Commonwealth Ex Rel. Sherman v. Burke

Commonwealth Ex Rel. Sherman v. Burke

Opinion

Opinion

per Curiam,

On the showing made by the petitioner, the question involved is whether he is now eligible for parole. A petition for a writ of habeas corpus is not the proper procedure for obtaining an adjudication of the petitioner’s alleged rights in the premises: cf. Kinsella v. Board of Trustees, 340 Pa. 497, 498, 17 A. 2d 882.

Petition denied.
