1

The district court orders which are sought to be overturned here are affirmed.

The defendant is serving a state sentence after conviction of murder. No state appeal was taken.

3

There was no exhaustion or even a sustained pursuit of state remedies. The record belies his contention that access to the state courts was frustrated.
