Robert A. Jones v. C. J. Fitzharris, Superintendent, Correctional Training Facility of the California Department of Corrections
Opinion
The district court order denying habeas corpus relief is affirmed.
Appellant claims his guilty plea was made in the mistaken belief that he was pleading guilty to a misdemeanor, not a felony. The first trouble with this is that the record before us shows the contention simply isn’t so.
Secondly, on Boykin v. Alabama, 395 U.S. 238, 89 S.Ct. 1709, 23 L.Ed.2d 274, points, this court ruled in Moss v. Craven, 9 Cir., 427 F.2d 139 that Boykin is not retroactive.
