              lost you'll send another check using a different carrier.

                    <p class="MsoNormal">Good morning colleagues:</p>
                    <p class="MsoNormal">I would like your input
                      regarding an estate distribution from my IOLTA.
                      This was a difficult probate with many issues. I
                      ended up with the estate proceeds in my IOLTA
                      instead of an estate account, hence my making the
                      final distributions and not the PR. I sent out the
                      IOLTA checks certified mail RRR, 10 total. These
                      went out all at the same time on August 25<sup>th</sup>
                      and I personally brought them to the post office
                      and watched the clerk process each one. All but
                      one has gotten to the beneficiaries. The
                      beneficiary of the one that hasn’t arrived is
                      furious and demanding. The beneficiary has
                      confirmed that the address I mailed it to is
                      correct.  The post office tracking # says the
                      package is still on its way, but it’s going to be
                      arriving late. It was last scanned 9/4. I do not
                      have confidence that if this person received two
                      checks that they wouldn’t try and negotiate both
                      of them despite being advised of a stop-payment.
                      And, the bank itself says that stop-payments are
                      not fool proof. The remaining money in the account
                      is not mine, but other clients, so I am hesitant
                      to stop-payment right now and send another check
                      or wire the money this soon. It hasn’t yet been
                      two weeks. I am inclined to tell the beneficiary
                      that they are going to have to be patient as it is
                      still showing as being in the system headed for
                      delivery. I anticipate this response will not be
                      well received. Am I being unreasonable?
