Watkins v. United States, 354 US 178 (1957)

The Court favored Watkins, determining that Congress was not unlimited and was not given authority to inquire into private and personal affairs. In the case concerned, Watkins was not given time to determine whether the questions asked of him could be refused. See the related link for the case citation.
