In Re Grand Jury Investigation No.

83-2-35 723 F.2d 477 (6th Cir. 1983)

Facts

Richard Durant (D), attorney at law, refused to give the identity of his client to the grand jury. This resulted from the desire of the FBI to uncover a number of stolen checks from IBM. One of which was paid to D's law firm for services rendered ($15,000). D was convicted of contempt and appealed.
