Dueller, Kurt V???
 

Got an interesting letter in the mail today from the DA here. Seems they ran a phone tap and we're one of the phone numbers. Says it doesn't mean our phone was tapped. The notice is sent to:

1) The party named in the tap application;
2) A known party to intercepted communication and
3) a person for whom telephone subscriber info was obtained as a result of the phone being used in an intercepted conversation.

that is exactly how its written...should the word "and" be "or"?

Also says to take no action, won't be given any further info or outcome of investigation. It gives the dates taps were granted. They were 30 days in length, but were cut off about 2 weeks after inception. Went on about 3 -4 mos. Strange...only thing my guys and I can think of is an employee of a cutomer jailed for gun running.:confused:

Almost certainly, your line was not tapped.

Although the wording isn't precise, as you point out, that's a standard notice sent to anyone who has any involvement with a tapped line. For example, if you have a business and get lots of calls, from all over, if even one of those calls originated from a tapped line, you get that notice.

I'm a little foggy on the details, but from what I can recall, the DA won't give you any further information (although there may be a phone number on there that you can call and get recorded information).

The way to get more details would be to try to get a court order, as I recall. And even if you try, you might not get it. Unless you are doing something out of your business that is illegal and would make you suspect you are the target for a tapped line, there's not much to do but let it go.

Whew...I think:D As many wierdos in this trade and this be the 1st time in 20+ years. Yeah...there's a number listed...I'm sure its a loop tape.

The notice is sent to all those groups of people.

friends of yours;):D
