    The Supreme Court granted certiorari in the case of James F. O'Callahan v. J. J. Parker, Warden, limiting review to the question of whether a court-martial has jurisdiction to try a member of the Armed Forces for a crime committed off-post and on leave that was cognizable in civilian court and had no military significance, which could deprive them of their constitutional rights to indictment by a grand jury and trial by a civilian jury. The motion to proceed in forma pauperis was granted and the case was placed on the summary calendar.

    Motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis granted. Petition for writ of
    certiorari to the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit granted

    '1. Does a court-martial, held under the Articles of War, Tit. 10, U.S.C. 801 et
    seq., have jurisdiction to try a member of the Armed Forces who is charged
    with commission of a crime cognizable in a civilian court and having no
    military significance, alleged to have been committed off-post and while on
    leave, thus depriving him of his constitutional rights to indictment by a grand
    jury and trial by a petit jury in a civilian court?'

    Case transferred to the appellate docket and placed on the summary calendar.
