        Washington (AP) – A former Clinton White House counsel
        suggested Sunday that conservative Justice Antonin Scalia
        may want to recuse himself from the Florida recount case
        because his son works for a firm that represents George
        W. Bush. Eugene Scalia is a partner in the Washington
        office of Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher. Ted Olson, also a
        partner there, will represent Bush for a second time in
        oral arguments on Monday, when the Supreme Court
        considers whether to allow hand counting of ballots in
        Florida to resume.

        "Under that circumstance, Justice Scalia at the very
        least should disclose the relationship, the presence of
        his son in Ted Olson’s law firm, and explain why recusal,
        at least for appearances’ sake, isn’t desirable," said
        Lanny Davis, former special counsel to President Clinton.

        Eugene Scalia said Sunday he is not working on the Bush
        case.

        Court spokeswoman Kathy Arberg said the court would have
        no comment on the matter. Scalia did not recuse himself
        the first time Olson argued this case, so it seemed
        unlikely he would do so this time.

        On Saturday, Scalia joined in the 5-4 majority in
        temporarily halting hand counting of ballots in Florida,
        as ordered by the Florida Supreme Court. And he issued
        his own opinion explaining in stronger terms why he
        believes Bush is likely to win his case after it is heard
        Monday.

        In September, Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist, whose
        lawyer son is helping defend Microsoft against private
        antitrust lawsuits, participated in a key Supreme Court
        vote in a Microsoft antitrust case. He explained in
        writing that he had reviewed the law and concluded there
        was no conflict of interest.

        Federal law says judges should disqualify themselves from
        cases in which their child is known to have "an interest
        that could be substantially affected by the outcome of
        the proceeding."

    The Associated Press
    Sunday, December 10, 2000
    Washington (AP) – A former Clinton White House counsel
    suggested Sunday that conservative Justice Antonin Scalia
    may want to recuse himself from the Florida recount case
    because his son works for a firm that represents George
    W. Bush. Eugene Scalia is a partner in the Washington
    office of Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher. Ted Olson, also a
    partner there, will represent Bush for a second time in
    oral arguments on Monday, when the Supreme Court
    considers whether to allow hand counting of ballots in
    Florida to resume.
    "Under that circumstance, Justice Scalia at the very
    least should disclose the relationship, the presence of
    his son in Ted Olson’s law firm, and explain why recusal,
    at least for appearances’ sake, isn’t desirable," said
    Lanny Davis, former special counsel to President Clinton.
    Eugene Scalia said Sunday he is not working on the Bush
    case.
    Court spokeswoman Kathy Arberg said the court would have
    no comment on the matter. Scalia did not recuse himself
    the first time Olson argued this case, so it seemed
    unlikely he would do so this time.
    On Saturday, Scalia joined in the 5-4 majority in
    temporarily halting hand counting of ballots in Florida,
    as ordered by the Florida Supreme Court. And he issued
    his own opinion explaining in stronger terms why he
    believes Bush is likely to win his case after it is heard
    Monday.
    In September, Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist, whose
    lawyer son is helping defend Microsoft against private
