BRETT, Judge.

This is an original proceeding for writ of habeas corpus brought by John E. Burke, pro se, wherein he alleges he is illegally restrained of his liberty by the Warden of the Oklahoma State Penitentiary, by virtue of a judgment and sentence of the District Court of Haskell County, Oklahoma, of twenty five years upon his conviction by a jury on a charge of robbery in the first degree. He alleges the judgment and sentence to be void for identically the same reasons previously presented to this Court on a petition for writ of habeas corpus. In re Burke, Okl.Cr., 324 P.2d 285.
