                               RESOLUTION


 
   To authorize testimony in United States v. Max Obuszewski, et al.

Whereas, in the case of United States v. Max Obuszewski, et al., Case No. 2008-
        CMD-5824, pending in the Superior Court for the District of Columbia, 
        the prosecution has subpoenaed testimony from Justin Beller, an employee 
        in the Office of the Senate Sergeant at Arms;
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 consistent with the 
        privileges of the Senate: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That Justin Beller is authorized to testify in the case 
of United States v. Max Obuszewski, et al., except concerning matters 
for which a privilege should be asserted.
