We are almost at the end of our ordeal.  Only 3 months to go until the trial.   Nothing much left to do but count the days until February 5th, at 8 am in the courtroom of the OIJ building in downtown San Jose.  We will have a board member attending the proceedings.

We are still working to convince those who filed against the Brothers to cancel their claims, which are not only an impediment, but are unnecessary.   They will get their money back, as we all will; and sooner, if we can convince more filers to drop their claims.  We are trying to reach all of them,  but in many cases we do not have sufficient information to make contact.  If you know of anyone who filed a claim,  please send us any contact information you may have.

If you know investors who have not yet joined the UCCR, please urge them to do so, as we are preparing a list with up-to-date information so that we can keep everyone informed on a daily basis as we monitor the trial.  It is reasonable to assume that the judicial decision with respect to Osvaldo will also apply to his brother, Luis Enrique Villalobos.  The most critical result for us will be the dismissal of the money laundering charge, and to the best of our knowledge, despite four years of digging, nothing of substance has been presented to support this malicious allegation.

Once this charge is dropped, those asking for their money will start to get reimbursed.  I expect that many of us will want to leave a portion of our funds invested with Enrique if we could encourage him to resume activities, probably under different conditions and in a different country.  Once that can be arranged,  it should not take long to start receiving interest payments again... badly needed by many of us.

Many investors have asked for information on Savings Unlimited.  That was a very different matter, as Luis Milanes closed his office and fled, with no communication or intention to ever come back or return the investments.  Those involved have to organize and take action, because the casinos and hotels are still functioning as if nothing ever happened, only under different names.  If you had an investment with Savings Unlimited,  please send an email to the following address:  uccrreply@yahoo.com.   We will pass on the information to a group interested in taking action.  Please note that the UCCR is not associated with this, or any other group.  We are only assisting our readers to make contact.

UCCR board members can be proud of having endured all these years, for no financial gains of any kind and despite taunts and insults from critics and detractors, never doubting that we would win in the end, and that our trust in Luis Enrique would prove to be fully justified.  We also thank Jose Miguel Villalobos, who stands at our side, even though the terms of our contract with him were never quite fulfilled.

We are counting the days along with you until February 5, 2007.
 
John Manners, President of the board, UCCR
