State ex rel. Kennedy v. Henderson

Opinion of the Court

In re: John O. Kennedy applying for writ of habeas corpus.

Writ denied. On the basis of the transcript of the sentencing of May 14, 1971, *1201and of the evidentiary hearing of October 19, 1971, we find no factual basis for the allegations that the defendant was not fully informed of his right to appeal. The record refutes his allegation that counsel failed to appeal after being requested to do so. The other allegations likewise present no grounds for relief.
