United States v. Thomas Leonard O'Brien
448 F.2d 643
(Federal Reporter, Second Series)
United States v. Thomas Leonard O'Brien
Opinion
O’Brien was convicted for his refusal of induction into the Armed Forces, in violation of 50 U.S.C.App. § 462. On appeal, O’Brien makes numerous claims, only one of which may have been thought to have possible merit. This is the contention that the State Selective Service Director had authorized a reopening of O’Brien’s late-matured conscientious objector claim in a letter recommending *644 that the local board follow Local Board Memorandum No. 41 and grant O’Brien a “courtesy interview.” However, this argument was recently resolved, adversely to O’Brien’s position, in United States v. Wood, 446 F.2d 505, 506 n. 1 (9th Cir. 1971).
Affirmed.
