   COMMUNICATION FROM THE HONORABLE FRANK R. WOLF, MEMBER OF CONGRESS

  The SPEAKER pro tempore laid before the House the following 
communication from the Honorable Frank R. Wolf, Member of Congress:

                                    Congress of the United States,


                                     House of Representatives,

                               Washington, DC, September 10, 2012.
     Hon. John A. Boehner,
     Speaker of the House, U.S. House of Representatives, 
         Washington DC.
       Dear Mr. 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 documents issued 
     by the Fairfax County Circuit Court in connection with civil 
     litigation currently pending before that court.
       After consultation with the Office of General Counsel, I 
     have determined that compliance with the subpoena is 
     inconsistent with the privileges and precedents of the House.
       Best wishes.
           Sincerely,
                                                    Frank R. Wolf,
     Member of Congress.

                          ____________________
