In practice, I think the Washington, D.C. doctor, Elizabeth X, the woman who refused to say where her children were, was held for about 2 years, and that this was the all-time record for a contempt case. She was ultimately released when the court concluded she had no intention of cooperating.
Exactly! It is ENTIRELY up to the individual judge who issued the contempt citation. If they are pissed enough 2 years will be nothing. As far as I have been able to find there are NO statutes, other than that of a statute of limitation for a particular type of crime, that limit how long you can sit in jail on contempt.
One correction. She was released by a special law passed by the house of representatives after a media blitz about her case. The law only let her go and did not generally limit the period of time people could be held in contempt. It was not the judge, but a legislature trying to quell some outcry without doing any real reform

You quoted my post, and I have usually been one to take the extra time to change "cypherpunks@toad.com" to either "cypherpunks@algebra.com" or "cypherpunks@cyberpass.net". Sorry that I did not in this particular case. All three addresses will work, though it is unknown how long the toad.com version will continue to work...I assume we'll get some warning if John decides to stop sending the messages on. There is also an "ssz.net" address that may also work, which Jim Choate uses (and runs). --Tim May There's something wrong when I'm a felon under an increasing number of laws.

Cypherpunks@toad.com still forwards the list to cypherpunks@algebra.com and cypherpunks@cyberpass.net and probably other locations. So you can send postings to cypherpunks@toad.com and they'll forward on to the lists. # Thanks; Bill # Bill Stewart, +1-415-442-2215 stewarts@ix.netcom.com # You can get PGP outside the US at ftp.ox.ac.uk/pub/crypto/pgp # (If this is a mailing list or news, please Cc: me on replies.
