Clinton May Not Be Out of Legal Woods

President Clinton’s legal troubles may not be over: In Little Rock, Ark., U.S. District Judge Susan Webber Wright said she is prepared to consider whether he should be found in contempt of court for his testimony about Monica S. Lewinsky in Paula Corbin Jones’ sexual harassment lawsuit. Wright said she waited to address the issue because of the impeachment trial and because Jones’ case was before an appeals court. It was settled out of court in December for $850,000. Wright raised the possibility of contempt in a footnote to her decision Sept. 1 to release a transcript of Clinton’s testimony in a deposition in the Jones case. In the deposition, Clinton said: “I have never had sexual relations with Monica Lewinsky.” He acknowledged Aug. 17 he had had an inappropriate relationship.
