U.S. Senate's Grassley sets Kavanaugh's accuser Saturday deadline for testimony terms: NY Times

(Reuters) - U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley set a 2:30 p.m. EST Saturday deadline for a woman accusing Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of sexual assault to negotiate terms of her testimony, the New York Times reported.

The Committee delayed a vote on Kavanaugh's confirmation after California professor Christine Blasey Ford's allegations emerged last week. Since then, her lawyers and committee staff have been negotiating the conditions of her testimony.
