Congress Backs Away From Biller
Yesterday I asked our Best and Brightest if congress should hear testimony from former Toyota lawyer Dimitrios Biller. The lack of unqualified endorsements mirrored my own skepticism about the testimony of a guy who has sued Toyota several times, and today it seems that congress may just agree. When the House Oversight Committee wrote Toyota’s Yoshimi Inaba asking for a response to Biller’s accusations, it attached several of Biller’s apparently damning documents to its letter [ PDF of original letter and attached Biller documents here]. But, as the Detroit News reports, the letter has been reposted without the attached Biller documents after Toyota claimed they violated attorney-client privilege (the alleged internal memos all have non-disclosure requests attached). Senate hearings on the Toyota recall have just started, and are available at Cspan.org.

Where is the part of the article where Congress backs away from Biller? It seems to me that the documents, that are currently sealed by court order, shouldn't have been posted anyway. But where is Congress backing away from Biller?
Ed, your link "PDF of letter..." links to the Inaba presentation from 2009 (wasn't Biller well out of TMC by then?) ... and no letter... Re. the reposted letter from Townes to Toyoda, answers are due Mar 12th ... I expect to see fireworks again... (esp. regarding the Electronic Knowledge Books.)
