In March 1993, while Mr. Meyer was obtaining valuation
figures for use in the Probate Inventory, Mr. Kadish prepared a
disclaimer that he and Mr. Wyse had intended decedent to sign
(Exhibit 8-H). Page 1 of Exhibit 8-H listed all the classes of
Mrs. Chamberlain's property; page 2 of Exhibit 8-H stated a
specific amount, $525,000, as being disclaimed. Exhibit 8-H did
not list any assets because Messrs. Meyer and Kadish planned to
wait until the values of all of Mrs. Chamberlain's probate assets
had been determined before deciding which assets to include in
the disclaimer. To that effect, in a memo to the June
Chamberlain Probate File, Mr. Meyer wrote:
Attached is the file. You can see a very nice
memorandum from John about disclaimers. I will need
to make up a total list of joint bonds as well, but we
won't pick those up right now, but we're going to have
to make a quick decision. Let's get what were [sic]
talking about, we'll value them and then see how many
more we want to add to the pile.
