Claiming Non-Federal Arreete, Summoneee, Recoveries or Convictions: .
it is permissible to claim a local arrest, summons, recovery or conviction if the FBI eignliicentiy contributed to the accomplishment. A succinct narrative
setting forth the basis for the claim must accompany this report. When claiming a local recovery, enter the word "LOCAL" to the right of the amount. Enter
{LF" in the in-Jail" block for all life sentences and "CP" for capital punishment sentences.
Reporting Convictions:
Convictions should not be reported until the sentence has been issued. There are two exceptions to this rule. The conviction information can be submitted
by itself if:
1. The subject becomes a fugitive after conviction but prior to sentencing.
2. The subject dies after conviction but prior to sentencing.
An explanation is required in the Remarks section for either of the above exceptions.
Rule 20 Situations:
The field office that obtained the process normally the office of origin! is the office that should claim the conviction, not the office where the subject enters the
plea in cases involving Rule 20 of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedures.
Investigative Aeeietance or Techniques iAITe! Ueed:
-Since more than one IA/T could have contributed to the accomplishment, each iA/T used must be rated. !
-The IA/T used must be rated each time an accomplishment is claimed. For example - ii informant information was the basis for a complaint, an arrest, s
recovery and a conviction and it separate FD-51 be are submitted for each of the aforementioned accomplishments, the "informant information" block must be
rated on each FD-515 even if it was the same information that contributed to all the accomplishments.!

Re: John Gotti1
ADDENDUM: CRIMINAL INVESTIGATIVE DIVISION CIDLJ l/24/90, N@g4$h/f
This investigation focuses on John Gotti, boss of the
Gambino La Cosa Nostra LCN! Family, and the hierarchy of the
Gambino Family who regularly meet at the Ravenite Social Club in
Manhattan. New Yo ' ' 'Title III coveragei I b3
This Title III coverage has produced evidence of the Gambino
Family's involvement in murder, loansharking, labor racketeering,
obstruction of justice, public corruption, and gambling.
The Gambino Family, especially under the leadership of
John Gotti, is extremely active in its efforts to detect and
compromise the investigative efforts of Federal and state law b3
enforcement agencies. For exam le during the Bergen Hunt and b7DFish Club prosecution[::::::::i%::]and othersr_ig1y_tamnring by 7the Gambino Familv resulted in two mistrials. b'E
