Barry Roth's Litigation Files

Series

This series contains Barry Roth's copies of court opinions, motions, and briefs for a wide variety of lawsuits involving the nation, President Gerald R. Ford, or other high administration officials. The staff of the Counsel's Office referred such cases to the Justice Department for handling, but monitored the progress of the cases to determine their potential impact. Many cases in this series touch in some way on the papers of President Richard Nixon. Although a few have the Nixon papers as their central focus (e.g. Nixon v. Sampson), many cases focused on other topics but became tied up with the handling of the Nixon papers when attorneys requested access to documents from the Nixon White House. Another important case is Schmalzried v. Ford, which involved allegations of sex discrimination against the Ford White House by Darlene Schmalzried, a former editor of the President's News Summary.
