David Lawrence v. Louie L. Wainwright, Director, Division of Corrections, State of Florida

Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit

Decided April 6, 1970No. 26767PublishedCited by 4 opinions

1Per curiam

This appeal, filed sixty three days after the denial of the petition for writ of habeas corpus, is dismissed.1 See Allen v. Wainwright, 5 Cir., 1967, 384 F.2d 745. There is no showing that the failure ,to file the notice of appeal within the extended time period of 30 days provided under Rule 4(a), Federal Rules Appellate Procedure, was attributable to anyone other than appellant. We thus deem the case of Fallen v. United States, 1964, 378 U.S. 139, 84 S.Ct. 1689, 12 L.Ed.2d 760, to be inapplicable.

As ,to appellant’s right to file an additional petition for writ on the same or other grounds…
