Mookie:

The other jackboot has dropped. I got this as a happy FAX surprise.
My report on DM has not been well-received, it appears.

In fact, it appears that I am being kidnapped to L.A. It says I
*must be there*, with a threat of being excommunicated from my
religion for not appearing.

Does this have a precedent on this miserable ball of mud we inhabit?

I cannot, in good conscience, submit to this kind of coercion. Even
if I felt it might accomplish anything to go there, my family is of
course dependent on my being here with them, and we are already in
financial straits, largely due to the uncountable hours I have
devoted to getting this thing resolved, and the expenses I have
incurred doing it.

My response to this will follow shortly.

                                    Randy

Re: Your Activities and Future

Dear Mr. McDonald,

    You are currently the subject of a Non-Enturbulatlon order
issued in July 1995. Since that time, you have sent numerous
communications to Church staff members and executives repeatedly
stating your disagreements with various Church personnel and
policies. You have spread black PR and lies in a suppressive fashion
in an attempt to attack the Church and the principals of the
religion.

    By your actions, you are clearly in violation Of your
Non-Enturbulation order issued pursuant to HCO PL 1 July 1965 Issue
I, ETHICS CHITS.

    However, before simply issuing an SP Declare, I am extending you
an opportunity to come in to OSA International and see if your
situation can be resolved with a face to face meeting. This
opportunity is being afforded you only because never having spoken
to you directly I have the hope that perhaps you may come to your
senses before it is too late.

    You must be here at OSA Int by Sunday, 12 May, 1996. I will
expect a call from you by no later than the end of the day Saturday,
11 May, confirming your arrival.

    If I have not heard from you by the end of Saturday, I will
treat your lack of response as a refusal to accept the invitation
and I will proceed in accordance with the above referenced policy.

                                    Sincerely,



                                    Kurt Weiland
