The distinguished Senator from Utah has stated if Billy Dale, who has been indicted and now we are about to pay his attorney's fees-- if there is an indictment by the special counsel, by Kenneth Starr, or any other special counsel, if that indictment ever comes forth, then the attorney's fees are not automatically paid, they are not reimbursed if there is an indictment by the special counsel.
