`Case 2:21-cv-10046 Document 1 Filed 12/31/21 Page 3 of 11 Page ID #:3
`
`
`11. Venue is proper in this District pursuant 28 U.S.C. §§1391(b)(1) because
`Yanik resides in this District, and a substantial part of the events giving rise to this
`action occurred in this District.
`FACTUAL ALLEGATIONS
`12. Upon information and belief, Plaintiff alleges as follows:
`13. Palmdale Regional Medical Center (“Palmdale”) is an acute care facility
`located in Palmdale, California. Palmdale is a wholly owned subsidiary of Universal
`Health Services, Inc. (“Universal Health”).
`14. During the period of 2008 to 2019, Finstein was employed as the
`Director of Plant Operations at Palmdale.
`15.
`In his position as Director of Plant Operations, Finstein was responsible
`for coordinating and overseeing the construction and maintenance work performed at
`Palmdale, including work performed by outside vendors.
`16. Finstein also was responsible for reviewing invoices submitted by
`vendors and issuing authorizations for Palmdale to pay such invoices.
`17. From 2008 to 2019, Finstein engaged in a scheme with the other
`Defendants whereby he approved invoices that resulted in payments to the other
`Defendants despite knowing that such individuals and/or their business entities did
`not perform the services or provide the products to Palmdale listed on the invoices.
`A. RM Power’s Fraudulent Invoices.
`18. On behalf of Palmdale, Finstein retained a vendor identified as “RM
`Power” to perform services for Palmdale.
`19. RM Power is and was the business alias of Defendant Richard Yanik.
`20. At all relevant times, Finstein and Yanik were personal friends.
`21. From 2009 through 2018, Yanik, under the alias RM Power, provided
`invoices to Palmdale for various services that he represented had been performed and
`had benefited Palmdale, including but not exclusively carpentry, storm drain clean-
`outs, electrical work, and valve replacements.

`
`Case 2:21-cv-10046 Document 1 Filed 12/31/21 Page 4 of 11 Page ID #:4
`
`
`22. Neither Yanik nor anyone on his behalf performed the services that were
`described in RM Power’s invoices.
`23. Finstein knew that Yanik did not perform the services that were
`described in RM Power’s invoices.
`24. Nevertheless, Finstein approved the invoices and authorized Palmdale to
`pay RM Power’s invoices, despite knowing that the invoices contained false
`information and that the services had not been provided.
`25. Upon receiving Finstein’s approval of the invoices, Palmdale paid RM
`Power (and, therefore, Yanik) for the amounts stated on the invoices.
`26. As a result, Palmdale improperly paid $66,816.33 to Yanik for services
`that RM Power and Yanik did not perform and Palmdale never received.
`B. MEKR Advance Systems’ Fraudulent Invoices.
`27. On behalf of Palmdale, Finstein retained a vendor identified as “MEKR
`Advance Systems” to perform services for Palmdale.
`28. MEKR Advance Systems also was the business alias of Yanik.
`29. From 2011 through 2018, Yanik, under the alias of MEKR Advance
`Systems, provided invoices to Palmdale for various services that he represented had
`been performed and had benefited Palmdale including coil cleaning, cooling tower
`cleaning, infrared inspections, automatic transfer switch maintenance, filter changes,
`line isolation testing, compressor replacement, master alarm replacement, fire pump
`replacement, and valve replacements.
`30. Neither Yanik nor anyone on his behalf performed the services that were
`described in MEKR Advance Systems’ invoices.
`31. Finstein knew that Yanik did not perform the services that were
`described in MEKR Advance Systems’ invoices.
`32. Nevertheless, Finstein approved the invoices and authorized Palmdale to
`pay MEKR Advance Systems’ invoices, despite knowing that the invoices contained
`false information and that the services had not been provided.

`
`
`33. Upon receiving Finstein’s authorization, Palmdale paid MEKR Advance
`Systems (and, therefore, Yanik) for the amounts stated on the invoices.
`34. As a result, Palmdale improperly paid $187,097.74 to Yanik for services
`that MEKR Advance Systems and Yanik did not perform and Palmdale never
`received.
`Patriot Building Services’ Fraudulent Invoices.
`C.
`35. On behalf of Palmdale, Finstein retained a vendor identified as “Patriot
`Building Services” to perform services and to provide products to Palmdale.
`36. Patriot Building Services is and was the business alias of Mathis.
`37. From 2011 through 2018, Mathis, under the alias of Patriot Building
`Services, provided invoices to Palmdale for various products, supplies and services
`that he represented had been performed and had benefited Palmdale, including but not
`exclusively line isolation testing, condensate for steam boilers, return line treatment,
`oxygen scavengers, degreaser, and hand cleaner.
`38. Neither Mathis nor anyone on his behalf performed the services or
`provided the products that were described in Patriot Building Services’ invoices.
`39. Finstein knew that Mathis did not perform the services that were
`described in Patriot Building Services’ invoices.
`40. Nevertheless, Finstein approved the invoices and authorized for
`Palmdale to pay Patriot Building Supplies’ invoices, despite knowing that the invoices
`contained false information and the products, supplies and services had not been
`provided.
`41. Upon receiving Finstein’s authorization, Palmdale paid Patriot Building
`Services (and, therefore, Mathis) for the amounts stated on the invoices.
`42. As a result, Palmdale improperly paid $147,573.09 to Mathis for
`products, supplies and services that Patriot Building Services and Mathis did not
`provide or perform and products that Palmdale never received.

`
`PBS Fire Protection Services’ Fraudulent Invoices.
`D.
`43. On behalf of Palmdale, Finstein retained a vendor identified as “PBS Fire
`Protection Services” to perform services for Palmdale.
`44. PBS Fire Protection Services also was the business alias of Mathis.
`45. From 2011 through 2018, Mathis, under the alias of PBS Fire Protection
`Services, provided invoices to Palmdale for various services that he represented had
`been performed and had benefited Palmdale including but not exclusively monthly
`testing of the fire alarm system, line isolation testing, telescoping replacement, ground
`fault repair, and valve and pump replacements.
`46. Neither Mathis nor anyone on his behalf performed the services that were
`described in PBS Fire Protection Services’ invoices.
`47. Finstein knew that Mathis did not perform the services that were
`described in PBS Fire Protection Services’ invoices.
`48. Nevertheless, Finstein approved the invoices and authorized Palmdale to
`pay PBS Fire Protection Services’ invoices, despite knowing that the invoices
`contained false information and that the services had not been provided.
`49. Upon receiving Finstein’s authorization, Palmdale paid PBS Fire
`Protection Services (and, therefore, Mathis) for the amounts stated on the invoices.
`50. As a result, Palmdale improperly paid $262,455.00 to Mathis for services
`that PBS Fire Protection Services and Mathis did not perform, and Palmdale never
`received.
`E. DOES 1-20
`51. Persons and companies currently unknown to National Union despite

`participated in the fraudulent activities identified above.

`
`
`Palmdale’s Discovery of the Scheme and Its Investigation.
`F.
`53. On January 3, 2019, Finstein approved Invoice No. 20910 from RM
`Power, allegedly pertaining to electrical services in the amount of $10,149.66.
`54. Later that day, Finstein stated to a co-worker that he would request that
`RM Power reduce the amount of the invoice to an amount less than $10,000.00 so
`that it would not raise any concerns or questions from Palmdale’s management.
`55. As a result of the conversation with the co-worker, Palmdale initiated an
`investigation into the invoices and determined that RM Power never rendered such
`services to Palmdale.
`56. On January 4, 2019, Finstein resubmitted the invoice for payment, but
`this time in the amount of $9,749.64.
`57. Palmdale thereafter broadened its investigation to analyze all vendors
`retained by Finstein and all invoices approved by Finstein.
`58. On January 12, 2019, Finstein notified Palmdale that he resigned from
`his employment with Palmdale.
`59. On January 24, 2019, Palmdale retained Crowe LLP (“Crowe”) to
`perform a forensic investigation into the vendors and invoicing handled by Finstein.
`60. Crowe’s investigation determined that Finstein authorized the payment
`of invoices for services that he knew were not performed and for products that he
`knew Palmdale never received.
`61. Crowe’s investigation produced information demonstrating that Yanik,
`Mathis, and others submitted false invoices to Palmdale that Finstein approved, and
`that Palmdale paid.
`62. Crowe’s investigation concluded that Palmdale suffered a loss in the
`total amount of $663,942.16 because of the false invoicing scheme.
`63. Palmdale paid Crowe $105,544.03 for Crowe’s services, further
`contributing to Palmdale’s loss.

`
`
`Palmdale’s Claim to National Union.
`G.
`64. National Union issued a policy of insurance (the “Policy”) to Universal
`Health and its subsidiaries, including Palmdale, in which National Union agreed to
`insure Universal Health and its subsidiaries for losses sustained due to employee
`dishonesty.
`65. Pursuant to the Policy, National Union indemnified Universal Health for
`the losses that Palmdale sustained because of the false invoicing scheme perpetrated
`by Finstein, Yanik, Mathis and others.
`66. Accordingly, National Union has become subrogated to Universal
`Health and Palmdale.
`67. Additionally, Universal Health executed an agreement on behalf of itself
`and Palmdale, assigning to National Union all of the rights claims, and causes of
`action that they had against Finstein, Yanik, Mathis and any others who may have
`participated in or benefited from the scheme.
`COUNT ONE - FRAUD
`(Finstein Only)
`68. By approving invoices for services that had not been performed and
`products that had not been provided, Finstein misrepresented facts to Palmdale.
`69. Finstein intended for Palmdale to rely on his approvals so that Palmdale
`would pay the fraudulent invoices.
`70. Palmdale justifiably relied on Finstein’s approvals.
`71. As a direct and proximate result, Palmdale suffered damages in the
`principal amount of $769,486.19.
`COUNT TWO - FRAUD
`(Yanik, Mathis, DOES 1-20)
`72. Yanik, Mathis, and DOES 1-20 misrepresented facts to Palmdale by
`submitting invoices to Palmdale that listed services or products that never were
`provided to Palmdale.

`
`
`73. Yanik, Mathis, and DOES 1-20 created and submitted the invoices
`knowing that the listed services or products never were provided to Palmdale.

`the invoices.
`76. As a direct and proximate result, Palmdale suffered damages in the
`principal amount of $769,486.19.
`COUNT THREE – CONVERSION
`(All Defendants)
`77. Palmdale owned and rightfully possessed its funds, totaling the specific
`and identifiable sum of $663,942.16.
`78. Defendants wrongfully exercised dominion over Palmdale’s funds by
`submitting false invoices and causing the funds to be placed in the possession of the
`Defendants.
`79. Defendants’ actions caused Palmdale’s funds to be wrongfully removed
`from Palmdale’s possession and inconsistent with Palmdale’s rights therein.
`80. As a direct and proximate result, Palmdale suffered damages in the
`principal amount of $769,486.19.
`COUNT FOUR – BREACH OF THE DUTY OF LOYALTY
`(Finstein Only)
`81. As an employee of Palmdale, Finstein owed Palmdale a duty of loyalty.
`82. Finstein repeatedly and systematically breached his duty of loyalty to
`Palmdale by authorizing the payment of invoices, despite knowing that such invoices
`listed services and products that never were provided to Palmdale.
`83. As a direct and proximate result, Palmdale suffered damages in the
`principal amount of $769,486.19.
