Chapter 57 A little problem

“There’s kinda been a little problem with the papers, Mister Adler.” The lawyer who happened to be the one to bring in the divorce papers to be signed before was back at the cafe, with ‘kinda’ bad news on his way.

“Why? I thought these things will be done and over by the judge’s own means soon.”

“That particular job that we have ‘connection’ with has been hospitalized for months now. The papers were already submitted in the family court but are stagnant and with no reviews, the judge can’t even sign it because he’s paralyzed and hanging on a ventilator.”
