Lawyers for former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld are asking a federal judge in South Carolina to throw out a lawsuit filed by former enemy combatant Jose Padilla, who was subjected to harsh interrogation tactics in a military prison.

A hearing is set for Monday morning before US District Judge Richard Gergel in Charleston, S.C.

The suit charges Mr. Rumsfeld and other Defense Department officials with violating Mr. Padilla’s civil and constitutional rights.
