Case Number: ****6178    Hearing Date: January 14, 2020    Dept: 5

Superior Court of California

County of Los Angeles

Department 5

LAUREN MINISTER,

Plaintiff,

v.

IVANA PRINCE, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No.: ****6178

[TENTATIVE] order RE:

petition to approve compromise of pending action

The Court has reviewed the petition by Petitioner Sam Minister (“Petitioner”) on behalf of Claimant Lauren Minister (“Claimant”). Petitioner proposes to invest $285,000 in a single-payer deferred annuity, and $157,126.60 in a special needs trust. The Court has the following concerns:

1. The Court does not have sufficient information concerning Claimant’s ongoing care needs to determine whether this is appropriate. In other words, Petitioner should provide information concerning whether the portion in the special needs trust will cover Claimant’s ongoing needs, since the amount in the single-payer annuity may not be accessed easily.

2. The Court is concerned that placing this annuity in Claimant’s name may deprive her of government benefits (e.g., Social Security and MediCal benefits). The Court is concerned that placing this annuity in someone else’s name would mean that the Court would not have oversight over Claimant’s settlement. Therefore, the Court would like Petitioner to address this concern.

The Court continues this hearing to January 24, 2020, at 1:30 p.m. to afford Petitioner an opportunity to address these issues. Petitioner may file a supplemental declaration in advance of the hearing. Petitioner shall provide notice and file proof of such with the Court.

DATED: January 9, 2020 ___________________________
