U. Va. Fights Cuccinelli's Subpoena of Climate Scientist's E-Mail

"RICHMOND -- Virginia's flagship university went to court Thursday to fight an effort by Virginia Attorney Gen. Ken Cuccinelli II (R) to get documents from a former climate scientist at the school, an unusual confrontation that will test the bounds of academic freedom and result in the college facing down its own lawyer in court."

Rosalind S. Helderman reports for the Washington Post May 28, 2010.
