<p class="MsoNormal">I read no requirement to have a separate envelope for each lien. If there is competent testimony about what the envelope included, I think you are OK. On the other hand, you avoid a fact issue of the other side saying that a particular
lien or liens was/were not included. Although they could still argue that the envelope was empty. The likelihood of selling the empty envelope argument will be tough when one side says I put it/them in there and mailed it, and the other side says that it
was not there. Still a fact issue.<o:p></o:p></p>
