California Supreme Court May 21, 1964, Crim. No. 7496 (In re Jones)

PETERS, J.

Petitioner, Robert Allen Jones, was committed to the California Rehabilitation Facility for treatment as a narcotic addict. In this habeas corpus proceeding, filed in propria persona, he attacks that commitment for failure to comply with the statutory procedural safeguards set forth in section 6451 of the Penal Code.1 There is merit to this contention.
