Hoffa Subpoena Effort Blocked By Judge in Tampa
U S District Judge Joseph Lieb ruled that Hoffa attorneys did not provide enough reason to compel subpoenas for Cabinet members Kennedy and Goldberg, Sen McClellan and nine others. The subpoenas sought witnesses for a Monday Orlando court hearing on a motion to dismiss the Hoffa Rablemo McCarthy indictment over alleged misused union funds. The case ties to Sun Valley Inc., a Florida housing project, while the note about natural gas wells appears unrelated.
