Description
Harvey Pulver (petitioner-appellant) pled guilty to the charge of Second Degree Murder on January 4, 1965, and received an
indeterminate sentence, not to exceed 75 years. While serving his sentence in the Idaho State Penitentiary, Pulver filed a
Motion for Post-Conviction Relief alleging that he was being held in unlawful custody since: (1) His plea of guilty was entered under duress (threat of hanging, threat of being prosecuted as a recidivist, and for other
crimes); (2) He was misrepresented and inadequately represented by counsel; (3) He was denied his right to appeal; (4) The
sentence imposed upon him was illegal (75 years); (5) He was possessed of facts which would have proved his innocence, but
not brought forth on advice of counsel.
