"The moving finger writes and having writ moves on." In re: Hillary- Saturday May 17 7:13 PM EDT Hillary May Face Whitewater Indictment-ABC WASHINGTON (Reuter) - First lady Hillary Rodham Clinton could face indictment on the Whitewater land deal, ABC News reported Saturday, quoting an audiotape of testimony by a deputy to independent counsel Kenneth Starr. ABC said it had obtained an audiotape of remarks by deputy independent counsel John Bates during a closed-door appeals court proceeding earlier this year. "We certainly are investigating individuals, and those individuals, including Mrs. Clinton, could be indicted," Bates told the proceeding, according to ABC. The appeals court ordered the White House to turn over notes on conversations between Mrs. Clinton and White House lawyers, but the White House on Monday told the Supreme Court that it should not be forced to turn over the notes. A White House spokeswoman declined to comment on the ABC report. Lawyers representing the office of the presidency asked the justices Monday to overturn a U.S. appeals court ruling that the attorney-client privilege does not apply to the notes subpoenaed by Starr. President Clinton and his wife have not been accused of any wrongdoing in Starr's long-running investigation into the Whitewater affair, a complex web of Arkansas business deals involving the Clintons and allegations of cover-up. The Supreme Court is expected to decide by the end of next month whether to grant or deny the appeal. If the appeal is granted, arguments would be scheduled during the court term that begins in October. The White House asserted in the appeal that the longstanding legal doctrine of attorney-client privilege applied to the conversations that Mrs. Clinton had with a team of government and private lawyers. The privilege has been recognized as protecting conversations between attorneys and their clients from disclosure on the grounds such discussion require confidentiality. But Starr has said White House lawyers, as government employees rather than the Clintons' personal lawyers, were "duty-bound" to turn over the disputed notes. He also said the unprecedented claims of privilege by the White House had delayed his investigation for months. Copyright 1997 Reuters --------------------------------
