I DIDN’T ORDER 

THAT, DID I ?

This week’s adventure is something that we 
can all relate to and going out with friends and 
family — the dreaded bill!

 Dining out is certainly one of the delights of 
life. Disagreeing over how to split a check can be 
frustrating and downright awkward. 

 Here’s what happened to me recently(really 
did): We were all done with the meal when 
a tablemate mentioned he was picking up the tab of 
someone else’s portion of the bill because they treated 
last time. 

 OK, that’s fine but what happened next was, 
“Thanks, I am glad you remembered. Let me order 
after-dinner drinks on us”. Wait — “On us”? Sure 
enough, I was stuck with a portion of the additional 
bottle of wine. Did I mention it was $130? What to do? 

 Here are a few suggestions that I have learned might 
lessen the burden:

 1. Be up front: “I love that restaurant, but this is my 
budget.” 

 2. While waiters may cringe, tell the server from the 
beginning that you want a separate bill.

 3. Keep track of what you order.

 4. Traditionally the person who extended the 
invitation pays the bill. We all know that is long 
gone, although my feeling is that the person who 
extended the invitation can and should be in charge 
of the accounting. We know that some of us are more 
generous than others. If you are the one ordering, you 
might offer to pay for the entire tip once the bill is 
evenly split.

 All in all, it usually evens out in the end. If it’s a few 
dollars here and there don’t worry about it. If the high 
roller keeps ordering the Patrón shots, tell him ‘thanks 
for the shots. I’ll have a bottle waiting for you at my 
house for the next party.’ 

 If you aren’t invited to the next dinner party, it might 
be for the best!!!

NOTICE OF AMENDED PETITION TO ADMINISTER ESTATE OF 

GUNTER ANTON SCHREINER

Case No. BP167463

 To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may otherwise be interested in the will or 
estate, or both, of GUNTER ANTON SCHREINER

 AN AMENDED PETITION FOR PROBATE has been filed by Leon Kirakosian in the Superior Court of California, 
County of LOS ANGELES.

 THE AMENDED PETITION FOR PROBATE requests that Leon Kirakosian be appointed as personal representative 
to administer the estate of the decedent.

 THE AMENDED PETITION requests the decedent’s will and codicils, if any, be admitted to probate. The will and any 
codicils are available for examination in the file kept by the court.

 THE AMENDED PETITION requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates 
Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. 
Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to 
interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.) The independent administration 
authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the 
court should not grant the authority.

 A HEARING on the amended petition will be held on May 11, 2016 at 8:30 AM in Dept. No. 67 located at 111 N. Hill 
St., Los Angeles, CA 90012.

 IF YOU OBJECT to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written 
objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney.

 IF YOU ARE A CREDITOR or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail 
a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of 
first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, 
or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California 
Probate Code.

 Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney 
knowledgeable in California law.

 YOU MAY EXAMINE the file kept by the court. If you are a person interested in the estate, you may file with the 
court a Request for Special Notice (form DE-154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any 
petition or account as provided in Probate Code section 1250. A Request for Special Notice form is available from the 
court clerk.
