United States v. Robert MacKey
Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit
Decided June 12, 1981No. 81-1190PublishedCited by 26 opinions
1Per curiam
On May 4, 1981, the judges of this motion panel affirmed the district court’s contempt order. We indicated that an opinion would follow. 1
This appeal was taken under 28 U.S.C. § 1826 from a district court order holding MacKey, a defendant in a Sherman Act price-fixing case, in contempt for his refusal to produce documents subpoenaed by the government. MacKey asserted a Fifth Amendment privilege and also argued that the government had not met its burden of showing need and relevancy under Fed.R. Crim.P. 17(c).
We find that the documents subpoenaed are corporate rather than personal in nature…
