District Ct. Op., United States v. Morison, 604 F. Supp. 655 (D. Md. 1985)
District court's denial of Morison's motion to dismiss. The court held that Sections 793(d) and (e) of the Espionage Act were neither unconstitutionally vague nor overbroad: finding Section 793(d). The court also rejected an argument that the legislative history of the Espionage Act indicates that these provisions were intended only to cover “the classic espionage" setting.
