PROPOSED

ORDER

I, Muriel B. Kaplan , declare under penalty of perjury that:

1. I am the attorney for the plaintiffs in the above-entitled action.

2. On or about October 12, 2005, this Court issued a Writ of Execution in favor of

Plaintiffs in the amount of $64,120.22, plus 6% per annum interest until satisfied. The Writ was

based on estimates, in the absence of Defendant’s reporting of actual amounts due to Plaintiffs.

3. Levies were issued under the Writ, and some payments received and credited.

Defendant subsequently provided reports so that actual amounts due to Plaintiffs could be

determined. Defendant recently advised Plaintiffs that funds were now available to satisfy the Writ,

and requested the amount now due for its satisfaction, and requested that the levy be released so the

payment of the $55,574.37 balance due to satisfy the Writ could be made to Plaintiffs.

4. Plaintiffs provided Defendant with a detailed breakdown of the amounts remaining due,

and issued the attached letter of November 23, 2005 to the levied Bank of the West and to

Defendant.

5. The bank required that my office obtain authorization from the US Marshal to release

the levy for an amount less than the Writ. The Marshal’s office now requires that the attached letter

to the bank be “certified” by the court, to authorize its authority to the bank, based on the attached

letter. (See Exhibit A)

6. Plaintiffs therefore respectfully request that the court order compliance with the

attached letter of November 23.2005 to the Bank of the West, to make payment to the US Marshal’s

office, of $55,574.37 made payable to the “Northern California Glaziers Trust Funds” as stated

in the letter to it dated November 23, 2005, and to thereafter release Plaintiffs’ levy as stated in the

letter.
