: Legal Pad | LARecords of baseball steroid use illegally obtained, says 9th Circuit
By Richard Binder
The full 11-judge panel of the U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled yesterday that federal agents illegally seized confidential drug-testing records for hundreds of professional athletes during their raid of a a Bay Area lab. The court barred prosecutors from using information from those records in its investigation of illegal steroid sales, upholding orders from three lower-court judges that all subpoenas resulting from those records be quashed.

In the decision, Chief Judge Alex Kozinski included new guidance to law enforcement on how to execute search warrants involving computer databases containing information outside the reach of the court-authorized searches.
