The following excerpt is from United States v. Gonzales Castro, 228 F.2d 807 (2nd Cir. 1956):
11 Cf. Gindorff v. Prince, 2 Cir., 189 F.2d 897, 898, where, in a civil case, we reversed because we rejected the trial judge's findings of fact, although they were supported by oral testimony of a witness he saw and heard because we considered that testimony patently incredible in the circumstances.
