Starr seeks appellate order in Lewinsky leaks dispute
Independent Counsel Kenneth Starr asked an appeals court to overturn an order to disclose information to show whether grand jury leaks occurred in the Lewinsky investigation. The hearing, held behind closed doors, included Clinton lawyers and Lewinsky aide Sidney Blumenthal as Starr faced questions from Secret Service officers. The matter centers on a district court ruling restricting disclosure of grand jury evidence and potential contempt findings against Starr. Clinton declined to comment as the proceedings continued and additional testimony by Secret Service officers was anticipated.
