Out-of-court Nixon tapes settlement collapses
Washington sources report that White House lawyers and special prosecutor Archibald Cox failed to reach any out-of-court agreement over President Nixon's tape recordings. After three negotiating sessions, the two sides announced the collapse, sending the constitutional dispute to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia, with likely Supreme Court review. The case centers on whether a jury must hear nine Nixon conversations about the Watergate bugging before indictments and charges are decided.
