Proceeding between Michael C. Jones and Nathan Mayo, as Custodian of the Florida State Prison, and L. F. Chapman, as Superintendent of the Florida State Prison, wherein Michael C. Jones brings error to review an order of the circuit court holding his petition for a writ of habeas corpus insufficient and denying the writ.
Affirmed.
COUNSEL Michael C. Jones, in pro. per.
George Couper Gibbs, Atty. Gen., and Thomas J. Ellis, Asst. Atty. Gen., for defendants in error.
Since his conviction of the offense of robbery under Chapter 13792, Acts of 1929, the Petitioner has been before this Court three times. See Jones v. State, 122 Fla. 307, 165 So. 33; Jones v. Mayo, 126 Fla. 523, 171 So. 312; Jones v. State, 130 Fla. 645, 178 So. 404. He now appears here on writ of error to the Circuit Court of Union County to review the order of that Court holding his petition for writ of habeas corpus insufficient and denying the writ.
The record has been examined and the assignments of error are found to be without merit.
So the judgment is affirmed.
So ordered.
BROWN and CHAPMAN, JJ., not participating as authorized by Section 4687, Compiled General Laws of 1927, and Rule 21-A of the Rules of this Court.
