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
