Hi Jeff – Sorry. I have an indictment going tomorrow so I haven’t had a chance to work on the notice yet, but, yes, I planned to use the 12/19 language. I am going to start working on that right now. As to filing the indictment under seal with the state court, I really think this is walking too close to a 6(e) violation, and since the state judges up here don't like us too much, Judge McSorley would probably order it unsealed which would cause huge problems, both in terms of Rule 6(e) and because the public reaction will be if the US had the evidence to prosecute all of these counts, which is he skating with 18 months? I haven’t heard anything from Roy or anyone else. Let me think about ways other than contacting the State Attorney’s Office to accomplish our goals. A. Marie Villafaña Assistant U.S. Attorney 500 S.

(USAFLS) Subject: Questions 1. Can we file the proposed indictment under seal with the State Court judge? The agreement states that the parties anticipate that this agreement will not be made part of any public record. 2. Was your suggestion to prepare a notice to victims incorporating the language of the 12/19 letter? Tracking: 831 EFTA00194197
