FIFTH CIRCUIT 

OFFICE OF THE CLERK 

July 19, 1988 

Mr. Mark Gross, Attorney 
U. S. Department of Justice 
Washington, D. C. 20530 

In re: 38-3492 - Ronald Chisom, et al. 
vs. Edwin Edwards, et al. 

Dear Counsel: 

Having found the Amicus brief of the 
Justice Department in the original appeal of 
this cause extremely helpful, the Court would 
appreciate being advised of the Justice 
Department's position concerning the 
following: 

(1) the district court's grant of the 
preliminary injunction; 

(2) the appellants' motion to this 
Court for stay of the preliminary injunction 
pending appeal; 

(3) whether this Court should now stay 
so much of the preliminary injunction, if 
any, as prohibits the qualification actions 
to be taken during the period of July 27-29, 
1988, pending decision on the balance of the 
requested stay or on the merits of the appeal 
of the preliminary injunction. 

The Court would appreciate receiving the 
Justice Department's response, if any is to 
be made, as soon as practicable, and as to 
item (3) by not later than July 25, 1988. 

Very truly yours, 

GILBERT F. GANUCHEAU, Clerk
