General SummaryThis case is from a collection containing the full text of over 16,000 Supreme Court cases from 1793 to the present. The body of Supreme Court decisions are, effectively, the final interpretation of the Constitution. Only an amendment to the Constitution can permanently overturn an interpretation and this has happened only four times in American history.

In re Berg No. A-460 Decided November 2, 1972 409 U.S. 1238
ON APPLICATION FOR STAY AND BAIL PENDING APPEAL
Syllabus
Applicants, who were found in civil contempt after refusing to testify before a grand jury, have applied for a stay, contending that they and their attorneys were subjected to illegal electronic surveillance. The Government denied such surveillance with respect to the applicants, and asserted its unawareness thereof with respect to the attorneys, but did not show that diligent inquiry had been made.
Held: A stay is granted until the matter can be presented to, and acted on by, the full Court.
