487 So. 2d 1391 | Ala. Crim. App. | 1986
Newton appeals the summary dismissal of his petition for writ of habeas corpus, which was dismissed upon the State's motion. In his petition, Newton alleged that he had been denied procedural due process in a prison disciplinary proceeding which resulted in the loss of thirty days' store and visitation privileges and in the imposition of twenty-one days of disciplinary segregation.
We express no opinion on the merits of Newton's claim,1 since we conclude that his petition was properly dismissed because it was not verified by oath as required by Alabama Code §
AFFIRMED.
All Judges concur.
