Well, you've packed a lot of things in that question, so I'll start with one. It is a federal issue. They're a federal law enforcement agency and that usually would put them in a federal court, not a state court, which is the court that I'm running for, the state supreme court. When it comes to an issue as to protection of citizens rights or anyone's rights in the state of Wisconsin, obviously the state court's very interested in that and we take care to make sure that those rights are protected.
