Walton v. Director of Patuxent Institution
Supreme Court of Maryland · Decided March 6, 1964
234 Md. 609; 197 A.2d 920; 1964 Md. LEXIS 670

Walton v. Director of Patuxent Institution

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

This is an application to appeal from the denial of relief under a second petition for relief under the U.P.C.P.A. Under his first petition, all of his contentions were considered and rejected, after the court had appointed counsel to assist him. His present petition contains no grounds for relief which could not reasonably have been raised in his first; hence the trial court was justified in dismissing his petition. Maryland Rule BK48.

Application denied.
