United States v. Southro

Circuit Court of Appeals, Sixth Circuit

8 F.2d 1023 (6th Cir. 1925)

Opinion

Nos. 4352-4354.

November 3, 1925.

Appeal from the District Court of the United States for the Southern Division of the Eastern District of Michigan; Arthur J. Tuttle, Judge.

Delos G. Smith, U.S. Atty., of Detroit, Mich. (Frederic L. Eaton, Asst. U.S. Atty., of Detroit, on the brief), for the United States.

J. Julien Southerland, of New York City (Corliss, Leete Moody, of Detroit, Mich., and Francis Raymond Stark, of New York City, on the brief), for appellees.

Before DONAHUE and MOORMAN, Circuit Judges, and SESSIONS, District Judge.


The records in the above-entitled cases present substantially the same questions of fact and law and were heard and submitted together. Each of the above appellees was arrested upon a warrant of deportation issued by the Department of Labor, and, after hearing before an immigration inspector, was ordered deported. In each case a petition for a writ of habeas corpus was filed in the District Court. The writs were sustained, and the petitioners were discharged and released from custody. The government appeals.

The controlling facts and the legal principles upon which the District Court based its conclusion fully appear in the opinion of that court in Ex parte Gouthro, 296 F. 506. After a careful consideration of the record, briefs, and arguments of counsel, this court concurs in the conclusion reached by the District Court, for the reasons stated in its opinion and fully sustained by the authorities therein cited. It is therefore wholly unnecessary to burden the reports with a restatement of facts, or a further discussion of the principles of law involved.

The decree in each case is affirmed.
