House Judiciary already familiar with sex, lies

Article Abstract:

The House Judiciary Committee rarely acts in a nonpartisan, consensus fashion, and history gives ample testimony to this fact. In 1983, Chmn Henry Hyde fought other conservatives' attempt to expel "family values" Illinois Republican Rep. Daniel B. Crane for an adulterous affair with a 17-year-old House page. The House at the same time voted for a censure of Democratic Repesentative Gerry E. Studds for sex with a 17-year-old male page a decade earlier. The partisan controversy over releasing Clinton's videotaped testimony could foretel more of the same to come.

Companies tell their lawyers to join firms; outsourcing attorneys: an experiment in cost savings

Article Abstract:

The latest trend in corporate counsel cost control is to outsource part of the company's in-house work, including the relevant lawyers. Bell Communications Research Inc, one of the wholly owned subsidiaries of the seven Bell Telephone regional operating companies, did so by sending its contract work, along with 8 of its 19 lawyers, to Roseland, NJ's Friedman Siegelbaum, a law firm specializing in computer and communications law.
