Ferrell et ux which is pending in the Circuit Court for Davidson County Tennessee docket number C 3563. I am enclosing a copy of the subpoena duces tecum which was issued and served on Jean Y. Dean the Executive Secretary of the Southeastern Insulation Contractors Association SEICA I had several conversations with Mrs. Dean and with Attorney Gardner Courson in Atlanta who represents SEICA Mr. Courson agreed that the requested documents would be produced on a voluntary basis for our inspection and copying Therefore we notified all counsel in the Ferrell lawsuit that there would be no deposition and no production of documents pursuant to the subpoena duces tecum You advised me that there was no necessity for an immediate review of the documents and it was several weeks before I was able to arrange a convenient time with Mrs. Dean for a review of the documents I went to Nashville on April 23 1982 and reviewed the documents produced at the home of Mrs. Dean Mrs. Dean agreed to copy certain documents which I designated and finally I received copies of the documents a few days ago I am enclosing a separate memorandum concerning the documents produced and comments about information which I obtained from Mrs. Dean Mr. Charles Carver an officer of Breeding Insulation Company and a director for SEICA met with us Both of them were very cooperative and friendly They seemed to have no knowledge of any controversy or pending litigation between the Contractors Association and the asbestos insulation product manufacturers Please review the enlosed memorandum and the documents which are also enclosed I do not feel that any of the documents contain any surprising or very significant information The minutes do establish that the Contractors Association learned about the asbestos hazard back in the late 1960's and that Sheckler did appear at one of the regional meetings I reviewed all of the documents produced but saw no necessity of copying other documents If you have any questions about the other documents or desire that I contact Mrs. Dean for any reason I will Mr. James K.
