1Opinion of the Court

TILLMAN PEARSON, Judge.

The petitioner was tried and adjudged guilty of robbery, and of assault with intent to commit first degree murder with a firearm. He did not appeal but later collaterally attacked the judgments under *354Criminal Procedure Rule No. 1, F.S.A. ch. 924 Appendix. He contended that he desired to appeal, but that he was prevented from doing so through insolvency, his personal inability, and the refusal of the public defender to prosecute an appeal on his behalf. The trial court denied defendant’s motion for relief.
