CONNORS v. PINE, 153 F.2d 643 (D.C. Cir. 1946)
CONNORS v. PINE, Associate Justice.
No. 100.United States Court of Appeals, District of Columbia Circuit.
Decided January 30, 1946.
Proceeding by Raymond F. Connors against David A. Pine, Associate Justice, District Court of the United States for the District of Columbia, on petition for leave to file a petition for writ of prohibition, mandamus, injunction or other relief requiring the exclusion of certain testimony in a criminal trial.
Leave granted and petition denied.
Mr. James J. Laughlin, of Washington, D.C., for petitioner.
Before GRONER, Chief Justice, and EDGERTON and WILBUR K. MILLER, Associate Justices.
PER CURIAM.
On consideration of petition for leave to file herein petition for writ of prohibition, mandamus, injunction, or other relief, It is
Ordered by the Court that leave to file the petition be, and it is hereby, granted, and that the petition for writ of prohibition, mandamus, injunction, or other relief be, and it is hereby, denied.
In denying the petition for the writ in the above-entitled matter we are of the opinion that the orderly administration of justice will be better served by our declining to exercise appellate jurisdiction in the mode desired. Admittedly petitioner has his remedy by appeal, and we see no reason why that remedy is not altogether adequate in the circumstances of this case. Cf. In re Chapman, 156 U.S. 211, 15 S.Ct. 331, 39 L.Ed. 401; United States ex rel. Deffer v. Kimball, 7 App.D.C. 499; and see Note (1942) 141 A.L.R. 1262 et seq. We accordingly express no opinion on the point involved.Page 644
