   To authorize testimony in State of Mississippi v. Edward Statecum.

Whereas, in the case of State of Mississippi v. Edward Statecum, Case No. 
        M051648, pending in Municipal Court in the City of Clarksdale, 
        Mississippi, testimony has been requested from Kim Coalter, an employee 
        in the office of Senator Thad Cochran;
Whereas, by the privileges of the Senate of the United States and rule XI of the 
        Standing Rules of the Senate, no evidence under the control or in the 
        possession of the Senate may, by the judicial or administrative process, 
        be taken from such control or possession but by permission of the 
        Senate; and
Whereas, when it appears that evidence under the control or in the possession of 
        the Senate may promote the administration of justice, the Senate will 
        take such action as will promote the ends of justice consistent with the 
        privileges of the Senate: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That Kim Coalter is authorized to testify in the case of 
State of Mississippi v. Edward Statecum, except concerning matters for 
which a privilege should be asserted.
