Lamont Indictment Dismissed over Senate Contempt Charge
Federal Judge Weinfeld dismissed the indictment of writer Corliss Lamont for contempt of the Senate in refusing to answer 28 questions in 1953 before the Senate Investigating subcommittee led by McCarthy. Lamont, a former Columbia lecturer, had refused to testify. The ruling cited the indictment as barren of prosecutable facts about the panel’s inquiry authority.
