Court holds off on contempt charges until next year

A federal appeals court on Monday punted a decision about whether two of President Bush’s top aides must testify before a congressional committee until next year — and the next administration.
The delay is a setback for House Democrats who held White House Chief of Staff Joshua Bolten and former White House counsel Harriet Miers in contempt of Congress for failing to respond to subpoenas for information about the firings of nine U.S. attorneys in 2006. Democrats were trying to find out if politics played an improper role in their removal.

Democrats then filed suit to enforce the contempt charges, but time will run out on this year’s congressional session before the constitutional showdown between the executive and legislative branches will be resolved.
