425 U.S. 946 (United States Reports)

Buckley v. Valeo

Opinion of the Court

424 U. S. 1. Motions of Jimmy Carter et al. for leave to intervene, recall and modification of judgment and other equitable relief, and to advance and expedite denied. Motion of Democratic National Committee for leave to file a brief as amicus curiae denied.

Mr. Justice Stevens took no part in the consideration or decision of these motions.

Concurring Opinion

Mr. Justice Powell,

concurring.

I concur in the Court’s denial of the petition to intervene. As these cases have been remanded to the Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, jurisdiction with respect to relief sought by new parties at this time is vested in that court.
