Thu 6 Feb 2025 12 13 04 0500 Re External Re Reimbursement Of Outstanding Fees 2740 Grov 194Dc403 2¶

The Banks and Riedel firm was billed $2853 for the transcript.
Brett/Stewart did not reimburse anything.
I paid half ($1,426.60) to  Banks and Riedel, preventing interest charges
on the full amount.
The  Banks and Riedel firm are still owed $1,426.60 for the remaining
outstanding bill balance.
