Concurrence Opinion

HUFSTEDLER, Judge

(concurring and dissenting):

I concur in the result reached by a majority of the panel under the compulsion of In re Bacon (9th Cir. 1971) 446 F.2d 667" date_filed="1971-06-24" court="9th Cir." case_name="In the Matter of Leslie Bacon, a Witness Before the Grand Jury v. United States">446 F.2d 667; cf. United States v. Gelbard and United States v. Pamas (9th Cir. 1971) 443 F.2d 837" date_filed="1971-06-23" court="9th Cir." case_name="United States v. David Gelbard, United States of America v. Sidney Parnas">443 F.2d 837. Were the question open in this Circuit, I would hold that 18 U.S.C. § 2515 precluded a finding of contempt for reasons stated in the opinions of Judges Adams and Rosenn in In re Joques Egan (3d Cir. 1971) (en banc) [No. 71-1088, May 28, 1971] and in the opinions of Judges Bazelon and Wright in In re Evans and In re Fishlowitz (D.C. Cir. 1971) [Nos. 71-1499 & 71-1521, July 23, 1971].

I would enlarge the appellant on bail pending the filing of his petition for cer-tiorari.
