Fitzmas update 3/10/06

Judge Reggie Walton has issued a ruling that Libby's defense team get redacted versions of PDB's (or "topic overviews" thereof) that the Vice President's office received from the CIA, plus a "topic index of any inquiries reflecting additional information the defendant requested during his morning intelligence briefing" - delimited to dates specified by the judge. See report from AP (at Houston Chron) and analysis from Steve Soto and Tom Maguire (who has links to pdf copies of Judge Walton's opinion, the order to the government of what precisely it must deliver to the defense, plus a copy of Fitzgerald's filing on ExParte Submissions).
