Please read the following e- mails, I wasn't looking to "CYA" as stated by an Assistant County
Attorney. This document doesn't call for it to be recorded, we were asked to record this
document via e-mail. Recording had question regarding the signatures not being notarized and
a missing signature for one of the named parties.
I was asking for written confirmation as was sent when the County Attorney's office asked us
to record this document. I don't appreciate being spoken in this manner.

Martha,
I came downstairs to personally apologize for my earlier email. This was of my own volition and without Jeff's, Leo's or
Ian's knowledge.(As is this email.) It was clear from your email to them that I had upset you far beyond any intention to
do so. On occasion, emails fail to convey the tone in which they are sent and this is certainly one of those times. Your
email below arrived very shortly after your telephone conversation with my paralegal in which she was quite clear and
polite -as -ever in requesting that you please go forward with recording the Agreement in question.
My assumption was that the below email was to create a paper trail of your conversation. There was certainly nothing
incorrect in your email. I am experiencing what happens when you assume.
I cannot be more sincere to you when I apologize for upsetting you. It was not my intention. Please let me know how I
can make it up to you. My emails will certainly endeavor to be more friendly in the future. You have always been most
helpful to my office and I realize that you were trying to help in this case as well.
Apologies again,
