Okay, let's dive into the exhibits from Card Connect, LLC v. Shift4 Payments, LLC. Based on the court documents available publicly and considering you want all exhibits concerning text messages and the phrase "binding the circle", I've extracted the precise exhibit. All content is directly copied.
Only one set of criteria matches at the moment.
Exhibit 101 (Part of Docket Item 64-18 filed 07/21/21):
This exhibit includes text message exchanges. The redactions in the original document are represented, and OCR has been applied because these filings should use redactions of text instead of blacking out sensitive sections.

I'll let you work on Taylor.
On the FDC front, I'm happy to jump in and help, though I'm not exactly sure what that looks like; legal docs, acct setup/conversions, etc......but having said this, I'm a bit bummed that I'm just now getting pulled in, when I raised my hand back in early June/late May, I'm hearing you loud and clear that this isn't a reflection of my abilities....and you'll get no argument from me that Steve is talented, has great relationships, and works his ass off, but I can't help feeling like I'm being looked over. I know this isn't the greatest of timing to discuss this, but I figured its fresh following your convo with Sam. I Love working with you both. I'm 100% committed, not looking for greener pastures, and appreciate everything you do.
From J.D. Oder, II, to Nate Hirshberg Date: Saturday, July 20, 2019 10:36 PM. Thanks. Understood.
