- SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES
- --------
- No. 91-767
- --------
- REPUBLIC NATIONAL BANK OF MIAMI, PETITION-
- ER v. UNITED STATES
- on writ of certiorari to the united states court
- of appeals for the eleventh circuit
- [December 14, 1992]
-
- Justice Stevens, concurring in part and concurring in
- the judgment.
- While I agree with Justice Blackmun's analysis of the
- Government's Appropriations Clause argument, and join
- his opinion in its entirety, I also agree with The Chief
- Justice that 31 U. S. C. 1304, together with 28 U. S. C.
- 2465, provide a satisfactory alternative response.
- Moreover, like Justice White, and for the reasons stated
- in his separate opinion, I am surprised that the Govern-
- ment would make -such a transparently fallacious- argu-
- ment in support of its unconscionable position in this case.
- See ante, at 1.
