Patricia Love, an attorney with Hendricks and Hendricks, told the Middlesex County Municipal Joint Insurance Fund at its Oct. 30 meeting that a judge entered a judgment on July 15, 2025, in favor of her client, a Brunswick firefighter injured at work in 2021, and that the judgment had not been paid.
"The judge entered a judgment on 07/15/2025, which has not been paid," Love said during public comment, and she asked whether judgments and claims were being paid pending ongoing litigation and funding decisions.
Love provided a breakdown of the amounts she said were associated with the judgment: $90,400 owed to the claimant; $9,040 of that amount to be paid to her office; an additional $13,560 to be paid to her as fees beyond the $90,400 (she characterized her total fee as $22,600); and separate payments to doctors (two forensic reports at $300 each) plus smaller reimbursements. She asked the fund what she should tell her client about payment timing, noting a statutory 60‑day payment window referenced in the meeting.
Fund staff said they would follow up with Love the next business day to reconcile final numbers and work through payment details.
Because the public transcript and speakers did not identify a specific statutory citation, this report states the meeting reference as "state statute (unspecified)" regarding the 60‑day payment period. The fund did not provide a public timetable for payment during the meeting; staff committed to follow up directly with Love.
