I don't know. Shouldn't there be copys of this check list some
where? and maybe intripplicate. As in the case you get a copy.
Another copy goes into your folder at work, who gets the third

authenticity of this document. You have an atty i presume. Since
you know about this, you have two months to disprove it. They may
have bought you time that will work in your favor.
