I HAVE SPOKE OPEN THE THE OWNER IN HIS ABSENCE AND ALSO, TO THE CONTRACTOR AND THERE'S BEEN BACK AND FORTH IN DECEMBER AS TO WHAT PERMITS WERE REQUIREED OF THE MECHANICAL, AC PERMITS HAVE BEEN PERMITTED THOUGH. THAT'S NO LONGER AN ISSUE.

HIRING CONTRACTOR TO OBTAIN PERMITS FOR THIS?>> STEVE WEAVER IN JULY, HE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE TAKING CARE OF THIS AND HE SAID THAT HE, HE E-MAILED 15 MINUTES AGO THE PLANS TO KIM WEST AND ELIZABETH BE
BECK. >> SO SPECIAL MAGISTRATE, IF THE PLANS AND PERMIT APPLICATION WERE JUST E-MAILED TO US 15 MINUTES AGO, OBVIOUSLY WE'LL NEED TIME TO REVIEW THOSE AND TAKE THOSE IN PROPERLY FOR REVIEW.
THIS CASE WAS CONTINUED FROM LAST HEARING TO ALLOW OPPORTUNITY FOR PERMITS TO BE SUBMITTED SO THIS TIME I REQUEST THAT WE FIND AN ORDER DETERMINING VIOLATION TO PROVIDE 60 DAYS TO OBTAIN THE PERMIT AND COME MY WITH ALL PERMIT CONDITIONS OR A FINE OF $100 PER DAY IF ALL CORRECT DOCUMENTS HAVE BEEN SUBMITTED, 60 DAYS SHOULD BE SUFFICIENT.
>> YOU HIRED MR. WEAVER WHEN? >> IN JULY.

VIOLATIONS ON THE PROPERTY REQUIRES PERMIT FOR BUILDING CODE 105.1 PERMIT REQUIRED, OBTAIN PERMIT FOR WOOD FRAME STRUCTURE AND ROOF ADDED AROUND THE BUILDING AND ANY OTHER RENOVATION WORK BEING DONE WITHOUT A PERMIT. THE CITY REQUESTS THAT SPECIAL MAGISTRATE FINDS THE VIOLATION EXIST AND VIOLATORS BE GIVEN 60 DAYS TO OBTAIN APPROVAL FOR INSPECTIONS AT LEAST EVERY 180 DAYS UNDERSTAND THE I'LL THE PERMIT HAS BEEN CLOSED AND APPLY WITH OTHER VIE HAITIANS OBJE OBJE VIOLATIONS OR $100 A DAY WILL BE ASSESSED.
>> SIR, YOUR NAME? >> I'M KEITH HAMLE.
>> AND YOUR RELATIONSHIP TO THE PROPERTY?
>> IMAGE THE BUSINESS THAT'S LOCATED THERE.
I'M ACTUALLY IN COMPLETE CONTROL OF ANYTHING THAT HAPPENS THERE,
HOW DO YOU RESPOND TO THE ALLEGATIONS?
>> I GUESS WE STARTED WORK WITHOUT A PERMIT.
I MADE THAT DECISION MYSELF. >> WHERE ARE YOU NOW WITH REGARDS TO OBTAINING A PERMIT? > WELL, I WOULD THINK WE WOULD HAVE IT ANY DAY BECAUSE THE APPLICATION WAS MADE AND I'VE HAD COMMUNICATION WITH ELIZABETH ABOUT IT.
WE'VE HAD SOME HICCUP AS LONG THE WAY, JUST HARD TO GET ENGINEERS TO, THE ENGINEER THAT OUR CONTRACTOR HIRED, THEY'RE DOING LIKE REMOTE WORK AND THEY'RE NOT IN THEIRS OFS ANYMORE AND HE SAID, I JUST COULDN'T BELIEVE IT WAS THAT DIFFICULT, BUT WE DO HAVE THE PLANS AND THEY'RE UNDER REVIEW AND APPLICATION FOR A PERMIT HAS BEEN MADE AND I HAVE BEEN IN TOUCH WITH ELIZABETH A COUPLE OF TI TIMES. JUST BECAUSE, OUR CONTRACTOR DID NOT DO WHAT HE TOLD ME HE DID. HE WAS SUPPOSED TO HAVE THIS DONE IN DECEMBER. HE CLAIMS HE DID.
WELL, HE WAS PAID. BUT I STAYED WITH HIM ON IT.
I DIDN'T, I STAYED. I WAS IN CONSTANT CONTACT WITH HIM AND HE KEPT SAYING THE SAME THING.
I'VE DONE THE APPLICATION AND WE'RE JUST WAITING.
NOW APPARENTLY HE DOES HAVE IT IN THE PROCESS BECAUSE I MADE HIM GIVE ME THE RECEIPT BECAUSE I'D ALREADY PAID HIM.
I MADE HIM GIVE ME THE RECEIPT FOR THE APPLICATION AND I THINK WE SHOULD HAVE IT IN A FEW DAYS. AND WE DID STOP WORK.
WE ACTUALLY STOPPED BEFORE THAT. THERE WAS AN EXISTING STRUCTURE THERE. OUR BUSINESS IS GROWING SO MUCH THIS YEAR THAT WE WERE DEEMED AN ESSENTIAL BUSINESS, AND I THINK RIGHT NOW WE HAVE, I THINK PROBABLY 18 GUYS FROM FORT PIERCE THAT HAVE FULL-TIME EMPLOYMENT.
HAS YEAR, WE ACTUALLY WORKED SIX MONTHS STRAIGHT WITH NO WEEKENDS OFF. THAT'S BEEN HOW CRAZY OUR BUSINESS HAS BEEN. WE SERVICE THE GENERATOR INDUSTRY NATION-WIDE, AND THE STATE OF FLORIDA HELPED US A LOT WHEN THEY MADE AN EMERGENCY DECLARATION WANTING PEOPLE TO
[00:20:04]
SHELTER IN THEIR HOMES DURING HURRICANE SEEN SO-SO ALL OF OUR CUSTOMERS HAVE QUADRUPLED THEIR SALES AND WE HAVE TOO.I GOT AHEAD OF THE GAME. I FIGURED WE'D HAVE A PERMIT IN 30-DAYS. SO ANYWAY, IT'S AN APPLICATION NOW AND I THINK WE'RE GOING TO BE FINE.
>> NO, MA'AM. I HAVE SOME PICTURES IF YOU
WANT? >> OH, YES, IF YOU WANT TO
PRESENT THEM. >> I ASK THAT WE GO AHEAD AND
ENTER THEM INTO THE RECORD. >> CITY'S EXHIBIT ONE.
TO HAVE A CHANCE TO USE SPECIAL MAGISTRATE BEFORE WE PUT THEM
HAVE YOU SEEN THE PHOTOGRAPH? >> NO.
>> SHOW THEM TO HIM. YEP, THAT'S IT.
THAT DUMPSTER WAS JUST FOR CLEAN UP.
>> YOU DIDN'T TAKE THAT PICTURE? >> IT WAS A GOOD ONE.
WE WERE JUST CLEANING UP THE RIGHT-OF-WAY.
NOBODY EVER HAD AND WE WERE CLEANING IT UP AND MAKING IT NICE. OKAY?
>> IT STILL LOOKS LIKE THAT EXCEPT FOR IT'S CLEANER.
>> YOU WANT TO SEE THEM? >> NO, MA'AM.
>> THESE WILL BE IN THE CITY'S COMPOSITE ONE.
ANYTHING FURTHER? >> NO MA'AM.
THEN BASED ON THE EVIDENCE IN TESTIMONY PRESENTED I FIND THAT A VIOLATION EXISTED AT 3204 OHIO AVENUE AND SANCO LLC IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE VIOLATION. YOU'LL BE GIVEN 60 DAYS TO OBTAIN THE PERMIT, COMPLY WITH ALL PERMIT CONDITIONS, INCLUDING REGULAR SCHEDULED INSPECTIONS AND YOU'LL HAVE 180 DAYS TO GET THAT DONE, AND IF YOU NEED AN EXTENSION OF TIME, THREAT CITY KNOW. DO TOWEL THOSE OR A $100 FINE A
DAY WILL BE ASSESS AND YOU >> THE NEXT CASE IS 5P.

>> SPECIAL MAGISTRATE JUST FOR THE RECORD, THE PREVIOUS PHOTO WE HAVE FOR THE RECORD WILL SHOW THE RESPONDENT HAS LATTICE UP IN THE CARPORT. WE DON'T HAVE A RECORD OF THE CARPORT ENCLOSED WITH PLY WOOD WHICH IS WHY A PERMIT IS
REQUIRED. >> THAT ONE HAD PLY WOOD ON THAT
LITTLE FENCED IN OPEN. >> THAT'S THE PROPERTY FOR THAT PROPERTY SHOWING THE LATTICE ON THE CARPORT.
>> IT WILL BE ADMITTED AS CITY'S EXHIBIT.
TWO ANYTHING FURTHER? >> NO MA'AM.

[A. 18-2935 325 S 13th Street Dantilus, Jean Shaun Coss]
OKAY. NEXT CASE?>> THE NEXT CASE IS 65. CASE 182935, 325 SOUTH 13TH STR STREET.
THE PROPERTY IS OWNED BY JEAN DANTILUS OF 325 SOUTH 13TH STREET AND WAS DONE 2019. THIS IS HERE FOR A MASSIE HEARING. CITY ORDINANCE 5-1501.5 PERMIT REQUIRED AND 5-1 POINT 4.1 POINT 2 EXPIRED PERMIT AND THE PERMITS PERMIT 13-2204, THAT PERMIT WAS EXPIRED AT THE TIME OF THE ISSUING OF THE NOTICE AND THAT PERMIT HAS NOW BEEN RENEWED, BUT 18-1358 ARE STILL EXPIRED. AND PERMIT 20-2970 WHICH WAS FOR A FEW FACADE WORK. THAT PERMIT WAS REJECTED IN OCTOBER AND AS OF TODAY THERE'S NOT BEEN REVISIONS SUBMITTED.
PRIOR TO STAFF MAKING A RECOMMENDATION WE'D LIKE TO HEAR
FROM MR. JEAN DANTILUS. >> MR. JEAN DANTILUS?
COME FORWARD. RAISE YOUR RIGHT HAND AND STATE
YOUR NAME AND BE SWORN? >> JEAN DANTILUS.
WE NEED TO SWEAR HIM IN, MADAM CLERK.
>> SORRY ABOUT THAT. COULD YOU RAISE YOUR RIGHT HAND PLEASE AND STATE YOUR NAME FOR THE RECORD?
>> JEAN DANTILUS. >> YOU SWEAR AND AFFIRM THE TESTIMONY YOU'LL GIVE WILL BE THE TRUTH?
>> TO MY KNOWLEDGE EVERYTHING HAS BEEN TAKEN CARE OF.
I REMEMBER LAST TIME, FIRST IT WAS A KCOMPANY THAT PAY TO DO THAT, AND THEN AFTER I THOUGHT IT WAS CLOSING WHEN THEY WRITE ME TO TELL ME EVERYTHING THAT I HAD TO DO, I PAY THE FEES, RENEWED THE PERMITS, AND CALLED A SCHEDULE.
UNFORTUNATELY, AFTER THAT, I THOUGHT THE INSPECTOR WAS DONE WITH HIS INSPECTION AND EVERYTHING WAS COOL.
TO MY SURPRISE I JUST RECEIVED THAT LETTER THAT THIS CASE WAS STILL GOING ON. TO MY KNOWLEDGE, EVERYTHING WAS DONE. THE LAST TIME THIS COME, TO MY KNOWLEDGE I FOLLOW EVERYTHING THEY TELL ME TO DO.
PAY FOR PERMIT AND CALL FOR INSPECTION.
>> I'M LOOKING AT THE CORRECTIVE ACTION HERE AND MR. COSS SAID PERMITS 1304 IN PAR GOLF TWO AND 181358 HAVE EXPIRE AND NEED TO BE RENEWED, BUT IN PARAGRAPH ONE YOU SAY 3204 HAS BEEN RENEWED?
[00:55:04]
>> YES. 13-3304 WAS FOR THE RENOVATION OF THE STRUCTURE AND THAT PERMIT IS NO LONGER IN VIOLATION.
18-1358 FOR A FENCE, THAT PERMIT HAS EXPIRED AND NEEDS TO BE RENEWED. A NEW PERMIT, 20-290 WHICH IS FOR THE FACADE WORK ABOVE THE WINDOW ON THE FRONT OF THE STRUCTURE, THAT WAS REJECTED, FACADE.
FACADE. THE WINDOW WORK THAT WAS DONE ON
THE FRONT. >> YES, BUT THE GENTLEMEN WORKING ON IT TELL ME THAT IT WAS THE PLAN THAT WAS APPROVED.
I'VE TRY TO CONTACT THE ARCHITECT, I DON'T KNOW, SHE'S NOT AVAILABLE OR NOT AVAILABLE TO LET HER KNOW IF THE PLAN WAS APPROVED. I HAD TO INFORM HER WHATEVER THE CITY REQUIRED FOR HER PLAN TO MEET THE CITY REQUIREMENTS, AND I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO. THAT WAS IN LATE DECEMBER WHEN CECILE LET ME KNOW BECAUSE I WAS ASKING HIM WHAT ABOUT THIS? THAT'S WHEN HE TOLD ME THAT IT WAS SOMETHING ABOUT THE CITY WANTING TO KNOW ABOUT BEING ON TOP OF IT, THAT'S WHY THEY DIDN'T APPROVE NOT ONE, BUT AGAIN THE ARCHITECT IS THE ONE THAT WAS WORKING ON IT C. WHATEVER WAS REQUIRED TO MEET THE CITY REQUIREMENT. SHE'LL WANT TO DO THAT.
BUT FOR THE PERMIT TO THE FENCE, I DO THINK THAT WAS ALL DONE.
THE LAST TIME, I APPLY FOR PERMIT AND CALL FOR INSPECTION AND EVER SINCE I NEVER HEARD NOTHING AND I THOUGHT EVERYTHING WAS COMPLIANT. BUT FOR THE OTHER ONE, I HAD TO GET THE CONTACT WITH THE ARCHITECT TO COMPLETE THAT.
>> SIR, THIS CASE WAS INITIATED BACK IN DECEMBER OF 2018.
2018. AND YOU STILL HAVE PERMITS THAT HAVE EXPIRED, NEED TO BE RENEWED.
ONE HAS BEEN REJECTED. YOU'RE MOVING AT A SNAIL'S PACE HERE. YOU DON'T HAVE THE PROPER PER PERMITS.
SO I'M NOT GOING TO ENTERTAIN A MASSIE HEARING THIS MORNING BECAUSE THE PROPERTY IS NOT IN COMPLIANCE.
>> WELL, AS I SAID, THERE WAS TWO DIFFERENT PERMITS WITH THAT
I'M LOOKING AT IT AND YOU'VE BEEN HERE SEVERAL TIMES.
>> I UNDERSTAND, BUT THE THING IS THERE WERE TWO DIFFERENT ARCHITECTS WORKING ON IT AT THE SAME TIME SO ONE ARCHITECT DID NOT WANT TO TAKE OVER AND FINALLY, THAT PERMIT THAT DOES N NOT, THAT IS NOT YET DONE, THAT WAS THE ARCHITECT THAT REQUIRES THE CITY TO HAVE HER WORK
SEPARATE FROM THE OTHER ONE. >> SIR, I'M NOT HERE TO YOU KNOW DICTATE HOW THIS SHOULD GO, BUT I'M NOT GOING TO ENTERTAIN A MASSIE HEARING THIS MORNING UNTIL YOU COME INTO COMPLIANCE.
YOU NEED TO GET WITH YOUR ARCHITECTS AND STAY IN TOUCH WITH THE CITY TO FIND OUT WHAT YOU NEED, I CAN NOT GIVE YOU WHAT YOU ARE ASKING FOR BECAUSE YOU'RE NOT IN COMPLIANCE.
>> I UNDERSTAND, BUT I WAS NOT AWARE OF THAT UNTIL DECEMBER.
I THOUGHT THAT - >> SIR, SIR? I SUGGEST THAT YOU STAY IN TOUCH WITH WHOEVER IS HANDLING YOUR CASE HERE SO THAT YOU KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON, BUT RIGHT NOW I'M NOT GOING TO ENTERTAIN A HEARING.
>> YOU NEED TO GET WITH THE CITY TO FIND OUT WHAT YOUR ARCHITECTS OR WHOEVER NEED TO DO. THIS IS ALL I'M LOOKING AT.
IT'S BEEN TWO YEARS. >> I'LL DO THAT
>> THANK YOU. >> SPECIAL MAGISTRATE IT APPEARS THE FINES WERE STOPPED IN OCTOBER OF 2020.
>> OKAY, I REMEMBER MR. JEAN DANTILUS COMING IN, SO GET WITH YOUR PEOPLE AND GET THIS STRAIGHTENED OUT, OKAY? SO YOU
CAN BE DONE WITH THE MATTER. >> OKAY.

CASE 15-1910, 135 NORTH 15TH STREET.
J.J. THIS IS ALSO A CALL IN AND I'LL BE CALLING MR. JOHN BE BENMASHE.
>> HELLO. THIS IS ELIZABETH WITH THE CITY OF FT. PIERCE BUILDING DEPARTMENT.
YOU ARE IN OUR OWE ATTENDANCE OF THE SPECIAL MAGISTRATE HEARING.
>> OKAY. >> I WILL HAVE TO SWEAR YOU IN FOR TESTIMONY. COULD YOU RAISE YOUR RIGHT HAND AND STATE YOUR NAME FOR THE RECORD?
>> YOU SWEAR THE TESTIMONY YOU PROVIDE TODAY WILL BE THE TRUTH?
>> I DO. >> THE NEXT VOICE YOU'LL HEAR IS
THE SPECIAL MAGISTRATE. >> GOOD MORNING.
>> GOOD MORNING. >> MR. COSS, YOU ARE PRESENTING
THIS IS 135 NORTH 15TH STREET AND THE PROPERTY IS OWNED NOW BY J.J. THIS CASE WAS INITIATED OCTOBER 23RD OF 2015.
THE VIOLATIONS AT THE PROPERTY WERE CITY ORDINANCE 5-1, 5.105.1, PERMIT REQUIRED. THIS CAME BEFORE THE MAGISTRATE IN ORDER OF VIE HAITIAN WAS ENTERED AND RECORD.
ON SEPTEMBER 13TH, 016 NON-COMPLIANCE AFFIDAVIT WAS RECORDED AND THE FINES BEGAN. ON SEPTEMBER 28TH, 2017 AN ORDER POSTING LIEN WAS RECORDED. THIS PROPERTY WAS PURCHASED 2013 AND SINCE THAT TIME HE HAS OBTAINED PERMITS TO CORRECT ALL
[01:10:05]
VIOLATIONS AND THIS PROPERTY CAME INTO COMPLIANCE ON JANUARY 12TH OF 2021. THE FINES A CREWED TO AN AMOUNT OF $154840, WITH $40 BEING RECORDING FEES.STAFF CALCULATED THE ADMINISTRATIVE COSTS IN THIS CASE TO BE $3873 AND 16 CENTS. AND THERE ARE 7 CRITERIA IN CONSIDERING THE REDUCTION OF THIS LIEN.
ONE, THE GRAVITY OR SERIOUSNESS OF THE VIOLATION IS MODERATE.
TWO ANY AND ALL ACTIONS TO CORRECT THE ACTIONS IS NOT APPLICABLE. THE CURRENT OWNER WAS NOT THE VIOLATOR HAS BROUGHT THIS PROPERTY INTO COMPLIANCE.
ITEM 2B IF THE VIOLATIONS WERE NOT CORRECTED BY THE ORIGINAL VIOLATOR WHAT ACTION WAS TAKEN BY ANY OTHER OWNER TO BRING THE VIOLATION INTO COMPLIANCE? AS PREVIOUSLY STATED THE CURRENT OWNER OBTAINED THE NECESSARY PERMITS AND RECEIVED THE NECESSARY INSPECTIONS BRINGING THE PROPERTY INTO COMPLIANCE.
THREE, THE LENGTH OF TIME NECESSARY TO BRING THE PROPERTY INTO COMPLIANCE WAS FIVE YEARS AND ONE MONTH.
HOWEVER, AS NOTICED PREVIOUSLY HE PURCHASED THE PROPERTY IN 2018, SO THAT'S BEEN REDUCED. ITEM 4 THE NUMBER OF TIMES THE VIOLATOR WAS PREVIOUSLY FOUND BY EITHER THE CODE ENFORCEMENT BOARD OR SPECIAL MAGISTRATE OR JUDICIAL PROCESS OR OTHERWISE, ADMITTING GUILT IS NOT APPLICABLE.
NUMBER FIVE, THE NUMBER OF VIOLATION NOTICES THE VIOLATOR HAS RECEIVED IN THE PAST AND THE FINAL DISPOSITION OF EACH NOTICE IS NOT APPLICABLE. NMBER SIX, WHETHER THERE ARE EXTENUATING FACTORS PREVENTING COMPLIANCE SUCH AS UNAVOIDABLE HARDSHIP. THEY OBTAINED IT THROUGH PURCHASING AFTER A LONG PERMITTING PROCESS HE'S COMPLIED ALL VIOLATIONS. NUMBER 7, WHERE AND TO WHAT EXTENT THERE'S VIOLATIONS ON THE SUBJECT PROPERTY OR ANY PROPERTY WITH THE CITY OWNED BY THE RESPONDENT AND THERE ARE NONE.
HE'S REQUESTED THE LIEN REDUCTION AND IN HIS REQUEST HE'S OFFERED TO PAY $1600. AFTER CAREFULLY CONSIDERING THIS AMOUNT, THE ADMINISTRATIVE FEES, THE FACT THAT HE HAS OBTAINED FIVE PERMITS OF WHICH THERE WERE A STOP WORK ORDER AND PERMIT FEES THAT HAD TO BE PAID UNDER THOSE, HE WAS ALSO RESPONSIBLE FOR SEVERAL CODE ENFORCEMENT LIENS THAT HAD BEEN SATISFIED SO STAFF IS AGREEABLE TO ACCEPT HIS OFFER A.
$1600. AS A REMINDER, SPECIAL MAGISTRATE THIS IS A REDUCTION AND IT WILL NEED TO GO IN FRONT
OF THE CITY COMMISSION. >> YES.
DID YOU HEAR THE RECOMMENDATIONS MADE BY MR. COSS?
>> I DID, MA'AM. >> ANYTHING FURTHER? EXCUSE ME. BASED TOP STIPUTOLATION BETWEEN THE PARTIES, I WILL REDUCE THE LIEN TO $1600.
NOW, THIS MATTER IS NOT FINAL. YOU WILL HAVE TO GO BEFORE THE CITY COUNCIL, AND IT'S UP TO THEM TO MAKE THE FINAL DECISION HERE, BUT BASED ON YOUR STIPULATIONLY APPROVE THE $1600 AGREEMENT TO RESOLVE THE MATTER. DO WE KNOW WHEN THIS MATTER WILL PROBABLY GO BEFORE THE CITY COUNCIL?
>> PROBABLY FEBRUARY 16TH, WHICH IS A TUESDAY DUE TO MONDAY BEING
PRESIDENT'S DAY. >> AND HAVE YOU EXPLAINED HOW
THAT PROCEDURE WORKS? >> I HAVE NOT.
HAVE YOU, LIZ? >> I BELIEVE I HAD THAT CONVERSATION. I DON'T KNOW IF YOU REMEMBER US HAVING A CONVERSATION ABOUT HOW IT, WHATEVER YOU AGREED TO HERE WOULD HAVE TO GO BEFORE THE CITY COMMISSION, AS WELL?
>> YES. IS IT GOING TO BE REMOTE, AS WELL OR IN-PERSON BECAUSE OF COVID-19?
>> THOSE HEARINGS ARE IN-PERSON, HOWEVER YOUR ITEM IS PLACED ON THE CONSENT AGENDA, SO THE ITEMS ARE NOT TYPICALLY PULLED UNLESS A COMMISSIONER WANTS TO PULL IT FOR DISCUSSION IF YOU WANTED TO SPEAK AT THE HEARING OR ENTER SOMETHING FOR PUBLIC COMMENT, YOU WOULD EITHER NEED TO APPEAR PRIOR TO THE MEETING AND SIGN UP OR YOU CAN E-MAIL YOUR COMMENTS TO THE CITY CLERK PRIOR TO, I BELIEVE THE CUT OFF IS, THAT HEARING GOING TO START AT 4:30, SO THE CUT OFF SHOULD BE 4:00 P.M. FOR THE PUBLIC RECORD.
[01:15:05]
>> IN THE MEANTIME, IF I DON'T MAKE ANY PUBLIC COMMENTS, IT'S JUST A MATTER OF THEM HAVING IT GO TO THE BOARD ON FEBRUARY 16TH AND JUST WAITING FOR THEIR RESPONSE?
>> OKAY. THEN THERE BEING NOTHING FURTHER TO RESOME INVEST THIS CASE. YOU'RE EXCUSED.
>> ALRIGHT, THANK YOU VERY MUCH AND HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY.
>> OKAY. WE'LL GO BACK TO 5 D.
