Re: Responses to Cert Petitions in Bradley
v. Mi 11i ken

Gentlemen:

I have completed reading the 
certiorari and Paul's outline of 
response. It appears to me that 
proceed to prepare a preliminary 
circulation to the rest of us.

petitions for 
a suggested 
Paul should 
draft for

I spoke with Norm yesterday and it appears 
that his schedule is too tight for him to do so. 
Although I haven't reached Lou or Nick for their 
reactions, their schedules are undoubtedly too 
tight to allow them to crank out a prompt draft.
It will no doubt be easier for all of us to work 
from and argue over a draft that Paul puts togeth­
er .
