JONES v. BLACKWELL

No. 29245.

426 F.2d 821 (1970)

John Edward JONES, Petitioner-Appellant, v. Olin G. BLACKWELL, Warden, United States Penitentiary, Respondent-Appellee.

United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit.

June 1, 1970.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

John Edward Jones, pro se.

Allen I. Hirsch, Asst. U. S. Atty., Charles L. Goodson, U. S. Atty., Atlanta, Ga., for appellee.

Before JOHN R. BROWN, Chief Judge, and MORGAN and INGRAHAM, Circuit Judges.


PER CURIAM:

The appellant's sole contention on appeal of his denial of habeas corpus relief, is that he has been denied his right to a parole hearing. Since an affidavit has been filed in this court certifying that the appellant was in fact afforded a parole hearing on December 11, 1970, this appeal is dismissed as moot.
