United States v. Moussaoui
4th Circuit Court of Appeals; Case No. 06-4494
Argument(s)
Argues that providing classified discovery to defense counsel with security clearance under a protective order that prohibits disclosure to the defendant effectively denies the defendant the right to effective assistance of counsel and creates an ethical conflict of interest for the defense counsel; case involving classified evidence are proliferating and the legal principles and law enforcement techniques used in those cases are seeping into the prosecution of ordinary criminal cases.
