                               RESOLUTION


 
      To authorize testimony in United States v. Margaret Murphy.

Whereas, in the case of United States v. Margaret Murphy, Case No. 
        2018CMD018331, pending in the Superior Court for the District of 
        Columbia, the Government has subpoenaed for testimony Jason Covey, an 
        employee of the Committee on the Judiciary;
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 can, by administrative or judicial 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 is needed for the promotion 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 Jason Covey, an employee of the Committee on the 
Judiciary, is authorized to testify in the case of United States v. 
Margaret Murphy, except concerning matters for which a privilege should 
be asserted.
