Opinions
An appeal in forma pauperis was allowed from a conviction for rape and robbery in a most aggravated form. Although court-appointed counsel ably discharged the duties placed on him by this court, the full record now before us demonstrates that the appeal is without merit and frivolous and it is therefore dismissed under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(d) (1952), which provides:
“The court * * * may dismiss the case if the allegation of poverty is untrue, or if satisfied that the action is frivolous * *
Appeal dismissed.
