In re Belmontez CA2/2
Paul Belmontez was found suitable for parole, but later had his suitability finding rescinded. He filed a petition for writ of habeas corpus challenging the rescission, alleging that the Board of Parole Hearings (BPH) had relied on incorrect information. This court issued an order to show cause why the petition should not be granted, and appointed counsel for Belmontez. After considering the petition, the return, the traverse and counsel’s argument, we conclude there was sufficient additional evidence to support the BPH’s decision and so discharge the order to show cause and deny the petition.
