[GSA Council] Appeal - CFS v. RAE - GSA- VERY IMPORTANT

[Alex Ocheoha]

Hello Vivek,

I mentioned it in the February 20, 2016 council meeting and was told to
leave it till the it be tabled till the March 16, 2016, so it was tabled.
We did not get to that point on the agenda during the March 16, 2016
meeting because the GSA internal matters was given priority.

The case is a complicated and has been going on for some years now. I will
try and put together a brief background later today if I am feeling better.
I am having a migraine and blurry vision and I still have to feed my
daughter.

I will not be able to send all the details by mail because it is
confidential. I spoke to Rahul over the phone and will welcome any more
phone calls.

Regards,

*Alex Ocheoha*
