Cheney's State Residency Qualified

NEW ORLEANS –– Dick Cheney is a Wyoming resident and therefore is
constitutionally qualified to serve as George W. Bush's vice
president, a federal appeals court ruled Thursday.

The ruling came from the bench after an hour-long hearing in
which lawyers for three Texas residents argued that Cheney had
moved to Bush's home state of Texas when he took a job there in
1993.

The three-judge appellate panel took a short recess after the
arguments, then Judge Patrick Higginbotham returned to say
without elaboration that the panel was in agreement that Cheney
clearly is a Wyoming resident.

Higginbotham was appointed by former President Bush. The others –
Rhesa H. Barksdale and Jacques L. Wiener Jr. – were Reagan
appointees.

The three plaintiffs were prepared to appeal to the U.S. Supreme
Court if the appeals court sides with a lower court judge, one of
their lawyers said before the ruling.

Cheney, a former Wyoming congressman, lived in Dallas while he
was chairman of Halliburton Co. until he changed his voting
registration to Teton County, Wyo., on July 21 – four days before
becoming Bush's running mate.

He or his wife have owned a home in Dallas since 1993, but have
entered into a contract to sell the property, which was listed
for $3.1 million. Cheney, defense secretary under former
President Bush, also owns property in McLean, Va.

The plaintiffs are Dallas-area residents Stephen E. Jones, a
Texas Wesleyan University law student, and Linda D. Lydia and
Caroline Franco, both housewives.
