I believe that you already have a copy of the complete agreement, but, if not, please execute the Protective Order and return it to me. I would also ask that, prior to showing the Agreement to others, including your co-counsel and the victims, you have each of them review and execute the Protective Order. Please return those signed Protective Orders to me for my file. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns. I also would appreciate it if you would send me your e-mail address so that I can send the updated victim log to you via e-mail. Sincerely, R.
