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).

Opinion:
Walter Mark FLANAGAN, Petitioner-Appellant, v. Jim ROSE, Warden, Respondent-Appellee.
No. 72-2079.
United States Court of Appeals, Sixth Circuit.
Argued April 10, 1973.
Decided May 22, 1973.
Blanchard E. Tual (Court Appointed), Tual, Douglas & Tual, Memphis, Tenn., for petitioner-appellant.
R. Jackson Rose, Asst. Atty. Gen., Nashville, Tenn., David M. Pack, Atty. Gen., of counsel, for respondent-appel-lee.
Before PHILLIPS, Chief Judge, and KENT and LIVELY, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM.
This is an appeal from the denial of a writ of habeas corpus. The appeal challenges the legality of a search warrant which was executed by state officers to obtain evidence to establish that the appellant and his co-defendants had been robbing the coin box of a pay telephone. Two search warrants are involved: one for the search of rooms at a motel, and the other for the search of an automobile located on the motel premises.
The affidavit in support of the search warrant was executed by the same af-fiant in each case. The affiant was not identified as a police officer, which in fact he was. In each affidavit this appellant, together with his co-defendants, is named. The affiant stated, in his affidavit in support of the search warrant, “that he has good ground and belief and does believe * * * ” that the appellant and his co-defendants are in possession of stolen property and burglary tools, and the affidavit continued, “and his reasons for such belief are that affiant has received information from David Hindman that burglary tools and/or stolen property was stored at the above premises, November 11, 1965.” The other affidavit is exactly the same, except the word “automobile” is substituted for the word “premises”.
The affidavit does not identify David Hindman. There is nothing to establish or even suggest that David Hindman was an individual upon whose information reliance could be placed. There is nothing in the affidavit to establish the circumstances under which David Hindman may have obtained the information to which reference is made.
In summary the affidavits are clearly inadequate within the meaning of Aguilar v. Texas, 378 U.S. 108, 84 S.Ct. 1509, 12 L.Ed.2d 723 (1964), and Spinelli v. United States, 393 U.S. 410, 89 S.Ct. 584, 21 L.Ed.2d 637 (1969).
It is claimed by the appellee, and the district court found, that the magistrate who issued the search warrants had other information in regard to the circumstances which led up to the affidavit for the search warrant, including the identity of Hindman and how Hindman obtained the information, referred to in the affidavit, which justified the issuance of the warrant. ■
The transcript of the evidentiary hearing in the district court, and the transcript of all proceedings in the state trial court are insufficient to establish that the magistrate who issued the warrant took any sworn testimony to supplement the allegations in the affidavits for the search warrants. In fact the officer who swore to the affidavits in support of the search warrants testified before the District Judge:
“A. Well, I remember making this out [the affidavit] and taking it out to his residence.
Q. That is really all you remember about it, isn’t it, Mr. Anderton?
A. Telling him what happened, I don’t know what I said exactly. * * * * * -x-
Q. Sir, the other question that I wanted to try to make clear is, you can’t say whether or not you walked in there and just started talking to the Judge in, normally, as officers do, and as lawyers do in the courtroom, and made some statement to him about what your problem was and so forth, and then later presented, handed him the affidavit and the search warrant, and then he swore you to the contents of the warrant, you can’t tell us the sequence of events, can you?
A. No, sir. I sure can’t.”
The same issue relating to a magistrate having information in addition to that contained in the affidavit was presented to this Court in Tabasko v. Barton, 472 F.2d 871, 874 (6th Cir. 1972). The statement made in that case is applicable to this case.
“We have read and reread the entire transcript of the hearing before the District Judge. We find therein no language from affiant which can be construed as a statement that he gave evidence under oath, except when he swore to the contents of the affidavit.”
In addition to the transcript of the hearing before the District Judge we have read and reread the transcript of the trial of the principal case and can find nothing “which can be construed as a statement that the [affiant] gave evidence [before the magistrate] under oath, except when he swore to the contents of the affidavit.”
Since the evidence secured in the search was essential to establish the appellant’s connection with the crime the admission of such evidence cannot be harmless error.
The judgment of the District Court is reversed and the case is remanded for the entry of an order granting the writ of habeas corpus on such terms as may appear to the District Judge to be appropriate.
