Another issue has arisen concerrling a letter which the Court received from a Ms. Quail who is
Rikki's kindergarten teacher in Tecumseh North Elementary Ms. Quail was the author ofa letter
which r beiieve is in the court file which indicates that Rikki had not eaten lunch prior to coming
to schooL Ms. Quail verified that she was indeed the author of this letter and that she had written. \ . . . f " / it at Ms. Dombrowski's .$.Qlicita.tion. Ms. QuaIl also informed me that there was another piece toQ.~\ ~ this issue which was not raised in the letter and that there was a f'Jllow up question to Rikki by

Jrorced to lose her job. She complained at length about prevIous domestic violence between
