The subcommittee met, pursuant to call, at 10:07 a.m., in room 2226, Rayburn House Office Building, Hon. Robert W. Kastenmeier (chairman of the subcommittee) presiding. Present: Representatives Kastenmeier, Schroeder, Railsback, and Sawyer. Staff present: David Beier, Thomas E. Mooney, associate counsel; and Audrey Marcus, clerk. Mr. KASTENMEIER. The committee will come to order. This morning the Subcommittee on Courts, Civil Liberties, and the Administration of Justice is holding a hearing on three bills that are of substantial interest to the Federal judiciary and mem­ bers of the bar. Fortunately, these three bills are not fraught with the type of controversy that surrounds some of the other court- related legislation that is currently before the subcommittee. It is my hope that if after hearing from our distinguished wit­ nesses there is a consensus for supporting these bills, we can pro­ ceed to mark up in the very near future. Before we begin the hearing this morning, let me take this moment to review the issues presented by these bills. The most sig­ nificant bill before us today is H.R. 2406. This bill would alter the mandatory appellate jurisdiction of the Supreme Court. In many senses, this bill represents a logical culmination of reforms begun by the subcommittee in a previous Congress when we virtually eliminated the use of three-judge courts and thereby many direct mandatory appeals to the Supreme Court. [Copies of H.R. 2406, H.R. 4395, and H.R. 4396 follow:] (l) 97TH CONGRESS 1ST SESSION H. R. 2406 To improve the administration of justice by providing greater discretion to the Supreme Court in selecting the cases it will review and for other purposes. IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES MARCH 10, 1981 Mr. KASTENMEIEB introduced the following bill; which was referred to the Committee on the Judiciary A BILL To improve the administration of justice by providing greater discretion to the Supreme Court in selecting the cases it will review and for other purposes. 1 Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representa- 2 tives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, 3 SECTION 1.

Brands Dagmar Hamilton Mark Lawrence Michael Stoff Watchmen in the Night: The House Judiciary Committee’s Impeachment Inquiry of Richard Nixon by Benjamin Jonah Koch, B.A.; M.A. Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Texas at Austin May 2011 Dedication To my grandparents For their love and support Acknowledgements I owe an immense debt of gratitude to my dissertation supervisor, David Oshinsky. When I arrived in graduate school, I did not know what it meant to be a historian and a writer. Working with him, especially in the development of this manuscript, I have come to understand my strengths and weaknesses, and he has made me a better historian. Thank you. The members of my dissertation committee have each aided me in different ways. Michael Stoff’s introductory historiography seminar helped me realize exactly what I had gotten myself into my first year of graduate school—and made it painless. I always enjoyed Mark Lawrence’s classes and his teaching style, and he was extraordinarily supportive during the writing of my master’s thesis, as well as my qualifying exams. I workshopped the first two chapters of my dissertation in Bill Brands’s writing seminar, where I learned precisely what to do and not to do.
