DENVER (AP) - The Office of the Vice President has filed a motion seeking to block the release of videotaped depositions given by aides to Dick Cheney.
The motion comes in a lawsuit filed by Steven Howards, who claims he was wrongfully arrested after making comments to Cheney about the Iraq war in June 2006, when Cheney attended a conference in Beaver Creek.
The Office of the Vice President says the release could embarrass the aides who were deposed, with clips ending up online. The office says transcripts already have been released.
It says if videos are released, the aides' faces should be blocked out.
Howards' attorney David Lane has indicated he wants to release the videos to media outlets including The Associated Press.
