He was adjudged guilty and sentenced to serve a term in the state penitentiary. Subsequently he filed pro se a petition for a writ of habeas corpus. In his petition he alleged that after
“The petitioner’s lawyer advised the petitioner that the case had been reset for the day of December 29, . 1965.’.’
The petition was denied without a hearing. Accepting the allegations of the petition in the most .favorable light, Johnson v. State,
The petition for writ of habeas corpus was filed in the same judicial district in which plaintiff was adjudged guilty- and sentenced. The district court may take judicial notice of its own records, in the case before it. State v. Morris,
In denying the writ the district court judicially noted that the plaintiff had counsel of his own choosing at all court proceedings from the time of his first appearance in the justice court; that his wife' was notified of his arrest the same day it occurred; and that plaintiff was able to furnish bond on all occasions required.
Plaintiff’s plea of guilty having been entered with the advice of counsel, it does not appear that he was in any way injured or prejudiced by any admissions which he may have made during the course of custodial interrogation. In Commonwealth of Pennsylvania ex rel. Herman v. Claudy, Warden,
Order affirmed.
