HAMLEY, Circuit Judge:
Mike A.. Thomas, John Becker and Earl D. Greene, were jointly indicted, tried and convicted on charges involving possession of unregistered distilling apparatus, sale without stamp of distilled *784spirits, and conspiracy.1 The three took separate appeals which we consolidated for argument and disposition. While these appeals were pending, defendant ■Greene was murdered. As to his appeal it is, therefore appropriate to remand with directions to vacate the judgment and dismiss the indictment. We reverse the convictions of Thomas and Becker for the reasons stated below.
