Roy Lee POE, Plaintiff, v. John W. TURNER, Warden, Utah State Prison, Defendant.

CALLISTER, Chief Justice.

Plaintiff petitions this court for a writ of habeas corpus. Plaintiff has been convicted twice of murder in the first degree; after his first trial, he appealed to this court, and this court reversed and remanded the case for a new trial. Upon retrial, plaintiff was again convicted of murder in the first degree and sentenced to life imprisonment; he appealed to this court, where he raised the identical issues currently asserted in his petition. Plaintiff may not under the guise of this petition have a second opportunity to litigate the same issues. The petition is denied.
