COMMUNICATION FROM DISTRICT DIRECTOR OF HONORABLE FRANK PALLONE, MEMBER 
                              OF CONGRESS

  The SPEAKER pro tempore laid before the House the following 
communication from Paul Dement, District Director of the Honorable 
Frank Pallone, Member of Congress:

                                     House of Representatives,

                                Washington, DC, November 24, 2003.
     Hon. J. Dennis Hastert,
     Speaker, House of Representatives,
     Washington, DC.
       Dear Mr. Speaker: This is to formally notify you, pursuant 
     to Rule VIII of the Rules of the House of Representatives, 
     that I have been served with a civil subpoena for documents 
     issued by the Superior Court of New Jersey, Ocean County.
       After consultation with the Office of General Counsel, I 
     have determined that it is consistent with the precedents and 
     privileges of the House to notify the party that issued the 
     subpoena that I do not have any responsive documents.
           Sincerely,
                                                      Paul Dement,
     District Director.

                          ____________________
