RIADY PLEA AGREEMENT HELD OVER UNTIL
     BUSH-CHENEY ADMINISTRATION

Judicial Watch Intervenes to Block It

(Washington, DC) Today, Judicial Watch, Inc., through its counsel
in San Marino, California, Sterling “Ernie” Norris, Chief of the
Judicial Watch Monitoring Project, and Larry Klayman, Chairman
and General Counsel, appeared in the U.S. District Court for the
Central District of California and presented a Motion to
Intervene seeking to block the “sweetheart” plea agreement of
James Riady and the Lippo Group, who, along with John Huang, are
suspected as being Chinese Communist agents. The text of Judicial
Watch’s Motion can be found at www.judicialwatch.org.

After hearing Riady’s and Lippo’s plea, Magistrate Judge Stephen
Hillman assigned the case to U.S. District Court Judge Ronald
Lew, a Reagan appointee. Since Judge Lew was not available due to
recent surgery, he could not consider Mr. Riady’s and the Lippo
Group’s plea at this time. Instead, it will be set over to
another date, after the Justice Department changes hand to a
Bush-Cheney Administration. Judge Lew will then consider Judicial
Watch’s motion to block the plea agreement.

Both Mr. Klayman and Mr. Norris were in the courtroom standing
within inches of James Riady. He appeared calm and without a care
in the world. Contrary to the other criminal defendants, his case
was given priority, and he was not forced to wear an orange
jumpsuit.

“Money again buys influence in the Clinton-Gore Administration;
but Judicial Watch is determined to make sure that Mr. Riady, the
Lippo Group and the politicians they funded, ultimately pay the
price for the serious crimes they have committed against the
American people and its system of justice,” stated Judicial Watch
Chairman and General Counsel Larry Klayman.
