Gesell rails at Nixon on Ehrlichman files access
U S District Judge Gerhard Gesell labeled Nixon's refusal to turn over Ehrlichman files "totally offensive" and "bordering on obstruction" after a 2 1 2 hour hearing. He warned of contempt and planned an order on the subpoenaed material, citing the exclusion of Ehrlichman's lawyer from the file room and vowing to investigate custody and control under the contempt statute. In a separate Washington matter, former Attorney General Richard G Kleindienst drew a suspended one month jail term and $100 fine for not fully answering questions before a Senate panel about the ITT antitrust case, with Judge George L Hart Jr noting the sentence as lenient given his integrity.
