The New York Times reports the U.S. Supreme Court will hear a case Oct. 8 to consider ruling whether U.S. Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court decisions can be publicly revealed. Earlier this year, the American Civil Liberties Union filed a request for the FISA court to reveal every major public decision between the Sept. 11 attacks and 2015, when the USA Freedom Act of 2015 gave the executive branch the power to decide publication of decisions. Meanwhile, the Federal Bureau of Investigation released the results of an audit that determined numerous FISA applications contained hundreds of errors across documents.
