OPINION ON REMAND


The Supreme Court vacated our judgment, which had affirmed the district court's suppression of certain wiretaps, and remanded the case for further consideration in the light of United States v. Donovan, 429 U.S. 413, 97 S.Ct. 658, 50 L.Ed.2d 652 (1977). Upon consideration of the briefs filed on remand, we conclude that Donovan dictates reversal of the judgment of the district court.

United States v. Bleau, 363 F. Supp. 438 (D.Md. 1973); United States v. Curreri, 368 F. Supp. 757 (D.Md. 1973); aff'd sub nom., United States v. Bernstein, 509 F.2d 996 (4th Cir. 1975); vacated and remanded, 430 U.S. 902, 97 S.Ct. 1167, 51 L.Ed.2d 578 (1977).

REVERSED.
