Question Presented (from Petition)

1. Whether a statute enacted by Congress titled Prohibition of use as evidence of intercepted wire or oral communications, intended to establish a right separable from, and collateral to, rights asserted in the action, too important to be denied review and too independent of the cause itself to require that appellate consideration be deferred until the whole case is adjudicated."

2. Whether a statute enacted by Congress titled Litigation concerning sources of evidence, intended to establish a right separable from, and collateral to, rights asserted in the action, too important to be denied review and too independent of the cause itself to require that appellate consideration be deferred until the whole case is adjudicated."

3. Whether this court, in establishing the collateral order doctrine intended allowing appeals from interlocutory rulings (i.e., preceding final judgment) so long as those rulings conclusively decide an issue separate from the merits of the case and would be effectively unreviewable after final judgment.

Question Presented (AI Summary)
