What is the effect of a preliminary injunction issued against a police official in the case of the "Zebra" killings?
MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Williams v. Alioto, 625 F.2d 845 (9th Cir. 1980):
The police officials appealed the preliminary injunction. Before the appeal was heard, four persons were identified as the "Zebra" killers and were convicted and sentenced. The police investigation of the "Zebra" killings ceased; consequently, this court dismissed the appeal as moot and vacated the preliminary injunction, Williams v. Alioto, 549 F.2d 136 (9th Cir. 1977). A more complete statement of the facts is set forth in that opinion.
