Re: Heine v. Raus, C. A. No. 15,952
Dear Judge Thomsen:
Counsel for the plaintiff respectfully requests a hearing
in the above-styled case concerning the following matters:
1. Hearing on Motion to Strike Order Allowing Amendment
of Answer.
2. Hearing on Objections to Interrogatories.
3. Hearing on Motion ~=or Surmnary Judgment.
4. Hearing on in camera Filings of May 31, 1966.
Several days ago, I talked to Mr. Connolly about suggesting
a date for the hearing to Your Honor that would be convenient
to all counsel and which could be accommodated in the schedule of
the Court. However, Mr. Connolly advised me that in the Transcript
of Proceedings of May 13, 1966, Your Honor had outlined a time-
table for the filing of briefs and also for the request by either
side for an oral argument on the issues. He stated that he had
not requested an oral argument, but that if I do so, that the
same be set for the third or fourth week in September. Both
Mr. Connolly and Mr. Stanford have trials scheduled in your Court
earlier in September, and Mr. Lawrence R. Houston, General Counsel
of the Central Intelligence Agency, will not return from his
vacation until the 12th of September. Accordingly, if Your Honor's
schedule permits, we request that the hearing be set during the
week of the 19th or the 26th of September.

I apologize for any inconvenience and imposition my
request at this time might have on the Court, but perhaps
I mistakenly inferred from Your Honor's letter to us of
May 31, 1966, that a hearing date would be set by the Court
without request of counsel.
Most-respectfully,
ERNEST C. RASKAUSKAS
