"In re Neagle", 135 U.S. 1 (1890)ref|citation, was a United States Supreme Court decision that determined the question of whether the Attorney General of the United States had authority to appoint U.S. Marshals as bodyguards to Supreme Court Justices.

Facts

U.S. Marshal David Neagle was appointed by the attorney general to serve as a bodyguard to Justice Stephen Field while he rode circuit in California. When David S. Terry, a disappointed litigant with a grudge against Field, approached and appeared to be about to attack Field, Neagle shot and killed him. Neagle was arrested by California authorities on a charge of murder. The United States sought to secure the release of Neagle on a writ of habeas corpus. In the absence of a law specifically authorizing the appointment of bodyguards for Supreme Court Justices, the government relied on a statute that made the writ available to those "in custody for an act done or omitted in pursuance of a law of the United States."
