What follows is an opinion from a United States Court of Appeals.
Intervenors who participated as parties at the courts of appeals should be counted as either appellants or respondents when it can be determined whose position they supported. For example, if there were two plaintiffs who lost in district court, appealed, and were joined by four intervenors who also asked the court of appeals to reverse the district court, the number of appellants should be coded as six.
Your task is to determine or not there was any amicus participation before the court of appeals.

Opinion:
Cortlandt R. TURNEY, Appellant v. HOME INSURANCE COMPANY.
No. 10492.
United States Court of Appeals Third Circuit.
Argued Dec. 3, 1951.
Decided Dec. 26, 1951.
C. R. Turney, pro se.
Joseph J. Biunno, Newark, N. J. (Lum, Fairlie & Foster and Raymond Del Tufo, Jr., all of Newark, N. J., on the brief), for respondent.
Before BIGGS, Chief Judge, and MARIS ánd GOODRICH, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM.
The questions presented by the appeal at bar are completely factual and need not be elaborated upon here. There is ample evidence to support the findings made in the succinct and able oral opinion of Chief Judge Forman delivered by him from the bench following argument in the case. We remark that an oral opinion, so delivered, saves the .time of the court and of the litigants and is admirably suited to issues such as those presented by the case at bar.
The judgment of the court below will be affirmed.
