(Title 18, United States Code, Section 2113 [c].) ”; (2) a judgment and commitment (one paper) of said Federal District Court,- dated Decernher 3, 1971, which adjudged said attorney guilty and convicted as charged in said indictment, upon a jury verdict, and sentenced him to a prison term of eight years.
