The panel in a letter, dated October 31, 2018, requested the governor to appear before it tomorrow to share his perspective on the allegations.

The panel requested him to submit a written, signed and dated statement on or before the date of the hearing.

The panel also granted the governor the liberty to come with his lawyer, if he so wishes.
