On certain occasions in the past, when the FBI was desirous of securing information from Mr. Sinatra or questioning him concerning certain matters, I have always made arrangements for Mr. Sinatra to promptly furnish such information and reply to any questions you may have. In many instances both Mr. Sinatra and I were puzzled as to why he was asked certain questions, but since we are both familiar with the procedures of the FBI, we never questioned the reasons or motives for the request for information. Mr. Sinatra has been subpoenaed by the New Jersey State Commission of Investigation, but on the advice of counsel he has elected to refuse to appear in response to that subpoena and to institute an action to challenge the constitutionality of that Commission and its procedures. The status of that action at this moment is that the United States District Court in New Jersey has ruled that Mr. Sinatra's Complaint does not raise substantial issues sufficient to justify the convening of a "three judge court".
