|
Senior U.S. District Court Judge who affirmed the bankruptcy court's findings in the INSLAW case, ruling DOJ performed its contract in a hostile environment. |
William Bryant, Jr. was a Senior United States District Court Judge. He affirmed the bankruptcy court's findings in November 1989, in a separate opinion of almost 50 pages, following a de novo trial in the INSLAW case. His ruling stated that "There was unending contention about payments under this contract and the rights of the respective parties – what is strikingly apparent from the testimony and depositions of key witnesses and many documents is that INSLAW performed its contract in a hostile environment that extended from the higher echelons of the Department of Justice to the officials who had the day-to-day responsibility for supervising its work."1
