Title A name given to the resource Department of Justice Emails Description An account of the resource The Department of Justice received more than 11,000 e-mails in response to the agency's public solicitation for comments upon its plans to distribute the September 11th Victim Compensation Fund of 2001 established by Congress to benefit the victims of September 11 and their families. These e-mails have been organized here by date. September 11 Email September 11 Email: Body The basic content, as unstructured text; sometimes containing a signature block at the end. Saturday, November 10, 2001 4:04 PM (no subject) I hope that the language in your regulations will clearly address the following problems/questions. My niece, was a flight attendant aboard . Her parents (legal heirs) are divorced and do not communicate. 1) 's mother was the sole beneficiary of her daughter's life insurance. Her father (my sister's ex-husband) who is an attorney/judge, has indicated that an offset in the amount of the life insurance will be deducted from the claim settlement value with Victim Compensation Fund. This we all understand BUT, he further states that the amount of the settlement will NOT be distributed equally to my niece's two parents. My ex-brother-in-law is looking to deduct from my sister's share of the settlement, the amount she received in life insurance. I believe that the beneficiary of life insurance is irrelevant and separate and apart from the a claim with the Victim Compensation Fund and certainly hope that when the regulations are available, the issues concerning distribution of funds are clearly addressed. 2) Information currently available indicates that the "personal representative" of a deceased victim will file a single claim to the Victim Compensation Fund. My adult niece, has 2 parents but they are divorced. Can parents jointly be their daughter's "personal representatives" (plural) filing one joint claim? I hope that every consideration will be given to these concerns for my family and for others in similarly awkward positions.
