A person who intercepts a wire communication in an emergency with one party's consent must, within 72 hours, apply in writing to a Supreme Court justice or district judge for ratification, showing that an emergency existed, a prior court order was impractical, and the chapter 179 requirements were otherwise met. If ratification is denied, any use or disclosure of the intercepted information is unlawful, and the person must notify the sender and receiver that the communication was intercepted and that ratification was denied.
