Were White House talks on the Q.T.? Starr could seek to skirt the attorney-client privilege

Article Abstract:

The presence of presidential advisers or other White House staff members at executive meetings could trump Pres Bill Clinton's assertion of the attorney-client privilege and allow Special Prosecutor Kenneth Starr to question parties about Clinton statements in these meetings on relationships to Monica Lewinsky and Paula Corbin Jones. Starr's assertion of a confidentiality requirement in attorney-client jurisprudence would follow a long tradition in that area.

Behind the big win; Robert Bennett's Skadden team tells the NLJ how it slam-dunked the Jones case for the president

Article Abstract:

Robert S. Bennett, Bill Clinton's lawyer in the Paula Jones sexual harassment case, states that associate Amy R. Sabrin played the most significant part in drafting the pleadings and bore primary responsibility for the motions practice, including the final motion for summary judgment. Katharine S. Sexton also played a significant part with the motions. Bennett, was, however, indisputably in charge and had a close hand in almost every part of the case.
