David,
Attached is the agreement you signed which states that you agreed to move from the apartment within 60 days of
Shirley's death. Of course, you didn't do that and now your share of the trust will be diminished by the legal fees and
costs associated with evicting you.

Subject: Settlement Agreement - David Valentine
This is the same Settlement Agreement I sent you before. David and his attorney negotiated and signed it and the court
approved it.
It clearly states that David must move after Shirley's death. Which he refused to do. I need to go to court to enforce him
moving. When we complete the final Account and distribution, we will ask for surcharges against Victor and David for
them refusing to move.
David will have cash from the Trust and cash from the sale of the apartments. After your fees, you can dump him on the
Public Guardian who will drool at the cash and find a way to take the case. They do have LPS cases and
Conservatorship cases.

Hi Cheryl,
The day we met at the courthouse I expressed some concerns about Frumeh's interests for the property not alighting with
Davids interests. You told me, "oh, Frumeh would never do that.."
Can you please tell me how you know Frumeh and how you know her attorney Marlene?
Ryan
First, I have no idea what question you asked me that related “to David’s
interests” that I responded “Frumeh would never do that.” I have a vague
recollection that the apartment David and Victor lived in was in the building
next door to the one they were given by the trust, and there was some
agreement between all parties that they had to move, but I have no idea of
the particulars. You will have to ask David and his attorney about this, if that
is what you are referring to.
Second, Frumeh and I are in the same business, both private professional
fiduciaries often appointed by the court, and our paths do cross from time to time.
Third, I do know Marlene Seltzer, as I do many attorneys in this field, due to
similar practice areas of trusts/probate/conservatorships.
