OPINION

RUSSELL, Judge.

Albert Phillips appeals from the dismissal without an evidentiary hearing of his petition for post-conviction relief. The petition sets out that in May, 1964, the defendant was convicted of rape and sentenced to ninety-nine years in the penitentiary. It states that he pled not guilty and was represented by employed counsel. The petition sets out that a prior habeas corpus petition had been heard and dismissed, and upon appeal to our Supreme Court the dismissal affirmed.
