Memorandum

To:	Chief Judge Gary B. Andrews
From:	William L. Martin, III
Subject:	A97A0789 . Roberto Rennes v. The State
Date:	September 30, 1997

Attached please find a copy of the Court history of the above referenced matter, as well as, a memorandum I received from Scott Henwood attaching a memorandum he received from Judge Johnson regarding Judge Beasley 's wishes to write on and/or publish the opinion in the above case.

The case was docketed on December 3, 1996 making it a January term case. On June 3, 1997, this Court affirmed the judgment of the trial court. You authored the opinion and Presiding Judge McMurray and Judge Beasley concurred.

On June 12, 1997, the appellant filed a motion for reconsideration which was denied on July 23, 1997. Thereafter, on August 4, 1997, appellant's notice of intent to seek certiorari was filed. The application for certiorari was filed with the Supreme Court on August 12, 1997, transferring jurisdiction to the Supreme Court of Georgia.

I have attached the voting sheet on the motion for reconsideration. It circulated to a seven judge court with only Judge Beasley voting to grant.

If you wish to discuss this matter with me further, please let me know.

Thank you.
