Memorandum

To:	Bill
From:	Lola
Subject:	Department of Archives Record Retention
Date:	September 18, 1997

I phoned Pete Schinkel , Record Management, Department of Archives and History Division at 656-
2373 and gave him the following information.

We have an approximate total of 260 boxes. Boxes contain case file folders with brief, enumeration of error, opinions, docketing notices, etc., of which he is welcomed to them. I also notified him that we maintain two master silver nitrate copies of the microfilm for those records as well and one reader copy (sorted by year). We would provide an index. There are a few miscellaneous rolls containing those documents which were out during the initial microfilming. We should have the last of those rolls by early next week which will complete the microfilmed copies.

Mr. Schinkel responded that he wants the 260 boxes, microfilm, and index. The information would be temporarily stored at the Murphy Avenue facility and later moved to the Department of Archives. Renovations at the Department of Archives are in progress and they expect completion in approximately a year. A brief detailed list of all the files would be necessary to start the transmittal, he asked the list be forwarded to him at the Department of Archives and History, 330 Capitol Avenue, S.E. , Atlanta, 30334. It will be OK to send the information via interoffice courier.

When the boxes are moved to the Murphy Avenue facility he stated that reference would be through the Clerk's Office, Court of Appeals. When they are moved to the final destination in the Archives, reference would be through the Department of Archives.

On a different topic, the files lying in the Water Lab on "hold" status have an attorney letter in file requesting the hold. I will stay in touch with the attorneys periodically to find out the latest status.
