Plaintiff,

v. ORDER

RONALD STREMEL GREENWELL, an

individual, RANDEE J. BRADY,

an individual; CARLA ROBBINS

LEWIS, an individual,

Defendants.

----oo0oo----

On January 19, 2007, Coral Lou Sehara and the Marshall &

Ilsley Trust requested that the Court resolve certain disputed

issues in order to effectuate the terms of the parties’

Settlement Agreement filed with the Court on November 28, 2006,

as well as the previous Settlement Agreement reached following

mediation before the Hon. Cecily Bond (Ret.) on March 8, 2006. 

Simultaneous briefing was ordered on said issues, to be submitted

not later than April 4, 2007. The Court has now received and

reviewed that briefing.

There are three items in question: 1) the Van Campen

account; 2) earnings on $20,000.00 allocated to Ron Greenwell

under Trust B; 3) two AMEX Life Insurance Policy loans taken out

by Adeline Greenwell totaling $150,000.00 ($80,000.00 in

approximately August of 2002 and $70,000.00 taken between 1995

and 1997). While the parties now agree that the Van Campen

account issue has been resolved, Coral Lou contends that

adjustments to the final trust accounting, and proposed

distribution amounts, must be made to account for earnings

attributable to Ron Greenwell on his $20,000.00 trust asset as

well as the aforementioned AMEX Life Insurance Policy loans.

Having signed Settlement Agreements in March and November of

2006 that resolved all issues between the parties, and that

contained (with respect to the March 8, 2006 Agreement) a

California Civil Code § 1542 waiver as to both known and unknown

claims, Coral Lou Sehara cannot in the wake of those Agreements

resurrect additional items she now claims to be disputed. The

comprehensive settlement between the parties plainly encompassed

the matters now raised by Ms. Sehara, and her arguments to the

contrary border on the frivolous.

Marshall & Ilsley Trust is hereby directed to submit a

proposed distribution to the Court consistent with this Order not

later than Monday, June 11, 2007. Remaining trust assets shall

be distributed in accordance with the accounting contained

therein to the trust beneficiaries.

Coral Lou Sehara shall make a payment to Trust A as an equalizing

adjustment for excess distributions she has already received in

accordance with the newly revised proposed distribution and

accounting not later than thirty (30) days following her receipt

of that proposed distribution and accounting.

A Status Conference in this matter is hereby set for

September 14, 2007 at 9:00 a.m. A Joint Status Conference

Statement shall be filed with the Court not later than fourteen

(14) days beforehand. 

Failure to comply with this Order, and the Court’s previous

Orders in this case, may subject the offending party to

sanctions, including but not limited to imposition of attorney’s

fees. Counsel are strongly advised by the Court to advise their

respective clients of the potential consequences of noncompliance

with this Court’s orders. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: May 25, 2007
