Conservative Legal Activist Rejects Senate Subpoena in Supreme Court Ethics Investigation
- Leonard Leo, conservative legal activist, rejects Senate subpoena related to probe of gifts to Supreme Court justices
- Subpoena issued by Senate Judiciary Committee Democrats as part of investigation into lavish gifts
- Leo played central role in ethical crisis plaguing Supreme Court, refused to cooperate with committee
- Republicans claim subpoenas invalid due to procedural matter, told recipients to ignore them
- With Democrat's slim Senate majority, unlikely they can enforce subpoena if Leo does not comply
