HABEAS CORPUS — Must Be Something To Support Petitioner's Contentions. The Court of Appeals cannot consider the contentions of the petitioner for leave to appeal from the refusal of a writ of habeas corpus where no copy of the commitment or docket entries, rulings or proceedings at the trial or relating to the charge, trial or sentence and no facts or circumstances showing any violation of fundamental or other rights are set out in or filed with the petition or contained in any supporting affidavit. p. 688
