U.S. v. Kattar 840 F.2d 118 is a court case by the U.S. Court of Appeals focusing on the attempt to withdraw two million dollars from the bank account of the founder of the Church of Scientology. Excerpt: "In June 1982, someone attempted to pass a counterfeit $2,000,000 check drawn on the account of L. Ron Hubbard, the founder and, until his recent death, the head of the Church of Scientology. This attempt failed. The check was part of a scheme concocted by a former attorney named Larry Reservitz, who had access to genuine checks and inside information at Hubbard's bank, the Bank of New England."
