2. WE HAVE NOW BEEN OVER THE SUPREME COURT'S DECISION
IN THE TIMERMAN CASE AND HAVE DISCUSSED IT BRIEFLY WITH
TIMERMAN'S LAWYER. IN SUM, IT WAS A NARROW DECISION
DIRECTED AT
VilIKAMOWOMMMINI/THE ILLEGALITY OF TIMERMAN'S DETENTION
RATHER THAN THE UNCONSTITUTIONALITY OF THE LAWS UNDER
WHICH HE WAS DETAINED. IN THIS REGARD, IT FOLLOWED VERY
REF
CLOSELY THE REASONING SET FORTH IN/ A. WE ARE SUREt
HOWEVER6THAT LAWYERS HERE WILL TRY TO EXPLOIT THIS
DECISION TO FIND BROADER MEANING AND APPLICATION IN IT--
IN FACT THIS WAS CLEARLY IMPLIED TO US BY TIMERMAN'S LAWYER
WHO SAID "THEY THINK IT IS A NARROW DECISION BUT WE SHALL
SEE."
