Jordan Jerrold Rattat v. United States
414 F.2d 1365
5th Cir.
1969
Check Treatment
PER CURIAM:

This appeal is from a conviction on two counts of violation of 26 U.S.C.A. § 4744(a) (1) (1964), for failure of a transferee of marihuana to pay the transfer tax thereon. We withheld a decision pending the outcome of Leary v. United States, 395 U.S. 6, 89 S.Ct. 1532, 23 L.Ed.2d 57 (1969) and United States v. Covington, 395 U.S. 57, 89 S.Ct. 1559, 23 L.Ed.2d 94 (1969). The government concedes that these decisions require reversal of appellant’s conviction.

Reversed.
