Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas

Decided June 8, 1960No. 32137PublishedCited by 5 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

MORRISON, Presiding Judge.

Relator, an inmate of the Texas Prison System, makes application by writ of habeas corpus alleging that he waived a jury and plead guilty to a felony and that no attorney was appointed to represent him, as is required by paragaraph 2 of Article 10a, V.A.C.C.P. This court requested the trial court to certify such facts as were of his knowledge, as well as such records of his court as were relevant to such allegation. From the record now before us, it appears that relator did in fact plead guilty before the court and that no attorney was appointed to represent him.
