True, Kat, but don't you think an attorney might be able to belp expedite
the process? My experiences with lawyers has not been the best, in large

things along. At the very least it demonstrates that one is serious about
the matter.

There's usually an avenue of appeal that Ken can take advantage of that
doesn't require an attorney. I would think that would be the case here,
