Description
Appellant seeks reversal of the district court's order dismissing his petition for the writ of habeas corpus. We affirm. Appellant is a Texas convict who was sentenced to serve four seven-year concurrent terms, having been convicted of four separate
offenses of burglary and theft upon his plea of guilty. The sentences were to date from November 13, 1963. While appellant
was awaiting to be taken into custody by agents of the Texas Department of Corrections, he was turned over to a U.S. Marshal
which led to his incarceration in the Federal Penitentiary in Kansas. After serving his sentence, appellant was delivered
to the State authorities who had a detainer on him. Appellant is now serving the balance of his state sentence in the state
penitentiary.
