Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit January 7, 1970, 17431 (Roy Jacey Evans v. Ward Lane, Indiana State Prison, Succeeded by Russell Lash Since This Cause Was Initiated)

KERNER, Circuit Judge.

Petitioner appeals from the denial, without a hearing, of his Habeas Corpus Petition, brought pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. On appeal petitioner asserts two independent grounds for relief. First, it is urged that the case be remanded for a hearing to determine whether the petitioner knowingly and intelligently waived his constitutional right to a full direct appeal.
