I am not sure where to post this, admins can move it appropriate section if needed.
I checked kids probate notes, hearing coming soon.
Its good to be lawyer:bugeyed they are asking 54,290 atty fees for period of 7/23/12 to 10/10/12. I think they should be sent to Janet, Randy Rebbie, Jermaine and others who started the whole mess!

Funny that when TJ's atty talked with Anthony Jackson about visitation right, MJ estate is asked to pay for it?
I wonder if I change a few words with TJ's atty regarding kids, will they bill the estate from that too?
