Please =ote that we already postponed this meeting once before at Dr. Kraussi>=99 request. We will not postpone the meeting a third time. Please be advised =hat there is no right for an employee to be represented by an attorney =uring an interview of this nature. However, OEI has agreed to permit =r. Krauss to have a "support person" present. The =upport person has no participatory role during the interview. If the =upport person cannot abide by that condition, the person will be =equired to exit the interview and wait in the reception area. Regards, Erin R. Ellison, =.D.

The meeting is indeed canceled, and I am afraid I will not budge =n that, so you should plan accordingly. I wanted to let you know that =oday in order to minimize the inconvenience to you. But I'm =appy to work with you on another date later this month. It would be great if we could avoid =etting off on an unnecessarily adversarial foot, and I am trying to be =olite while still making our position clear. You cannot, consistent =ith either your own policies or the due process clause, force Professor =rauss to have a meeting that he is not prepared to have. Rather than =rguing about that over email and inevitably escalating this to the =eneral Counsel's office, I think our time would better spent =inding a new date later this month once I've had a chance to =et up to speed. This is not a "no," by any means. It is =imply a "not yet." Thanks, and have a nice weekend.
