Long Beach Judge Subpoenas Nixon in Watergate Case
Superior Court Judge Gordon Ringer, a noted legal scholar, orders President Nixon to appear at the February 25 pretrial hearing for three former White House aides charged with burglary and conspiracy in the Ellsberg psychiatrist office break‑in. The milestone marks the first subpoena of a U.S. president. Jefferson was subpoenaed in Burr’s treason trial. Ringer, 44, UCLA and USC graduate, known for strict courtroom decorum, is seen as a rising figure in California law. He has argued before the California Supreme Court and the U.S. Supreme Court.
