MR. H. CHODOS: Yes, Your Honor. I just wanted to
explain.
THE COURT: What I have read, obviously, are copies
of documents which counsel furnished me. I am concerned
about the scope of the relief that is sought.
I am concerned about the ex parte nature of the
proceedings, and the rather majestic order which would flo\<.·
from these proceedings without a hearing. I arr. not
9
unmindful there are charqes that dissipation of the properties
10
may occur, and I am also not unmindful of the one cruncher,
11
if you will, which is the proposed sale of the Big Sandy
12
property on January 4th, or the proposed completion.
13
I have read the declarations pretty carefully.
14
The rest of the matters, and some of the supporting data,
15
obviously, in the length of time afforded to me, I have
:�
barely skimmed through;some of the financial matters which
17
are referred to in one of the declarations -- I guess it is
18
Mr. Chapman's declaration -- are matters which I have just
19
glanced at; obviously, I haven't digested those in any form.
20
I would like to be enlightened, perhaps, about
21
how far my writ runs in the first place. Can I really do
22
anything about a real property tran�action which is going
23
to close, apparently, in Texas? I don't have anybody before
24
me, as I understand it. I will have somebody before me if
25
I issue this order in due course. Presumably, Mr. Rader or
26
Mr. Herbert Anrstrong or somebody will be served.
27
Let me hear from the Attorney General or from
28
Mr. Chodos, whoever is carrying �he ball here.
