Description
Per Curiam This appeal is from a denial of habeas corpus to a prisoner of the State of Texas. The respondent did not question that the petitioner has exhausted the remedies available in the State courts. See 28 U.S.C.A. § 2254. The petitioner is presently confined under a sentence of life imprisonment upon a judgment of the District Court of Tarrant County, Texas, finding him guilty of the offense of robbery with fire arms and with having been previously convicted of an offense to which the penalty of death is affixed as an alternative punishment1 The evidence showed that on April 18, 1947, the petitioner had been convicted in the District Court of Archer County, Texas, of murder with malice aforethought and had been sentenced to the State Penitentiary for sixty (60) years. In his brief on this appeal, petitioner insists on seven alleged errors. (1) Illegal extradition from Brazil.
