ORDER FOR DISBURSEMENT
OF HELD FUNDS

The above captioned matter came before the Court on September 7, 2010 for
consideration of a settlement agreement entered and reached in the case involving a life
insurance policy issued on the deceased wife of Vernond Davis, who was the mother of
two minor children. In that hearing, two claims against Davis were discussed, one of
which was paid directly from the settlement proceeds. The balance of the other claim was
by Robert Porter in the amount of Five Thousand Six Hundred Ninety Seven and 44/100
($5,697.44) dollars, and those funds were deposited to the Court Registry because Davis
disputed the validity of the claim.
Davis and Porter have reached a settlement as shown by Consent Motion filed and
pending before the Court. It appearing to the Court that the relief sought as appropriate,
IT IS ORDERED, that the funds held by the Registry of the District Court be
disbursed with $1,500.00 sent to Weissenstein Law Firm, LLC, as attorney for Vernond
