The Supreme Court, --- U.S. ----, 103 S.Ct. 2261, 76 L.Ed.2d 794, has reversed our holding, 692 F.2d 354, 360-62, requiring that a hearing be held to determine whether Fulford possessed the mental competency to stand trial.   As this was the sole ground upon which we vacated the judgment of the district court, nothing remains to be done and no further proceedings are required.

AFFIRMED.
