. See NLRB v. Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America, 430 F.2d 966 (5th Cir. 1970).

Appellant was convicted in state court on his pleas of guilty in each of four separate criminal proceedings. In the United States District Court, which held a full evidentiary hearing at which appellant was represented by counsel, lie contended that in each case his guilty plea was coerced; he was not advised by the trial court of his Constitutional rights ; and that each of his four separate counsel appointed to represent him was ineffective in failing to explain his rights.
