United States v. Ryan

No. 758

Argued April 26, 1971

Decided May 24, 1971

402 U.S. 530

Syllabus

District Court's order denying respondent's motion to quash a grand jury subpoena duces tecum requiring the production of records under his control in Kenya was not final, and therefore not appealable, Cobbledick v. United States, 309 U. S. 323, nor was it rendered an appealable temporary injunction by inclusion of a provision requiring respondent to seek permission from Kenyan authorities to remove some documents from Kenya and, if such permission was denied, to grant United States agent access to the documents in that country. Pp. 402 U. S. 532-534.

430 F.2d 658, reversed.

BRENNAN, J., delivered the opinion for a unanimous Court.
