Clyde Slick last week. I was out of the country last week and he is out
this week. He responded to me and we are planning to talk next week when
he returns. My sense is that we are both still committed to finding some
business solution – it has been scheduling difficulties rather than a
lack of intent that have caused the slow progress. I’m glad to see
that Mike Dodd is still looking for a better answer. I’ll update you after I talk
with Clyde next week. Peter From: Herbert Rosenblum

Mr.
Dodd has responded in the affirmative. His focus is on accomplishing what
we agreed to during our last session. To that end he is open to suggestions on
how to proceed. From: Lewis, David J. [mailto:dlewis@Sidley.com] Counsel As I
have previously indicated, the ADR Office at the Court would like to close out
the mediation in this case unless the parties are actively continuing to use
the process. Based on my conversation with Mr. Faraj, and my most recent
email with Mr. Rosenblum, I understand that the parties are still interested in
a negotiated resolution, but that little or no progress has been made
since our last session. I am willing to do whatever I can to assist, but
I cannot do anything unless both parties agree to make use of my services. So
that I can advise the ADR Office, I would appreciate your conferring with each
other and letting me know by the end of the week how you would like to
proceed. My understanding is that even if the mediation is closed out
now, it can be re-opened later if the parties jointly request. David
