The petitions for writs of certiorari are also granted limited to the following question: “Whether evidence obtained by the Government by means of deceptively placing a secret informer in the quarters and councils of a defendant during one criminal trial so violates the defendant’s Fourth, Fifth and Sixth Amendment rights that suppression of such evidence is required in a subsequent trial of the same defendant on a different charge.” The cases are consolidated and a total of three hours is allotted for oral argument.
