1Opinion of the Court
WEICK, Chief Judge.
This is an appeal from an order of the District Court denying each appellant’s petition for a writ of habeas corpus. The two petitions were consolidated' for hearing. The case has been before us previously. On that occasion we vacated the order of the District Court denying the petitions for a writ of habeas corpus and remanded for the purpose of holding a hearing and making factual findings as to whether petitioners were denied an opportunity to reasonably prepare their case in the state court in which they were convicted. 331 F.2d 19 (C.A. 6, 1964).
