-Caveat Lector- Huang Asserts Fifth Amendment Tuesday, April 13, 1999; 4:57 p.m. EDT WASHINGTON (AP) -- Former Democratic fund-raiser John Huang asserted his Fifth Amendment rights against self-incrimination Tuesday and declined to answer questions in a civil lawsuit, a conservative legal group said. Huang testified in a deposition for a freedom-of-information case filed by Judicial Watch. The organization contends that Clinton administration officials at the Commerce Department, where Huang once worked, gave seats on trade missions to heavy campaign contributors for the Democratic Party. Judicial Watch also asserts that while on the missions, officials came in contact with Chinese agents linked to illegal Democratic contributions. Larry Klayman, head of Judicial Watch, said he asked Huang in a deposition whether he had provided truthful testimony earlier in the case and whether he had produced documents required by a subpoena. Huang pleaded Fifth Amendment rights to both questions, Klayman said. Huang's lawyer, Ty Cobb, was not immediately available for comment. The deposition will resume April 15. © Copyright 1999 The Associated Press DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion and informational exchange list.
