The following year, on February 1, Ward sold Belgrave Square to Brianna by a quitclaim deed. Brianna recorded her deed but did not take possession. On March 1, in exchange for $150,000 in cash, Ward gave Shaun a special warranty deed for Belgrave Square. Shaun recorded the deed but did not take possession. On April 1, Shaun sold Belgrave Square to Nevins by quitclaim deed. 

Nevins moved in on April 2nd. On May 1, Brianna showed up at Belgrave Square to take possession and was refused entrance by Nevins. Brianna then threatened to sue both Nevins and Ward. Nevins called Shaun and demanded Shaun do something. Shaun called Ward and told him what happened. Ward calls you.
