In Re Blairs Petition

1 Leonard Blair, No. 33959, alias Chester Brown, is presently confined in Clinton Prison, Dannemora, New York. Prior to conviction in New York, he served two prison sentences in Oklahoma. The one complained of in this case was by reason of a plea of guilty entered in the district court of Pottawatomie County, Oklahoma, on September 29, 1934, to a charge of robbery with firearms, and where he was sentenced to twenty years confinement in the State Penitentiary at McAlester. The sentence has been served and satisfied. It appears that the length of the term petitioner may be required to serve in New York will depend upon whether or not the judgment entered by the district court of Pottawatomie County, Oklahoma, was void, even though the Oklahoma sentence has been satisfied. That is the contention of petitioner.
