Re: Furman v. Georgia 

As you may have noted from copies of 
correspondence, the Supreme Court of 
Georgia refuses to furnish a certified 
copy of the transcript without payment 

of costs. 

Peter Rindskopf conférms that nothing 
short of an order from the Supreme 
Court of the United States would make 

them do so. 

Query: whether we simply pay the money 
or whether we wish to make this one of 
the #issues in the petition for cert.? 

Let's try to conclude this along with 
the Virginia matter by Friday, June 6th.
