Indiana Supreme Court, 1958

Morgan v. People

Morgan v. People
Indiana Supreme Court · Decided March 19, 1958
238 Ind. 699; 148 N.E.2d 563; 1958 Ind. LEXIS 281

Morgan v. People

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

Robert James Morgan, a prisoner at the Indiana State Prison, pro se, in forma pauperis, has attempted to file what he designates as a Petition for a Writ of Certiorari whereby he seeks to review a judgment of the Gibson Circuit Court which denied relief on his Petition for a Writ of Error Coram Nobis. It is in fact an attempt to appeal from said judgment.

The papers here do not constitute either a transcript of the record of the trial court, or an assignment of errors. Both are necessary to perfect an appeal. Rule 2-2. See also Rule 2-40. We have no jurisdiction of this matter.

Leave to file this pretended appeal is denied for want of jurisdiction.

Note.—Reported in 148 N. E. 2d 563.
