Federal Judge Grover M. Moscowitz of Brooklyn will appeal to the Judiciary Committee of the House of Representatives for the right to appear before that body and defend himself against the charges of misconduct filed against him by Sidney and Joseph Levine through Representative Andrew L. Somers. He also will ask permission to reply to the charges made by J. C. Rochester.
No reply to the charges against him will be made in advance of his appearance before the Judiciary Committee, the Judge indicated.
The charges against Judge Moscowitz and Judge Winslow, in the Southern New York District, now under investigation by the House Judiciary Committee, follow an inquiry into the bankruptcy situation in New York.
