Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

John D. Marsh, Miami, Fla., for appellants.

Fred Botts, Asst. U. S. Atty., Miami, Fla., Herbert S. Phillips, U. S. Atty., Tampa, Fla., for appellee.

Before HUTCHESON, Chief Judge, and STRUM and RIVES, Circuit Judges.


STRUM, Circuit Judge.

Appealing from a conviction of perjury, appellants here assert that the trial court erred in overruling their motion for new trial, one ground of which was that it was discovered after verdict that one of the jurors who sat in the case had been twice previously convicted of felony and was therefore disqualified, his civil rights not having been restored. 28 U.S.C.A. § 1861; sections 40.01 and 40.07, Fla.Stat.Ann.
