails, most cities, about 90 percent, were choosing bus transportation. The plans, he said, included establishing collection areas in the suburbs much like a train depot with parking spaces for commuters’ cars. Express buses would run at frequent intervals into the central part of the city during rush hours. David also reported a new federal agency, Housing and Urban Development, would take over authority of the Housing and Home Finance Agency and would oversee the Federal Housing Administration. In order to receive urban renewal aid from HUD, he said, the city was required to have a comprehensive plan projecting population growth, land use and traffic patterns.
• The new parking lot on the river side of the Duval County Courthouse was set to open Nov. 15. Everybody, including county officials and employees, would have to pay to park there. The Board of County Commissioners decided to charge 35 cents for the first half hour and 5 cents for each subsequent hour or fraction thereof, up to a maximum of $1 per day for a 24-hour period. A monthly parking sticker, allowing unlimited entries and exits daily would cost $12, except to 42 spaces nearest the building. They would cost $15 a month and be sold on a first come, first served basis. The lot would be closed from 6 a.m. Saturday to 6 a.m. Monday, except by special arrangement of the board. At other times, the lot would be open and staffed 24 hours a day, with a full crew of attendants from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. daily and a skeleton crew from 7 p.m. to 6 a.m. • Hysterical outbursts by a married couple who had just been sentenced to 18 months in prison for mail fraud transformed a usually sedate federal courtroom into bedlam. George and Marites Mathis, both 24, of 768 Acosta St., pleaded guilty to charges of acquiring a large quantity of property under false pretense. They joined record clubs, book clubs, camera arts clubs and similar distributing companies and failed to pay for the merchandise. The scheme began in April 1962 and continued until February 1965 with the couple using at least 30 fictitious names in their illegal enterprise, it was charged. The couple arrived in U.S. Judge William McRae’s court with their 4-year-old daughter, Marina. After McRae imposed the sentences, he added arrangements had been made to turn the child over to juvenile authorities. He commented that an investigation
on the orders was the same, the inspectors said. • Local philanthropist Loca Lee Buckner made a bequest in her will that would establish a home for unwed mothers in Jacksonville. She died Oct. 27 in Italy while on a trip. Her will, admitted to probate by County Judge Page Haddock, set up the Thad and Loca Lee Buckner Foundation to establish the home for unwed mothers at Buckner’s $125,000 residence. The home, to be called the Old Grove Manor Home, was at 700-701 Old Grove Manor. It would be made available at no charge or obligation to its occupants. Buckner gave the foundation $1 million to set up and maintain the house. She had been a member of the board of directors of the Children’s Home Society, the largest private adoption agency in Florida. In addition, Florida Southern College at Lakeland would receive at least $7 million of the estimated $10 million estate. Buckner left $500,000 to St. Luke’s Hospital, $100,000 to Riverside Park Methodist Church and certain pieces of furniture to the Cummer Museum of Art. The will also included bequests to relatives, friends and servants, ranging as high as $150,000 to several recipients.
conducted by the court’s probation officers indicated Marites Mathis was not a fit mother. The couple’s court-appointed attorney, Walter Stedeford, said she was a native of Germany. Mathis married her there while he was serving in the U.S. Army and she would be subject to deportation when she finished her prison term. At that point, Mrs. Mathis began sobbing loudly and collapsed on the floor in front of the judge’s bench. As she fell, her husband joined her in weeping and so did the daughter. Stedeford picked up the child and tried to comfort her while deputy marshals lifted the woman to a chair. The bedlam began again when Mathis’ mother, Janell Mathis, came forward from the spectator section to take the child. “Don’t let her have the child.
She’s the cause of all this,” screamed Mrs. Mathis. At that point, she and her husband were led from the courtroom to the field deputies’ office, where prisoners were held to await transportation to county jail. She quieted somewhat when a female deputy administered a sedative, but resumed crying and making accusations when the couple was taken to an elevator to begin their journey to jail. According to postal inspectors, the couple obtained merchandise with a value of about $2,000 during the three-year period. An investigation of the scheme began when one of the subscription companies, the Book of the Month Club, reported it had received several orders for books from applicants of different names but who gave the same address. The handwriting
• Jacksonville Days, a three-day sales promotion event, began in area stores. It was sponsored jointly by the Downtown Council of the Jacksonville Regional Chamber of Commerce and merchants who were members of other area councils. Window show cards and display cards identified the merchants, who stocked extra inventory intended to appeal to holiday shoppers. Store and shop personnel, from executives and managers to clerks, wore lapel ribbons identifying them as Jacksonville Days hosts and hostesses. Homer Brunkhorst was chairman of Downtown Council and of the promotion. “Jacksonville merchants are offering a broad selection of merchandise at what we on the committee consider to be bargain prices. They intend to show Jacksonville as a wonderful place for home folks as well as visitors to shop,” he said.
