The document discusses the disposition of government property at former President Nixon's San Clemente residence. It concludes that the Presidential Protection Assistance Act of 1976 does not apply to the termination of government services at the estate and that the government is not obligated to restore the property to its original state. The document also addresses the legal obligation of the government to comply with Nixon's request for removal of government items and restoration of the property, as well as the government's right to reimbursement from Nixon for the portion of the sale price attributable to government improvements. The questions presented for review include the applicability of the Presidential Protection Assistance Act, the legal obligation to restore the property, and the government's right to reimbursement.
