William Louis Harrell v. Dallas B. Matthews

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit
William Louis Harrell v. Dallas B. Matthews, 439 F.2d 721 (5th Cir. 1971)
1971 U.S. App. LEXIS 10942
Clark, Gewin, Per Curiam, Roney

William Louis Harrell v. Dallas B. Matthews

Opinion

PER CURIAM:

Judgment affirmed. Without deciding the precise question as to whether a written copy of the charges should have been served, we believe that on the facts of this case, the confusing notice given to petitioner and his mother of the charges against him did not meet constitutional requirements. See In re Gault, 387 U.S. 1, 87 S.Ct. 1428, 18 L.Ed.2d 527 (1967).
