Hall v. Turner

Supreme Court of Utah

485 P.2d 1402 (Utah 1971)

Opinion

No. 12341.

June 22, 1971.

Appeal from Third District Court, Salt Lake County; Bryant H. Croft, Judge.

Ronald C. Barker, Salt Lake City, Walter R. Ellett, Murray, for plaintiff-appellant.

Vernon B. Romney, Atty. Gen., Lauren N. Beasley, David S. Young, Asst. Attys. Gen., Salt Lake City, for defendant-respondent.


Appeal from a refusal to grant a petition for habeas corpus in a robbery case, for the purported reasons 1) that defendant was coerced into pleading guilty and 2) that the so-called standards of Boykin v. Alabama, 395 U.S. 238, 89 S.Ct. 1709, 23 L.Ed.2d 274 (1968), were fractured. We believe and hold that neither contention has merit under the record here and consequently affirm the trial court.

CALLISTER, C. J., and TUCKETT, ELLETT and CROCKETT, JJ., concur.
