Head Matter:
STATE of Louisiana ex rel. Claude Woods and Joseph WOODS v. Ross MAGGIO, Jr., Warden, Louisiana State Penitentiary.
No. 60596.
Supreme Court of Louisiana.
Nov. 11, 1977.

Opinion:
In re: Claude Woods and Joseph Woods applying for writ of habeas corpus. Writ denied. The transcribed contemporaneous colloquy of March 22, 1972 shows that the defendants' guilty pleas were voluntarily made, with full awareness of the consequences., The allegations to the contrary, and of inadequate assistance of counsel, do not, under the circumstances, show that the petitioners are entitled to an evi-dentiary hearing.
