AMENDED JUDGMENT AND ORDER OF INTERPLEADER DISBURSEMENT

On the joint motion for entry of final judgment and order of interpleader disbursement filed by defendants Steven D. Bruske, Amanda Groves, and Keye Large, and guardian ad litem Janice Wexler, on behalf of the minor children A.B. and G.B. (dkt. #41), and considering the final invoice by Attorney Wexler (dkt. #43), the court finds, adjudges and orders as follows:

This suit involves a dispute regarding the proceeds of a life insurance policy payable by State Farm Life and Accident Assurance Company, insuring the life of Patricia Joyce. On November 30, 2018, an Order (dkt. # 14) granting State Farm's motion to deposit funds and for dismissal was granted, allowing State Farm to deposit the disputed funds into the registry of the Court. On or about December 12, 2018, State Farm deposited the sum of $253,899.95 (the "Funds") into the registry of the Court, and was terminated as a party. Since State Farm's deposit, Janice Wexler has been paid $7,552.39 out of the Funds, and she has an additional, final invoice in the amount of $465.

The parties have resolved their dispute and submitted a joint motion for entry of final judgment and order of interpleader disbursement, evidencing the financial terms of the settlement. Since then, Attorney Wexler submitted her last invoice. Pursuant to the agreement of the parties, the last invoice, and the record in this matter:
