State, Lowe v. Henderson

Supreme Court of Louisiana

259 So. 2d 918 (La. 1972)

Opinion

No. 52317.

April 6, 1972.

In re: James Edward Lowe, Thomas Barnes, Jr., Isreal Anderson McCready applying for writs of mandamus and habeas corpus.


Application denied. There is no merit in the applicant's complaint.


We have considered and rejected the relators' alternative application for habeas corpus although his first plea was for mandamus. We have done so because the trial record before us totally negates relators' allegations for habeas corpus relief of bias and prejudice on the part of court and counsel. The plea colloquy establishes a waiver of all constitutional rights in a knowing and voluntary plea with competent counsel.
