693 F.2d 59 (1982)

Dale Louis CLARK a/k/a Bucky Clark, Appellant, v. Herman SOLEM, Warden, Individually and in his official capacity, and Richard Rist, Associate Warden, Individually and in his official capacity, South Dakota State Penitentiary, Appellees.

United States Court of Appeals, Eighth Circuit.

Decided November 23, 1982.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Darla Pollman Rogers, Meyer Law Office, Onida, S.D., for appellant.

Mark Smith, Asst. Atty. Gen., Pierre, S.D., for appellees.

Before LAY, Chief Judge, FLOYD R. GIBSON, Senior Circuit Judge, and BRIGHT, Circuit Judge.


BRIGHT, Circuit Judge.

Dale Louis Clark appeals the district court's1 order denying his petition for a writ of habeas corpus. Clark contends that he made an unknowing and involuntary guilty plea to a burglary charge, and that the state trial judge unconstitutionally imposed upon him a prison sentence longer than that received by his codefendant. We affirm the judgment of the district court.
