Earl Faircloth, Atty. Gen., T. T. Turnbull, Asst. Atty. Gen., Tallahassee, Fla., for appellee.

On conflicting testimony the district court, in a hearing upon a petition for habeas corpus seeking relief from a state court conviction, held that there was no denial of any Constitutional right of the appellant. The Escobedo [Escobedo v. People of State of Illinois, 378 U.S. 478, 84 S.Ct. 1758, 12 L.Ed.2d 977] and Miranda [Miranda v.

¶2

Affirmed.
