Bob,
I wanted to confirm that you got copies of the documents produced by SLK in July in response to our subpoena (SLK-0001 - SLK-9650). We assumed you did because you were copied on their letter that accompanied the production. Please let me know whether or not
you received copies.
Thanks.
Cory

Dear Mr. Johnson:
Enclosed on behalf of our client Jenkens & Gilchrst ("J&G"), please find a compact disc ("CD") containing certin .tiffimages that you indicated bye-mail earlier today are missing from our May 30, 2006 production in connection with the litigation in Stobie Creek Investments LLC v. United States (No. 05-748). In paricular, the enclosed CD contais the following Concordance images from the
J&G "Client Files":
(1) Images, in .tiffformat, for the 2,155 pages from JG-CL0280868 to JGCL0283022 that appear to have been missing from our original production. (2) Images, in .tiffformat, for the 17 pages that constitute the document bearng bates stamp numbers JG-CL0480555 to JG-CL0480571. It appears that the image for JG-CL0480568 was missing from our origial production.
(3) Images, in .tiff format, for the 4 pages that constitute the document bearng bates stamp numbers JG-CL0615133 - JG-CL0615136. It appears that the image for JG-CL0615133 was missing from our original production, and that the images for JG-CL0615134 to JG-CL0615136
were improperly numbered. Unfortately, JG-CL0615133 was not
scaned properly and, therefore, we do not have this page in our database.
