1Opinion of the Court

HUNSTEIN, Chief Justice.

Pro se appellant Lafayette Wright appeals the dismissal of his pre-trial petition for the writ of habeas corpus. Finding no error, we affirm.

It appears that Wright was arrested in November 2008 on various traffic-related charges including, inter alia, driving the wrong way on a one-way street, fleeing to elude a police officer, and violation of the habitual violator statute. He was denied bond at arraignment, and counsel was appointed to represent him. On March 27, 2009, bond was set in the amount of $5,000.
