Dear Laughlin:

Thank you for agreeing to send me the complaint
and briefs in Searcy v. Wrll-iams. I will probably
call you after I read these arguments with some
more questions. Please bear with me.

I enclose the Motion in Limine with Affidavits
and Brief that T promised to send. After you
review them, you wilI understand why opposing
counsel moved to disqualify me as counsel. The
judges denied the motion, but it promises to
remain an exciting case.

I look forward to seeing you or, dt least, talking
with you soon.

Lani Guinier
