>> FROM OUR IN YOUR CORNER TEAM TONIGHT, POSSIBLE RESOLUTION FOR A GRIEVING FAMILY AFTER A BRIDE TO BE DIES JUST MONTHS BEFORE HER WEDDING TO THE FAMILY SAYS THEY'VE BEEN FIGHTING FOR A REFUND FROM THE VENUE FOR MONTHS NOW. ADAM SNYDER HAS THE UPDATE. >> IT'S BEEN A WHIRLWIND YEAR FOR THOSE WHO KNEW AND LOVED MICAELA GRUNDY. THE 28 YEAR-OLD WAS SET TO BE WED THIS OCTOBER. SHE WANTED TO BE COMFORTABLE. SHE WANTED IT TO BE EVERYBODY THAT WAS CELEBRATING THEM LEADING TO A PHONE CALL BY HUSBAND TO BE JOSH, THAT HER MOTHER, LISA, WILL NEVER FORGET. >> I HEARD MY HUSBAND SAY WHAT YOU MEAN. SHE WASN'T PREPPED REGION. 10 MINUTES. AND SO AS SOON AS I HEARD THAT, I SET UP AND WE STARTED GETTING READY DRIVE TO THE HOSPITAL. BY THE TIME WE GOT THERE, THEY COULDN'T REVIVE HER AND SHE WAS GONE. >> WITH MUCH OF THE WEDDING PAID FOR ALREADY. THE FAMILY SET OUT TO CALL VENDORS CLAIMING THEY RECEIVED IMMEDIATE REFUNDS FROM ALL EXCEPT ONE.
LISA'S MOST EXPENSIVE PURCHASE. THE PALACE EVENT CENTER OFFERING ONLY HALF BACK ON $4,000 PAID AT THAT POINT. I WAS LIKE, BUT ALL HE'S DONE IS PUT ALL AND THEN AS HER NAMES THEN PUT ON A DATE. >> SO I DIDN'T THINK HALF WAS REALLY FAIR. LISA SAYS A CONVERSATION WITH OWNERSHIP WAS HEATED AND UNPRODUCTIVE. A SLEW OF BAD REVIEWS FOLLOWING ON FACEBOOK WITH THE EVENT CENTER RESPONDING CLAIMING THEY WOULD NEED THE FAMILY TO ESTABLISH OKAY. LIZ LEGAL AIR IS. >> THAT PROCESS CAN PROVE PRICEY AND COMPLICATED SAYS LOCAL ESTATE ATTORNEY DAVID MCBRIDE COSTING POSSIBLY UPWARDS OF 2500 TO $5,000. TYPICALLY THEY PRESENT. >> COURT, THEY INITIATE A COURT PROCEEDING, CALLED A PROBATE STATING THAT THEY HAVE A RIGHT TO STEP UP AND BE THE PERSON RECEIVED DISTRIBUTION FROM THE ESTATE.
YOU'RE GOING TO SPEND MORE IN ATTORNEY FEES AND COURT COSTS AND ALL THOSE OTHER EXPENDITURES, THEN THEY'RE GOING TO ULTIMATELY RECOVER. IT'S SADLY HAPPENS FAR TOO OFTEN. WE FIRST LOOKED INTO THE SITUATION IN JULY. PALACE MANAGEMENT RESPONDED TO A REQUEST IN A STATEMENT SAYING IN PART THEY WERE VERY SORRY TO HEAR MCHALE IS PASSING AND THAT THEIR ATTORNEY WOULD BE DRAFTING UP AFFIDAVIT OF AIRSHIP TO CLEAR UP THIS WHOLE SITUATION. >> AND AFTER MONTHS OF A STALEMATE BETWEEN FAMILY AND THEN YOU SOME GOOD NEWS TO REPORT.
POLICE RECENTLY RECEIVING THIS IN THE MAIL FROM THE ATTORNEYS OF THE PALACE APOLOGIZING AT THE SITUATION BECOMING DIFFICULT AND INCLUDING A SMALL ESTATE AFFIDAVIT TO BE FILLED OUT AND MAILED BACK. THE ATTORNEYS PROMISING TO EXPEDIA. 8 THE REFUND ONCE THE PROCESS HAD PLAYED OUT. LISA SAYS SHE WAS PLEASED AT THE OUTCOME LAMENTING THE POOR REVIEWS THAT HAVE DOGGED THE VENUE IN RECENT MONTHS, HOPING THIS STORY WILL PROVIDE CLOSURE FOR BOTH FAMILY AND THE PALACE. HOPEFULLY WE HAVE A RESOLUTION AND WE CAN PUT THIS ALL BEHIND US.
BUT I WANT TO THANK EVERYBODY FOR THEIR SUPPORT IN GENERAL FOR FOR GIVING MY DAUGHTER. >> I'M ADAM SNYDER IN. >> YOUR CORE. AND IF YCOOUR NNE SOMEBODY .
