Re: Campaign v Giuliani @ P107ad 

Dear Counselor: 

THIS COMMUNICATION IS YOUR 20 DAY NOTICE PURSUANT TO 
SECTION 500.9(b). FAILURE TO COMPLY WILL RESULT IN DISMISSAL OF 

THE APPEAL, WITHOUT FURTHER NOTICE, TWENTY DAYS FROM THE DATE OF 

THIS COMMUNICATION. 

Pursuant to the Court's Rules of Practice, 500.9(b), 

"Where the court has notice of an appeal and if the appellant 
shall not have filed and served the papers required by section 
500.4 or 500.5 of this Part within the time prescribed by these 
Rules or by the date otherwise directed by the court, the court 

will issue to appellant by regular mail to counsel of record a 
notice that such service and filing be made within 20 days after 
the date of the notice, unless the court, in setting a date 
certain for filing, has indicated that such date is final or 
that no 20-day notice shall issue. After the 20-day notice, if 
any, has been received, but prior to the expiration of that 20- 
day period, appellant may, on good cause shown, request of the 
clerk of the court an extension of the 20-day period to a day 
certain. On failure to comply with the terms of the court's 
direction, original notice or the terms as extended by the 
clerk, an order shall be entered by the clerk dismissing the 

appeal." 

Very truly yours,
