Letter from Edward C. Schmults to William P. Clements regarding Ruiz v. Estelle consideration, April 16, 1982
-
Description
-
Letter from Edward C. Schmults to William P. Clements regarding Ruiz v. Estelle consideration. Schmults responds to Governor Clements request for a review of the DOJ's position and four-month delay in court proceedings. He addresses each of the three concerns the Governor had in his last letter: single celling, location of prisons near populations over 50,000 people, and limit to inmates per prison unit. Essentially, the Deputy Attorney General's response reassures the Governor that there is room for compromise on each of the issues.
