My mom left a fair number of 1972 Macintosh Apple computer stocks in a safe deposit box that was claimed by the NYS Comptroller after her death.

The stock had split 4 times to date.

I checked the box for the original documents to be sent to me. I completed all the paperwork But to cash them I would still have to apply to NYS to put them in my name.

I called repeatedly to be sure the original documents would be sent to avoid

The NYS State Comptroller illegally cashed them at face value and cut me a check for pennies instead of 5 figures.


I think I need a good lawyer.
