The DOJ's AFMLS division will have 3 or 4 of its attorneys present.
As to the latest issue of your account histories not reflecting late changes and uncashed withdrawals, That is a bit of a new development as, remember, we were all assured FTP had already done this fixing. Of course, lots of things we were "assured of" have not proven to be correct. I suppose it is possible the histories are not the same information given to the DOJ - meaning maybe FTP fixed it for the DOJ but not in the account history section for players. Either way, it is encouraging that we have account histories available and that for at least some the numbers are correct.
You can be assured that we will make the DOJ aware of this issue, try and find out the cause, and suggest ways to make sure players are protected.

Hello, Alejandro.
Thank you for your email.
We can confirm that your Paper Cheque cashout for $xxxx was processed on 3 June 2011.
We no longer have a relationship with the payment processor who processed your Paper Cheque cashout and we cannot determine the status of the cheque. We are unable to recover these funds on your behalf and are unfortunately, unable to assist you further in this matter.
We apologize for any inconvenience that this may cause you.
Regards,
Albert

It would seem from this exchange that FT would have no idea about US limbo funds. This is assuming that once the $ was debited from our accounts it actually went to the processors.
