In _ACLU v. NSA _, the Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit decided to vacate the District Court's decision that the extrajudicial electronic intercepts of the National Security Agency , where one party is within the U.S. and the other is outside, violated the law. The Court decided that the plaintiffs lacked standing. Judge Ronald Gilman wrote a long dissent, in which he argued that the plaintiffs did have standing, and that the Terrorist Surveillance Program as originally implemented violated the FISA.

Appeals judges Ronald Gilman, Gilbert Merritt , and Alan Eugene Norris unanimously reversed the decision of United States District Judge Thomas B. Russell , who had ruled in August 1997 against Jefferson County officials, therefore allowing county fiscal judges to regulate adult businesses.
