Simmons  v.  United States (348 U.S. 397)

 Argued: Feb. 2, 1955. --- Decided: March 14, 1955


Mr. Justice MINTON, dissenting.

Even if the Board has denied petitioner a fair re sume of all adverse information in the FBI reports, it does not appear to have been done arbitrarily or capriciously, and the judgment of the Board in doing so was allowable 'even if erroneous.' It takes more than disagreement with the Board to destroy jurisdiction, the only condition upon which courts may interfere. I would affirm.
