No need for the snark. The part that was puzzling me is clarified by the courts evidently not being involved yet.

I'm not being snarky. Legal representatives never have any power whatsoever, whether courts are involved or not, to make you do anything. Only a court has the power to do that.

Answering with 2 belittling questions is clearly inflamatory.

This response after being called out for being snarky would have been a fine original response.
