Rosalsky Upholds Privilege in Cravath Case
Judge Otto A. Rosalsky denied District Attorney Jerome’s bid to force Paul Cravath to answer grand jury questions about the sale of the Wall and Cortlandt Street Ferries Railway in 1902. The decision criticizes the DA’s conduct, refuses to hold Cravath in contempt, and orders further evidence to another grand jury while preserving attorney client privilege and rejecting misuse of the investigation.
