The United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit recently issued an en banc
opinion in United States v. Comprehensive Drug Testing, Inc., No. 05-10067 (9th Cir., August
26, 2009), affirming a series of lower court rulings granting motions for the return of

testing lab, and the Major League Baseball Players Association, attacked search warrants
that were issued as part of the government’s high-profile investigation into alleged
steroid use by professional athletes.
