Charging Corruption, House Impeaches Federal JudgeThe U.S. House of Representatives voted Thursday to adopt four articles of impeachment against Eastern District of Louisiana Judge G. Thomas Porteous Jr., wrapping up a wide-ranging investigation into allegations that Porteous took cash and gifts from lawyers and lied in his own bankruptcy case. The stage is set for a trial in the Senate unless Porteous resigns from his seat. He has so far declined to do so, despite high-profile investigations by the House, the 5th Circuit Judicial Council and the Department of Justice. Article published by Law.Com Archive |
