Parker v. Ellis

Parker v. Ellis, 362 U.S. 574 (1960), was a United States Supreme Court decision (per curiam) in which the court granted certiorari to review dismissal of petitioner's application for a habeas corpus review.

The petitioner claimed that his conviction in a state court had violated the Fourteenth Amendment's Due Process Clause.

However, the petitioner was released from incarceration before his case could be heard.

The writ of certiorari was dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.
