Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit

1Opinion of the Court

HUTCHESON, Chief Judge.

On the former appearance of this case here, all the controlling questions of law presented on this appeal were considered and determined, and what we write with respect to them this time will be but a re-threshing of old straw. Because this is so, and particularly because the judgment appealed from and the reasons given in support of it in the trial judge’s opinion 1 run counter to, indeed, if given effect would rewrite, the law of the case as we have declared and established it, a brief résumé of what has gone before will go far to dispose of this appeal.
