United States Court of Appeals, Sixth Circuit.

4/4/86

AFFIRMED

E.D.Mich.

ON APPEAL FROM THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF MICHIGAN

Before: ENGEL, KENNEDY and CONTIE, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM.

Nathaniel Porter appeals from the district court order denying his petition for writ of habeas corpus filed pursuant to 28 U.S.C. Sec. 2254. Porter was convicted in 1973 of first degree, felony murder in violation of M.C.L. 750.316; M.S.A. 28.548. Porter raises several issues in his petition, claiming primarily that he was denied effective assistance of counsel. Upon review of Porter's claims, we find that the district court correctly denied Porter's habeas petition.

Accordingly, we AFFIRM the judgment of the district court, based on the findings and analysis of its order, No. 83-CV-0128-DT.
