RE: No. 01-12-00470; Entergy Corporation et al. v. David Jenkins et al.,
in the Court of Appeals for the First District of Texas
Dear Mr. Prine:
Appellants' letter-brief of April 30, 2015, mentioned a recent opinion
of the federal district court in Mississippi finding federal question
jurisdiction in a case involving the same System Agreement and similar
allegations as in this case. This is to advise the Court that the U.S. Court of
Appeals for the Fifth Circuit has denied the plaintiff's requests for a
discretionary appeal of that jurisdictional order. The appellate orders are
enclosed.
Sincerely,
/s/ David C. Duggins
