Morrison v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided April 19, 1966 · Barkdull, Hendry, Pearson
185 So. 2d 193; 1966 Fla. App. LEXIS 5243 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Morrison v. State

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

Appellant was tried and convicted of breaking and entering a store building with intent to commit grand larceny. Subsequently, he filed a motion for relief pursuant to Rule No. I, Florida Rules of Criminal Procedure, F.S.A. ch. 924 Appendix. The sole allegation of this motion was that he was inadequately represented by the Public Defender who refused to file a motion for new trial and an appeal.

Inasmuch as the record conclusively refutes the allegation, the trial judge correctly denied the motion without a hearing thereon.

Affirmed.
