RE: Theodore Mead Kimble, and Ronnie Lee Kimble

Gentlemen:
 

As I have indicated to each of you in prior telephone conversations, conflicts with other trials and the Court's schedule will make it extremely difficult to bring these matters to trial during the March 2, 1998 term of court.
 

Therefore, the State of North Carolina will not oppose your motion to continue. The new trial date will be selected taking into consideration the information each of you has provided in regard to scheduling conflicts and vacations.
 

The remaining pretrial motions should be heard during the March 2, 1998 term of court.
 

The first matter for the Court's attention will be the case of James Silas Paschal. On Monday, March 2nd the court will be required to conduct an in camera hearing to determine what medical records of the defendant the State of North Carolina will receive. In order to insure the completion of that case during this term of court, it is important that the hearing be conducted on Monday afternoon.
 

The court has a schedule conflict on Monday March 9th , and in the morning, Tuesday March 10th

Please be prepared to suggest and agree upon a date for the hearing of the pretrial motions during the March 2, 1998 term, which does not conflict with the aforemention dates.

Sincerely,

/signature/

Richard E. Panosh,
Assistant District Attorney
