Re: City of Mobile, Alabama, et al. v. Bolden, 
et al., U.S. Supreme Court No. 77-1844 

Dear Mr. Schnapper: 

You have asked for our consent to an extension of time for 

the filing of briefs in City of Mobile, Alabama v. Bolden, No. 
77-1844, on the ground that this case will be argued on the same 
day as Williams v. Brown No. 78-357 and that, therefore the Mobile 

briefing should be completed at the same time as in Williams. 

  

  

  

We do not consent to the precise schedule you propose, but 
we will consent to a schedule which comports more closely to the 
goal of a coordinated briefing schedule; namely that the Appel- 
lants' Briefs in both cases be filed on the same day and that 

Appellees' Briefs be filed on the same day. Adopting the Williams 
schedule, the dates would be: 

  

Appellants' Briefs in Mobile and in Williams: December 14, 
1978 

Appellees' Briefs in Mobile and in Williams: January 15, 

1979 

  

  

Sincerely, 

Charles S. Rhyn
