What about Monday, November 12 through Wednesday, November 14? I’ll check the Law School’scalendar to make sure those dates work.

When I mentioned the legal agenda, I had in mind something that Frank Easterbrook said a few months ago. He talked

about how he had worked in the Solicitor’s Office to get certain cases before the Court. I thought that it might be

interesting to discuss the Bush Administration’s aims in that regard. To go in the other direction: I was speaking with

Gene Meyer today, and he mentioned that you have done substantial work on the separation of powers. What about a

panel on Bush judicial selection -- at all levels, including the Supreme Court -- and the prope~r role of the Senate in theconfirmation process? The level of deference due a President’s nominations, and so on. Perhaps that would be both

topical and a bit more scholarly.However, I’m open to developing the topic through the fall, especially if an issue arises in your work with the OLC thatyou would like to discuss. I will get back to you wffhin the next few days on Nov. 12-14.Again, many thanks for all your help --Jeff

October is pretty much booked for me, so I think the best time for mewould be November. I am happy to come outearly in the week, say on a Monday, and I am equally happy to do the event at a lunch time°

In terms of topics, Bush judicial selection is certainly fine. We could also talk about Supreme Court appointmentpossibilities. What else on the legal agenda would you be curious about?

<< File: tmp.htm >:~ Deputy Assistant Attorney GeneraI-Yoo:

It’s wonderful to hear that you’re interested in speaking. This early in the year, most dates are still open, so we’rehappy to accommodate your visit at a time most convenient for you. If you have an idea which time of the year mightwork best, I’ll throw out some datesand we can work from there. Beginning with just the.fall quarter, I still have open

space in early and mid-October, and then again in mid-November.Our most popular events are held during the noon hour, and usually events earlier in the week draw greater response.As for topics, I’m not sure what’s of particular interest to you or the OLC generally. Perhaps we could arrange a paneldiscussion on judicial nominations, or the Bush Administration’s legal agenda? I’m open to suggestions, and I think that

we would be pleased to hear from you on any matter you deem appropriate.

After today, my contact information is:

I hope that we will be able to work out a visit to the Law School this year. Thanks --

Jeff

Thanks very much for your invitation. I would be very interested in speaking. Right now, I have taken a year off and am

serving as a deputyassistant attorney general in the Office of Legal Counsel at DOJ. So it

may be harder to schedule, and it may be harder to figure out a topic.
