Summary
Impeaches Alcee L. Hastings, a judge of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida, for high crimes and misdemeanors. Enumerates the articles of impeachment relating to: (1) a corrupt relationship with William Borders of Washington, D.C.; (2) repeated false testimony under oath at his criminal trial; (3) fabrication of false documents which were submitted as evidence in his criminal trial; and (4) improper disclosure of confidential information acquired by him as supervisory judge of a wiretap.

States that Judge Hastings is guilty of an impeachable offense warranting removal from office.
