Remodeling The Classified Information Procedures Act (Cipa), Afsheen John Radsan 2010 Mitchell Hamline School of Law

Remodeling The Classified Information Procedures Act (Cipa), Afsheen John Radsan

Faculty Scholarship

The intelligence community and the law enforcement sector are supposed to be working closely to keep us all safe from terrorists and other dangers.

UF Law Faculty Publications
