Judge Walker's Probing Questions in Telco Immunity Case

By Professor University of Miami School of Law

Late yesterday Judge Walker issued an order listing 11 questions for both sides to be prepared to answer at today’s hearing in the telecoms immunity hearing being held at this moment in San Fransisco. (The case is more formally known as “In re National Security Agency Telecommunications Records Litigation, Mdl No. 1791.”)

These are really good questions — and they don’t suggest this is going to be an easy day for either side, but especially for the government.

I would have loved to be there; will be very interesting to hear how it went.
