Michael Alan McCarroll v. Lonnie Morrow and Ernest L. Holman, Dallas County Sheriff's Deputies

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit January 12, 1971

Michael Alan McCarroll v. Lonnie Morrow and Ernest L. Holman, Dallas County Sheriff's Deputies, 435 F.2d 560 (5th Cir. 1971)

Wisdom, Coleman, Simpson

Opinion

PER CURIAM:

This is an appeal from District Court denial of a civil rights petition seeking declaratory and injunctive relief. 1 Appellant, McCarroll, asserts that he has been subjected to cruel and inhuman treatment by certain prison officials in the Dallas County Jail. An uncontested affidavit has been filed in this Court certifying that the appellant is no longer an inmate of the Dallas County Jail. This appeal, therefore, is dismissed as moot.

Appeal dismissed.

. It is appropriate to dispose of this pro se case summarily, pursuant to this Court’s local Rule 9(c) (2), appellant having failed to file a brief within the time fixed by Rule 31, Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure. Kimbrough v. Beto, Director, 5th Cir., 1909, 412 F.2d 981.
