Description
Appellant in February 1960 entered a plea of guilty to a violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1708, and was sentenced to the custody of the Attorney General for a period of five years. Six months of the sentence were to be in confinement in a jail-type institution, and this to be followed by a four and one-half year probation period. This sentencing was under 18 U.S.C. § 3651. Appellant was confined until August 11, 1960, and was then released on probation. He was on probation for about nineteen and one-half months, and then, after a hearing, the probation was revoked and appellant was sentenced to four and one-half years of confinement. The trial court denied appellants petition for a writ of habeas corpus and he has taken this appeal. The trial judge in his order stated that he had examined all papers filed by appellant and found that the petition on its face showed appellant to be in lawful custody. No hearing was held.
