Reed,

The WALLENS briefs can be sequenced
by the date last modified, using
the DS command in the Norton Utilities,
or you can go by the dates above
the signatures, on the very last
page of each brief (not counting
the Proof of Service page).  No, 
there is no table of contents.

I seem to recall making minor clerical
updats to some of her briefs, so the
date-last-modified will not correspond
to chronological sequence.  Use the
dates above the signature lines,
on the last page of each brief (or the
Proof of Service date is also close
enough).

There is one header for the USDC
and another for the DCUS.
These are just templates, so I 
don't have to re-type them every
time I start a new pleading.

chronological, always.

 there are file

go by the dates above the signature lines.

  Is there available a table of contents, like your

no.

  or shall I just print 
>them and start reading, alphabetically by filename I suppose?

print them all, then pencil the upper-right
of the first page of any brief, using the
date above the signature line

Please make it simple on me:
tell me where you want all
of this stuff.  It is extra
work for me to customize 
routing (e.g. small here,
large there).  Occam's Razor
helps here.

I see.  This is a problem which
Microsoft has created;  call them
and see if you can pay them to
use my copy.  Upon receipt of 
your receipt, I will email you
the entire thing, in .EXE 
self-extracting archive format.

I don't remember.  I will look
at it.

Write to the Colorado State 
Records Custodian, and ask
for the copy of the U.S. Constitution
extant as of the year 1867.
They will show you a version
with the original 13th, and the
14th is the slavery ban; that's
it (no more amendments as of 1867).

When you get 14MB of inbound
email in the space of 18.5 days,
you don't always have the luxury
of tidying each and every response.
Sorry, Reed, but I have had several
clients stiff me for over $25,000
of legal work in the past 8 months,
because they have chosen to believe
that I am some kind of deep-cover
federal or state government agent.
People will rationalize anything;
but, unfortunately, I am very strapped
for time and funds right now.  Yes,
luxuries are nice, but necessities
come first.

By the way, I just REPLY to the 
origin email address; if you want
me to route answers to your home,
then originate your request from 
there;  if you want me to route
answers to your work, then
originate your request from there.
Fair enough?
