Memorandum

To:	All Administrative Assistants
From:	William L. Martin, III
Subject:	Assignment of Cases to Senior Judge Banke
Date:	August 5, 1997

Attached, please find a copy of your April distress list. Please mark your distress list indicating those cases that are not drafted (ND), in progress (IP), drafted (D) and/or circulating (C) so that I may assign cases from your office to Judge Banke for purposes of authoring the opinion, as well as cases from your office to Judge Banke to vote on in lieu of another judge in your Division.

If you do not have any cases on your April distress list which are in a non-drafted status, please let me know that fact.

Please mark your distress list and return it to me as soon as possible so that I may assign the cases to Judge Banke and his staff so that they may begin working on drafting the opinions.

If you have any questions, please contact me. Thank you for your cooperation.
