United States v. Delaney

CLARK, District Judge.

An application is made for bail. We have thought it wise in this district to lend perspective by prescribing the assistance of a judge other than the one who presided at the trial. The applicant has already been convicted of failing to pay his income tax to the United States. He objects to that conviction and wishes to point out the error or errors therein to the appropriate court of appeals. Under our system he has that right. His counsel seems to assume that he has an equal right to be enlarged upon bail pending the action of that court.

We are not surprised at such…
