We have searched for evidence of supersymmetry with the Collider Detector at Fermilab using trilepton events in p[anti p] collisions at[radical]s= 1.8 TeV. In the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM), we expect trilepton events from chargino-neutralino ([tilde[xi]][sup[+-]][sub 1][tilde[xi]][sup 0][sub 2]) pair production, with subsequent decay into leptons. In all possible combinations of electron and muon channels, we observe no candidate events in 107 pb[sup -1] of data. We present limits on chargino and neutralino production within the framework of a supergravity inspired MSSM:[sigma][sub[tilde[xi]][sup[+-]][sub 1][tilde[xi]][sup 0][sub 2]][center-dot] BR([tilde[xi]][sup[+-]][sub 1][tilde[xi]][sup 0][sub 2][yields] 3l+ X)0.34 pb and M[sub[tilde[xi]][sup[+-]][sub 1]] 81.5 GeV/c[sup 2] for tan[beta]= 2, [mu]= -600 GeV/c[sup 2] and M[sub[tilde q]]= M[sub[tilde g]]. We also present limits on a SU(5) x U(1) supergravity model and a 4 and 1/2 parameter Minimal SUGRA model.
