Young v. United States

Opinion

Per Curiam

The motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis and the petition for a writ of certiorari are granted. The judgment is vacated and the case is remanded to the United States Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit with directions to appoint counsel for the petitioner. If thereafter counsel is unable to present any non-frivolous issue on appeal, the Court of Appeals would then be free to dismiss the appeal as legally insubstantial.

The Chief Justice is of the opinion that the petition for a writ of certiorari should be denied.
