Re: Doe, et al. v. Poore, 

No. 4:15-cv-623-DPM 

I'm enclosing a copy of a letter I got this week and my response. Mrs. 

Appleton and my deceased Mother were close friends. I don't know for sure, 

but my educated guess is that Mrs. Appleton is in her nineties. I do not see 

her often anyn1ore. I am disregarding what was said about the case. Please 

Case 4:15-cv-00623-DPM Document 86 Filed 11/03/16 Page 2 of 6
let me know if you wish to respond or believe I need to take any step beyond 

my response. Code of Judicial Conduct for United States Judges, Canon 3(A)(4). 

Best regards.

Dear Marystel,

f'AX: (501) 604-5417 

I did receive your October 17th letter. It was good to hear from you. I 

hope you're doing well. Polly is fine, as are our girls, who've grown up and 

gone off to school. 

You're kind to be keeping up with my court work through the 

newspaper. And I appreciate your thoughtfulness in writing to me. I can't 

discuss my cases, though, or get any information about them outside the 

courthouse. I must put your e-mail exchange with Ms. Saviers out of my 

mind so I can stay impartial in the case. I thank you for your understanding 

in all this. 

I hope to see you around Jonesboro soon. My best personal regards. 

DPM:sb 

Very truly yours, 

a '
