22 U.S.C. § 9269c: Procedures for review of…

Summary

When a finding, restriction, or penalty under this subtitle depends on classified information, law-enforcement material, or other information that laws keep secret, and a court is asked to review that decision, the Treasury Secretary can give that protected information to the judge alone for private review. The judge may look at the material without showing it to the other parties. This does not give anyone the right to have a court review those findings, restrictions, or penalties.
