Commonwealth ex rel. Montanez v. Maroney

Opinion of the Court

Opinion

Per Curiam,

It has been held repeatedly that habeas corpus is not a substitute for an, appeal. Commonwealth ex rel. Coffman v. Keenan, 198 Pa. Superior Ct. 80, 182 A. 2d 288. Nevertheless, we have considered the matters *426raised by appellant and conclude that they have been properly disposed of by the lower court. Therefore we affirm the order of the Court of Common Pleas No. 5 of Philadelphia County on the opinion of President Judge Sloane, reported at 29 Pa. D. & C. 2d 383.
