Washington, D.C.2OOO5 Re: West Memphis Case Dear Rob: It was good talking to you. f wondered whether you'd yet surfaced from Louisiana. Herets the stuff I mentioned to you: (1) Ferquson v. Brick, 652 S.W.2d 1 (Ark. 1983), which deals with Leo Chitmanrs election (it was J12hn Walkerts case, Eo he might have some useful info for you); (2) Napoleonrs decision in Buchanan, the Jackson, Tennessee, case (which has a nice discussion of white-on-white, and a wee dig at Charfes Bull.ock); and my three-Judge court memo in chisom. The last is not likely to give you a lot of help. The best things Irve seen are the section in Wright and Miller cited in the memo and !{ilIiams, The New Three-Judse Courts of Reapportionment and Continuinq Probfems of Three-Judqe Court Procedure, 65 Geo. L.J. 971 (1977). Let me know if I can do anything else to help out. enclosures (3) Contribulions are dBdwtibb lor U.S. incomt tar purposes. The NAACP Legal oelense & Educational Fund, lnc.
