WASHINGTON (CNN) -- An attorney for former
White House intern Monica Lewinsky said Monday he
has been contacted by the office of Independent
Counsel Robert Ray, asking that Lewinsky meet with
Ray in the coming weeks.

Ray is investigating whether President Clinton should
face criminal charges after he leaves office in January
for allegedly lying to a grand jury about his relationship
with Lewinsky.

Ray, who
succeeded Ken
Starr as
independent
counsel in the
case, convened a
new grand jury in
recent months,
which would be
expected to hear
testimony from
Lewinsky if she
becomes a formal
witness.

Attorney Plato Cacheris told CNN's Judy Woodruff he
is "negotiating" a date with the independent counsel's
office for Lewinsky to come in for a meeting.

On Friday, Ray's deputy, Keith Ausbrook, told CNN
that the Office of Independent Counsel is taking all the
normal steps in an investigation of this sort, with an eye
toward resolving the matter after the president leaves
office.

Informed sources tell CNN's Woodruff that Ray's office
has started contacting potential witnesses to appear
before a sitting grand jury. Sources say any witness list
would certainly include Lewinsky herself.

Ray has told CNN in the past that a decision whether to
prosecute Clinton for his conduct in the Lewinsky
scandal would come "very shortly" after the president's
term ends Jan. 20. The legal questions are whether
Clinton committed perjury or obstructed justice when he
denied having an affair with Lewinsky in sworn
testimony in the Paula Jones case.

Clinton was impeached by the House of Representatives
and acquitted by the Senate, which fell 12 votes short of
convicting him on a perjury charge and 17 votes short
of conviction on a charge of obstructing justice.
