I must dissent.

I do not see any significant distinctions between the case before us and Thigpen v. United States Parole Commission, 707 F.2d 973 (7th Cir.1983), and Franklin v. Fenton, 642 F.2d 760 (3d Cir.1980), both of which allowed withdrawal of an issued parole violator warrant. Accord Thompson v. United States Parole Commission, 553 F.Supp. 1027, 1030 (D.D.C.1983).
