Opinion

No. 28621 Summary Calendar.

August 7, 1970.

Merrill L. Hartman (Court appointed), Tobolowsky, Schlinger Blalock, Dallas, Tex., for defendant-appellant; Harold E. Peters, in pro. per.

Seagal V. Wheatley, U.S. Atty., John G. Truelson, Asst. U.S. Atty., San Antonio, Tex., Victor K. Sizemore, Asst. U.S. Atty., El Paso, Tex., for plaintiff-appellee.

Before GEWIN, GOLDBERG and DYER, Circuit Judges.


Peters complains that the sentence which the trial court imposed in 1965 did not give him credit for his pre-sentence jail time. He concedes that Bryans v. Blackwell, 5 Cir. 1967, 387 F.2d 764, forecloses relief and asks us to overturn it. We decline to do so.

18 U.S.C.A. § 3568.

Pursuant to our Rule 18 this case is decided without oral argument.

Affirmed.
