Re: Delores Norwood, et al.,
vs. D.-L. Harrison, Sr., et al.
Civil Action No. WC70-53-K
Dear Jim and Norman:
I enclose a proposed order on remand requested by Judge
Keady. He has set the matter for hearing on Wednesday
in Greenville. I will be on vacation at that time
(hopefully somewhere in the Caribbean) and Ms. Nausead
Stewart will represent plaintiffs at that hearing.
Would you kindly review the proposed certification pro=
cedure and telephone Nausead with any further suggestions
no later than Tuesday afternoon. The present order draws
heavily from Green v. Connally, 330 F. Supp at 1170-1180.
Norman, I read your summary of Norwood. I don't see how
you can read Section V as indicating anything more than
that the issue of specific relief is wide-open. Didn't
we decide to litigate only those issues resolved in our
favor before the Supremes? I find the opinion perfectly
acceptable and I like the idea of having a shot at Judge
Keady (the three-judge district court has been dissolved)
on this question before fighting the issue on appeal.
Frankly, I believe Judge Keady will rule in our favor and
that the State will have to carry the appeal.
Y'all stay well. 1'l1 be returning in one week.
Sincerely,
SIME VYN DR E\/ENTLIA)
