COMMUNICATION FROM THE HONORABLE FORTNEY PETE STARK, MEMBER OF CONGRESS

  The SPEAKER pro tempore laid before the House the following 
communication from the Honorable Fortney Pete Stark, Member of 
Congress:

                                     House of Representatives,

                                 Washington, DC, November 2, 2009.
     Hon. Nancy Pelosi,
     Speaker, House of Representatives, Washington, DC
       Dear Madame Speaker:  This is to notify you formally, 
     pursuant to rule VIII of the Rules of the House of 
     Representatives, that I have been served with a subpoena for 
     testimony and production of documents issued by the Superior 
     Court of California, County of Yolo, in connection with a 
     traffic court matter now pending in the same court.
       After consultation with the Office of the General Counsel, 
     I have determined that compliance with the subpoena is 
     inconsistent with the precedents and privileges of the House.
           Sincerely,
                                                       Pete Stark,
     Member of Congress.

                          ____________________
