    The Supreme Court granted Michael Bratcher's petition to proceed in forma pauperis and his petition for a writ of certiorari. The Court vacated the judgment of the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals and remanded the case back to that court for reconsideration in light of the contrary position now taken by the respondents. The Ninth Circuit may decide whether to adhere to its previous ruling or determine if remanding the case to the District Court would be appropriate.

    v.
    Melvin S. LAIRD, Secretary of Defense, et al.
    No. 1391, Misc.

    Supreme Court of the United States


    March 16, 1970

    Solicitor General Griswold, for respondents.


    On Petition for Writ of Certiorari to the United States Court of Appeals
    for the Ninth Circuit.
    PER CURIAM.

    The motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis is granted.

    Upon consideration of the suggestion of the Solicitor General and upon an


    examination of the entire record, the petition for a writ of certiorari is granted,
    the judgment of the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit is
    vacated, and the case is remanded to that court in order that it may consider
    whether it wishes to adhere to its decision in light of the contrary position now
    adopted by respondents. If it decides not to adhere to its former ruling, the
    Court of Appeals may then determine whether it would be appropriate to
    remand the case to the District Court.
