MESSAGE:

Dear Mr. and Mrs. Sweeney:

        I have not received a response from you to my communication of October 23, and October 29, 1997, copies of which I am attaching. Nor have I heard from Senator Tarr in response to my letter to him of November 18, 1997, a copy of which was sent to you.
        I must remind you of my obligation to report to the Court of Appeals, and therefore, I am requiring a response from you by December 12, 1997.

          Regards,

          ADMj
