        "text": "OPINION\nMONTOYA, Justice.\nLyle Moody, petitioner-appellee, had been placed on parole on March 31, 1971, from the Penitentiary of New Mexico, where he had been committed to serve ten to fifty years for the crime of armed robbery, when he was convicted of a federal offense on April 18, 1975, (inter-state transportation of forged securities), and was sentenced to be imprisoned for two years at La Tuna Correctional Institution in Anthony, Texas. The day after petitioner had begun to serve this, intervening sentence, a parole violator \u201cretake\u201d warrant was served on petitioner and the La Tuna officials. At the preliminary \u201cprobable cause\u201d hearing, held at La Tuna on July 16, 1975, probable cause to believe that a parole violation had occurred was found to exist, and petitioner continued to be held for return to New Mexico authorities under the retake warrant. No final parole revocation hearing was held within six months from the date of the preliminary-hearing, and the final hearing has not been held up to this time.\nPetitioner filed a writ of habeas corpus in Santa Fe County District Court to dismiss the parole violator\u2019s warrant, claiming that his due process rights had been violated by the failure to hold a final revocation hearing within six months of the preliminary hearing. The district court, apparently relying on the \u201creasonable time\u201d requirement of Morrissey v. Brewer, 408 U. S. 471, 92 S.Ct. 2593, 33 L.Ed.2d 484 (1972), granted the writ of habeas corpus.\nThe granting of the writ of habeas corpus was error.\nMorrissey v. Brewer, supra, does not require a finding of a denial of due process here. Morrissey requires that \u201c[t]he revocation hearing must be tendered within a reasonable time after the parolee is taken into custody.\u201d (Emphasis added.) 408 U.S. at 488, 92 S.Ct. at 2603-04, 33 L.Ed.2d at 498. In the instant case, petitioner cannot even be taken into custody by the New Mexico authorities until he is released by the federal authorities. Therefore, the constitutionally requisite \u201creasonable time\u201d will not even have begun to run until petitioner has served his intervening federal sentence.\nUnder these circumstances, a claim -of denial of due process is without merit. The petitioner has not alleged or shown any prejudice resulting from the delay of the final parole revocation hearing and it is undisputed that the federal conviction was a basis for the parole revocation. Any deferral of the parole revocation hearing following service of an intervening sentence is without prejudice where the parole violation was established by an intervening conviction. See Pigg v. Rodriguez, Civil No. 75-116 (D.N.M., filed July 28, 1975).\nFor the reasons stated, the Santa Fe County District Court\u2019s order granting habeas corpus relief to petitioner is reversed.\nIT IS SO ORDERED.\nM-cMANUS and SOSA, JJ., concur.",
