James W. Willett v. State of Georgia
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit · Decided December 22, 1978 · Thornberry, Godbold, Rubin
586 F.2d 1080; 1978 U.S. App. LEXIS 6786 (Federal Reporter, Second Series)

James W. Willett v. State of Georgia

Opinion

PER CURIAM:

It appears that petitioner, a state prisoner seeking habeas corpus, did not exhaust in state court his claim that the state knowingly concealed evidence favorable to him. The district court, therefore, correctly dismissed his petition on the ground of failure to exhaust. Galtieri v. Wainwright, 582 F.2d 348 (CA5, 1978) (en banc).

AFFIRMED.
