Opinion by (per_curiam) · Decided 1927-06-13

¶1In Error to the District Court of the United States for the Eastern District of Missouri.

¶2Before STONE and LEWIS, Circuit Judges, and SYMES, District Judge.

¶3PER CURIAM.

¶4This is a petition by one of the plaintiffs in error “to vacate and file mandate to review, or certify,” etc.

¶5This litigation has had a long course in this court, beginning in 1918, and various orders have been made therein. A partial outline is revealed in Cochran v. Becker (C. C. A.) 276 F. 280. The matter finally went, by writ of error to this court, to the Supreme Court which dismissed such writ for want of jurisdiction. 261 U. S. 607, 43 S. Ct. 363, 67 L. Ed. 824. Thereafter mandate from the Supreme Court issued to this court, being received by the clerk of this court on July 11, 1923. July 27, 1925, plaintiffs in error filed a motion to file that mandate. September 23, 1925, that motion was denied. December 3, 1925, the above petition was filed to vacate the last above order and to file the mandate. Some months later this motion was submitted. No change in situation is shown, nor any satisfactory reasons shown to us why the action of the court in denying the above motion should be set aside.

¶6The “petition” should be and is denied.
