COMMITIEE
ON THE JUDICIARY
August 31, 1989WASHINGTON, DC 20510-6275
Mr. Alvin Hansen
5541 Schmale Lane
Paradise, California 95969
Dear Mr. Hansen:
Thank you for your recent letter regarding your
difficulties with three federal judges and a U.S. Attorney.
The Judiciary Committee does not investigate initial
complaints against federal judges or U.S. Attorneys. The
committee also does not intervene in pending court cases or
request that a judge hear or rehear a particular case. If you
would like to file a formal complaint against a federal judge,
you should write to the clerk of the appellate court. The
court clerk you should write to regarding each of the three
judges you mention in your letter is:
Ms. Cathy A. Catterson
Clerk
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit
U.S. Courthouse, Room 126
7th and Mission Streets
San Francisco, California 94103

If you wish to file a complaint against a U.S. Attorney,
you should write to:
Executive Office for U.S. Attorneys
Department of Justice
Constitution Avenue and 10th Street, N.W.
Washington, D.C. 20530
Thank you again for your letter. I appreciate your taking
the time to write, and I hope you will find this information
useful.
Sinc;~
