Re: State of Georgia -v- William Henry Furman 

Dear Jack: 

Please be advised that 1 forwarded the Brief, Enu- 
meration-of-Errors and the Opinion in the above captioned 

case to your office on April 30, 1969 which I am sure 

you are in receipt of at this time. . In the last cor- 

respondence that I had with your office I indicated that 

1'was filing a motion for a re-hearing, but as a second 

thought I decided that rather than waste time filing a 

petition for re-hearing I would simply file a petition 

to Stay the Enforcement of the Judgment of the Supreme 
Court therefore, allowing ample time in which to file 

a petition for Certiorari.in the Supreme Court of the 

United 

I am enclosing herewith a copy of this petition for 

your record. 

With best wishes and kind regards, I remain. 

Respectfully yours, 

B. £LLARENCE MAYFIELD
