Dear Mr. Maier: Thank you for your letter regarding the DJ matter. Our research department cannot locate a DJ file on record for you, we have no record of DJ 1980-29 on file. We cannot file your Motion To Dismiss if we do not have record of the DJ case. It is a possibility that the case file was destroyed long ago as Juvenile matters get sealed as of the age of 18, and then are destroyed after the statutory time period for retaining them as expired.

Sincerely,
