Any settlement amount must be held until how the funds are to be distributed is determined. These funds are not deposited in a party’s named account. Is that your concern - that you do not have access yet to settlement funds?

Thank you

You’re welcome, Tatiana. I appreciate the thanks.

I hope that, whatever the cause of the delay in releasing settlement funds is, it is easily explained to you by your attorney and results in a distribution to you soon.
