Harris v. Battle
Opinion of the Court
Appeal from the Supreme Court of Appeals of Virginia.
The motion to substitute Thomas B. Stanley as a party appellee in the place and stead of John S. Battle is granted. It appearing that the cause has become moot, the judgment of the Supreme Court of Appeals of Virginia is vacated and the cause is remanded for such proceedings as by that Court may be deemed appropriate. United States v. Anchor Coal Co., 279 U. S. 812. Mr. Justice Reed would dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction. Norfolk Turnpike Co. v. Virginia, 225 U. S. 264, 269. Since the Court, however, treats the appeal as properly before it, he votes to dismiss on the ground of mootness.
