The two exceptions are Paul’s objection to ¶ 16 of Eugene’s initial declaration and Eugene’s objection to ¶ 19 of Paul’s initial declaration (the paragraphs establishing hostility and lack of cooperation). The court overrules the objections to those paragraphs, which the court considers only for the purpose of demonstrating the state of mind of the declarants.

The court will give notice.
