ON PETITION FOR REHEARING
PER CURIAM.
On consideration of the petition of Sam Joseph Battaglia, defendant-appellant, for a rehearing of the above case heretofore decided by opinion on March 17, 1969; and it appearing from said petition that, inter alia, defendant-appellant relies on Alderman v. United States, 394 U.S. 165, 89 S.Ct. 961, 22 L.Ed.2d 176 (March 10, 1969), and points to the material which resulted from electronic eavesdropping upon defendant-appellant’s father and which we previously examined in camera.
We have now re-examined the in camera material and find, as stated in our opinion, that not only is this material utterly irrelevant to this prosecution, but there is no suggestion either within the material or in the representations made concerning it that the overheard conver*285sations were defendant-appellant’s own, or took place in his premises, or even, in fact, took place within his presence and hearing. As we read Alderman and the related cases, defendant-appellant does not show he is entitled to further relief.
Finding no valid reasons for a rehearing on any grounds advanced in the petition, it is ordered that the same be and now is in all respects denied.
