Original proceeding. Petitioner seeks a writ of habeas corpus on the ground that his conviction was unconstitutional and illegal. Petitioner alleges that he is now in the technical custody of the warden of the Montana State Penitentiary, on inquiry of his counsel it appears that he has been released on bond by order of the United States District Court.
