You argue as to jurisdiction that Perlman does not apply because there is no privilege. And our argument on the merits is that there is a privilege. So privilege is at the heart of the jurisdictional question you raise, and at the heart of the merits. They cannot be separated. The Court needs to look at our merits arguments on privilege to determine the jurisdiction issue. For this reason, we believe that the Court should address both issues without bifurcation.

We have always appreciated your collegiality on these issues as well (and we know that your firm has quite an effective team put together). We've been wondering about the need for the filing of our brief while a contested (and, in our view, meritorious) jurisdictional issue is before the Court. In looking more carefully at the CA11 Local Rules, we notice that under the Rule 31-21(d), if the Court were to issue a jurisdictional question, that would stay the time for filing our brief for 30 days until EFTA00208564 the Court rules on jurisdiction. What would your position be if we restyled our motion along the lines of — Motion to Treat Victims' Motion to Dismiss and Subsequent Briefing as Equivalent to Issuance of a Jursidictional Question For Purposes of Briefing Schedule — i.e., our brief would not be due until 30 days after a court ruling on jurisdiction. That way, your brief would still be in and counted — does that resolve your concern? And S what is your position on all this? (Or can you provide the name and e-mail of the attorney handling the appellate issues?) I'm assuming that the Government does not want to have a brief due while the jurisdictional issue is pending.

The truth is that you've always been very prompt and cordial with me and I wanted to do the same for you. I know this is important to you so I wanted you to know we were looking at it and would respond quickly. Here's our position, please would you quote it in both of your papers: We object to the Court considering the motion for a stay and the motion to dismiss without also considering the merits of the appeal. We filed our merits brief early, two weeks before it was due, to facilitate the court's consideration of the substantive issues in an expedited basis. We do not object to the court ordering expedited briefing on the remaining briefs (response brief and reply brief) and an expedited oral argument schedule. --Jackie On Aug 6, 2013, at 8:52 AM, "Paul Cassell" < wrote: Hi Jackie -- Thanks!
