Re: Whitfield v. Cllnton

Dear Kathleen:

I am enclosing draft answers to interrogatories 28, 42, and
43. The latter two were also answered in Plaintiffs' [First]
Supplemental Responses to Defendants' Expert Witness
Interrogatories, which were filed, I believe, sometime in June.
In fact, most of the interrogatories--Nos. 1-18 , 2L-24, 26-27 ,
41-47--were ansrrered completely at that tiure. I have compared
your proposed answers in the Third Supplemental Responses with
the ansrrers rre gave in the first supplemental set and they seem
virtually identical.

I shall caII you early next week about sending these off.
I'm sorry you lron't be able to come to San Antonio, but good luck
with your busy week.

S. Karlan
