Court in which he informed the Court:
As requested in the Order of the Honorable Arthur
L. Nims, III, dated September 7, 1990, we are
responding with the current status of the above matter.
On August 1, 1989, the Philadelphia Orphans' Court en
banc ruled that John T. Lynch, Jr. was required to
refund to the Estate of Philip Meriano $195,525.99 plus
interest to August 1, 1989 of $100,606.03 and Edward J.
Reardon, Jr. was required to refund to the Estate of
Philip Meriano $78,983.10 plus interest of $40,638.79.
John T. Lynch has appealed the decision but we have
reached a settlement with Edward J. Reardon, Jr.
Accordingly, we are not as yet in a position to
finalize the Federal estate tax settlement. * * *
