190 F. 686 | U.S. Circuit Court for the District of Southern New York | 1911
The affidavits presented by the petitioner upon the -return to the writ majr be regarded as a traverse to it, but they do not show any ground for the jurisdiction of this court. The relator was given ample opportunity by counsel to appear and present the testimony affecting the admission which was alleged against him, or any other evidence he had to offer, and he chose not to do so.
_ The alien is deported, among other reasons, as a person likely to become a public charge. Having been accorded a hearing, such as is required under the Japanese Immigration Case, 189 U. S. 86, 23 Sup. Ct. 611, 47 R. Ed. 721, the court cannot inquire as to whether there is any evidence at all, which would justify the board in coming to that conclusion as matter of fact, or matter of law.
Writ dismissed. Petitioner remanded.
