procedure for distribution of estate

[jagxj6]

The court appointed attorney has asked us as beneficiaries to sign in advance a document that states we have "received a distribution in the amount of...." He says he must have this first to release the distribution to us. But we have not "received" anything by check, wire or other means. How can we be expected to sign we have received a distribution when in fact we have received nothing.

It would be foolish to sign a blank paper, releasing your interests.
