 investigation this case. If he didn't want to call it a "site visit," we=
 may be talking about mere semantics here. If he didn't bother to visit th=

&gt; <br>

 and expedite review of the case. In it the government says, among other=
 things, that Neither LtCol Sullivan nor Maj Gannon has ever visited the=
 site.<br>
&gt; <br>
&gt; There's frankly too much here to scan. I can fedex it to you if you=

&gt; Two questions which give rise to other questions:<br>
&gt; <br>
&gt; (1) Has Jones authenticated the non-sealed portions of the ROT of the=

&gt; <br>
&gt; (2) Do Neal, Hatham, and/or Meredith have access to the sealed ROT of=

&gt; The answer to (1) affects our optimal filing date. If Jones hasn't fi=
led the authenticated ROT before 9 June, there's no reason for us to file=
 our mandamus petition before then. If Jones hasn't filed the authenticate=
d ROT by 9 June, we'll have to make a decision about whether to go beyond=
 20 days from the ruling complained of to file the mandamus petition.<br>
