U.S. Magistrate Judge Cathy L. Waldor has ordered Mark Lanterman to appear before her for a court conference on April 3, 2025, at 10 a.m. Eastern Time. In a March 13, 2025 letter order, Judge Waldor states: “Mr. Lanterman shall also join the conference scheduled for April 3, 2025 at 10 a.m. The Clerk of Court shall kindly send a copy of this Order to Mr. Lanterman…”
Lanterman had earlier written a letter to the judge stating:
“Mr. Miller and Mr. Warshaw, echoing Mr. Harrington’s allegations, have attempted to discredit me by claiming that I misrepresented my academic credentials from Upsala College. Upsala College went bankrupt in 1995. When I attended Upsala, I was a commuter student who lived with my grandparents in Morristown, New Jersey approximately 30 minutes away from Upsala College. With limited resources, I did not participate in campus social events, nor did I attend graduation ceremonies. In 2023, I confirmed with Felician University—which maintains Upsala College’s records—that they could not locate my transcripts or diploma, a situation that they indicated was
possibly due to unresolved money-related issues.”
“I have no reason, motive, or incentive to fabricate academic credentials—much less from a small, defunct, and bankrupt institution. For nearly 25 years, I have transparently and consistently included Upsala College on my CV without objection or question from employers, opposing counsel, or the numerous courts before which I have testified. This is probably because my professional endeavors have never required holding a degree from any academic institution, but here we are.”
