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:
William Budslow POTTER, Appellant, v. UNITED STATES of America, Appellee.
No. 17275.
United States Court of Appeals Eighth Circuit,
May 31, 1963.
William Budslow Potter, pro se.
F. Russell Millin, U. S. Atty., and William A. Kitchen, Asst. U. S. Atty., Kansas City, Mo., filed printed brief for appellee.
Before VAN OOSTERHOUT and BLACKMUN, Circuit Judges, and YOUNG, District Judge.
PER CURIAM.
This is an appeal by William Budslow Potter, hereinafter called defendant, from an order dated January 8, 1963, denying his motion filed pursuant to 28 U. S.C.A. § 2255 and Rule 35, Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure, to vacate or correct sentences alleged to be illegal.
Defendant, represented by counsel of his own choice, entered voluntary pleas of guilty in case No. 2240, to Count I of an indictment charging him with armed robbery of the Cornerstone Bank, Southwest City, Missouri, and to Count V charging conspiracy to commit said robbery. He was duly sentenced to 14 years imprisonment on Count I and 3 years imprisonment on Count V, said sentences to be served consecutively. At the same time, defendant having previously signed waiver of indictment and consent to transfer under Rule 20, entered pleas of guilty, and was sentenced to 5 year terms upon three informations charging other robberies. (Cases Nos. 19215, 19218 and 19225.) The sentencing orders specificalfy state that the imprisonment is consecutive to that imposed in No. 2240, and consecutive sentences were imposed in each of the transferred cases, the judgment entries specifically stating the order in which the sentences were to be served. The consecutive sentences aggregated 32 years. Each of the sentences imposed is within the limits prescribed by statute for the punishment of the offenses charged.
Defendant’s contention that the court is without jurisdiction or power to impose consecutive sentences is wholly without merit. Callanan v. United States, 364 U.S. 587, 81 S.Ct. 321, 5 L.Ed.2d 312; Shields v. United States, 6 Cir., 310 F.2d 708; Swepston v. United States, 8 Cir., 289 F.2d 166; Ellerbrake v. King, 8 Cir., 116 F.2d 168.
Defendant’s claim that the language used in imposing the consecutive sentences is ambiguous and ineffective is likewise completely without merit. The court in its orders imposing sentences clearly sets out the fact that the sentences are consecutive and prescribes the order in which they are to be served.
The court committed no error in not granting the defendant a hearing upon his motion. We agree with the trial court’s determination that the files and records in this case conclusively show that defendant is entitled to no relief. Other contentions urged by the defendant have been carefully examined and found to be without merit.
Affii-med.
