Dear Mr. Barbash:

l Your letter of November 26, 1986 to Judge Margulies has been j t

referred to me for reply.

In carrying out his official responsibilities as an administrative l

law judge, Judge Margulies is governed by the Canons of Judicial Ethics <

promulgated by the American Bar Association. Those Canons direct that "A judge should abstain from public comment about a pendingitor Consequently, impending would be '

proceeding ... ." . [ Canon 3. Standard A (6)].

appropriate for Judge Margulies to give his opinion of the Shoreham  !

proceeding only after the case is no longer in litigation.
