Aloha Ms. Reyes.  At no time did I ever say that I spoke for your family.  You suggested that  the issue of the Kingdom's continued existence did not arise in the contested case.  I knew that the issue did arise, so I commented on that assertion.  There is a difference between the Kingdom continuing to exist as a matter of law and the Kingdom having its own government in place.  The absence of a government would not extinguish the rights of the Kingdom.
