LAS VEGAS (AP) - A federal judge has dismissed Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton from a lawsuit that accused her of conspiring with political advisers to discredit Gennifer Flowers after Flowers said she had an affair with Bill Clinton.
U.S. District Judge Philip Pro ruled in late November that the conspiracy claim against the former first lady was barred by Nevada's four-year statute of limitations, the Las Vegas Review-Journal reported Saturday.
According to the Web site for Judicial Watch, the public interest group that represents Flowers, the organization plans to appeal.
"In the meantime, Ms. Flowers looks forward to getting her day in court against Hillary's coconspirators in the smear campaign against her - George Stephanopoulos and James Carville," Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton said in a statement.
