PER CURIAM.

Counsel who successfully prosecuted the appeal in Mejia v. United States, 9 Cir., 291 F.2d 198, has made application to this court for leave to file a petition for a writ of mandamus on behalf of said Mejia and has filed an affidavit in support of that application setting forth the reasons and grounds which it is proposed to be set forth in such a petition. Upon suggestion of this court the United States has filed a memorandum in opposition to the petitioner’s application.
