Description
BROWN, Chief Judge: Appellant, who is presently serving a life sentence imposed on December 12, 1958, for murder, seeks habeas relief from that conviction and sentence. The Federal District Judge, without holding an evidentiary hearing but on the basis of the State Court transcript, denied the relief sought. Appellant here contends that his conviction was constitutionally void because an oral confession as a matter of law was not voluntary and, in any event, it was introduced against him at trial without proper procedural safeguards being taken to determine the voluntariness of that confession.1 We affirm but not for the reasons given by the Court below and certainly not by ruling on the intrinsic merits of these claims.
