BTW, the "BS" comment was not directed at you or your on scene report! My guess is that the rumor is coming from the prosecution's side.
No problem. At times I wonder if detailed settlement rumors like the one I heard are put out there to cause all sides to discuss a settlement without anyone leading the charge.
I do not see this particular group of lawyers often, so I do not know when an update might be available. I will listen carefully at this week's rec league baseball games, Scout meetings and swim practice and report anything I hear of merit.
