Court orders federal judges to reveal finances
The Supreme Court refused to exempt federal judges from a financial disclosure law, confirming that judges must publicly disclose assets under the Ethics in Government Act of 1978. Six Southern judges argued the rule infringed privacy and separation of powers, while remaining rulings require disclosure to the judiciary's ethics body. The decision accompanies actions upholding a Look magazine libel award to Joseph Alioto and other rulings on postal mail, a private home pamphlet case, and a California teen murder conviction appeal.
