ORDER AND MEMORANDUM
GRANT, Senior District Judge.
This habeas corpus proceeding comes to this Court for the third time after two previous appearances before the Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit, 614 F.2d 775; 652 F.2d 1. The history of this case is a long and troubled one which poses extremely difficult but highly significant legal and factual questions. It concerns the claim of a federal prisoner that he was incompetent to stand trial back in 1975. For the sake of completeness, the Court believes it would be valuable to initially trace all of the events leading up to this proceeding.
