Re: Gingles v. Edmisten

Dear Folks:

Enclosed is a copy of a Motion to Consolidate and our response
to it. After my discussion with Chambers, w€ agreed that we
need to be kept informed of the proceedings in Cavanagh v. Brock
since if the Cavanagh plaintiffs win, we will automatically
1ose. The Cavanagh plaintiffs seek a declaration that counties
that are not Section 5 counties may not be divided. Chambers
al-so suggests that we may want to intervene as defendants in
Cavanagh v. Brock whether or not the actions are consolidated.
@ thoughts about that, p1-ease 1et me know.

Thank you.
