Bush and granted the Islamic charity the沃克第一次迅速作出工作安排的伊斯兰圣地基金会诉布什和给予的伊斯兰慈善机构 opportunity to file a motion arguing that it’s an “aggrieved party” under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act机会提交了一项动议,认为这是一个“受害方”的外国情报监视法 , a status that would allow Walker to use classified evidence of government spying to determine if illegal surveillance had occurred.一个地位,使沃克使用证据的分类政府从事间谍活动,以确定是否非法监视发生。 Al-Haramain’s lawyers say that the government, in the course of investigating the charity, accidentally turned over documents showing they had spied on the organization.哈拉曼的律师说,政府的过程中,调查的慈善机构,不小心把证件,以显示他们的间谍组织。 Walker has thus far precluded any use of the classified document, but FISA provides for the review and introduction of such evidence.沃克迄今已排除使用任何机密文件,但FISA规定,审查和采用这种证据。 Walker set a Sept. 23 deadline for Al-Haramain’s motion and the government’s motion to dismiss.沃克确定9月23日截止日期为哈拉曼的议案和政府的动议罢免。 But Walker wasn’t as brief or generous to the plaintiffs in the cases against telecom companies, which represent the other half of the consolidated wiretapping litigation.但是,沃克没有简短或慷慨原告在起诉电信公司,它们代表的另一半综合窃听诉讼。 Over the arguments of Electronic Frontier Foundation Legal Director Cindy Cohn, co-lead plaintiffs counsel, Walker denied a request to challenge the constitutionality of the recently passed amendments to FISA, which give telecoms retroactive immunity.以上论点的电子边疆基金会法律主任辛迪,共同导致原告的律师,沃克拒绝了要求挑战的合宪最近通过的修正案, FISA ,使电信追溯豁免权。 Walker decided the government should get a chance to argue, by Sept. 19, for the cases to be dismissed before a constitutional challenge is raised.沃克决定,政府应该有机会争辩说,由9月19日,为案件的被解雇之前,宪法面临的挑战是提出的问题。 “I do think we need first to see if the [FISA Amendments Act of 2008] applies to these cases, to let the government make its presentation in that regard … and then decide how the cases are to proceed, if at all,” he said. “我认为我们首先需要看看[ FISA法案的修正案2008年]适用于这些情况下,让政府作出自己的介绍在这方面... ,然后再决定如何案件着手,如, ”他说。 Walker also denied Cohn’s request to be given more discovery about the extent to which telecom companies helped the government monitor communications.沃克还否认了科恩的要求给予更多的发现对何种程度的电信公司帮助政府监控通信。 Lawyers for the government and the companies, in a joint case management statement, argued that “Congress did not intend to open the door to discovery” but rather “to provide a means to resolve these cases without compromising classified national security information.”律师为政府和企业,在一份联合声明中的案件管理,争辩说, “国会不打算打开大门发现” ,而是“提供一个手段来解决这些案件在不损害国家安全的机密信息。 ” Justice Department attorney Anthony Coppolino indicated that for both Al-Haramain and the telecom cases he would likely continue to introduce much of his evidence, which he has said is classified, under seal for in camera review.司法部的律师安东尼Coppolino指出,双方哈拉曼和电信情况下,他可能会继续推行他的大部分证据,他说是机密的,密封的相机审查。 Walker said he’d prefer to see less of that.沃克说,他希望看到少了这一点。 “The classified materials that I have viewed in connection with the state secrets issue … frankly have not been very helpful in resolving the issues that I have had to resolve,” he said. “这份机密材料,我认为与国家机密的问题坦率地...没有很大的帮助解决的问题,我已经解决, ”他说。 He told Coppolino that it “behooved” him to be sparing when he submits classified materials.他告诉Coppolino说,它“ behooved ”他是不遗余力,他提出机密材料。 Friday’s hearing was the first in the consolidated wiretapping cases to occur in the wake of President Bush’s signing of the FISA Amendments Act on July 10.今天的听证会是第一个在综合窃听案件发生后,布什总统签署的FISA法案的修正案于7月10日。 Outside court, Cohn said that the plaintiffs’ strategy going forward will be two-pronged: To argue that the government collected information in a broader fashion than was allowed under FISA and that the FISA Amendments Act is unconstitutional because it grants the executive branch power to usurp the judiciary.在法庭外,科恩说,原告的战略,未来将双管齐下:要争辩说,政府收集的信息在更广泛的方式比所允许的FISA ,而且FISA法案的修正案是违宪的,因为它赋予行政部门的权力篡夺司法机关。 Though the briefing schedule in the cases might be set, the outcomes, shrouded in new law, remain anything but clear.虽然通报的时间表的情况下可能会设置,结果,笼罩在新的法律,任何东西,但仍然明显。 “I cannot say that I have great familiarity with the statute,” Walker said of the FISA Amendments Act, “and indeed it’sa new statute and an unusual one providing for an unusual procedure.” “我不能说,我非常熟悉的章程, ”沃克说的FISA修正法案“ ,实际上这是新的章程和不同寻常提供一个不寻常的程序。 ” Have Your Say: Wiretap Cases a Go Despite FISA Change 你说:窃听的情况下,去改变,尽管FISA Please read our请仔细阅读我们的 posting guidelines before posting张贴在发布前的指导方针 . 。 Alternatively或者 you can discuss this report here你可以讨论这份报告在这里 . 。 Related News 相关新闻
