Howard's scam only netted about $150 million and he had to share that with several other people.
A guy sho stole over a billion dollars probably won't waste his time playing for small stakes with a petty thief like Howard.

Apparently he could have used Howard's lawyers though.... plus who calls another man "The Don"... self respect people.
