Task: songer_treat

What follows is an opinion from a United States Court of Appeals.
Your task is to determine the disposition by the court of appeals of the decision of the court or agency below; i.e., how the decision below is "treated" by the appeals court. That is, the basic outcome of the case for the litigants, indicating whether the appellant or respondent "won" in the court of appeals.

PER CURIAM:
Appellant was tried and convicted in Texas state court for assault with intent to murder. He seeks federal habeas corpus relief on the grounds he was tried in prison garb, rather than in civilian clothing, which we have granted on a number of occasions. Hernandez v. Beto, 5 Cir., 1971, 443 F.2d 634, Brooks v. State of Texas, 5 Cir., 1967, 381 F.2d 619, accord, Gaito v. Brierley, 3 Cir., 1973, 485 F.2d 86.
However, an examination of the evidentiary record in this case reflects beyond a reasonable doubt appellant’s guilt. We therefore hold the infraction to be harmless error. Thomas v. Beto, 5 Cir., 1973, 474 F.2d 981.
Affirmed.
