Federal judges sue Uncle Sam over pay inflation
Forty four federal judges, led by Oliver J. Carter, sue the United States in the Court of Claims seeking compensation for reduced purchasing power since 1969. They argue pay must reflect inflation and request half to two thirds of a 34.5 percent decline in value, with chief judges among the plaintiffs. The suit, backed by former Supreme Court Justice Arthur Goldberg, notes judges cannot supplement income as others do. In San Francisco Hearst defense witnesses fight immunity and Fifth Amendment rights as prosecutors seek testimony in her bank robbery case.
