FILED: NEW YORK COUNTY CLERK 12/07/2016 03:32 PM NYSCEF DOC. NO. 6 INDEX NO. 160258/2016 RECEIVED NYSCEF: 12/07/2016 LAW OFFICES OF DONALD J. TOBIAS 1290 AVENUE OF THE AMERICAS 30TN FLOOR NEW YORK, NEW YORK IOIO4 (212) 7594200 FAX: (2 2) 207-8727 June 3, 2016 Google, Inc. Legal Department 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain Valley, California 94043 Dear Ladies and Gentlemen: I am writing this letter to ask that you take the requisite steps to remove, immediately, an alleged ?Google? ?review? that was meant for some other person, entity or subject, but which somehow wound up as a review for me, ?Donald J. Tobias,? a New York attorney. In this connection, I have just now discovered that a person that conducts a ?Google? search for ?Donald Tobias? or ?Donald J. Tobias? will see a ?review? from an individual, who is a complete and utter stranger to me, named ?Mia Arce.? The ?review,? which will apear when ?Donald Tobias? or ?Donald J. Tobias? is ?Googled,? consists of three words: ?It was horrible.? Please be advised that I do not know anyone named Mia Arce and can state, with absolute certainty, and would happily do so under oath, that I have never met or spoken to or known, let alone performed any professional services for, such a person and/or for anyone with a ?rst, last or middle name ?Mia" or ?Arce.? I do however see, from the intemet research that I have performed, that there are several persons named ?Mia Arce,? that at least one of these persons has proffered reviews about ?You Tube? videos and other subjects and that the singular comment that is contained in the ?review? that appears under my name, ?It was horrible,? was intended to be posited as a ?review? of something other than attorney ?Donald J. Tobias? or the legal services that I provide. I do not, of course, know how this comment wound up as a ?review? of attorney ?Donald J. Tobias,? but this was, apparently, a technical glitch or mistake, on the part of Google or Mia Arce, of some kind. I must also note that the various URL links to the subject ?review,? which I now enclose, carry a reference to the obituary of and related stories about a sixty-eight year old gentleman, also named Donald J. Tobias (no relation, I did not know the man), who was, most unfortunately, decapitated in a widely publicized suicide, which occurred in 2013, when this man jumped in front of an oncoming New York City subway train. (The stories about this man?s suicide appear most prominently when the name ?Donald Tobias,? as opposed to ?Donald J. Tobias, is ?Googled.? As noted, however, he was, like me, named LAW OFFICES OF DONALD J. TOBIAS Google, Inc. Legal Department June 3, 2016 Page 2. ?Donald J. Tobias?). It is certainly possible that Mia Arce was a witness to and/or had some knowledge of this tragic event and that her three word comment, ?It was horrible,? referred in some manner to that incident. It certainly had nothing to do with me. Although the aforesaid statement, ?It was horrible,? was, it now appears, directed by this complete stranger to something other than to attorney ?Donald J. Tobias,? these highly disparaging words must not and cannot be allowed to be seen as a purported ?review? of me as a practicing attorney and damage the stellar reputation that I have built over the last four decades. Please note that I have looked at the link contained within the subject ?review? that invites the reader to ?Flag as Inappropriate.? but the limited choices that are given there do not enable me to explain, adequately, the speci?c and unique problem that I am now reporting. Please note also that I may be reached or contacted at the above referenced telephone number and address, as well as via e-mail at dtobias@tobiaslegal.com. Very truly yours, DONALD J.
