Stout v. United States

United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit
Oct 6, 1967
383 F.2d 448 (5th Cir. 1967)

Opinion

No. 24531.

October 6, 1967.

Clifton S. Stout, pro se.

J.V. Eskenazi, Asst. U.S. Atty., William A. Meadows, Jr., U.S. Atty., Miami, Fla., for appellee.

Before TUTTLE, GEWIN and AINSWORTH, Circuit Judges.


Appellant's sole allegation is that his pleas of guilty to five charges of interstate transportation of forged securities, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 2314, were not understandingly and voluntarily made. This contention is conclusively refuted by the files and records of the case. Therefore, motion to vacate judgment was properly denied. 28 U.S.C. § 2255. Helpman v. United States, 5 Cir., 1967, 373 F.2d 401; Clark v. United States, 5 Cir., 1966, 367 F.2d 378; Barrett v. United States, 5 Cir., 1962, 302 F.2d 151.

Affirmed.
