Grima Crebain
Attorney at Law
Dear Sir/Madam:
We hereby acknowledge receipt of your letter to Mr.
Frodo Baggins dated January 8th, last and confirm that
we have been retained as legal counsel on behalf of
Mr. Baggins in this regard.
We further acknowledge that Mr. Baggins may be in possession
of an item similar to that which your client claims
ownership.
However, we hereby decline your client's request for
return of the said property, and provide therefor the
following argument:
1. It is abundantly clear that the case law of Bridge
v Hawksworth and Parker v British Airways
would be applicable herein; and
2. Insasmuch as the said item has been a family heirloom
in the possession and use of the Baggins family for
several decades, it is clear that the Statute of Limitations
for your client's claim to such property renders any
such claim null and void.
We trust that this letter will satisfactorily settle
any claims that your client may have in this regard.
We remain,
Yours faithfully,
Dewey Cheatem & Howe
Barristers and Solicitors
