To authorize testimony and legal representation in State of New
Hampshire v. Macy E. Morse, et al.
Whereas, in the case of State of New Hampshire v. Macy E. Morse, et al., pending
in Portsmouth District Court for the State of New Hampshire, testimony
has been requested from Joel Maiola, a staff member in the office of
Senator Judd Gregg;
Whereas, pursuant to sections 703(a) and 704(a)(2) of the Ethics in Government
Act of 1978, 2 U.S.C. Sec. Sec. 288b(a) and 228c(a)(2), the Senate may
direct its counsel to represent employees of the Senate with respect to
any subpoena, order, or request for testimony relating to their official
responsibilities;
Whereas, by the privileges of the Senate of the United States and rule XI of the
Standing Rules of the Senate, no evidence under the control or in the
possession of the Senate may, by the judicial or administrative process,
be taken from such control or possession but by permission of the
Senate; and
Whereas, when it appears that evidence under the control or in the possession of
the Senate may promote the administration of justice, the Senate will
take such action as will promote the ends of justice consistently with
the privileges of the Senate: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That Joel Maiola is authorized to provide testimony in
the case of State of New Hampshire v. Macy E. Morse, et al., except
concerning matters for which a privilege should be asserted.
Sec. 2. The Senate Legal Counsel is authorized to represent Joel
Maiola in connection with any testimony authorized in section one of
