On Petition for Rehearing
PER CURIAM.
None of the decisions, now for the first time cited, needs notice except United States v. Steese, 3 Cir., 144 F.2d 439, and Roberts v. United States, 5 Cir., 158 F.2d 150. In each of these the defendant was allowed to challenge a federal judgment because of matters dehors the record after the time prescribed, although he was not in custody under the judgment. In each he was, however, in custody under the judgment of a state court, the duration of the sentence upon which depended upon the validity of the federal judgment. It may be that that is a situation which justifies interposition by motion outside the Rules; we have no occasion to pass upon that question in the case at bar.
Petition denied.
