Climes

Ex-Enron Corp. CEO Jeffrey Skilling will remain in the warmer climes of Houston — at least for the time being. Skilling was to report to a minimum security Minnesota prison on Tuesday to begin serving his 24-year sentence, but the U.S. Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals is considering his request to remain free while he appeals his convictions on 19 criminal counts (see Daily GPI, Oct. 13).
