Robert L. Cummings v. Lamont Smith, Warden, Georgia State Prison, Reidsville, Georgia

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

This appeal is from an order denying habeas corpus relief to a Georgia State convict. We do not reach the merits, having been advised by the respondent-appellee that the petitioner-appellant was discharged from custody on March 19, 1968, more than a month before the date the appeal was docketed before us. The appeal is dismissed for mootness.

Appeal dismissed.
