As alleged in the Complaint, Defendant Frank Staggers and his wife, Teresa 

Hughes were listed as the Joint Owners of the Annuity. The application identifies 

the Primary Beneficary of the Annuity as the “Estate of Frank Staggers and Teresa 

Hughes 100%.” ANICO is informed and believes that the defendants are asserting 

competing claims regarding the annuity benefits. 

Upon receipt of the sum, $107,989.55, plus accrued interest to the date of the 

deposit, the Clerk of this Court is requested to deposit the sum into an interestbearing account until such time as the Court makes its order directing disbursement 

and distribution of these funds. 

Good cause appearing, the Court hereby ORDERS as follows: 

(1) ANICO is authorized to deposit the sum of $107,989.55, plus accrued 

interest to the date of the deposit, with the United States District Court, Norhtern 

District, no later than thirty days from the date of this order. 

(2) The Clerk of this Court shall deposit the sum of $107,989.55, plus 

accrued interest to the date of the deposit, into an interest-bearing account until 

such time as the Court makes its order directing disbursement and distribution of 

these funds.
