Fifth Circuit

Gillon v. United States

124 F.2d 1018, 1942 U.S. App. LEXIS 4589

Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit·Decided January 21, 1942·No. No. 9901·Published

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

This is an appeal from a judgment convicting appellant of contempt of court. It was tried on a rule for contempt by the judge without the intervention of a jury. The case is in all respects similar to the case of Wimberly v. United States, 5 Cir., 119 F.2d 713, in which we reversed the judgment on the authority of Nye v. United States, 313 U.S. 33, 61 S.Ct. 810, 85 L.Ed. 1172. On the authority of these two decisions the judgment is reversed.
