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.
When coding the detailed nature of participants, use your personal knowledge about the participants, if you are completely confident of the accuracy of your knowledge, even if the specific information is not in the opinion. For example, if "IBM" is listed as the appellant it could be classified as "clearly national or international in scope" even if the opinion did not indicate the scope of the business. 

Your task concerns the first listed appellant. The nature of this litigant falls into the category "natural person (excludes persons named in their official capacity or who appear because of a role in a private organization)". Your task is to determine which of these categories best describes the income of the litigant. Consider the following categories: "not ascertained", "poor + wards of state" (e.g., patients at state mental hospital; not prisoner unless specific indication that poor), "presumed poor" (e.g., migrant farm worker), "presumed wealthy" (e.g., high status job - like medical doctors, executives of corporations that are national in scope, professional athletes in the NBA or NFL; upper 1/5 of income bracket), "clear indication of wealth in opinion", "other - above poverty line but not clearly wealthy" (e.g., public school teachers, federal government employees)." Note that "poor" means below the federal poverty line; e.g., welfare or food stamp recipients. There must be some specific indication in the opinion that you can point to before anyone is classified anything other than "not ascertained". Prisoners filing "pro se" were classified as poor, but litigants in civil cases who proceed pro se were not presumed to be poor. Wealth obtained from the crime at issue in a criminal case was not counted when determining the wealth of the criminal defendant (e.g., drug dealers).

Before EDGERTON, PRETTYMAN, and WASHINGTON, Circuit Judges. •
EDGERTON, Circuit Judge.
These appeals are from convictions under two indictments, tried together, each of which charged the present appellant with taking “immoral, improper, and indecent liberties” with a little girl. 62 Stat. 347, D.C.Code (1940), Supp. VII, § 22-3501 (a). The girls were sisters whom we will call A and B. A was six years old and B eight. Neither child was present at the alleged offense against the other.
In each case the testimony of the child concerned was practically the only evidence having any tendency to prove a crime. A doctor who testified to a small irregular reddened area and a slight yellowish-green discharge in A’s genital region testified also that this condition “could have been caused by any. number of things. * * * It could have been an irritation due to contact with moistures such as infant’s diaper rash or whatever you might like to call it. Q. Could that have been caused by contact with some other substance, for instance, someone rubbing it? A. Yes, I believe so.” He testified that the child’s condition might have been caused by her scratching herself, and that children often cause this condition in this way.
In court, A gave consistent testimony against “Mr. Johnnie”, the appellant. But she had previously told two different stories, each entirely inconsistent with the other and with her testimony at the trial. Her mother testified that when she found a discharge on the child’s underclothing she “asked her, I said who had been touching you, just like that. She said nobody, and I said yes, there has somebody been touching you. She said no> it hasn’t. I said if you don’t tell who has been touching you, I will kill you; like that. She said ‘A lady’. I said what lady ? She said she lived around the corner. I say ‘You come around and you are going to show me where the lady lives.’ I taken her around the block as much as three times and I said ‘Where does the lady live at?’ She said, T don’t know,’ so I had my husband bring her to the hospital. * * * Q. Did she ever tell you that a man named Johnnie did that? A. No, she didn’t tell me.” On the witness stand the child admitted having told her mother it was a lady who did what the child testified the appellant did.
The government’s case in respect to the alleged assault on B was quite as weak. B, like A, consistently accused the appellant at the trial. But unlike A, no marks were ever found on B or on her clothing. Her medical examination was wholly negative. And until after A had made her accusation against the appellant, B did not intimate that anyone had touched her or attempted to do so. Even then, B’s first statement to her mother was that “ ‘A man started to touch me but I ran’ ” and the man did not touch her. She neither said she had been touched, nor mentioned the appellant, until later.
The trial judge considered the cases “very weak on the evidence” but thought this court should have an opportunity to rule on the sufficiency of the evidence. Accordingly he submitted the cases to the jury. We must reverse both convictions because in our opinion reasonable doubt of appellant’s guilt is inescapable in each case. It is of course true that self-contradiction by the government’s sole eyewitness is not always fatal to the government’s case, for circumstances may prove a defendant’s guilt beyond reasonable doubt. But there are no such circumstances here. The mere fact that A and. B, when on the witness stand, each stuck to one of her several different stories is not such a circumstance. We need not consider appellant’s other contentions.
