And now, of course, my lawyer informed us, that's kind of strange.

Because usually, if there's any type of forfeiture going on, you're supposed to be notified by letter in writing that that's what's happening.

We did not receive any notification to that effect.

We definitely would have remembered being notified, by the way, not only are we taking this, you're not getting it back.

So we do feel that proper procedure was not followed there.

But I mean, essentially, we were told,

Sucks to suck.

And we are still trying to pursue avenues.

Oh, yes.

Yes.

I'm sorry.

I'm way more in the weeds of this stuff than I would ever want to be.

But yes, Southern District, New York.

Oh, I mean, as it was happening, it was like being stabbed in the chest.

But I guess, you know, the benefit of us being removed over a year from this actually happening is that I'm at least able to talk about it without, like you said, breaking down, screaming, trying to break things.

But I guess what...

What's important also to note is that even though Tenet was painted as this propaganda operation, these were our savings that we had kind of invested in the company, that we were trying to grow our company.

The money that they seized involved money that we had gotten from TPUSA contracts, contracts with the Blaze.

that they had all, it was seized.

And what was also frustrating is that even though we weren't being charged with anything, we asked at the time if it would be possible for us to get some of that money back and put it toward representation for the company and for ourselves, which my lawyer says sometimes if they feel like being nice, they'll let you do.
