Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit April 9, 1973, 72-3740 (Lonnie Keith Lee v. Washington Parish, State of Louisiana)

PER CURIAM:

The appellant, who is a prisoner of the State of Louisiana, filed a federal habeas corpus petition in the district court challenging the validity of his conviction for attempted murder. In his petition the appellant conceded that he had not exhausted his remedies within the Louisiana courts, but argued that his attempts to comply with 28 U.S.C. § 2254 had been thwarted.
