Smith, 5 Cir. 1968, 403 F.2d 723 [November 14, 1968]. Affirmed. Footnotes [1] This remedy was not available when the original habeas petition was filed March 2, 1967. The effective date of the Act was July 1, 1967, so that the remedy was available long before the District Court denied the petition.
