Opinion

PER CURIAM.

It appearing that Higgins’ petition for permission to prosecute his appeal in forma pauperis shows that it presents for consideration the following substantial questions: (a) whether he had been wrongfully deprived of bail where he is confined though not convicted of any crime and (b) whether one not convicted of a crime may be lawfully committed by a federal court, pursuant to 18 U.S.C.A. § 4244, as mentally incompetent without benefit of a jury trial, and that Pliggins has established that the district court’s certificate that the appeal is not taken in good faith is “without warrant,” Higgins v. Steele, 8 Cir., 195 F.2d 366, 369; Wells v. United States, 318 U.S. 257, 259, 63 S.Ct. 582, 87 L.Ed. 746.

It is ordered that Higgins may prosecute his appeal in forma pauperis.
