Raytel, of San Mateo, CA, announced last month that it was preparingto launch a tender offer for all outstanding shares of MDI, ofBurlington, MA (SCAN 12/14/94).

A hearing on the lawsuit is expected to take place in January.Meanwhile, Raytel has until Jan. 3 to complete the tender offer,although the deadline may be extended.
