Matter of Magasis

Circuit Court of Appeals, Third Circuit
Nov 15, 1945
151 F.2d 802 (3d Cir. 1945)

Opinion

Nos. 8983-8985.

Argued November 9, 1945.

Decided November 15, 1945.

Appeal from the District Court of the United States for the District of New Jersey; Thomas F. Meaney, Judge.

Meyer Kreeger, of New York City (George M. Eichler, of Jersey City, N.J., on the brief), for appellants.

Grover C. Richman, Jr., of Camden, N.J. (Edgar H. Rossbach, U.S. Atty., of Newark, N.J., on the brief), for appellee.

Before MARIS, GOODRICH, and O'CONNELL, Circuit Judges.


In these three cases the district court denied the petitioners' applications for writs of habeas corpus. The applications allege facts similar to those disclosed in the case of United States ex rel. Samuels v. Pearson, Post Commanding Officer, Fort Dix, New Jersey, 3 Cir., 151 F.2d 801. For the reasons given in our opinion in that case it is clear that the facts alleged in these applications entitle the petitioners to the issuance of writs and hearings thereon.

Accordingly in each case the order of the district court is reversed and the cause is remanded to that court with directions to award a writ of habeas corpus as prayed for.
