William F. McKnight v. Howard M. Comstock, Supt. S.C.C., Henry W. Kerr, Chrm. Adult Auth.
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit
William F. McKnight v. Howard M. Comstock, Supt. S.C.C., Henry W. Kerr, Chrm. Adult Auth., 445 F.2d 317 (9th Cir. 1971)
William F. McKnight v. Howard M. Comstock, Supt. S.C.C., Henry W. Kerr, Chrm. Adult Auth.
Opinion
The denial of McKnight’s petition for a writ of habeas corpus is affirmed for the reasons given in the district court’s order of March 25, 1970. See also Ellhamer v. Wilson, 9 Cir., 1971, 445 F.2d 856 (July 7, 1971), reversing a district court decision on which McKnight relies. Denial of the petition without an evidentiary hearing was not error, since there are no disputed facts.
Affirmed.
