Irvin v. Dowd

''Irvin v. Dowd'', , was a United States Supreme Court case. It involved an escaped convict's (Leslie Irvin) denial of appeal. The convict sought a federal writ of habeas corpus.
''Irvin v. Dowd'' was one of the first of many cases to underscore the "swing vote" role played by Justice Potter Stewart, who recently had come to the Supreme Court and was caught between the two warring camps of justices—the liberal camp of Justices Earl Warren and William Brennan, and the conservative one headed by Justice Felix Frankfurter. Stewart was in the ideological center of the Supreme Court at the time.
==Factual background==
The ''Irvin'' case centered on a series of murders in Evansville, Indiana, from 1954 to early 1955.〔 In April 1955, local police arrested Leslie Irvin, announcing he had confessed to the crimes.〔.〕 Irvin's lawyers sought a change of venue for the case to avoid local biases, but they lost; a third of the jury was seated despite statements showing they had prejudged the defendant to be guilty.〔 Irvin was sentenced to death in January 1956; he soon escaped from jail, leaving a note maintaining his innocence and alleging police misconduct and public prejudging of his case, as well as asking his lawyer to appeal.〔.〕 Irvin was soon recaptured, and the Indiana Supreme Court would reject his motions for appeals.〔.〕
Irvin's lawyer came to the Supreme Court asking for a writ of habeas corpus.〔
