Publisher Description
Charles Skinner, whose conviction of murder was affirmed by this court in 1947 on writ of error, (People v. Skinner, 397 Ill. 273,) now appeals from an order dismissing a petition for a writ of habeas corpus. His contentions are: (1) that the incompetency of two counsel appointed to defend him, and the lunacy of one such counsel, denied him a fair and impartial trial; (2) that a prison rule deprived him of his constitutional right to a timely review; (3) that improper evidence was admitted; and (4) that the murder indictment was defective.
