Re: Major v. Treen, Civil Action No. 32-1192 
  

Dear Lani: 

I received the statement of expenses and fees for Julius's 
trip to New Orleans. I will keep that in a file until it's time 
for a supplemental request to the court. However, please do what 
you can to note it on your own records. This does not fit into 
my bookkeeping system and I am afraid I could overlook that in 
the future. It would have to be presented to the court by way of 
affidavit from Julius and/or LDF in any event. 

1 got a call from Bill Quigley asking the same question you 
did about entry of an order. I called Judge Collins! law clerk 
and she said the judge had been very busy and had not been 
satisfied with the order that we had sent over. I understood her 
to say that the judge expected the bond to be resolved first 
whereas we had expected that the judgment would be entered and 
conditioned upon the subsequent approval of a bond. I explained 
our position to her. She seemed to understand and I believe she 
will speak with the judge and Bill Quigley to work out the 
mechanics. 

Best regards. 

Sincerely, 

BLACKSHER, MENEFEE & STEIN
