In Re: Conservatorship of
Wayne Robert Enos,                                           EX PARTE ORDER ALLOWING FOR
                                                                   PAYMENT OF CLAIM
                            Protected Person.

The Petition of Mary Lou Johnson, President of A&G Business Services, LLC dated May 29, 2020
seeking an Ex Parte Order Allowing for Payment of Claim came before this Court on
  May 29                              , 2020. Based upon the contents of the Petition, and the
filings herein, The Court makes the following:

                                        FINDINGS OF FACT

   1. A&G Business Services, LLC (A&G) was appointed as Conservator for Wayne Robert Enos
      pursuant to Court Order dated September 26, 2019 (“Order”).

   2. A&G Business Services received an invoice from attorney Tom Satrom related to various
      estate planning matters handled for the Protected Person over a period of nearly two
      years. Mr. Satrom represented the protected person in an ongoing capacity for nearly
      30 years.

   3. Attorney Satrom’s initial invoice is for a total of $6,804.38. A copy of this invoice,
      together with a letter in support of its payment from attorney Satrom was filed
      confidentially with the Court.

   4. Both A&G Business Services and counsel for A&G Business Services reviewed the invoice
      and discussed the services rendered with Attorney Satrom. In response to a request to
      adjust the charges for some of the services rendered, attorney Satrom agreed to
      discount a portion of the bill. That letter and enclosure was filed confidentially with the
      Court. The total balance after adjustments is $6,047.38.

   5. According to Minnesota Statutes 524.5-429, the majority of the Satrom bill is entitled to
      a lower priority for payment than other debts or claims against the Protected Person.
      However, the Protected Person has sufficient assets to pay this debt, does not have
      unpaid claims or debts having priority that will go unpaid if this debts is paid, and the
      conservatorship is not at risk of insolvency if this bill is paid.
                                         30-PR-19-81




   6. The work performed by attorney Satrom on behalf on the Protected Person was for the
      Protected Person’s benefit and appropriate. As such, the amount of $6,047.38 should
      be paid to attorney Satrom from the Protected Person’s assets.

      Based on the foregoing Findings of Fact, the Court makes the following:

                                              ORDER

      NOW, THEREFORE, it is hereby Ordered that A&G Business Services, LLC is allwed to and
      shall make payment to Parker Satrom Law, P.A. in the amount of $6,047.38 as and for
      legal services rendered to the Protected Person.


BY THE COURT:
                                                                            Klossner, John (Judge)
                                                                            2020.05.29 15:21:08
                                                                            -05'00'
