Judge limits North's use of data in trial
U.S. District Judge Gerhard Gesell sharply curtailed Oliver North's access to classified documents in the Iran-Contra case, allowing only about 300 of an estimated 3,500 sensitive pages for his defense as prosecutors press to protect national secrets. The ruling signals a trial likely to begin in late January, with ongoing questions over the 30,000 pages total and the Classified Information Procedures Act.
