The initial response was positive, but I have not seen a letter yet. I will advise that we'd really like it by COB Monday (Paris time). For State, we had an email exchange yesterday. They do not seem inclined to support including the French MFA letter from the Peterson case; however, they are proposing instead to provide a declaration for your use as a supporting attachment. I think this could be very effective, but I've asked what specifically they would be willing to say...and we're waiting to hear back.

Our apologies for the bother, but we wanted to follow up on our conversation in light of our quickly approaching deadline. In particular, we were wondering if Mal will be providing a letter and if so, your understanding of what will be in that letter. We were also wondering if you have any update from State about its position on us discussing particular cases (or open source material at a minimum). Thanks very much for your assistance — we really appreciate it. Best, EFTA00086942
