<p class="MsoNormal">Ms. McArthur,<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Your brothers have been kept informed of probate proceedings. They are not being represented by our office in this matter. When someone has attended a telephonic court hearing at our office, it was at your father’s request to accompany
him. This is the same as if they attended a court hearing at the courthouse and sat in the gallery to listen prior to Covid limitations. No special treatment has been provided.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The Declarations you attached to your earlier email are from a different court matter. In addition, the declarations do not indicate representation. A declaration is a factual assertion made by an individual about information that may
be helpful for the court’s consideration of an issue.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In addition, you have taken adversarial positions towards the estate and against me individually. Therefore, no, I cannot provide you with any assistance on your motions, or provide you with any representation.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thank you,<u></u><u></u></p>
