RE:      Conti Enterprises, Inc. v. U.S.D.A. Natural Resources Conservation Service  AGBCA #97-191-1

Dear Erich:

I want to thank you for your expert, and timely assistance in helping the Government defends against Conti Enterprises’ $6 million claim.  Your expert analysis of Conti’s construction superintendent’s work diary was the most important evidence in the Government’s defense and when confronted with your analysis, and other matters, Conti decided to drop its claim entirely.

Thank you for your patience, and a job well done.  I learned a great deal from talking with you, and consider your firm to be a resource to be drawn on in the future.

Sincerely,

Nicholas Mamone
Attorney
