Morrow v. Tillinghast
U.S. Court of Appeals for the First Circuit · Decided October 17, 1929
35 F.2d 183; 1929 U.S. App. LEXIS 2935 (Federal Reporter, Second Series)

Morrow v. Tillinghast

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

In the District Court for Massachusetts the appellant’s petition for a writ of habeas corpus was denied for want of jurisdiction. The immigration authorities found that at the time of her entry into the United States the appellant was mentally deficient; that her mental impairment was such as then to render her liable to become a public charge; and ordered her deported. There was substantial evidence to warrant these findings. They are therefore final..

Appeal dismissed.
