left anything left to be a state mr stevens the only thing we know of is albert's agreement to pay fifty thousand dollars or less as part of the settlement plus twelve percent interest which today is around ninety thousand dollars and th they were taking care of him for two years the only money she had was from the silver house which was one hundred and thirteen thousand dollars which she put into a joint account with them so when the time bit of her death she had no money but you know what it is don't want to bet anything and th loni just are was making on behalf of himself individually and on behalf of the siblings of albert my mind aren't there like five of them  of intentional infliction of this emotional distress date date they prevailed on some of the killings and that was a four claim against you know that but they still agreed to pay fifty thousand hours correct but they reserve estate whether you consider it militias prosecution or not it's we we say that it was negligent and a tort for which the and mistreated her can be sued for individually based on vermont statute and the statute simply provides that an executor or administrator is individually liable for his torts and then and actually can be brought up in a court of competent jurisdiction and same sort of statute which was she she the the district court i think held that you do have a right but you've got to do it within the context of the probate proceedings and that's not what the statute says a status as a court  a court could be it and a court which you can take it to but it's not necessary it's a separate claim outside of the administration of the estate it's a it's an action in tort and it doesn't affect anything to do with the administration of the estate it's a it's an action in persona against the administrator so continue with your argument if we don't agree with you fifteen count complaint nine of which counts were dismissed on summary judgment whether it's mal missed malicious prosecution or maladministration i believe it was negligence on his part lawsuit was negligent or not as opposed to list prosecution that would someone else bring that type of action when there is no evidence that there are any assets available or that there is any evidence that my clients took anything we can't hear you administrator chester in filomena's a state since two thousand and four over sixteen years ago once apparently at least four different attorneys over fifteen of the sixteen years i'd like to fully retire and within the law in your jurisdiction i see your assistance in achieving that goal and not only affirming judge rice's summary judgment decision but by having grounds for that decision on two of the three claims  i have taken on some other small matter will terminate but but but i would like to as i said by i'd like to fully retire but st i want to  court demonstrate this to any reasonable mine i would like to address a comment that was made by justice pooler judge pooler this is not a case of waste start estate that was a basis of the underlying action there is free to citizens there are three decisions that demonstrate that the claims of the plaintiffs are baseless video tape depositions and all the discovery that whiny chester had obtained before the what i hearings in two thousand and five from bank records in massachusetts and vermont as well as in michigan so we had to judge ben's decision which is conclusive as a probable cause because you only need one claim in  lawsuit to demonstrate probable cause which forecloses any any claim of lack of probable cause and in addition you have the approval order of november two terminated yet and in fact it has and it's still open however it's very unclear the probable cause was conclusive there and i want to hear in the issue of maladministration we agree with  judge rice everything she said was true and when you look at what the plaintiffs have done they have said ok we're going to lose on our malicious prosecution we're going to lose o in view of the phallus decision once the that in the court the brass from court only recognizes two forms of action based on an underlying action malicious prosecution or abuse of process and they at the statute that he cites it doesn't speak of any civil action yes he has a right to bring malicious prosecution yes he has a right to bring abuse of process if he recognize as the novel maladministration you would find that in the statute in addition there's no reported case referencing that particular statute and if you really closely examine it independent of the major point it doesn't say when and who way here as a court or as judge pooler recently pointed out where what was the competent court of jurisdiction but the real point here is your honor maladministration under under i believe in cases called faust is not a there plainly and i think this is the most important point several aside and assume jurisdiction and there is a cause of action as they've defined under fifty six c they have not in any manner provided proof of that they haven't shown anything under fifty six e the consequent const administration they define it is merely filing the suit will merely filing the suit is consistent with your finish jerry duty you can't create that into a civil wrong thank you  the well what was left was his claims administrator which got settled but all i'm saying is one part of the case which was a different part was intentional infliction of a distress claim which got thrown out so there was primary thing is the brain of the lawsuit that it was the st of all it was based on ducking kill morton's affidavit as to how much was owed i mean that was the evidence but many of that i mean clearly
