"I think the judge was very fair, and I am afraid the bookeeping was found to be insufficient. The judge set a pre-trial conference for May 2nd to determine if the co-conservators are fit to continue to administer the estate, and for a FULL accounting of the estate.
It interested me that the judge was completely up to speed on Bob's missing person's case which has been reclassified as a homicide." (sniped)

So, yes, we all hope that the records are in order next week. My question is, why is this considered a trial? Is this civil or criminal?
