MARTIN D. HAVERLY ATTORNEY AT LAW Two East 7th Street Suite 201 Wilmington, Delaware 19801 Licensed in Delaware and Pennsylvania Telephone (302)654-2255 Facsimile (302)654-0175 November 29, 2007 Via E-Filing The Honorable Mary Pat Thynge United States District Court 844 North King Street Lock Box 8 Wilmington, DE 19801 RE: RE: Jamison v. New Castle County, et al., C.A. No. 04-1568-MPT

Dear Judge Thynge: Plaintiff in the above captioned case hereby waives his right to file an Answering Brief concerning the Defendants' Partial Motion to Dismiss. Plaintiff recognizes that the Garcetti v. Ceballos, 126 S. Ct. 1951 (2006), case applies to Count I. So that claim is no longer valid. Had Defendants' counsel contacted Plaintiff's counsel prior to filing the Partial Motion to Dismiss, then Plaintiff would have stipulated to the dismissal of Count I and the individual defendants (Thomas Gordon, Sherry Freebery, Col. John L. Cunningham and David F. McAllister) without the need for the County Defendant to incur fees and costs for the preparation of this Partial Motion to Dismiss. Respectfully submitted, /s/ Martin D. Haverly Martin D. Haverly Del. Bar No. 3295 MDH/acs
