"Miers Wins Bid to Delay House Testimony on Firings"

"Miers Wins Bid to Delay House Testimony on Firings": James Rowley and Robert Schmidt of Bloomberg News provide a report that begins, "A U.S. appeals court postponed congressional testimony by former White House Counsel Harriet Miers on the Bush administration's firing of nine federal prosecutors. The three-judge panel in Washington today agreed with the administration that Miers shouldn't have to testify until the appeals court rules on the merits of the case, which tests the limits of executive privilege."

And Lara Jakes Jordan of The Associated Press reports that "Bush aides win delay for congressional testimony."

You can access today's ruling of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit at this link.
