Abstract/Notes	The following Letter to the Editor was originally submitted by Alcantara & Ohm to the Journal of Chiropractic Medicine (JCM) in order to correct errors made by the author of the following paper: Roecker CB. Breech repositioning unresponsive to Webster technique: coexistence of oligohydramnios. Journal of Chiropractic Medicine 2013;12:74-78. The author's errors were also not caught by the Journal of Chiropractic Medicine’s peer review or editorial process. Considering the seriousness of the clinical and legal issues involved, Alcantara & Ohm, who are recognized experts in Webster’s Technique, wrote a letter to the editor of JCM - Claire Johnson - in an effort to correct the errors in the published paper. Dr. Johnson refused to publish their letter. In the interest of scientific interest and integrity we have agreed to publish Alcantara & Ohm’s Letter to the Editor.
