MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Boudin v. Thomas, 732 F.2d 1107 (2nd Cir. 1984):

3 Oguachuba v. INS, 706 F.2d 93 (2d Cir.1983), provides no precedent for the instant case, as the issue of whether a habeas corpus proceeding is a "civil" action for the purposes of section 2412 was neither raised nor decided there.
