Task: songer_geniss

What follows is an opinion from a United States Court of Appeals.
Your task is to identify the issue in the case, that is, the social and/or political context of the litigation in which more purely legal issues are argued. Put somewhat differently, this field identifies the nature of the conflict between the litigants. The focus here is on the subject matter of the controversy rather than its legal basis. Consider the following categories: "criminal" (including appeals of conviction, petitions for post conviction relief, habeas corpus petitions, and other prisoner petitions which challenge the validity of the conviction or the sentence), "civil rights" (excluding First Amendment or due process; also excluding claims of denial of rights in criminal proceeding or claims by prisoners that challenge their conviction or their sentence (e.g., habeas corpus petitions are coded under the criminal category); does include civil suits instituted by both prisoners and callable non-prisoners alleging denial of rights by criminal justice officials), "First Amendment", "due process" (claims in civil cases by persons other than prisoners, does not include due process challenges to government economic regulation), "privacy", "labor relations", "economic activity and regulation", and "miscellaneous".

Alice Williams and John Williams, parties defendant in a complaint filed March 17, 1950, by the United States under Section 206 Housing and Rent Act of 1947, as amended, 50 U.S.C.A.Appendix, § 1891 et seq., filed an answer by their attorneys Loehtan and Wolfe. By leave of the trial court, granted February 25, 1952, these attorneys withdrew their appearances for both defendants. A stipulation, dated June 19, 1952, executed by different attorneys on behalf of these defendants was thereafter filed below. This stipulation waived findings of fact and conclusions of law, providing further that both Williams’ “Agree and consent to the entry of Judgment * * Judgment was then entered on the stipulation, June 20, 1952. After a petition for civil contempt was filed, attorneys Lochtan and Wolfe reappeared; moved for equitable relief and modification of the decree entered pursuant to the stipulation of substituted counsel.
Relief was rightly denied by the same district judge who entered the basic decree “pursuant to the stipulation of the parties * * * ” See: Hot Springs Coal Co. v. Miller, 10 Cir., 1939, 107 F.2d 677.
The judgment of the District Court is affirmed.
