Supreme Court rules one contempt for witness refusals
The Supreme Court, in a 6-3 decision, held that a witness willfully refusing to answer related questions constitutes a single contempt. The ruling affects the criminal contempt conviction of Oleta O Connor Yates, among others, tied to 1952 Smith Act trial testimony about Communist affiliations. The court sent the case back for resentencing, noting the need for a unified contempt judgment rather than multiple counts, while a dissent criticized judicial overreach.
