here, the evidence sufficient to support 'probable cause' was not procured as a result of the allegedly illegal activity and, thus, could not be said to be the fruit of a poisoned tree.

We point out nonetheless that in United States v.

United States v.

PER CURIAM.

The district court denied habeas corpus relief to appellant Kessinger, a prisoner in the Oklahoma penitentiary, on the ground that he had not exhausted his state remedies as required by 28 U.S.C. § 2254. The record shows that appellant has appealed to the Oklahoma Court of Criminal Appeals from his state conviction and that the appeal is pending and undecided. In such circumstances, he has not exhausted his available remedies-in state courts. Lee v. State of Kansas, 10 Cir., 346 F.2d 48. The various claims that he makes can and should be decided in the Oklahoma courts. Nothing is presented to show that the state remedy is ineffective or inadequate.

Affirmed.
