Earl Barton Duron v. United States
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit · Decided April 7, 1955 · Stephens, Fee, Walsh
221 F.2d 187; 1955 U.S. App. LEXIS 3493 (Federal Reporter, Second Series)

Earl Barton Duron v. United States

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

Appellant here contends that his conviction of violating the Universal Military Training and Service Act by knowingly failing and refusing to submit to induction into the armed forces of the United States must be reversed because *188 the appeal board in his case failed to give him an opportunity to answer adverse recommendations of the Department of Justice before finally classifying him. Appellant’s contention must be sustained. Gonzales v. United States, 75 S.Ct. 409; Bradley v. United States, 75 S.Ct. 532.

Accordingly, the judgment of the Court below is reversed.
