ORDER

This case has been referred to a panel of the court pursuant to Rule 9(a), Rules of the Sixth Circuit. Upon examination of the record and the briefs, this panel agrees unanimously that oral argument is not needed. Fed. R. App. P. 34(a).

Petitioner, a pro se Kentucky state prisoner, appeals the district court's denial of his 42 U.S.C. § 2254 petition for writ of habeas corpus. Petitioner sought to attack a 1975 conviction alleging involuntariness of his guilty pleas. Petitioner has adequately exhausted state court remedies. We conclude the district court properly denied the petition.

An examination of the record indicates that petitioner entered a voluntary and intelligent plea. See Brady v. United States, 397 U.S. 742 (1970); Boykin v. Alabama, 395 U.S. 238 (1969); Berry v. Mintzes, 726 F.2d 1142 (6th Cir.), cert. denied, 467 U.S. 1245 (1984).

Accordingly, the district court's judgment is hereby affirmed pursuant to Rule 9(b) (5), Rules of the Sixth Circuit.
