LEWIS, Circuit Judge
(concurring):
As indicated in the main opinion this case reaches us for the second time. In our first consideration of Earnest’s claims we held that Earnest’s parole revocation proceedings were constitutionally faulty and remanded the case with instructions to fashion an appropriate remedy. 406 F.2d 681, 685. Pursuant to our mandate the trial court conducted in May 1969 the evidentiary hearings in the case at bar and in reliance on this court’s April 1969 decision in Cotner v. United States, 409 F.2d 853, denied relief to appellant. I am in complete agreement that Cotner is now dispositive of the present issues and consequently concur. But in so doing I must freely admit that I am unable to subjectively reconcile the rationale of the two cited cases.
