HOUSTON, March 18, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Scott
Wolinsky, a former director of American International Industries,
Inc. ("American"; Ticker "AMIN"), and Maria
T. Wolinsky, his wife, have agreed to the consolidation of
their defamation and fraud claims that were pending in two separate
civil lawsuits against American and its CEO, Daniel Dror, in the Harris County District
Courts into the ongoing Houston
arbitration proceeding announced by American on December 17, 2014.
The Wolinskys' decision to dismiss the civil lawsuits pending in
the Harris County District Courts was based solely on American's
and Dror's agreement that the Wolinskys' claims could be joined and
consolidated into the arbitration proceeding, and American's and
Dror's Motion to Dismiss under the Texas Citizen's Participation
Act had no bearing on the Wolinskys' decision to dismiss the
lawsuits.
The Wolinskys are represented by attorney Andrew K. Meade of Hawash Meade Gaston Neese
& Cicack LLP (2118 Smith Street, Houston, Texas 77002, telephone (713)
658-9001, website http://www.hmgnc.com), and attorney Robert J. Kruckemeyer (800 Commerce Street,
Houston, TX 77002, telephone (713)
