1Per curiam
In these three cases, each of the petitioners is in custody within the District of Kansas, under Federal sentence imposed in another jurisdiction. Each petitioner asserts the availability of a writ of ha-beas corpus (28 U.S.C. § 2241) to test the validity of his respective sentence, on the ground that the remedy by motion under 28 U.S.C. § 2255 is “inadequate or ineffective.” The cases were consolidated on appeal for oral argument by appointed counsel, but the common question in each case will be considered upon its own facts.
