in the United States, the brain surgeon’s attorney said today. "I have been having conferences with Miss Bergman's counsel,” Attorney Isaac Pacht said. “I want to get this matter cleared if ‘possible, before going to trial so there will be no contest. we will win our point in court.’ The suit was filed two months ‘ago after the doctor and the Swedish’ film star agreed to share Pla’s custody. Trial date has not yet been set. Less than a day later, Bergman's lawyer, Greg Bautzer; said he understood this settlement gave her the right to take the girl abroad.” Mr. Pacht denied this. and both attorneys said they would not abandon their position. | But Mr. Bautzer said he “didn't know anything was delaying the trial except that it just hadn't

come on the calendar yet.”

Dr, Lindstrom filed the suit here because he refused to recognize his wife's Mexican proxy divorce. Miss Bergman recently married Movie Director Roberto Rosseini, father of her infant son, in a Mexican proxy ceremony.
