Appeal from the United States District Court for the
Northern District of Texas
USDC No. 4:95-CV-311-A
_________________________________________________________________
December 3, 1996
Before GARWOOD, JOLLY, and DENNIS, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
We have considered the claims of the petitioner-appellant.
Our review of the record and the papers before us make it clear
that the district court did not err in concluding that Williams has
failed to demonstrate that his plea of guilty was involuntary.
*
Pursuant to Local Rule 47.5, the court has determined that
this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except
under the limited circumstances set forth in Local Rule 47.5.4.
Furthermore, none of the allegations relating to his counsel
ultimately demonstrate deficiency and, thus, Williams has failed to
to raise a cognizable constitutional claim of ineffective counsel.
Finally, Williams’s argument that he was denied due process because
the state failed to provide favorable evidence consisting of the
results of the blood test, the polygraph test, and the firearm’s
test is not properly before this court, because it was not raised
in the court below. In any event, this claim presents no basis
upon which to grant habeas relief to Williams.
Accordingly, the judgment of the district court dismissing
Williams’s complaint is
A F F I R M E D.1
1
Williams’s motions for an investigator, for exhibits, etc.,
and of objection to transcripts, etc., are DENIED.
