July 22, 2008 The Clerk of the Court U.S. District Court District of Delaware 844 King Street Wilmington, Delaware 19801 Re: Nelson v. Wilson, et al. 08-369 ­ GMS

Dear Clerk of the Court: The State Department of Justice ("DOJ"), through the undersigned Deputy Attorney General, represents the Delaware Department of Services for Children Youth and their Families, Division of Youth Rehabilitative Services ("YRS"), a state agency named as a defendant in the above-referenced litigation. Daniel Wilson, in both his individual capacity and as an employee of YRS, is also a named defendant in the action. The DOJ has determined that there is a conflict of interest in representing Daniel Wilson in this matter. Thus, undersigned counsel has requested, pursuant to Rule 68(f) of the Delaware Supreme Court, that the President Judge of the Delaware Superior Court appoint an attorney to represent Mr. Wilson. (Exhibit "A"). It is respectfully requested that this Court provide Daniel Wilson with leave to Answer the Complaint until such time as the President Judge appoints conflict counsel. I remain available at the Court's convenience should anything further be required.

Respectfully submitted,

Case 1:08-cv-00369-GMS
