No. 85-4352.

788 F.2d 1416 (1986)

Shroma H. LANG, Petitioner-Appellant, v. William L. CALLAHAN, et al., Respondents-Appellees.

United States Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit.

Decided May 8, 1986.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Shroma H. Lang, pro se.

Michael P. Lynch, Asst. Atty. Gen., Dept. of Corrections, Olympia, Wash., for respondents-appellees.

Before: DUNIWAY, WRIGHT and ANDERSON, Circuit Judges.


EUGENE A. WRIGHT, Circuit Judge:

Pro se appellant Shroma H. Lang, a black state prisoner, raises two issues in this appeal from the denial of his habeas corpus petition:

1) Was defense counsel constitutionally ineffective in stipulating to the admissibility of a tape-recording and transcript of a statement made by the victim? and 2) Was Lang denied due process or equal protection by allegedly racial remarks made by the sentencing judge?
