Head Matter:
Maurice M. Goldman vs. Commonwealth.
April 27, 1961.
Edward 0. Proctor, for the petitioner.
James W. Bailey, Assistant Attorney General, for the Commonwealth.

Opinion:
Petition dismissed. This is a petition for a writ of error to review the same order of contempt considered in Nickerson v. Dowd, decided this day, ante, 462. The parties agree that appeal, and not writ of error, is the proper remedy. Since this petition, as stated in the petitioner's brief, was brought only as a precautionary measure, and since the subject matter has been disposed of in the other case, this petition should be dismissed.
