No. 51191 Precedential Processed

State ex rel. Youngblood v. Henderson

Louisiana Supreme Court · Filed February 17, 1971 · 243 So. 2d 818

Opinion text

The facts at the evidentiary hearing disprove petitioner’s allegation that no counsel was appointed to represent and advise him prior to his plea of guilty. Petitioner further has not proved he was not fully advised of his rights prior to his plea, and the petitioner does not allege that he was not in fact guilty, as indicated by the evidence. Jones v. Smith, 311 F.2d 475 (5 Cir., 1969) is factually distinguishable.
