Opinion

SAPIR v. UNITED STATES.

Attorneys

Sam Dazzo for petitioner.
Solicitor General SobelojJ, Assistant Attorney General Olney, Beatrice Rosenberg and Joseph A. Barry for the United States.

majority Per Curiam.

The petition for writ of certiorari is granted.

We believe that the judgment of the Court of Appeals of October 20, 1954, reversing and remanding this cause with instructions to dismiss the indictment was correct. It is not necessary for us to pass on the question presented under its subsequent judgment of November 17, 1954, directing a new trial. We vacate the latter judgment, which directed the new trial, and we reinstate the former one which instructed the trial court to dismiss the indictment.
