Support letters requested

We've finally gathered what we think is the pertinent information for writing letters in support of Randy for the sentencing hearing. 

We have submitted a motion for new trial, and the hearing for that motion is now scheduled for 9:30 am on March 12th just before the sentencing hearing. If the judge grants the motion, there wont be a sentencing hearing.  We believe we have grounds for the motion for a new trial.

We welcome letters to be submitted in support of Randy.

Letters should be to the judge, but they will need to be sent to and submitted through Randy's attorney. These should be written and submitted to us by March 6th. 

Send email copies to:

james_leuenberger@mac.com    and

grayrdL@gmail.com

and mail a hard copy to:
James E. Leuenberger

Attorney and Counselor at Law

P.O. Box 1684

Lake Oswego, OR 97035

The letter should be in business format:

Your name

Your address

Date

(Judge name and Address)

The Honorable Judge Thomas A. McHill

Linn County Courts 
PO Box 1749 
Albany, OR 97321 

Address the judge as Your Honor (with Y and H capitalized)

Contents:
