Former FBI lawyer Lisa Page may find herself in contempt after not appearing Wednesday on Capitol Hill, despite a concerted effort by her attorney to explain her no-show.
House Judiciary Committee Chairman Bob Goodlatte, R-Va., and House Oversight Committee Chairman Trey Gowdy, R-S.C. said in a Wednesday afternoon letter to Page’s attorney Amy Jeffress that her client could be held in contempt as early as Friday morning.
Page can either appear Thursday at a scheduled public hearing along FBI agent Peter Strzok, or "present herself for a deposition on Friday, July 13, 2018, at 10:00 a.m."
"This option would stay contempt proceedings and resolve the Committees’ need to depose your client," the lawmakers wrote. Page could also appear both Thursday publicly and Friday privately, if she so chooses.
