Watergate figure James W. McCord moved in U.S. District Court to void Ford’s blanket pardon of Nixon and challenge the tape agreement arguing presidential pardon powers do not cover impeachment cases. Separate filings asked an inquiry into Nixon’s fitness to testify, as prosecutors seek Nixon’s appearance in Oct. 1 trials.
