2517.  Authorization for disclosure and use of intercepted wire,
oral, or electronic communications

(1) Any investigative or law enforcement officer who, by any
means authorized by this chapter, has obtained knowledge of the
contents of any wire, oral, or electronic communication, or
evidence derived therefrom, may disclose such contents to another
investigative or law enforcement officer to the extent that such
disclosure is appropriate to the proper performance of the
official duties of the officer making or receiving the

under the authority of the United States or of any State or
political subdivision thereof.

(4) No otherwise privileged wire, oral, or electronic
communication intercepted in accordance with, or in violation of,
the provisions of this chapter shall lose its privileged
character.

(5) When an investigative or law enforcement officer, while

Such application shall be made as soon as practicable.


2518.  Procedure for interception of wire, oral, or electronic
communications

(1) Each application for an order authorizing or approving the
interception of a wire, oral, or electronic communication under
this chapter shall be made in writing upon oath or affirmation to
a judge of competent jurisdiction and shall state the applicant's
authority to make such application.  Each application shall
include the following information:

(a) the identity of the investigative or law enforcement officer
making the application, and the officer authorizing the
application;

(b) a full and complete statement of the facts and circumstances
relied upon by the applicant, to justify his belief that an order
should be issued, including (i) details as to the particular
offense that has been, is being, or is about to be committed,
(ii) except as provided in subsection (11), a particular
description of the nature and location of the facilities from
which or the place where the communication is to be intercepted,
(iii) a particular description of the type of communications
sought to be intercepted, (iv) the identity of the person, if
known, committing the offense and whose communications are to be
intercepted;

(c) a full and complete statement as to whether or not other
investigative procedures have been tried and failed or why they
reasonably appear to be unlikely to succeed if tried or to be too
dangerous;

(d) a statement of the period of time for which the interception
is required to be maintained.  If the nature of the investigation
is such that the authorization for interception should not
automatically terminate when the described type of communication
has been first obtained, a particular description of facts
establishing probable cause to believe that additional
communications of the same type will occur thereafter;

(e) a full and complete statement of the facts concerning all
previous applications known to the individual authorizing and
making the application, made to any judge for authorization to
intercept, or for approval of interceptions of, wire, oral, or
electronic communications involving any of the same persons,
facilities or places specified in the application, and the action
taken by the judge on each such application; and

(f) where the application is for the extension of an order, a
statement setting forth the results thus far obtained from the
interception, or a reasonable explanation of the failure to
obtain such results.

(2) The judge may require the applicant to furnish additional
testimony or documentary evidence in support of the application.

(3) Upon such application the judge may enter an ex parte order,
as requested or as modified, authorizing or approving
interception of wire, oral, or electronic communications within
the territorial jurisdiction of the court in which the judge is
sitting (and outside that jurisdiction but within the United
States in the case of a mobile interception device authorized by
a Federal court within such jurisdiction), if the judge
determines on the basis of the facts submitted by the applicant
that --

(a) there is probable cause for belief that an individual is
committing, has committed, or is about to commit a particular
offense enumerated in section 2516 of this t chapter;

(b) there is probable cause for brief that particular
communications concerning that offense will be obtained through
such interception;

(c) normal investigative procedures have been tried and have
failed or reasonably appear to be unlikely to succeed if tried or
to be too dangerous;

(d) except as provided in subsection (11), there is probable
cause for belief that the facilities from which, or the place
where the wire, oral, or electronic communications are to be
intercepted are being used, or are about to be used, in
connection with the commission of such offense, or are leased to,
listed in the name of, or commonly used by such person.

(4) Each order authorizing or approving the interception of any
wire, oral, or electronic communication under this chapter shall
specify --

(a) the identity of the person, if known, whose communications
are to be intercepted;

(b) the nature and location of the communications facilities as
to which, or the place where, authority to intercept is granted;

(c) a particular description of the type of communication sought
to be intercepted, and a statement of the particular offense to
which it relates;


(d) the identity of the agency authorized to intercept the
communications, and of the person authorizing the application;
and

(e) the period of time during which such interception is
authorized, including a statement as to whether or not the
interception shall automatically terminate when the described
communication has been first obtained.

An order authorizing the interception of a wire, oral, or
electronic communication under this chapter shall, upon request
of the applicant, direct that a provider of wire or electronic
communication service, landlord, custodian or other person shall
furnish the applicant forthwith all information, facilities, and
technical assistance necessary to accomplish the interception
unobtrusively and with a minimum of interference with the
services that such service provider, landlord, custodian, or
person is according the person whose communications are to be
intercepted.  Any provider of wire or electronic communication
service, landlord, custodian or other person furnishing such
facilities or technical assistance shall be compensated therefor
by the applicant for reasonable expenses incurred in providing
such facilities or assistance.

/* If for any horrible reason a BBS is ever commanded to allow an
electronic tapping of a user to take place, the agency who wishes
to tap must pay the expenses of the tap. */

(5) No order entered under this section may authorize or approve
the interception of any wire, oral, or electronic communication
for any period longer than is necessary to achieve the objective
of the authorization nor in any event longer than thirty days.
Such thirty-day period begins on the earlier of the day on which
the investigative or law enforcement officer first begins to
conduct an interception under the order or ten days after the
order is entered.  Extensions of an order may be granted, but
only upon application for an extension made in accordance with
subsection (1) of this section and the court making the findings
required by subsection (3) of this section.  The period of
extension shall be no longer than the authorizing judge deems
necessary to achieve the purposes for which it was granted and in
no event for longer than thirty days.  Every order and extension
thereof shall contain a provision that the authorization to
intercept shall be executed as soon as practicable, shall be
conducted in such a way as to minimize the interception of
communications not otherwise subject to interception under this
chapter, and must terminate upon attainment of the authorized
objective, or in any event in thirty days.  In the event the
intercepted communication is in a code or foreign language, and
an expert in that foreign language or code is not reasonably
available during the interception period, minimization may be
accomplished as soon as practicable after such interception.  An
interception under this chapter may be conducted in whole or in
part by Government personnel, or by an individual operating under
a contract with the Government, acting under the supervision of
an investigative or law enforcement officer authorized to conduct
the interception.

(6)  Whenever an order authorizing interception is entered
pursuant to this chapter, the order may require reports to be
made to the judge who issued the order showing what progress has
been made toward achievement of the authorized objective and the
need for continued interception.  Such reports shall be made at
such intervals as the judge may require.

(7) Notwithstanding any other provision of this chapter, any
investigative or law enforcement officer, specially designated by
the Attorney General, the Deputy Attorney General, the Associate
Attorney General or by the principal prosecuting attorney of any
State or subdivision thereof acting pursuant to a statute of that
State, who reasonably determines that --


(a) an emergency situation exists that involves --

(i) immediate danger of death or serious physical injury to any
person;

(ii) conspiratorial activities threatening the national security
interest; or

(iii) conspiratorial activities characteristic of organized crime,
that requires a wire, oral, or electronic communication to be
intercepted before an order authorizing such interception can,
with due diligence, be obtained, and

(b) there are grounds upon which an order could be entered under
this chapter to authorize such interception, may intercept such
wire, oral, or electronic communication if an application for an
order approving the interception is made in accordance with this
section within forty-eight hours after the interception has
occurred, or begins to occur.  In the absence of an order, such
interception shall immediately terminate when the communication
sought is obtained or when the application for the order is
denied, whichever is earlier.  In the event such application for
approval is denied, or in any other case where the interception
is terminated without an order having been issued, the contents
of any wire, oral, or electronic communication intercepted shall
be treated as having been obtained in violation of this chapter,
and an inventory shall be served as provided for in subsection
(d) of this section on the person named in the application.

(8) (a) The contents of any wire, oral, or electronic
communication intercepted by any means authorized by this chapter
shall, if possible, be recorded on tape or wire or other
comparable device.  The recording of the contents of any wire,
oral, or electronic communication under this subsection shall be
done in such way as will protect the recording from editing or
other alterations.  Immediately upon the expiration of the period
of the order, or extensions thereof, such recordings shall be
made available to the judge issuing such order and sealed under
his directions.  Custody of the recordings shall be wherever the
judge orders.  They shall not be destroyed except upon an order
of the issuing or denying judge and in any event shall be kept
for ten years.  Duplicate recordings may be made for use or
disclosure pursuant to the provisions of subsections (1) and (2)
of section 2517 of this chapter for investigations.  The presence
of the seal provided for by this subsection, or a satisfactory
explanation for the absence thereof, shall be a prerequisite for
the use or disclosure of the contents of any wire, oral, or
electronic communication or evidence derived therefrom under
subsection (3) of section 2517.

(b) Applications made and orders granted under this chapter shall
be sealed by the judge.  Custody of the applications and orders
shall be wherever the judge directs.  Such applications and
orders shall be disclosed only upon a showing of good cause
before a judge of competent jurisdiction and shall not be
destroyed except on order of the issuing or denying judge, and in
any event shall be kept for ten years.

(c) Any violation of the provisions of this subsection may be
punished as contempt of the issuing or denying judge.

(d) Within a reasonable time but not later than ninety days after
the filing of an application for an order of approval under
section 2518(7)(b) which is denied or the termination of the
period of an order or extensions thereof, the issuing or denying
judge shall cause to be served, on the persons named in the order
or the application, and such other parties to intercepted
communications as the judge may determine in his discretion that
is in the interest of justice, and inventory which shall include
notice of --

(1) the fact of the entry of the order or the application;

(2) the date of the entry and the period of authorized, approved
or disapproved interception, or the denial of the application;
and

(3) the fact that during the period wire, oral, or electronic
communications were or were not intercepted. The judge, upon the
filing of a motion, may in his discretion make available to such
person or his counsel for inspection such portions of the
intercepted communications, applications and orders as the judge
determines to be in the interest of justice.  On an ex parte
showing of good cause to a judge of competent jurisdiction the
serving of the inventory required by this subsection may be
postponed.

(9) The contents of any wire, oral, or electronic communication
intercepted pursuant to this chapter or evidence derived
therefrom shall not be received in evidence or otherwise
disclosed in any trial, hearing, or other proceeding in a Federal
or State court unless each party, not less then ten days before
the trial, hearing, or proceeding, has been furnished with a copy
of the court order, and accompanying application, under which the
interception was authorized or approved.  This ten-day period may
be waived by the judge if he finds that it was not possible to
furnish the party with the above information ten days before the
trial, hearing, or proceeding and that the party will not be
prejudiced by the delay in receiving such information.

(10) (a) Any aggrieved person in any trial, hearing, or
proceeding in or before any court, department, officer, agency,
regulatory body, or other authority of the United States, a
State, or a political subdivision thereof, may move to suppress
the contents of any wire, oral, or electronic communication
intercepted pursuant to this chapter, or evidence derived
therefrom, on the grounds that --

(i) the communication was unlawfully intercepted;

(ii) the order of authorization or approval under which it was
intercepted is insufficient on its face; or

(iii) the interception was not made in conformity with the order
of authorization or approval. Such motion shall be made before
the trial, hearing, or proceeding unless there was no opportunity
to make such motion or the person was not aware of the grounds of
the motion.  If the motion is granted, the contents of the
intercepted wire, oral, or electronic communication, or evidence
derived therefrom, shall be treated as having been obtained in
violation of this chapter.  The judge, upon the filing of such
motion by the aggrieved person, may in his discretion make
available to the aggrieved person or his counsel for inspection
such portions of the intercepted communication or evidence
derived therefrom as the judge determines to be in the interests
of justice.

(b) In addition to any other right to appeal, the United States
shall have the right to appeal from an order granting a motion to
suppress made under paragraph (a) of this subsection, or the
denial of an application for an order of approval, if the United
States attorney shall certify to the judge or other official
granting such motion or denying such application that the appeal
is not taken for purposes of delay.  Such appeal shall be taken
within thirty days after the date the order was entered and shall
be diligently prosecuted.

(c) The remedies and sanctions described in this chapter with
respect to the interception of electronic communications are the
only judicial remedies and sanctions for nonconstitutional
violations of this chapter involving such communications.

(11) The requirements of subsections (1)(b)(ii) and (3)(d) of
this section relating to the specification of the facilities from
which, or the place where, the communication is to be intercepted
do not apply if --

(a) in the case of an application with respect to the
interception of an oral communication --

(i) the application is by a federal investigative or law
enforcement officer and is approved by the Attorney General, the
Deputy Attorney General, the Associate Attorney General, an
Assistant Attorney General, or an acting Assistant Attorney
General;

(ii) the application contains a full and complete statement as to
why such specification is not practical and identifies the person
committing the offense and whose communications are to be
intercepted; and

(iii) the judge finds that such specification is not practical;
and

(b) in the case of an application with respect to a wire or
electronic communication --

(iv) the application is by a Federal investigative or law
enforcement officer and is approved by the Attorney General, the
Deputy Attorney General, the Associate Attorney General, an
Assistant Attorney General, or an acting Assistant Attorney
General;

(v) the application identifies the person believed to be
committing the offense and whose communications are to be
intercepted and the applicant makes a showing of a purpose, on
the part of that person, to thwart interception by changing
facilities; and

(vi) the judge finds that such purpose has been adequately shown.

(12) An interception of a communication under an order with
respect to which the requirements of subsections (1)(b)(ii) and
(3)(d) of this section do not apply by reason of subsection
(11) shall not begin until the facilities from which, or the
place where, the communication is to be intercepted is
ascertained by the person implementing the interception order.  A
provider of wire or electronic communications service that has
received an order as provided for in subsection (11)(b) may move
the court to modify or quash the order on the ground that its
assistance with respect to the interception cannot be performed
in a timely or reasonable fashion.  The court, upon notice to the
government, shall decide such a motion expeditiously.


2519.  Reports concerning intercepted wire, oral, or electronic
communications
