1Opinion of the Court

VAN GRAAFEILAND, Circuit Judge:

This is an appeal from an order of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (Conner, J.), 613 F.Supp. 302, denying appellant’s petition for a writ of habeas corpus. Appellant seeks to vacate a 1978 judgment of the New York State Supreme Court convicting him of Intentional Murder and Felony Murder. He contends that the evidence introduced at his trial was insufficient to sustain his conviction and that he was deprived of a fair trial by improper conduct on the part of the trial judge. We affirm the dismissal of the petition.
