of government” means:
(a) The
federal government or any state or political subdivision thereof; or

section 1 of this 2011 Act, if the information relates to or assists in an
investigation conducted by an authorized tribal police officer as defined in

(2) A unit of government has a
privilege to refuse to disclose the identity of a person who has furnished
information relating to or assisting in an investigation of a possible

committee or its staff conducting an investigation.
(3) The privilege created by this
section may be claimed by an appropriate representative of the unit of
government if the information was furnished to an officer thereof.
(4) No privilege exists under this
section:
(a) If the identity of the informer or
the informer’s interest in the subject matter of the communication has been
disclosed to those who would have cause to resent the communication by a holder
of the privilege or by the informer’s own action, or if the informer appears as
a witness for the unit of government.

the case or from other showing by a party that an informer may be able to give
testimony necessary to a fair determination of the issue of guilt or innocence

privilege, and the judge gives the unit of government an opportunity to show in
camera facts relevant to determining whether the informer can, in fact, supply
that testimony. The showing will ordinarily be in the form of affidavits, but

counsel and parties shall be permitted to be present at every stage of proceedings
under this paragraph except a showing in camera, at which no counsel or party
shall be permitted to be present.

relied upon to establish the legality of the means by which evidence was
obtained and the judge is not satisfied that the information was received from
an informer reasonably believed to be reliable or credible. The judge may
require the identity of the informer to be disclosed. The judge shall, on
request of the unit of government, direct that the disclosure be made in
camera. All counsel and parties concerned with the issue of legality shall be
permitted to be present at every stage of proceedings under this paragraph
except a disclosure in camera, at which no counsel or party shall be permitted
to be present. If disclosure of the identity of the informer is made in camera,
the record thereof shall be sealed and preserved to be made available to the
appellate court in the event of an appeal, and the contents shall not otherwise
be revealed without consent of the unit of government.

[(b)
A tribal government as defined in section 1 of this 2011 Act, if the
information relates to or assists in an investigation conducted by an
authorized tribal police officer as defined in section 1 of this 2011 Act.]
(2) A unit of government has a
privilege to refuse to disclose the identity of a person who has furnished
information relating to or assisting in an investigation of a possible
violation of law to a law enforcement officer or member of a legislative
committee or its staff conducting an investigation.
(3) The privilege created by this
section may be claimed by an appropriate representative of the unit of
government if the information was furnished to an officer thereof.
(4) No privilege exists under this
section:
(a) If the identity of the informer or
the informer’s interest in the subject matter of the communication has been
disclosed to those who would have cause to resent the communication by a holder
of the privilege or by the informer’s own action, or if the informer appears as
a witness for the unit of government.
(b) If it appears from the evidence in
the case or from other showing by a party that an informer may be able to give
testimony necessary to a fair determination of the issue of guilt or innocence
in a criminal case or of a material issue on the merits in a civil case to
which the unit of government is a party, and the unit of government invokes the
privilege, and the judge gives the unit of government an opportunity to show in
camera facts relevant to determining whether the informer can, in fact, supply
that testimony. The showing will ordinarily be in the form of affidavits, but
the judge may direct that testimony be taken if the judge finds that the matter
cannot be resolved satisfactorily upon affidavit. If the judge finds that there
is a reasonable probability that the informer can give the testimony, and the
unit of government elects not to disclose identity of the informer, the judge
on motion of the defendant in a criminal case shall dismiss the charges to
which the testimony would relate, and the judge may do so on the judge’s own
motion. In civil cases, the judge may make any order that justice requires.
Evidence submitted to the judge shall be sealed and preserved to be made
available to the appellate court in the event of an appeal, and the contents
shall not otherwise be revealed without consent of the unit of government. All
counsel and parties shall be permitted to be present at every stage of
proceedings under this paragraph except a showing in camera, at which no
counsel or party shall be permitted to be present.

relied upon to establish the legality of the means by which evidence was
obtained and the judge is not satisfied that the information was received from
an informer reasonably believed to be reliable or credible. The judge may
require the identity of the informer to be disclosed. The judge shall, on
request of the unit of government, direct that the disclosure be made in
camera. All counsel and parties concerned with the issue of legality shall be
permitted to be present at every stage of proceedings under this paragraph
except a disclosure in camera, at which no counsel or party shall be permitted
to be present. If disclosure of the identity of the informer is made in camera,
the record thereof shall be sealed and preserved to be made available to the
appellate court in the event of an appeal, and the contents shall not otherwise
be revealed without consent of the unit of government.

there is probable cause to believe that a person whose oral communication is to
