Fields v. State

Petitioner, an inmate of Kilby State Penitentiary located in Montgomery County, appeals from the summary denial of his petition for writ of habeas corpus.

Petitioner alleges in his petition that his guilty plea was coerced and involuntary, that he was physically threatened, assaulted and beaten while incarcerated in the Lauderdale County Jail following his arrest and that he was denied proper medical attention while incarcerated in the county jail.

A circuit judge of Montgomery County denied the writ without requiring that any return be made. Alabama Code 1975, Section15-21-8.
