We are close to making a decision on whether to use F&J or some other firm for a new Mariner matter. I anticipate that if we retain some other firm besides F&J, F&J may want to give us our files back, per the original Gus Blackshear letter to Jim. Of course, F&J will insist in giving back one of Mark's files under any circumstance. Put aside for a moment the problematic ethical issue that I believe that raises for F&J and whether we would pursue F&J for taking such an action. If F&J sends our files back, can we live with that in the cases/matters you are handling? For Mark, Jordan and Theresa, I of course already have Theresa's voice-mail regarding the new Mariner matter, and have (along with Jim) spoken with Scott Josie. I also have an urgent call in for Kelly Zelacovitz. If there is anyone else you think I should include in this e-mail, please let me know. Please reply ASAP. Britt
