Groups Challenge
Legality Of Raid
The National Bar Association (NBA), along with nine
other groups and individuals have filed amicus curiae
(friend of the court) briefs on behalf of nine members of
the Church of Scientology challenging the legality of the
1977 FBI raid on Church offices in Los Angeles.
The brief filed* with the U.S. Court of Appeals in
Washington, D.C., charged that the FBI raid^iosed "a
grave threat to the fundamental religious and associa
tional rights which are protected hv tho Eirct A m>nH
ment..."
Each of the 10 briefs adopted the detailed legal
arguments against the FBI raid set out by the American
Civil Liberties Union in an earlier friend of the court
brief.
Groups and individuals from around the country that
filed the briefs included the National Lawyers Guild, the
Center for Constitutional Rights, the Committee to Defend
the Constitution, and George Laine, Chairman of
the Freedom of Information Act Committee of the Los
Angeles Newspaper Guild*
On July 8, 1977, 134 FBI agents raided the Scientology
Churches in Washington, D.C. and Los Angeles, making
it the largest raid in the history of the FBI. The raid lead
to convictions of nine Church of Scientology members on
charges related to stealing government documents on the
Church.
