That said, this matter is unique for reasons you know better than anyone. Writ nses to complex legal claims - bogus or otherwise - is definitely not strength. On the other hand, she's ely good in court. I told Jeff t at perhaps it's best to partner you with and give you back up on motions and other legal pleadings from someone e se in my section with that strength. How do you feel about that?

You kind of know the lay of the land on the case, and I think we will get either Judge Middlebrooks, Judge Marra, or Judge Hurley. Tenacity, patience, and an ability to work with troubled young women will be key. Thanks. A. Assistant U.S. Attorney 500 S.
