Gold v. United States
Argued: Jan. 22 and 23, 1957. --- Decided: Jan 28, 1957
The judgment is reversed and the case remanded to the District Court with directions to grant a new trial because of official intrusion into the privacy of the jury. Remmer v. United States, 350 U.S. 377, 76 S.Ct. 425; 347 U.S. 227, 74 S.Ct. 450, 98 L.Ed. 654. The fact that the intrusion was unintentional does not remove the effect of the intrusion.
Mr. Justice REED, with whom Mr. Justice BURTON and Mr. Justice CLARK join, dissenting.
