Description
BOYCE F. MARTIN, JR., Circuit Judge. In this emergency appeal, heard on October 13, 1983, the petitioners sought a writ of mandamus compelling either a decision from the district court on their application for immediate access to inspect and copy audio- and videotapes admitted into evidence or used in an ongoing criminal trial, or a stay in the criminal proceedings until a decision was rendered. In the alternative, the media petitioners requested an order granting them contemporaneous access to inspect and copy the audio- and videotapes. In an oral decision from the bench, this court denied the media's petition for a writ of mandamus and refused to issue an order granting them contemporaneous access to the tapes.
