Description
This is an appeal by Henry Clay Monts, petitioner-appellant, from an order of the United States District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee denying his petition for a writ of habeas corpus. Monts was convicted with Johnnie West on a charge of first degree murder in the perpetration of a burglary for the killing of police officer, Frank Bruno. The history of the case is stated in our opinion in West v. Henderson, Warden, 6 Cir., 409 F.2d 95, decided today. The appellant makes two assignments of error: (1) His confession should not have been admitted into evidence because the police failed to advise him of his constitutional right, during interrogation, to have a lawyer, and (2) the district judge erred in holding that appellant failed to show that any of the circumstances set forth in paragraphs numbered (1) to (7) of Section 2254(d) Title 28, U.S.C. existed.
