                                      Office of Inspector General,


                                     House of Representatives,

     House of Representatives, Washington, DC.
       Dear Madam Speaker: Pursuant to Rule VIII of the Rules of 
     the House of Representatives, this letter is to notify you 
     that I, Joseph C. Picolla, Inspector General for the U.S. 
     House of Representatives, have been served with a subpoena 
     for documents issued by the Superior Court for the District 
     of Columbia.
       After consultation with the Office of General Counsel, I 
     have determined that compliance with the subpoena is not 
     consistent with the privileges and rights of the House.
           Sincerely,
                                                Joseph C. Picolla,
     Inspector General.
