United States ex rel. Cateches v. Day/Opinion of the Court

by Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.

United States Supreme Court

283 U.S. 51

United States ex rel. Cateches  v.  Day

 Argued: March 2, 1931. ---

This case also arose in the Second Circuit, upon facts similar to those in No. 92, 283 U.S. 48, 51 S.C.t. 358, 75 L. Ed. -. The petitioner arrived in this country in October, 1925, upon an Italian ship, deserted at once and since has been engaged in land employment. He was arrested May 8, 1929, and after hearing was ordered to be deported on the same ground as the petitioner in No. 92. A writ of habeas corpus was applied for alleging that the arrest was not made within three years from the date of entry. The writ was dismissed by the District Court and the order was affirmed by the Circuit Court of Appeals (45 F.(2d) 142). A writ of certiorari was granted by this Court.

Judgment affirmed.
