Ernest Daniels v. Frank Blackburn, Warden, Louisiana State Penitentiary and William Guste, Jr., Attorney General, State of Louisiana
Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit
Decided June 20, 1985No. 84-3705PublishedCited by 27 opinions
1Per curiam
Ernest Daniels is serving a 99-year sentence for armed robbery in the Louisiana State Penitentiary at Angola. In this case, he seeks a writ of habeas corpus under 28 U.S.C. § 2254. In 1982, we affirmed the dismissal of a prior petition for federal habeas relief. See Daniels v. Maggio, 669 F.2d 1075 (5th Cir.), cert. denied, 459 U.S. 968, 103 S.Ct. 295, 74 L.Ed.2d 278 (1982). The district court dismissed the instant petition for abuse of the writ because Daniels did not offer a valid explanation for having failed to raise his current claims in his prior habeas case. Again, we affirm.
