CERTIORARI TO THE CIRCUIT COURT OF APPEALS

FOR THE FIFTH CIRCUIT

Syllabus

The Selective Service Regulations imposed no legal obligation upon an employer of a registrant under the Selective Training and Service Act to report to the local draft board facts which might have resulted in the registrant’s being placed in a different draft classification, and an employer’s failure to make such reports was not a violation of § 11 of the Act. P. 425.

158 F.2d 792 reversed.

Petitioner was convicted of a violation of § 11 of the Selective Training and Service Act. The Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed. 158 F.2d 792. This Court granted certiorari. 331 U.S. 797. Reversed, p. 425.
