Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit December 4, 1978, 75-8095 (Jose Estrada v. United States)

PER CURIAM:

Appellant seeks reinstatement of an appeal that was dismissed without prejudice three and one-half years ago when he removed himself from the jurisdiction of this court by becoming a fugitive.

1

The only reason his motion for reinstatement is before us now is because he was recently recaptured and forcibly returned to the jurisdiction of this court.
