DAVEY,   ClerkCivil  Action  No.   74-0186ORDERThis  action  is  before  the  Court  on  the  plaintiff's  motionsfor  an  order  to  show  cause  why  Harvey  Brinson  should  not  be  heldin  contempt  of  court  and  for  an  order  to  place  such  pleadingsunder  seal.    According  to  the  plaintiff,  Harvey  Brinson  haschanged  his  story.    At  earlier  proceedings  he  asserted  thathe  never  had  sexual  relations  with  the plaintiff .    At  a  recentdeposition  he  indicated  that  such  relations  did  indeed  occur.The  Court  finds  that  any  inconsistencies  in  the  testimony  ofMr.   Brinson  can  be  brought  out  at  trial  through  cross-examination.It  would  be  inappropriate  to  hold  this  witness  in  ccntempt  ofCourt.     Accordingly,   it  is,  by  the  Court,  this day  of  May,1979,ORDERED,   that  the  motion  of  the  plaintiff  for  an  orderto  show  cause  why  Hbrvey  Brinson  should  not  be  held  in  contemptof  court  be,   and  the  same  hereby  is,   denied,   and  it  isFURTHER  0RI)ERED,   that  the  motion  of  the  plaintiff  toplace  motions  and  exhibits  under  seal  be, and  the  same  hereby  is,denied.Charles  R.
