CERTIORARI TO THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS

FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA CIRCUIT

Acting under R.S. § 487, 35 U.S.C. § 11, the Commissioner of Patents found, after hearings, that an attorney had been guilty of gross misconduct and entered an order barring him from practice before the Patent Office.

Held: The findings were amply supported by the evidence, charges of unfairness in the hearings were wholly without support, and the order is sustained. Pp. 338 U. S. 318-320.

84 U.S.App.D.C. 264, 173 F.2d 405, reversed; 69 F.Supp. 788, affirmed.
