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.
Your task is to determine the specific issue in the case within the broad category of "criminal".

Opinion:
UNITED STATES of America v. Frank SCHROEDER, Appellant.
No. 14488.
United States Court of Appeals Third Circuit.
Argued Dec. 5, 1963.
Decided Dec. 18, 1963.
Zeno Fritz, Pittsburgh, Pa. (Lawrence S. May, Jr., Pittsburgh, Pa., on the brief), for appellant.
Stanley W. Greenfield, Asst. U. S. Atty., Pittsburgh, Pa. (Gustave Diamond, U. S. Atty., Pittsburgh, Pa., on the brief), for appellee.
Before STALEY, GANEY and SMITH, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM.
The appellant was tried and convicted on a single count indictment which charged him and three other defendants with making, passing, uttering and publishing a false application for credit, knowing the same to be false, in violation of § 1010 of Title 18 U.S.C. It is argued on this appeal that the evidence, viewed in the light most favorable to the Government, was insufficient to sustain the conviction. The case against the appellant rested solely on circumstantial evidence. After a review of the record, we are convinced that this evidence was not sufficient to establish a case from which the jury could have found the appellant guilty beyond a reasonable doubt; in fact, the verdict of guilty apparently rested on nothing more than conjecture. The motion for judgment of acquittal, made at the close of the evidence, should have been granted.
The judgment of conviction will be reversed and the case will be remanded to the District Court with a direction that a judgment of acquittal be entered.
