State v. Thomas

Opinion

190 So.2d 909 (1966)
249 La. 742

STATE of Louisiana
v.
Willie Lee THOMAS.

No. 48431.

Supreme Court of Louisiana.

October 20, 1966.

The application is denied. It is not our understanding that Gideon v. Wainwright, 372 U.S. 335, 83 S.Ct. 792, 9 L.Ed.2d 799, applies to misdemeanor cases. Hence, the trial judge correctly denied the application for habeas corpus.
