This letter will confirm that the Committee on the Judiciary, United States House of Representatives has agreed with counsel for Judge Hastings, Terence J. Anderson, not to seek or accept from any source the grand jury materials covered by Order No. 87-1, entered by this Court on August 5, 1987, pending the decision by the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida on Judge Hastings' Emergency Motion to Stay and Unseal Miscellaneous Order No. 87-1. In Assistant Counsel Robert B. Levin's telephone conversation with Mr. Anderson on August 12, 1987, it was also agreed that the Committee's forbearance in this regard is without prejudice to its request for the grand jury materials. It is our understanding that the Court intends to set Judge Hastings' motion for hearing late next week, probably on Friday, August 21, 1987. We will await confirmation of the hearing date. Very truly yours, Aland. Boron que sal Alan I. Baron AIB: BOM CC: Terence J. Anderson, Esquire |
