Arkansas court
decides to revoke
Clinton’s license
By James Jefferson
The Associated Press
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — Deliver
ing a post-impeachment rebuke,
an Arkansas Supreme Court com
mittee decided Monday that Pres
ident Clinton should be disbarred
for “serious misconduct” in the
Paula Jones case and began the
court proceeding to strip him of
his law license.
A majority of the panelists who
met on Friday said the president
should be disciplined for denying
a sexual relationship with Moni
ca Lewinsky during a deposition
he gave in the Jones sexual harass
ment case in January 1998.
The recommendation from the
Committee of Professional Con
duct now goes to a Circuit Court
judge in Little Rock for disbar
ment proceedings. If the judge
disbars Clinton, the president can
appeal to the state Supreme
Court.
Clinton attorney David Kendall
said in a statement: “This recom
mendation is wrong and clearly
contradicted by precedent. We
will vigorously dispute it in a
court of law.”
Clinton told NBC Nightly News
that he will not personally defend
himself at the disbarment pro
ceedings because it would inter
fere with his duties as president.
He also said the committee was
responding too harshly to his tes
timony that he has labeled as
“legally accurate.”
“The only reason I agreed even
to an appeal of this is, my lawyers
looked at all the precedents and
they said, ‘There’s no way in the
world if they just treat you like
everybody else has been treated,
that this is even close to that kind
of case,’ ”he said.
The action against Clinton’s li
cense marks the third form of
punishment the president has
faced for his false testimony in the
Jones case. He was impeached by
the House, then acquitted at a
Senate trial. And a federal judge
fined him after finding him in
contempt of court.
The president has insisted that
he did not lie when he denied
having a sexual relationship with
Lewinsky; he has said that the re
lationship did not meet the defi
nition of sex that was given at the
start of the deposition.
Clinton, who was Arkansas
governor from 1979 to 1981 and
again from 1983 until he was
elected president in 1992, has
been a lawyer for more than 25
years and taught at the University
of Arkansas law school. He has
not practiced since the early
1980s, between his first and sec
ond terms as governor.
“This action is being taken
against [Clinton] as a result of the
formal complaints ... and the
findings by a majority of the com
mittee that certain of the attor
ney’s conduct, as demonstrated in
the complaint, constituted serious
misconduct,” in violation of state
rules governing lawyers, the dis
ciplinary committee’s executive
director, James Neal, said in a let
ter to the court Monday.
The committee has 14 full-time
members — lawyers and non
lawyers — who sit in panels of
seven. Because of Clinton’s wide
spread connections throughout
the state, eight of the panelists
bowed out before Friday’s meet
ing, most of them citing potential
conflicts of interest.
Of the six who heard Clinton’s
case, five are lawyers and the
sixth is a retired schoolteacher. At
least two are Democrats; three
have not identified their affilia
tion because voters are not re
quired to do so in Arkansas.
Whether the sixth member has
identified a party affiliation could
not be determined.
The Southeastern Legal Foun
dation, a conservative law firm in
Atlanta, and U.S. District Judge
Susan Webber Wright, who
presided over the Jones case, had
filed the complaints against Clin
ton with the committee. The
foundation wanted Clinton dis
barred; Wright — who last year
cited Clinton for civil contempt
and fined him $90,000 for giving
“intentionally false” testimony —
did not suggest a specific penalty
from the committee.
Cancer treatment
looks encouraging
By Daniel Q. Haney
The Associated Press
NEW ORLEANS — A new ap
proach to fighting cancer that in
volves harnessing radioactive an
tibodies could turn out to be the
first effective treatment for an in
variably fatal form of lymphoma
that strikes about 20,000 Ameri
cans a year.
Doctors caution that it will take
several years to prove the treat
ment truly slows or cures the dis
ease, but early signs are promising.
The treatment is one of a new
generation of cancer therapies
that attempt to exploit the genetic
and biological peculiarities of ma
lignant cells to kill them while
sparing normal tissue.
In the latest study, released
Monday at a meeting of the Amer
ican Society of Clinical Oncology,
doctors tested an approach called
radioimmunotherapy against vic
tims of low-grade, or follicular,
lymphoma.
This slow-growing disease “of
ten responds to treatment at the
very beginning, but then patients
inevitably relapse and eventually
succumb,” said Dr. Mark S.
Kaminski of the University of
Michigan. “All sorts of things
have been tried, but to date, there
has been no convincing evidence
to show that any of those strate
gies resulted in a cure.”
The first glimpse of a possible
breakthrough came in the early
1990s, when doctors begem testing
radioactive antibodies against pa
tients who had already failed all
of the standard chemotherapy
drugs. About 70 percent of these
patients responded to the treat
ment, and in about 30 percent all
visible signs of the cancer went
away, at least temporarily.
In the latest study, doctors tried
the same approach as front-line
therapy — offering it as the only
medicine — and it showed im
pressive power.
