Judge presses for specifics to block Cheney energy task force records
U S District Judge Emmet G Sullivan warned the Bush administration he will reject any move to block release of Cheney energy task force records without concrete legal grounds. He said citing executive privilege or the Constitution is insufficient and urged a precise basis for withholding disclosures while suits by Judicial Watch and the Sierra Club seek access to membership and influence details. The government has until Sept 3 to respond to the plaintiffs' motion to release all White House records, as scrutiny grows over potential industry influence and FACA applicability.

Government Ordered to Release Detainee Names in 9/11 Probe
A federal judge ruled the United States must disclose detainee names in the Sept 11 investigation within 15 days with two exceptions. The decision also requires releasing names of attorneys representing detainees while keeping prison locations secret. The ruling involves civil rights groups led by the ACLU and centers on transparency versus security concerns raised by the Justice Department.
