Description
Kenneth Ricardo Johnson, the petitioner, after failing in the Court of Special Appeals (Johnson v. State, 21 Md. App. 214, 319 A.2d 581(1974)) to obtain a reversal of his burglary conviction by the Circuit Court for Prince Georges County (Ralph W. Powers, J.), was granted his request for certiorari by this Court so that we could review the prison sentence he received for that criminal act. The scope of this Courts review, as directed in the writ, is "limited solely to the question [of] whether the [trial] court denied . . . [Johnson] due process by sentencing him to a longer term based upon his not admitting guilt but instead pleading not guilty and testifying in his own behalf."
