OPINION OF THE COURT BY

MARUMOTO, J.

Petitioner Jesse James Bates comes here on Ms second petition for habeas corpus based on a denial by the circuit court of his release on bail. He was here previously when he was under indictment for the first degree murder of Herman Harper Marfil in Criminal No. 41618 of the first circuit court and the circuit court denied his release on bail without holding any evidentiary hearing although he sought one. On that occasion we entered an order direct ing the circuit court to accord him an evidentiary hearing. Bates v. Hawkins, 52 Haw. 463, 478 P.2d 840 (1970).
