WASHINGTON
Having concluded that it would be in the best interests of the
Court to have my successor appointed and confirmed well in advance
of the commencement of the Court's next term, I shall retire from
regular active service as an Associate Justice, under the
provisions of 28 U.S.C. 371 (b), effective the next day after the
Court rises for the summer recess this year.
Most respectfully yours,
John Paul Stevens
