Ellhamer v. Wilson
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit · Decided July 7, 1971
445 F.2d 856 (Federal Reporter, Second Series)

Ellhamer v. Wilson

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM:

The orders granting writs of habeas corpus to Ellhamer and Hinnington, California state prisoners, are reversed. The district court will enter orders denying the writs.

We are asked to overrule our cases which have upheld California in not providing counsel on parole revocation hearings. This we decline to do. See High Pine v. Montana, 9 Cir., 439 F.2d 1093; Lincoln v. California Adult Authority, 9 Cir., 435 F.2d 133; Mead v. California Adult Authority, 9 Cir., 415 F.2d 767.
