Re: Waiting Perion and Benefits
You do not need to wait to file your petition. In fact, you should file right away to obtain the protection of the automatice restraining orders. Based upon what you have told me you should sit down with an attorney to discuss the remaining issues. Much more information is needed to give a meaningful answer. Good Luck, Pat McCrary
