Question for all

The trust places the funds reserved from the bankruptcy into low risk investments. I believe the income from these investments is recycled back into the fund. Once the Trust transfers funds to the survivors attorney those funds are placed into another account. That account would be drawing interest from the time it arrived until it was transferred to the survivors. Who gets the interest? Attorneys are killing us with fees. Has anyone seen a credit for this on their disbursement accounting?

Again I wrote to the lawyers that supposedly work for me. I try my best to hit all avenues and keep pressure on these lawyers and trust people to remember who they are supposed to be representing. Yes I do understand that the money grab but I'm not going to let up and I'm not going to give up.b

1% Decision Regression

Regarding FCR’s “Payment Percentage Dispute” litigation on the Delaware BSA, LLC docket (Case No. 20-10342)

  • Docket 457 (6/24/2026): Declaration in support of the FCR Motion for Judicial Resolution of the PaymentPercentage Dispute etc.

I missed when this went from Silverstein having autonomy to a total regression of her powers. Can anyone tell me why this is back in Delaware as well as any updates you know about... i.e. next hearing, court date and so forth?

Option C + Hippa form?

I’m confused. Chose Option C. They made me sign the hippa form. Now they are holding the lien, 30k.
They never put in writing that even if I put Option C, they will still take the lien money.
What was the propose?
UPDATE: Ever try calling Ask? They are a “small organization “ who only has 1 paralegal working at a time. But everyone’s 40% can’t afford another paralegal?

WHEN WILL THE TRUST ADMIT THEY KNEW IT WILL TAKE UP TO TWO YEARS TO SETTLE THOUSANDS OF HEALTHCARE LIENS ?

THIS IS WHY THEY ALLOWED YOUR ATTORNEY TO CHARGE A COMMISSION ON MONEY YOU WERE NOT PAID ! THEY DID NOT WANT THE ATTORNEYS TO HAVE TO WAIT TWO YEARS TO GET PAID A COMMISSION ON THE HOLDBACK MONEY. A MEDICARE EMPLOYEE TOLD ME IF THEY HAD ASKED ANYONE IN MEDICARE CUSTOMER SERVICE THEY WOULD HAVE BEEN TOLD IT COULD TAKE UP TO TWO YEARS OR MORE FOR 62,000 PEOPLE ! THEY WILL NEVER TELL US HOW OR WHO DECIDED TO TELL US 45 DAYS IF WE CHOSE OPTION A.

LDS vs BSA

So Ask LLP is lumping my LDS payout with my BSA payout🤦.
It was my understanding they are separate.
They already collected 40% on the LDS case, but since they are not separating the totals, it gives them an additional advantage of more money to claim.
Any one else in the church having this happen?

It appears at least 4 months of delays can be attributed to a handful of Predatory Law Firms

The Boy Scouts of America (BSA) halted and audited thousands of claims due to a handful of predatory law firms for close to 4 months

The issues stem from the massive influx of over 82,000 claims and center on specific institutional and legal factors:

High-Volume "Claim Mills" and Mass Solicitations

When the BSA filed for bankruptcy, a multi-million dollar advertising blitz by aggressive personal injury lawyers and "lead-generation" companies flooded television and social media. These firms utilized automated or highly rushed intake processes to sign up tens of thousands of clients with little to no vetting.

Identical and Manufactured Data

The Scouting Settlement Trust implemented a formal fraud audit program after noticing highly suspicious patterns across thousands of applications:

  • Boilerplate Narratives: Thousands of claims submitted by specific firms featured identical, copy-and-pasted descriptions of abuse, shifting only the names and dates.
  • Impossible Timelines: A vast number of claims listed the exact same scoutmasters, locations, or dates that did not logically align with historical records or the age of the claimant.
  • Dead and Ghost Claimants: Audits revealed some firms filed claims on behalf of individuals who were already deceased before the bankruptcy, or used identity data of people who had never been enrolled in Scouting.

By late 2025, the total value of claims billed to BSA insurers surged past $12 billion, exponentially higher than the original $2.46 billion bankruptcy plan. Insurers funding the trust balked at these numbers, demanding strict verification guardrails before releasing escrowed funds. They successfully argued that the astronomical totals were artificially inflated by duplicate, unverified, or entirely manufactured claims.

The distinction the Trust makes is between invalid claims and invalid people. The audit system was not built to invalidate legitimate survivors, but rather to filter out fraudulent entries pushed through by predatory legal entities.

The Scouting Settlement Trust has been mostly successful in filtering out these irregular files, processing has steadily normalized. Following a favorable SCOTUS the Trust has been able to fully determine over 85% of legitimate claims, ensuring that real survivors actually receive their payouts.

We need to realize the TRUST is no Boy Scout (LOL), they are accountable to US (real flesh and blood), but also some unscrupulous predatory law firms are to up to 6 months or more for needless delays as well as all those fraudulent claims directly reduce OUR payouts.

WE ALL NEED TO UNDERSTAND THERE ARE MULTIPLE LAW FIRMS HERE THAT ARE REPRESENTING AND SERVING THEIR CLIENTS WITH SKILL AND COMPASSION

Docket 591 posted7/1/26 on omniagentsolutions.com fcr vs the trust hearing transcript fcr vs the trust 4-29-26

This is the court transcript for the April 29 2026 hearing . The fcr attorney claims evidence obtained by them that disputes their claims of 11,000 future claims can not be considered because when it was obtained by the company they hired it can not be used because they were at that time hired as a consultant witness, but now they are hired as a testifying witness , so that means the judge can not consider any evidence obtained as a consultant because that position no longer exist they are now a testifying witness not a consultant witness so she can not consider that evidence in her decision. The fcr even tried to cite three cases as Fact so that the judge could not consider the evidence that their witness cited that contradicts their claims of over 11,000 victims to come forward. You will not believe this is real until you read it for yourself. They act like we sold someone some pipe or something and did not get paid for it. They just don’t care that we are victims not some vendor that didn’t get paid for something we sold someone. If it is up to him we will never get paid another dime. He wants to keep it all for paying him a salary for the next 15 years.

Stress that i dont need

So I am a claimant, in BSA, Purdue, Endo, Malinkrodt. And Rite-Aid. I dont look forward to the aggravation that is for sure in store for me. Is it possible that one led to the other? I strongly think they are. My attorney told me last tuesday that Endo has 1 more lien to go thru, and then Tuesday they said Purdue is ready To pay, so milestone is handling all of them.

I just feel foolish checking my email at this point.

Over 4 months since I received an email confirming that my attorney has found no leans (they did the lean check). Still silence. Just another rug pull.
