Fife police are called to Luce & Associates

Fife police intimidation outside Luce & Associates office after Mr. Luce advised they had the original and a copy of my late-mother's will.  Their official response now is my mom doesn't have a will. 

I then filed for a motion to produce a will in Pierce County Superior Court based on the legal advice of the county clerk, Lu Scott.  I was court ordered to listen to the advice of a clerk, not law library.

What brought all this about?  Ken Luce told me he'd mail me a copy of my mom's will and never did.  He now states he never executed her will.   

On May 16, 2016, attorney Zac Luce emailed me that he was in possession of my mom's original will in the morning ... 

 
Then Zac only has a copy of her will.  That afternoon, his dad Ken Luce says he will mail me a copy of her will.  Later that afternoon, Zac says he does not have a copy of her will.  

 

Ken Luce begins bullying daughter of late-client

E-mail response from Mr. Ken Luce regarding my motion to produce a will.

Heather,     I have received copies of the documents you filed in Pierce County 16-4-00861-8.  I believe you are requesting that it be determined that your mother passed away without having a will.  As I have indicated to you our office did not prepare a will for your mother nor do we knowof her ever having one. We prepared a Community Property Agreement that has been filed with the Clerk.    You have previously stated, in writing, that you have a copy of her will and we have asked we be provided a copy but you have not done so. I again make that request.     The proceedings that you have commenced are without merit and I request that you dismiss them and that you notify me by noon on May 19th that you will do so.  If they are not I will move for imposition of CR11 sanctions.     A Community Property agreement supercedes any will a person may have in place and as previously explained to you all property separate and community is now part of the surviving husband's estate. There is no need to have an adjudication of intestacy or determination of heirs. Kenyon E. LuceLuce & Associates, P.S.   Ken Luce, Attorney, Fife, Washington

Mr. Luce, I am just now in receipt of your e-mail.  Please extend me the courtesy to respond to you by Monday 23, 2016 5:00pm.  It is my understanding no one is in possession of my mom's will. The will I stated I have is actually my mother's mother's (my grandmother's) and was mistaken.  Both you and Zach told me in writing and verbally you had both my mom's most recent original and a copy of her will. You also said you would mail me a copy of my mom's will. I will address all other concerns in separate e-mail by the date stated above.  Best, Heather Mickelson  [Quoted text hidden]

Dear Mr. Luce, Thank you for your email, I have now reviewed it.  My current status with the court is pro se so I hope you will communicate fairly with me as my own counsel to resolve some issues.  I would agree to strike the hearing currently set if we needed more time to arrive at a mutually agreeable resolution.  However, there are some issues with this situation. Apparently noone has a will for my mother.  Therefore the finding of intestacy would be appropriate. Because international law is involved I am not convinced the agreement applies to all property even if it were properly filed and executed. I look forward to arriving at a resolution and avoiding any unnecessary litigation. Yours truly, Heather Mickelson -- Adding references to what is going on... not in any particular order - May 9th, 2016 - My brother Erik left a voicemail on my sister's phone demanding I take down the video of the Fife Police outside of Mr. Ken Luce's office by 8PM.  Around 8:45PM, he posted on his own Facebook page that he did not know my whereabouts, as if I was missing and needed help.  Very odd.  I wrote on my sister in law's Facebook page (Wendy Mickelson) I was in my home in Seattle at it was 10PM, my bedtime The next morning, I was certain to check-in to my own home on Facebook so my friends would know I was safe and highlighted the oddness of my brother's posting the night prior. Wendy, Erik, and Taylar (Wendy's daughter) have deleted me as a FB friend since.  Odd, as I have not contacted any of them, with the exception to politely respond to their FB messages and to address my brother's fake concern I had gone missing.  August 19, 2014 - Response from Zachary Luce on  my advisory that I will file my mom's community property agreement if he does not.  Mr. Luce shows hesitation in filing, noting he needed to talk to my dad first and there was a filing fee. April 25, 2016 - Confirmation from Zachary Luce the community property agreement has been filed, advising (although it has been over 4 years since she signed it) it was legally valid, even though they were not recorded.

Happy Mother's Day Casa Molly! You'll come a Waltzing Matilda with me!

Happy Mother's Day at Casa Molly, Santa Carmela, Cabo San Lucas!  In honor of Leeanna Mickelson whom left this beautiful home to her four children, give a shout of gratitude and appreciation to our mother we loved so dearly.

What did we do to celebrate her life?  We sang a couple Australian songs, such as Tie Me Kangaroo Down Sport and made margaritas singing to Jimmy Buffet.  We jumped in the pool and soaked up the sun honoring the life of an incredible person.

Here's to you Mom! Cheers!  Love, your daughter Heather Jean

Ps.  Good News Mom!  Pierce County Superior Court Commissioner Clint Johnson ruled to PROTECT Casa Molly from dad trying to sell it as his own.  Check out the Restraining Order from June 8, 2016 and is still in effect today. xoxo :) 

Casa Molly is not for sale!
