United States versus Delyla D. Wilson is a criminal case set for trial in the U.S. District Court for the District of Montana, charging the defendant with assault on Federal officials. The case arises out of the defendant's disruption of a public meeting in Montana earlier this year attended by Senator Conrad Burns, along with other Federal and State officials. Both parties have subpoenaed an employee on Senator Burns' staff, who witnessed this incident, to testify at the trial. This resolution would authorize the employee to testify and would also authorize Senator Burns' testimony at related State proceedings.
