Meyer" I received a letter from James Dale's lawyers today thanking me for sending in information about my experiences in scouting and asking for additional assistance. (For those of you who are not aware, James Dale is the scout who is suing the BSA in New Jersey). They wanted to know if any of us had received any response to the letter writing campaign that we undertook over the last several years. I recall that several of you received letters from local councils but didn't think that anyone received a letter from the National office. If you still have a copy of any letter received from anyone within BSA, please let me know, and I will tell you how to send it to James Dale's lawyers. The trial is scheduled for September 27, 1993. However, before the trial date, they plan to ask the court to consider the issues presented by the case and rule in James' favor, in the hopes that the court will be able to decide some or all of the important issues without a trial.
