Two More Clinton Appointees Decline to Hear Disbarment Case
Fox News-Monday, July 3, 2000
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — Two more judges said Monday they would not
hear the lawsuit seeking President Clinton's disbarment,
increasing the chance the case could fall to a recent appointee
of Republican Gov. Mike Huckabee, who has harshly criticized the
president's sexual misconduct.
A total of three judges appointed by Clinton when he was Arkansas
governor have now declined to hear a state Supreme Court
committee's lawsuit to strip the president of his license to
practice law. The three judges all said they acted to avoid the
appearance of partiality.
Of the four remaining circuit judges for Pulaski County, two hear
civil cases — Judge Chris Piazza, who was assigned the case
Monday, and Judge Leon Johnson.
Piazza, a Democrat and former local prosecutor, won election to
the bench in the early 1990s. Johnson was appointed by Huckabee
on June 2 to fill a vacancy through December.
Piazza was out of his office on vacation Monday and could not be
located for comment.
The lawsuit alleges that deceptive answers Clinton gave under
oath in the Paula Jones sexual harassment case about his
relationship with Monica Lewinsky made him unfit to be a lawyer.
The president's lawyer, David Kendall, has said Clinton will
fight the case vigorously.
Huckabee has been reserved through a string of Clinton
controversies, but the Baptist preacher reacted with indignation
when Clinton admitted to an affair with the former White House
intern.
"Either Bill Clinton lives under different rules than the rest of
us, or America has a different set of values than when it reacted
to Wilbur Mills, Bob Packwood, Gary Hart, Jim Bakker, Jimmy
Swaggart and others," Huckabee said at the time.
Huckabee spokesman Rex Nelson said the governor did not have
Clinton or politics in mind when he appointed Johnson.
It is unlikely the case will be resolved before Clinton leaves
office Jan. 20.
