Shirey <p>No details yet.</p> http://www.oyez.org/cases/1950-1959/1958/1958_72/ United States v. Sun-Diamond Growers <p>Must there be a specific link between the giving of a gratuity to a government official and the latter's performance of a specific act in order to sustain an illegal-gratuity-statute conviction?</p><p>Yes. In a unanimous opinion, the Court held that to sustain conviction for federal bribery there must be a clear quid pro quo link between the gratuity received and performance of a specific past, present, or future "official" act. The Court reasoned that a statutory interpretation that punished the giving of any gifts to public officials would not fit comfortably with the legislation's spirit and traditions. The Court noted that the giving of gratuities to officials, by virtue of their position, is not the same as bribery of officials for the performance of specific conduct.</p> http://www.oyez.org/cases/1990-1999/1998/1998_98_131/
