Showdown in NSA Wiretap Case: Judge Threatens Sanctions Against Justice Department
David Kravets, Wired.com: "The Obama administration has until Friday to convince a federal judge not to levy sanctions against the government for 'failing to obey the court's orders' in a key NSA wiretapping lawsuit. US District Judge Vaughn Walker is threatening to summarily decide the 3-year-old lawsuit in favor of the plaintiffs, and award unspecified monetary damages to two American lawyers who claim their telephone calls were illegally intercepted by the NSA under the Bush administration. The lawyer represented a now-defunct Saudi charity that the Treasury Department claimed was linked to terrorism."
