Opinion:
PER CURIAM:
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.
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.
