The following excerpt is from United States ex rel. Watts v. Shaughnessy, 206 F.2d 616 (2nd Cir. 1953):
Nowhere else does the record show that there was any use of confidential information to influence the Attorney General's delegate and this broad general statement does not show that either. At most it is an admission that such confidential information "is frequently used in such cases" but not that there was any use of such information undisclosed to the appellant in this instance. So the issue as to any infringement of constitutional protection is not presented.
In our opinion, this appeal is indistinguishable from U. S. ex rel. Dolenz v. Shaughnessy, supra.
Order affirmed.
FRANK, Circuit Judge (concurring).
I concur for the reasons stated in the third paragraph.
