LEGGROAN v. TURNER

Supreme Court of Utah.
May 17, 1972

CALLISTER, Chief Justice:

Plaintiff appeals from an order of the district court denying her petition for a writ of habeas corpus. Plaintiff was convicted of second-degree murder and appealed to this court, wherein she raised the identical issue that she currently asserts in her petition. She may not under the guise of this petition have a second opportunity to litigate the issue. The order of the trial court is affirmed.
