1Opinion of the Court
SNYDER, District Judge.
This is a petition for a writ of habeas corpus filed by Ramón Mirabal Carrion in which he alleges that he is being illegally restrained of his liberty by virtue of an indictment filed in this Court charging him with a violation of the Smith Act, 18 U.S.C. § 2385. He contends that said Act ceased to apply to Puerto Rico once the Constitution of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico went into effect.
The petition is denied for substantially the same reasons stated in Cosentino v. International Longshoremen’s Ass’n, D.C., 126 F.Supp. 420, decided by the Court on October 2, 1954.…
