I gave you what I thought were 4 copies of this pleading yesterday and sent
what I thought was 1 copy to Bob Vote. As it turns out, there may have been
separate garnishments against several Enron entities. Please get Bob to track
this down.

I gave this to Gail to handle. She in turn is getting Bob Vote to handle. In
the documents I received yesterday, I only saw an application for writ of
garnishment, not a signed order--do you have one?

Subject: URGENT STOP PAYMENT: Writ of Garnishment of money due CIGSA served
on EECC on April 10

EECC has just been served with a writ of garnishment from the 333rd Judicial
District Court of Harris County in connection with a judgment against
certain CIGSA entities. In the writ, the court very unambiguously and very
plainly commands that EECC is not to pay any debt or deliver any property to
CIGSA pending further orders from the court. The writ was issued to enforce
an judgment for $1.3 million awarded by the court against CIGSA in favor of
Richard P Estrada. EECC is also commanded to appear before the court and list
all funds/assets in our possession that might belong to CIGSA, and to
disclose what other persons we know ofif any, that might have such funds or
assets. The lawyer for Mr. Estrada is the same lawyer who successfully
garnished EECC in the past to collect sums owed other CIGSA judgment
creditors.

Please take this prohibition as applying even to cases where CIGSA might be
entitled to the money or the property under our contracts with them, or where
the funds or property are in joint venture acounts or custody in the US or
Mexico until we have had a chance to review matters in detail and make a more
accurate assessment. In the meantime, effective immediately, do not make ANY
payments to or on behalf of, or release ANY property to or on behalf of, any
CIGSA entity without first obtaining legal department approval. The court may
impose penalties for violations of its garnishment order.

We will assemble an appropriate litigation team to work onthis matter. Randy
Pais will be handling this for EEOS legal. I suggest that Mike Pearson and
Mark Brand get the word out to the Project Management and Project Control
teams on this matter ASAP.
