This Court is aware that Counsel’s Spouse battled Stage IV breast cancer 

which metastasized initially to her liver and continued to progress with tumors in her 

lungs, spine and brain. After exhausting all known chemotherapy treatments over 

18 months ago and surviving on willful determination and profound faith alone 

Counsel’s wife has succumbed to her illness. On September 30, 2016 Counsel 

gently held his wife as she relinquished her fight and passed away. Counsel 

required time to deal with providing the appropriate respect to his spouse and to 

assist his two elementary school age children return to a normal routine. 

Counsel sincerely apologizes to the court for any inconvenience this may 

have had upon it or its staff.
