Abstract: 
In a recent per curiam opinion, apparently written by Supreme Court nominee, Robert Bork, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia takes a sharply different view from the Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit on the propriety of a United States court enforcing a subpoena calling for a bank to produce records located aboard relating to transactions taking place abroad.
