  The Court is advised that the respondent died in Ingham County, Mich., on December 7, 1984. The Court’s order granting the writ of certiorari, see 469 U. S. 1033 (1984), therefore is vacated, and the petition for certiorari is dismissed. See Warden v. Palermo, 431 U. S. 911 (1977).
  It is so ordered.
