Order of 9 November 1931 in D.C. No. 23232 restating the sentence on the misdemeanor counts so that the record matches the sentence announced from the bench.

The catalog title is "Signed Order Amending Judgment and Sentence"; the order's own heading is "Order Amending Judgment and Sentence of October 24, 1931." It is entered in United States of America vs. Alphonse Capone, D. C. No. 23232.

On the government's motion, the court amends the record so that it states the orally announced sentence more clearly. It finds that if the felony sentences on counts 1, 5 and 9 end before the sentence on count 13, the sentence on count 18 follows completion of the sentence on count 13.

The jail terms on counts 13 and 18 were the subject of Capone's 1937 petition to vacate, which the District Court denied and the Seventh Circuit, in 93 F.2d 840, dismissed on appeal.
