1 Ohio St. 2d 75 | Ohio | 1965
In this action, petitioner is attacking the validity of the parole revocation procedure. His basic contention is that the same rights of due process append to the revocation of a parole as exist in relation to the original conviction. The same questions raised by petitioner were raised and thoroughly considered in In re Varner, 166 Ohio St. 340, and found not reviewable in habeas corpus.
Petitioner had a hearing before the parole board when he was returned to the penitentiary. He raises a question as to the validity of this hearing because it was before two members of the board instead of the whole board. Section 2965.05, Revised Code, reads in part as follows:
“* * * Any investigation, inquiry, or hearing which the commission may make or hold, may be made or held by or before any member designated by the commission for this purpose, and every finding, recommendation, or order made by a
Thus, under the provisions of this section, a hearing before two members of the board was proper.
Petitioner’s contentions are not well taken.
Petitioner remanded to custody.
