Description
DUNIWAY, Circuit Judge: Appeal from denial of a petition for a writ of . The petition was filed in the United States District Court for the Western
District of Washington. That court concluded that it lacked jurisdiction. There was no hearing. The pertinent allegations
of the petition are these: In 1962, Ashley was sentenced in the Superior Court of King County, Washington, to a term of 25
years in Washington State prison. On July 4, 1964, he "allegedly" escaped. On January 23, 1965, he was arrested in Florida
on a Florida felony charge and the State of Washington was notified. Ashley waived extradition, but Washington did not seek
it. Ashley was tried and convicted in Florida, and sentenced to three years in Florida State Prison, where he now is. Washington
has "lodged a detainer against him (warrant No. 52244)." While in the Florida prison, Ashley has unsuccessfully sought, in
the Washington courts, a prompt trial "on the said escape charge (warrant #52244)."
