: ACS BlogCourt Rules Administration Aides Can Be Subpoenaed
A federal judge ruled that Bush administration advisers must comply with subpoenas issued by Congress. Unless successfully appealed, former White House Counsel Harriet E. Miers and current White House Chief of Staff Joshua B. Bolten will be required to cooperate with the House Judiciary Committee’s investigation of the controversial firings of several United States attorneys.
The House has already voted to hold three of Bush’s advisers, including former top political adviser Karl Rove, in contempt for ignoring a subpoena. Marty Lederman, an associate professor of law at Georgetown, called the 93-page opinion by U.S. District Judge John D. Bates “an extraordinarily thorough, scholarly and thoughtful opinion – surely one of the best opinions ever written on questions relating to executive/congressional disputes.”
Lederman’s analysis of the decision is available on the blog, Balkinization.
