Nick, I am in favor of the LNC joining this amicus brief. However, I am having surgery on Monday morning and won't be able to participate in an EC meeting until probably Wednesday.

Dear All,

Pursuant to the Policy Manual, Section 2.04(2), I am advising the LNC of a potential legal action.

Chris Wiest, our attorney in the KET lawsuit in Kentucky, intends to file an amicus brief in support of the Libertarian Party of Ohio in their ballot access case in the 6th Circuit. Counsel for the Ohio party has been consulted and approves. Mr. Wiest is preparing this brief pro bono on behalf of the Libertarian Party of Kentucky and would not charge us to be included as a party to the amicus.

I have attached the District Court decision being appealed and the statement of issues on appeal for those who may not be familiar with the case.

The filing deadline is June 29 (7 days after LP Ohio's deadline). I intend to ask for Executive Committee approval at the next available opportunity to join as an amicus in this suit.

Yours in liberty, Nick
