? Lawyers for a Long Island kosher catering company want the Nassau District Attorney to investigate what they claim is an attempt at extortion. Tom Cataldo, a former general manager of Morrell Caterers, says he was forced to prepare kosher and non-kosher meals in the same kitchen. A former cook backed up the claim and provided pictures.
However, lawyers for Scott Morrell deny the allegations and claim it is an attempt to ruin Morrell?s business because he would not drop a lawsuit against a former business associate.
