Description
This is an appeal in a postconviction proceeding under K.S.A. 60-1507 wherein the trial court denied relief without an evidentiary hearing. On February 20, 1970, petitioner, Preston Collins, represented by counsel, pleaded guilty to escaping from the state penitentiary without breaking as defined in K.S.A. 21-734 (Repealed, L. 1969, Ch. 180, now 1973 Supp. 21-3810) and was sentenced to a term of three years to commence at the expiration of any sentence he was then serving. Petitioner was advised of his right to appeal, of his right to have counsel appointed for such appeal, and his right to have a transcript furnished him for such appeal. No appeal was taken. On January 12, 1972, petitioner filed the instant motion alleging two grounds for relief. The trial court examined the motion and the files and records in petitioner's case and determined that the facts alleged did not support the grounds upon which petitioner claimed he was unlawfully held in custody. On appeal petitioner specifies error in the denial of his motion as follows: 1. The imposition of both a three-year sentence and administrative sanctions (loss of good time) constituted double jeopardy. This point was raised and disposed of as unmeritorious in State v. Williams, 208 Kan. 480, 493 P.2d 258:
