Opinion of the Court
MATHEWS, Circuit Judge.

MATHEWS, Circuit Judge.

On April 11, 1935, appellant filed her petition praying for relief un'der subsections (a) to- (r), inclusive, of section 75 of the Bankruptcy Act.1 On September 26, 1935, she filed her amended petition, asking to be adjudged a bankrupt, pursuant to subsection (s) of section 75, as amended by the FrazierLemke Act of August 28, 1935, c. 792, § 6, 49 Stat. 943 (11 U.S.C.A. § 203(s). The District Court made such order of adjudication on September 28, 1935. On January 21, 1936, appellee, a creditor of appellant, moved to dismiss the proceeding, on the ground that subsection (s) of section 75, as amended by the Frazier-Lemke Act of August 28, 1935, was unconstitutional. On that ground alone the District Court on February 18, 1936, granted appellee’s motion and dismissed the proceeding. This appeal followed.

Since this appeal was heard, the Supreme Court has, in Wright v. Vinton Branch of Mountain Trust Bank, 57 S.Ct. 556, 81 L.Ed. -, decided March 29, 1937, held that subsection (s) of section 75, as amended by the Frazier-Lemke Act of August 28, 1935, is constitutional. Thus the ground on which the District Court dismissed this proceeding is now seen to be untenable. Compare Diller v. Shoemaker (C.C.A.9) 90 F.(2d) 98, this.day decided.

Order reversed.
