the $70000 to the Harry by the settlement monies in their trust account to the Horne Accounting

part of her mother will and want some of the money and her brother refuses to do s and need
whole will and testaments himself and you file the case. The notice is come twice for the hearing
that is to be heard by the Justice Zayn. You are so busy with the work that you forget to tell Sally
about the hearing and don’t went to the court on the date of the hearing and the judge was not
