Edmondson v. Wright

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit
Edmondson v. Wright, 177 F.2d 719 (4th Cir. 1949)
1949 U.S. App. LEXIS 3273

Edmondson v. Wright

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

This is an appeal in a habeas corpus case by a prisoner who is imprisoned in the Maryland Penitentiary under the sentence and judgment of a Maryland state court. The application for the writ was properly denied since application for habeas corpus on practically the same ground was denied by the Maryland courts, Edmondson v. Wright, 66 A.2d 386, and certiorari was denied by the Supreme Court, Edmondson v. Wright, 337 U.S. 947, 69 S.Ct. 1506, 93 L.Ed. -. There are no allegations which would justify the issuance of a writ of habeas corpus by the lower federal courts under such circumstances. See 28 U.S.C.A. § 2254; Wade v. Mayo, 334 U.S. 672, 68 S.Ct. 1270, 92 L.Ed. 1647; Goodman v. Swenson, 4 Cir., 173 F.2d 349.

Affirmed.
