MINUTES OF THE READING RETIREMENT BOARD MEETING
EXECUTIVE SESSION

Nicholas Poser, attorney for the Reading Rctilemcnt Board
Robert Toussaint, member of the Reading Retirement System
Paul Danahy, attorney for Robert Toussaint
Stenographer Taryn Gutoff from Kaczynski Reporting
The stenogmphcr, Taryn Gutoff, was hired by the retirement board to transcribe this hearing. This transcription
is considered to be a part of the minutes.
The board has questions about the completeness and general information provided to the board with regard to
Mr. Tousssim's accidental disability application.
Attorney Poser believes that it is important to get the medical records of Dr. William Rubin, Robert Toussaint's
primary care physician at the time of his alleged work-related injury on 5/18/99. Dr. William Rubin is no longer
in practice and neither the retirement board administrator nor Robert Toussaint has been able to obtain his
records. Attorney Pow asked Attorney Danahy to pursue this. Attorney Poser and the board agree that the
board will accept the medical records directly from Attorney Danahy as long as he has a chain of custody and
can show the records are complete and from where they were obtained.
Acting Chairman Seferian informed Mr. Toussaint and Attorney (Danahy that the board will take this matter
under advisement and will inform Mr. Toussaint of further proceedings.
Joseph Veno moved to adjourn to open session.
