To Whom It May Concern:

Pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act, I hereby request the following records:

Greetings,
I would like to request any and all investigative records you can provide in regards to George D. Hudgin. Specifically the conviction for his participation in the 3737 Financial L.P. commodity pool, also known as Hudgins Group and Hudg-Investments. The offender was sentenced in 2009 by the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas. The CFTC has published information previously about the case. I would like to request investigative reports leading to original indictment. If a pre-sentence investigation or report exists I would also like a copy of that. Also if available a record of how much money was recovered and how much was not recovered and if any is unaccounted for would be of special interest.

The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.

In the event that there are fees, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.

Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 20 business days, as the statute requires.

Sincerely,

alice valkova

Dear Ms. Valkova,

In response to your June 12, 2019 email, requesting the status of FOIA No. 18-00110, please find attached, the response of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to your FOIA request. Due to staff turnover and shortages, as well as the lapse in appropriations earlier this year, it took some time to sort through our backlog of FOIA requests, to determine the various stages of completion.

We apologize for any inconvenience that our delayed response may have caused.

Thank you,
