Description
The petitioner alleges a denial of assistance of counsel at the trial which resulted in his conviction. The petition reveals that at the time of his arraignment the trial judge inquired of the petitioner whether he was ready for arraignment and whether he desired the services of an attorney. The petitioner advised the Court that he was ready for arraignment "and did not want a lawyer." The petitioner also alleges that "had he been advised of his right to counsel his answer would still have been no * * *." On March 26, 1963, Mitchell filed a petition for a writ of habeas corpus in the Circuit Court of Bay County. By order entered April 11, 1963, the Circuit Judge denied the writ. To his order he attached a certified copy of the courts minutes which revealed that the petitioner advised the court that he was ready for arraignment and upon inquiry by the judge stated that he did not want the assistance of a lawyer. There was no appeal from this order.
