U S District Court Judge Halbert O Woodward denied most defense motions to dismiss wiretap indictments against Nelson Bunker Hunt and W Herbert Hunt. Trial remains set for September 15 in Lubbock, with one exception about testimony exchange. A Dallas grand jury indicted the brothers in 1973 for hiring private investigators to wiretap employees of their late father H L Hunt. A separate Dallas grand jury indicted the pair and five others for conspiracy and obstruction of justice over efforts to cover up the wiretapping scheme.
