Nixon Sues For Control Of Records In Federal Suit Over Presidential Materials
Former President Richard Nixon files a federal suit to keep custody of millions of documents from his administration. He seeks to prevent disclosure by Philip Buden and two officials, claiming a Sept 6 agreement with the Ford administration places materials with the GSA near his California home and grants him access and control over destruction of recordings. The Watergate prosecutor and White House movement restrictions are cited as interfering with Nixon’s contractual rights and presidential privilege access.
