RE: KEVrs1 LANDAU

June 5, 2014

To Whom It May Concern:

Please be advised that Kevin Landau has demonstrated continuous sustained full sobriety since March 26, 2011. He has remained very well focused on his sober lifestyle and professional goals. Mr. Landau has remained fully cooperative with treatment and everything that has been asked of him, in order to remain fully compliant. Mr. Landau showed me the report he received that appears to reflect difficulty with the interlock device on his vehicle for the date of May 2, 2014. I believe that Mr. Landau has remained fully sober and that his intent was

to cooperate with that screening. As the device was new to him, I believe it is possible that he was still learning how to use it, that his asthma might have impeded that effort, or that there was a misread by the device. It would be incongruent with Mr. Landau’s demeanor and history for him to have been uncooperative with the expectation for him to appropriately use the interlock device. Mr. Landau has been doing very well in therapy and his o   continued full compliance is anticipated. It is hoped that the aberration of that one date will be viewed within the context of a clearly ongoing successful recovery. As Mr. Landau remains mindful of his recovery needs, his prognosis remains excellent. Should you need to reach me, with appropriate consent, my direct line is 248 6335003.

Sincerely,

Psychotherapist/Behavioral Health Therapist
