The reason for two separate entries is because each day of the trial needed to have its transcript requested separately.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">On March 15th, an order was entered for another trial, to take place on July 2nd of 2024. No reason, or explanation, is given.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">On April 18th, two proposed orders are entered, both regarding briefing deadlines (presumably for the July 2nd trial).</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Also on April 18th, there's a motion (and notice of motion) to allow Stephen Chenault (of Troll Lord Games) to view "The Castle," and to order monthly payments of the personal representative's fees (i.e. the fees of Steven Koch, who has been acting as the executor of Gary's estate). Presumably "The Castle" is the material relating to Castle Greyhawk in Gary's estate, but it's not entirely clear (does this mean that Troll Lord will be publishing Castle Greyhawk soon?). Two affidavits, one for Stephen Chenault and one for Steven Koch, are also entered.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">On May 2nd, a brief is entered by the petitioner (i.e. Luke Gygax) in support of motion (presumably Stephen Chenault's aforementioned motion to view "The Castle"), with an affidavit subsequently entered on May 6th.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">On May 20th, notice is entered that two additional transcripts have been filed; one is from the motion hearing on August 10th, 2023, and the other is from the motion hearing on September 26th, 2023.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">On May 29th, Gail Gygax files a brief in opposition to the petitioner's motion (which sounds like she's opposing Luke's support for Stephen Chenault to view "The Castle").</li> </ul>Finally, I'd like to go ahead and make a personal note here: the request to make full transcripts of the trial that was conducted on April 19th-20th, 2023 was mine. What I didn't expect was for those transcripts to be so lengthy (or to cost so much), which coupled with a lack of free time on my end, has stymied my ability to review those transcripts in any sort of timely manner.As such, given that these are a matter of public record, I'm going to release them here for anyone to look at, in hope that the community will get more use out of them than I have so far. Please let us know in this thread if there are any particularly salient points in here!EDIT: To be as clear as possible, the two files below are for each day of the trial; one is for April 19th, and the other is for April 20th.</blockquote>
