Letter to Gertrude R. Ticho, M.D. -- 1996

On about Friday May 17, 1996 I received in the mail a copy of the District's Reply Brief in Freedman v. D.C. Dept. of Human Rights, D.C. Superior Court.

Dear Dr. Ticho:

Thank you for speaking with me by telephone on Saturday May 18, 1996.

As you will recall, I stated that the Government of the District of Columbia has reaffirmed its prior (incorrect) determination that you spoke with Malcolm Lassman and Dennis M.  Race, two attorney managers at the law firm of Akin, Gump, Strauss, Hauer & Feld, in late October 1991.

It would be of great value to me if you could write out on your professional letterhead the following simple and brief statement that fully disavows the allegations made by the Government of the District of Columbia.

• I did not make any of the statements attributed to me by the D.C. Department of Human Rights in Finding of Fact no. 6 in the letter of determination issued June 30, 1993 in Freedman v. Akin Gump.

It's that simple.  It should require only two minutes of your time.  I will be forwarding your statement to the Office of Corporation Counsel of the District of Columbia--the attorney for the city.  For your information I enclose a copy of the referenced determination made by the D.C. government that incorrectly refers to you.

I thank you very much for your assistance in clearing up this unfortunate misunderstanding.

Sincerely,

Gary Freedman
