Dear BilI:
RE: Valteau v. Edwards

Steve Ralston, LDF First Assistant Counsel, indicates
that I should be billing at $180.00 per hour rather
than the $160.00 figure f initially proposed. Steve
believes we can justify the higher figure according to
prevailing New York rates.

I would therefore be asking for $3806.00 in fees plus
$415.67 in expenses.

Iy,

Lani Guinier
