The following excerpt is from Dinneen v. Williams, 219 F.2d 428 (9th Cir. 1955):
3 Original jurisdiction of actions to redress the deprivation of civil rights is conferred upon the district courts by 28 U.S.C.A. 1343. See Schatte v. International Alliance, 9 Cir., 182 F.2d 158, 166.
4 Cases in this classification are not applicable to the present discussion. See Bell v. Hood, 327 U.S. 678, 66 S.Ct. 773, 90 L.Ed. 939, which is also distinguishable upon the ground that there was considerable factual background in the complaint.
5 Of course, such allegations, if present, would properly relate to another allied statute. Cf. 42 U.S.C.A. 1985(3).
