Singleton v. Hiatt
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit · Decided April 20, 1949
173 F.2d 899; 1949 U.S. App. LEXIS 2936 (Federal Reporter, Second Series)

Singleton v. Hiatt

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

We have carefully examined each and every contention raised by petitioner in his application for the writ of habeas corpus and find them, without exception, wholly without support or foundation in the record and totally lacking in merit. It follows that the judgment of the district court discharging the writ and remanding petitioner into the custody of appellee should be, and the same is hereby affirmed.1
