August 29, 1939.
Upon Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus.
Habeas corpus proceeding by James W. O'Brien against E.B. Swope, Warden, United States Penitentiary, McNeil Island, Washington, for release from imprisonment.
Application denied.
James W. O'Brien, in pro. per.
Petitioner asks for a writ of habeas corpus. He alleges that he is imprisoned in the United States Penitentiary at McNeil Island, Washington, by reason of a judgment and commitment issued by the United States District Court of Oregon. He alleges that he plead guilty but claims that he was denied assistance of counsel. A prior application for a writ of habeas corpus was made to the United States District Court for the Western District of Washington and denied.
The application to the Senior Circuit Judge for a writ of habeas corpus is denied. See United States ex rel. Bernstein v. Hill, 3 Cir., 71 F.2d 159.
