FERGUSON, District Judge.
Petitioner, a California state prisoner, seeks a writ of habeas corpus under 28 U.S.C. § 2254, challenging his present incarceration in Folsom Prison. He was convicted of first degree robbery (California Penal Code § 211) in Los Angeles Superior Court on November 21, 1958, and sentenced to serve an indeterminate sentence of from five years to life. It is conceded that prior to bringing this action the petitioner fully exhausted his state remedies on the issues presented here.
