1Opinion of the Court

HILL, Circuit Judge.

Appellant William Pope, a prisoner in the Utah State Prison, petitioned the United States District Court of Utah for a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. The trial judge dismissed the petition without a hearing upon the grounds that further proceedings were not warranted. Pope herein appeals from that order dismissing his petition and principally contends that under 28 U.S.C. §§ 2243 and 2254, he must be afforded a full evidentiary hearing on the issues of fact raised in his petition for a writ of habeas corpus.
