JFK Act Review  - Procedures for Appealing to President


I spoke today with Marvin Krislov of the White House Counsel's Office. They have set up the
following procedures for agency heads to appeal to the President the determinations of the JFK
Assassination Records Review Board.

Within 7 days of receiving the notification letter from the Board, if the agency head wishes to
appeal, he or his GC should send a letter to White House Counsel, attention Marvin Krislov,
detailing the specific determinations that it wishes to appeal to the President. The letter should
explain why the Board's decision should be reversed under the standards of the JFK Act. White
House  Counsel will make recommendations to the President within 3 weeks in order to meet the
30-day period. If necessary, White House Counsel will call for a meeting or other discussions
to flush out the issue.

Mr. Krislov advised me that the White House Counsel will be predisposed to disclosure, so the
agency heads  should very carefully pick their disputes. Mr. Krislov encouraged the Agency to
work out issues to the extent possible with the Board.

Mr. Krislov also added that if we know a particular issue will be appealed, that we may not want
to wait for the formal notification letter from the Board to make Counsel's office aware of the
issue and to brief our concerns.
