Court rules bank records not private property in subpoenas
The Supreme Court, in a 7 to 2 ruling, held bank customers have no right to contest government subpoenas of their records, which banks keep as negotiable instruments. The decision, by Justice Powell, found customers bear no legitimate expectation of privacy. The case reversed a lower court ruling in Mitchell Miller's whiskey still trial. A second ruling opened honor code records of military academies to public scrutiny, limiting cadet privacy claims.
