A Political and Constitutional Review of United States V. NixonWilliam W. Van AlstyneWilliam & Mary Law School December 9, 1974 UCLA Law Review, Vol. 22, No. 1, 1974 William & Mary Law School Legal Studies Research Paper No. 09-189 Abstract: This comparison of United States v. Nixon and the Pentagon Papers case finds the greatest similarity and significance shared by the two cases was the anti-climactic nature of their conclusions. While both cases concerned constitutional questions of the highest order, centered around the scope of the executive power, both cases were drawn on such narrow grounds that there was hardly any effect on constitutional law doctrine.
