In re: FDIC v. Sweeney

Dear Mr. Shea:

        Please advise immediately whether you presently represent any non-governmental parties or parties which have not been disclosed, and further, whether or not there has been any assignment (or other transfer of any kind) of either the title, the underlying loan, or any interest in the Sweeney's property to any entity other than the FDIC.

                  Very truly yours,



                  Linda Thompson.
