He files his petition for a writ of prohibition asking to be discharged under Rule 1-4D. The charges were filed against the relator on December 2, 1964. Rule 1-4D became effective on July 1, 1965. He claims that the above rule is applicable to his case pending at the time of the effective date of the rule.
