5. Additionally, on or about June 16, 2015, the Guardian filed a Report of Distribution and
*** FILED: BROWARD COUNTY, FL HOWARD FORMAN, CLERK 8/25/2015 5:08:13 PM.****
App0114
Receipt of Reginald D. Hicks, Personal Representative of Estate of Carrie Mae Hicks. The
Guardian inaccurately listed himself as the Personal Representative of the Estate of Carrie Mae
Hicks and acknowledgedreceipt of the guardianship assets. Exhibits "E" and "F"
6. On or about July 21, 2015, a hearing was held on Guardian's Petition for Discharge as
Guardian. At the hearing, Guardian acknowledged that some guardianship assets were not
deposited into the restricted guardianship account. Instead, those assets were distributed directly
to Guardian upon the death of the Ward.
7. All funds personally received by the Guardian are estate assets and should have been
deposited into the Estate of Carrie Mae Hick's restricted estate account.
8. The Guardian's continuous non-compliance and his acknowledgement that certain assets
were distributed to him personally demonstrates that the guardianship funds may have been
mismanaged and Petitioner believes that it is in the best interest of the estate that a Level 3 Audit
be conducted to ensure an accurate accounting of all guardianship funds.
9. Pursuant to F.S. § 744.368(5), "If the clerk has reason to believe further review is
appropriate, the clerk may request and review records and documents that reasonably impact
guardianship assets, including, but not limited to, the beginning inventory balance and any fees
charged to the guardianship."
10. Petitioner will be unable to efficiently and accurately administer the Estate of Carrie Mae
Hicks if the accounting discrepancies are not resolved.
I 1. Additionally, during the hearing on Guardian's Petition for Discharge, the Court
requested that all parties be allowed to view the guardianship inventory and accountings.
However. when Petitioner and her attorney attempted to schedule a time to view said docwnents,
they were informed by the Accounting Department that the inventory and accountings could not
be viewed without the Guardian's attorney being present.
12. Review of the inventory and accountings may take multiple trips to the courthouse and it
would be a huge burden on each party to coordinate a time to review the docwnents
simultaneously.
WHEREFORE, the Petitioner Sharon Hicks, respectfully requests this Court to enter an
Order that:
1. Grants her Petition for a Level 3 Guardianship Audit;
2. Allow the Personal Representative Sharon Hicks and her attorney to review all
App0115
documents related to the inventory and all accountingsfiled in this case; and
3. Grants such other and further relief as is just and equitable.

2. On or about January31, 2008, Reginald Hicks (''Guardian") was appointed guardian of

S. On or about June 16, 2015, the Guardian filed a Report of Distribution and Receipt of
Reginald D. Hicks, Personal Representative of Estate of Carrie Mae Hicks. The Guardian

App0134
•
6. On or about July 21, 2015, a hearing was held on Guardian's Petition for Discharge as
Guardian. At the hearing, Guardian acknowledged that some guardianship assets were not
deposited into the restricted guardianship account. Instead, those assets were distributeddirectly
to Guardianupon the death of the Ward.
7. All funds personally received by the Guardian are estate assets and should have been
deposited into the Estate of Carrie Mae Hick's restrictedestate account.
8. The Guardian's continuous non-complianceand his acknowledgementthat certain assets
were distributed to him personally demonstrate a need for a Level 3 Audit to ensure an accurate
accountingof all guardianship funds.

appropriate, the clerk may request and review records and documents that reasonably impact

The :'Order Granting Level 3 Guardianship Audit and Review of Inventory and

the petitioner, daughter of Carrie Mae Hicks, would be better served by the hiring
of a forensic accountant. The Guardianship Audit division has previously reviewed
documents in the normal course of our audit processes and due to their lack of
substantiality; the reports were placed into non-compliance. The access to available

COMES NOW, the Guardian, REGINALD D. HICKS, by and through her undersigned

April 13, 2015 and rehearing this matter and stales as follows:
1. On or about January 3 t. 2008, Reginald 0. Hicks was appointed guardian of Carrie Mae

specific allegations of wrongdoing being detailed. The purpose of a surcharge against a guardian is
to make whole the ward' estate. Lawyers Surety Comoration v. Saltz, 658 So. 2d 1153 (2 DCA
1995).
5. Florida Statute 744.446 (3) indicates a Guardian may be held personally liable for expenses
"Any activity prohibited by this section is voidable during the tenn of the guardianship
or by the
personal representative of the ward's estate, and the guardian is subject to removal and to
imposition of personal liability through a proceeding for surcharge, in addition to any other
remedies otherwise available."
6. Any effort to surcharge a Guardian is by definition an adversarial proceeding which
requires Formal Notice be served on the Guardian. Fla. Prob R. 5025 (a) states,
" The following are adversary proceedings unless otherwise ordered by the court
proceedings to remove a personal representative, surcharge a personal representative, remove a
guardian, surcharge a guardian, probate a lost or destroyed wiUor later-discovered will, detennine

the purposes of distribution, determine pretermitted status, determine pretennitted share,
determine amount of elective share and contribution, and for revocation of probate of a will.''
7. Personal Representative has not followed the requirements outlined in Fla. Prob. R. 5025
requested Forensic Accountant expenses. The failure to provide formal notice, in accordance with
the Probate Rules of Procedure regarding any surcharge should result in a reversal of any
surcharge. Snell v. Guardianship of Snell, 915 So. 2d 709 (Fl. 2005), Reed v. Long, 1I 1 So. 3d 237

COMES NOW, the Guardian, REGINALD D. HICKS, by and through her undersigned
counsel, and respectfully requests this Court enter an Order clarifying and the Coun·s order of
l. Court entered an Order on January 5, 2016 in this matter. The only direct action required of
the Guardian, Reginald D. Hicks within the four comers of the document is to pay for all services
rendered by the Forensic Accowitant (attached hereto and marked as Exhibit "A").
2. Guardian filed on January 19, 2016, a Motion for Re-hearing of the January 5, 2016
hearing. A letter and a copy of the Motion was sent to the Court on January 20, 2016 (attached
hereto and marked as Exhibit "B") requesting a hearing. This Motion is still pending.
3. A ''Motion fo r Contempt and Sanction" was filed on May 5, 2016 by Sharon Hicks,
Personal Representative of the late Ward's estate alleging the Guardian had failed to comply with
the Court·s Order of January 5, 2016 by failing to provide documents requested by the Forensic
Accountant, Elgin Polo as required by the Court previous Order of January 5, 2016.

App0302
4. A hearing was held on the Motion for Contempt before the Court on June 22. 2016. The
court found the Guardian, Reginald D. Hicks in Contempt of Court for failing to comply with the
January 5, 2016 Order. This Order was entered based on the Court's misapprehension that this
5. 'lbe Order was signed by the Court on June 29, 2016 and filed by the Broward County
Clerk of Court on July 5, 2016. Guardian, Reginald Hicks and his undersigned counsel were not
served with a copy of the Order. In fact, the Order docs not indicate a copy was furnished to thl!
6. Sharon Hicks, through her counsel filed a "Second Motion.for Contempt, M()/ion to Show
Cause and Motion for Sanctions " on August 22, 20 t 6. This pleading included a copy of the
Court's Order of June 29, 2016 which was the first time the Guardian and his counsel saw this
order. Guardian's counsel, Darren K. Edwards had no opportunity to review this Order prior to its
entry by the Court.
7. A hearing was held on November 2, 2016 on this Second Motion for Contempt. Guardian.
Reginald D. Hicks and his counsel, Darren Edwards were held in Contempt of Court for failing to
comply with the June 29, 2016 Order and required to pay $5,700.00 in sanctions within 60 days of
the entry of the Order. Once again, this Order \.Vasbased on the Guardian"s failure to provide

App0303
9. The two orders referenced in Sharon Hicks' Motion/or Contempl and Sanctions and
"Second Motion for Contempt, Motion to Show Cause and Motion for Sanctions'', do not
specifically require the Guardian's counsel. Darren K. Edwards to-provide documents concerning
the Guardianship accountings and inventories to the court-appointed accountant, Elgin Polo. The
orders do not even address whether he has or had the direct responsibility or capability to comply
with the Court's orders of January 5, 2016 and June 29, 2016.
10. "A judge cannot base contempt upon noncompliance with something an order does not
say." Keitel v. Keitel. 716 So.2d 842, 845 (Fla. 4th DCA I 998).
11. •If an order is not clear and unambiguous regarding what a party may or may not do or
what it must or must not do, then it cannot support the conclusion that the party willfully or
deliberately violated that order." Pasis Builders. LLC v. McHugh, 138 So. 3d 1218 (Fla. 4th DCA
2014), DcMello v. Buckman, 914 So. 3d 1090 (Fla. 4th DCA 2014).
12. F.R.C.P. 1.530 (a) provides for a party to move for a rehearing in a nonjury trial action. On
a motion for rehearing of matters heard without a jury, the court may open the judgment if one has
been entered, take additional testimony, l:ltldenter a new judgment Bolton v. Bolton, 787 So. 2J
13. The Court's Order of Contempt dated November 2, 2016 established a coercive fine or
purge of $5,700.00, payable within sixty (60) days. This amount was calculated by the Court based
on a formula which assessed a fine per day from June .'.!9,2016 through November 2, 2016. Mr.
Hicks presented to the Court a letter sent to Elgin Polo and Ticcsha N. Taylor. Esquire dated
August 22, 2016. Mr. Hicks indicated the documents requested by Mr. Polo would be made
App0304
Mr. Polo and Ms. Taylor stated in unswom tei,1imonythat they never received the letter. Guardian
and his counsel have proof of the letter being sent and received by Mr. Polo (attached hereto and
marked as Exhibit "D" is an onlioe fax receipt date August 22, 2016).The November 2, 2016
hearing was a non-evidentiary Motion Calendar hearing. Mr. Hicks was deprived of due process in
not being able to present evidence which addressed an significant factor in him being held in
Contempt of Court and being assessed an exorbitant fine. At a minimum, any fine access per day
would have likely been significantly reduced if this evidence was presented.

Probate Estate concerning the fmancial affairsof the decedent's estate. (Documentsattached
hereto w/ abstract from the E-Filing Portal marked as "Exhibit "B")). Among those documents

8. Personal Representative. Sharon L. Hicks filed_a Verified Petition fol' Fonnal
Administrationon Febniary 2S, 2015 indicatingthe decedent in this matter died intestate. The
Personal Representative, Sharon L. Hicks petitioned the Court to be appointed Personal
Representativeof the decedent's estate. Pursuantto Florida Probate Rule 5.20l(b),
"Before letters shall be is,ucd to anypmon who is not entitledto preference,formal notice must
be served on all known persons qualified to act as personal representativeand entitled to
preferenceequal to or greater than the applicant, unless those entitled to preference waive it in
writing."

IO. TheFormal Notice was not served on the Petitioneron May8, 2015 as asserted by
the Personal Representative in the pleadings which resulted in the Court Appointing her as
Personal Representative in this matter. Petitioner,Reginald Hicks never signedthe green receipt
(attachedhereto along with Formal Notice and marlcedExhibit "C") or authorizedanyone at his
former employerto act as his agent.
11. Florida Probate Rule S.040{3(A)(v) states:
(3) formal notice shall be served:
(v) on any other individualto the!individual's usual place of abode or to the place
where the individual regularly conducts business"
12. Personal Representative and her undersigned counsel, TIESHA TAYLORt under
Penalty of Perjury indicated they exercised reasonable diligence in determining whether the
dooodont died without G will. Petitioner, REGINALD HICKS wa~ never ('Ont111~tl'Ji hy tnP-Pruoqnn11

contacted by tl1e Personal Representative or her counsel to determine the existence of a will.
Personal Representativeand her undersignedcounsel's failure to exercisedue diligence,whether
thmugh fraud or a blatant attempt to mislead the court; has created the needless expenditure of
and the Petitioner's own financialresourcesto file this Petition for Removalof

the Personal Representative.
14. Florida. law requires the Court to give broad deference to the testatorjudgment in
naming a Personal Representative to administer his or bet estate. fQntrello
v. Estate of Kepler, 528
So. 2d 441 (Fla. 2d DCA 1988).
15. Personal Representative. SHARON li1CKS should be removed and the letters of
Administrationentered on July 25. 2015 should be revoked as a matte,:of law. She is not the
named PersonalRepresentativein the decedent's will. FloridaStatute §733.504(12) states.
"A personal representativemay be removedllJldthe letters n:voked for aay of the follo..ving
ca11ses,
a11dthe removalshall be in additionto any penaltiesprescribedby law:The penon111

App0320
Once the d~edent's will is_admitted to probate, the Personal RepresentatJve,SHARONHICKS
will no longer have a preference over the decedent's named Personal Representative.Florida
Statute §733.301states:
"After letters have been granted in either a testate or an intestateestate, if any wilt is subsequently
admitted to probate,the letters shall be revoked and new letters granted."
16. Florida Statutes§ 733.3101 and Florida ProbllteRule 5,310 impose an obligation
upon the personal representative to disclose any circumstances rendering the personal
to ignore the will at the time of filing the Petition for FormalAdministration(Intestate).
17. Petitioner has incurred legal fees and costs as a result of havingto file this action.
Personal Reprosentativeand her undersigned counsel knew or should have known this was a
testate matter, but decided to move forwardwith a fraudulent petition which resulted in her being
appointed Personal Representative against the decedent's wishes. Florida Statute § 733.l 06 (1)
permits costs to be awarded to the prevailing party in removal actions and the Persoual
Representativecan be held personally liable for said attomeys' fees and costs.

-------------------'
COMES NOW, REGINALD HICKS, by and through undersigned counsel and files his
Response in Opposition to Sharon Hicks ("Petitioner") Second Petition for Enforcement of Civil
Contempt (hereinafter the "Second Petition for Enforcement") and Motion for Sanctions,
2. The Second Petition for Enforcement is self-serving and void of many facts, failing
to disclose pertinent details that occurred prior to the filing of the Second Petition for Enforcement.
3. Further, the Second Petition for Enforcement in large part addresses Mr. Darren
Edwards' (Mr. Hicks' former counsel) actions, not those of Mr. Hicks. In fact, only four (4)
paragraphs of twenty-four (24) paragraphs address Mr. Hicks, and those grossly misrepresent the
facts.
4. Elgin Polo was appointed as the forensic accountant in this cause on or about
January 5, 2016.
5. Several hearings have been held before this Court with regard to the delinquent
6. Mr. Hicks, through counsel, has provided all of the financial statements and
documents in his possession pursuant to the Court's instructions to the Forensic Account, Elgin
Polo, and has been working with the Forensic Accountant, through counsel, to address all of the
accounting issues. Indeed, Petitioner is well aware that Mr. Hicks provided all of the documents
and financial records in his possession to the Forensic Accountant as evidenced by undersigned
counsel's email to Tieesha Taylor ("Ms . Taylor"), counsel for Petitioner, on March 1, 2017. See
Exhibit "A".
7. Furthermore, Petitioner is aware that the additional and missing Tropical Financial
Credit Union ("Tropical") bank statements that the Forensic Accountant requested were not in Mr.
Hicks' possession and that Tropical refused to provide them at his request due to the Ward having
been deceased as evidenced by the email communications dated March 1, 2017, March 2, 2017
and March 10, 2017 between undersigned counsel, the Forensic Accountant, and Ms. Taylor
wherein an Order djrecting Tropical to furnish the account infonnation was discussed . (The emails
dated March 1, 2017 and March 2, 2017 are attached hereto and marked Composite Exhibit ''B"
and the email dated March 10, 2017 is attached hereto and marked Exhibit "C").
8. On March 22, 2017, this Honorable Court entered the Order Directing Tropical
Financial Credit Union to Furnish Account Information. (A copy of the March 22, 2017 Order is
9. It should also be noted that Mr. Hicks and undersigned counsel did not receive the
March 22, 2017 Order until April 10, 2017 and it was promptly provided to Tropical. (See email

counsel and undersigned counsel after the January 11, 2017 email Petitioner points to her Second
Petition for Enforcement as her "professional courtesy ... attempt to settle this matter without
further Court involvement," including the payment made by Mr. Hicks in the amount of $2,850.00
on February 8, 2017 for sanctions on Petitioner's prior Petition for Enforcement of Civil Contempt
11. In fact, a mere four (4) business days prior Petitioner filing her Second Petition for
Enforcement, Petitioner's counsel and undersigned counsel communicated via email regarding the
status of the records from Tropical. (See email dated April 26, 2017 attached hereto and marked
Exhibit "F").
12. It should also be noted that immediately after filing the Second Petition for
Enforcement (filed at 3:02:51 PM per the E-Filing header on it on May 2, 2017), Mr. Taylor's
office sent an email to undersigned counsel via email at 3:08 PM which forwarded an April 26,
2017 email from Catherine OToole, who works with Mr. Elgin as the Forensic Accountants
appointed in this case, to Tieesha Taylor, Petitioner's counsel, requesting additional records in
addition to the Tropical statements previously requested (i.e., Bank of America Statements,
Washington Mutual Statements, Bank United Statements, and copies of the Annual Accountings
for the periods 6/15/14 - 1/31/15 and 2/1/15 - 1/31/16). (See the May 2, 2017 email attached
hereto, made a part hereof and marked Exhibit "G"). Undersigned counsel was not copied on the
April 26, 2017 email from the Forensic Accountants to Petitioner's counsel and Petitioner did not
forward that email to undersigned counsel prior to May 2, 2017 at 3:08 PM, just minutes after

13. Petitioner states that Mr. Hicks "has continued to violate the court order by failing
to provide the forensic accountant Elgin Polo with all requested guardianship records . Petitioner's
allegation is blatantly false as demonstrated herein and as will be further argued ore tenus.
14. As demonstrated above, Mr. Hicks has been cooperative, has turned over all of the

15. It is respectfuliy submitted that Petitioner's attempt to lump Mr. Hicks in with Mr.
Edwards' failure to comply with this Court's directions is improper, fails to disclose the facts as it
relates to Mr. Hicks, grossly misrepresents the facts, and such conduct is inherently egregious and
strikes at the integrity of the judicial system, which depends on truthful disclosure of facts.
16. It is Petitioner's actions that have required Mr. Hicks to file this response and will
require his appearance at the hearing on June 15, 2017 and the Court should award Reginald Hicks
the attorney's fees and costs incurred by him related to this matter as a sanction for Petitioner's
egregious misconduct.
WHEREFORE, for the reasons set forth above, Petitioner, REGINALD HICKS,
respectfully requests that an order be entered denying Petitioner's Second Petition for Enforcement
of Civil Contempt as it related to Mr. Hicks, impose sanctions against Petitioner, Sharon Hicks ,
including, but not limited to, attorney's fees, costs, and for such other and further relief as this

Undersigned counsel intended to file and set for hearing the Motion to Show Cause upon her return. However, in

Dear Mr . Hicks:
My office is in receipt of a check in the amount of $2,500 for "loan to Est Carrie M. Hicks ."
Unfortunately , I am unable to accept said check on behalf of the Estate of Carrie Mae Hicks. Therefore, I
am returning the check to you.
However, you are aware that the Court ordered you to pay $2,500 in sanctions for your failure
to comply with multiple court orders. If your intention was to pay the $2,500 in sanctions, please provide
another check for the "sanctions" as opposed to "loan to Est Carrie M. Hicks."
Furthermore, pursuant to 744.511, Florida Statues, you were required to file a true, complete,
and final report of the guardianship within 20 days aft.er being removed as guardian, and serve the
successor guardian with the final report You have also failed to do so.
If you do not pay the $2,500 and if you do not file the final report by Monday, March 5, 2018, a
motion to show cause will be immediately filed and my office will seek fees and costs .

1 WHEREUPON:
2 THE COURT: That's it. Done. We're done, okay?
3 So with respect to -- I've already held him in contempt
4 of Court for failing to comply with the order. I gave
5 another 10 days that was not done.
6 MR. EDWARDS: What about out a motion for
7 rehearing, Your Honor?
8 THE COURT: There was no motion for rehearing that
9 I received.
10 MR. EDWARDS: We filed it.
11 THE COURT: That ' s fine. You know something Mr.
12 Edwards, you can just tell me all the time you want that
13 you filed something. You could file with the clerk's
14 office, but I don't get a copy. Just because you filed
15 with the clerk's office they don't send everything to
16 me, okay?
17 MR. EDWARDS: Your Honor , I sent -- I sent a copy
18 to the Court with a cover letter as well.
19 THE COURT: Oh really? Oh really?
20 MR. EDWARDS: I did, I did. I absolutely did.
21 THE COURT: Okay.
22 MR. EDWARDS: So, I am not prepared to deal with
23 that today, but can I show you --
24 THE COURT: Okay. I'm done sir. I hold you in
25 contempt of Court for -- I'm going to hold Mr. Edwards
App0555
1 and your client in contempt of Court. You have failed
2 to comply. You have made a mockery of this, total
3 mockery of this. This thing has gone on from February
4 to today -- February to November 2nd. Very simple, what
5 had to be done. He went in right away. He went in
6 immediately in February when I ordered this, he went in
7 within a week or two and went through the materials that
8 were in the clerk's office with respect to the audit of
9 this guardianship. And from February immediately after
10 that, you sent a letter dated February 28 -- February 20
11 February 23rd as to what needed to be done.
12 And here we are in November and it hasn't been
13 done. And you can raise all the smokescreens, all the
14 excuses, "I didn't know about the order." I verbalized
15 when you were sitting right here what had to be done. I
16 didn't specify the documents because I'm not an
17 accountant. He is the accountant, he knows what he has
18 to do, okay?
19 So, based on that I will order -- we find him in
20 contempt of Court, and what I am going to do in this
21 particular case -- And you know something, you know,
22 part of the problem here is with respect to your client,
23 but as far as I am concerned you are the one who has
24 been the roadblock in this particular case. You've been
25 the roadblock in this particular case. You have -- you
App0556
1 have done everything to prevent this case from moving
2 on. You -- according to your own client's letter here,
3 your own client's letter here that he wrote to -- that
4 he wrote -- I gave that to you, let me have that back.
5 The letter that he wrote to Mr. Polo, he said he never
6 even received from you the -- it was my understanding
7 you were going to forward me a copy of the February
8 23rd, '16 letter you addressed to Mr. Edwards. You
9 never even sent it to him, or is your client lying to
10 you?
11 MR. EDWARDS: I -- I don't know automatically say
12 because someone gets facts wrong that they are a liar.
13 I would say that he is mistaken.
14 THE COURT: He is mistaken?
15 MR. EDWARDS: He is not a liar .
16 THE COURT: He is mistaken?
17 MR. EDWARDS: He is mistaken in this particular
18 instance.
19 THE COURT: Oh, so -- so, you did receive this
20 letter, and this was not accurate?
21 MR. HICKS: The letter says what it says Judge, but
22 I 'm just -- look, with all due respect Judge, I'm just
23 trying to get what you want.
24 MR. EDWARDS: And Your Honor
25 MR. HICKS: I am here now --
App0557
1 THE COURT: Okay, all right. So, what I'm going
2 to do --
3 MR. EDWARDS: I'm not a roadblock -- I'm not a
12 case.
13 MR. EDWARDS: Your Honor, you appointed a court
14 monitor to review this to determine that there was
15 nothing improper though.
16 THE COURT: So, what I'm going to do is I'll hold
17 you in contempt of Court and I'm going to order from --
App0558
1 THE COURT: Okay. So, that will make it June
2 29th -- 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 , 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, so that's on a
3 weekend. So from July 11th -- from July 11th to
4 November 2nd the sanction for failure to comply with
5 this Court order is going to be the opposed in the
6 amount of $50 a day from July 11th to November 2nd. So,
7 the termination of that amount is going to be -- 1, 2,

Although the Guardianship Accountingperiodwas Februaiy through January, there are significant differences to note
betweenthe inQOmereportedto the IRS and the incomedepositedinto Carrie Mae Hick's accounts.
We compared the income reportedin the Annual GuardianshipAccountingto the incomereportedto the IRS. There were
items that may have been omitted from the GuardianshipAccounting,as well as items that were not reportedto the IRS.
We made adjustmentsto the income and detennined that the followingamounts are the most accuraterepresentationsof
