Ivan called me on 12/4 and reported that the suspect in burning his house is predicted to plead guilty on Friday, 12/6. If this occurs, Ivan's insurance company will be able to release his proceeds. Meanwhile, Ivan is still homeless, staying in temporary shelter. Your concerns and good wishes are appreciated. Eric W.
