SENATE RESOLUTION 162--TO AUTHORIZE TESTIMONY OF EMPLOYEE OF THE SENATE 
             IN STATE OF NEW MEXICO V. FELIX LUCERO CHAVEZ

  Mr. LOTT (for himself and Mr. Daschle) submitted the following 
resolution; which was considered and agreed to:

                              S. Res. 162

       Whereas, in the case of State of New Mexico v. Felix Lucero 
     Chavez, No CR 4646-99, pending in the Metropolitan Court for 
     Bernalillo County, New Mexico, a subpoena has been served on 
     Kristen Ludecke, an employee of the Senate;
       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 process, be taken from such control or 
     possession but by permission of the Senate;
       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 Kristen Ludecke is authorized to testify in 
     the case of State of New Mexico v. Felix Lucero Chavez, 
     except concerning matters for which a privilege should be 
     asserted.
