Approved For Release 20 7/,93/03 : CIA;-R[ 3M00914R002900050043-3 ~(~tihDL;L J FROM: Stanley Sporkin General Counsel SUBJECT: Weekly OGC Report for the DCI/DDCI ITEMS OF MAJOR INTEREST - 6 - 12 November 1982 Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act. In a recent decision, U.S. v. Belfield, a panel of the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia upheld the constitutionality of the provisions of the Foreign Intelli- gence Surveillance Act (FISA) which allow a court to make an ex parte, in camera determination of the legality of electronic surveillance conducted pursuant to the Act. The decision of the Court was reached after two defendants, charged with murder and other related offenses in connection with the assassination of Ali Tabatabai, raised the constitutional question. Belfield is the second opinion to conclude that FISA is constitutional. The first, U.S. v. Falvey, was handed down in June of this year by the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York Wilson-Terpil Case. The trial of Edwin Wilson on gunrunning charges will begin in the U.S. District Court in Alexandria on Monday 15 November. The trial is expected to end on Wednesday, barring any unforeseen developments.)
