Description
This is an original action for an alternate writ of mandate to the Parke Circuit Court. Petitioner seeks to require the trial court to hear petitioner's petition for a writ of error coram nobis filed in the trial court October 30, 1947. This matter presents another of the too frequent instances of a lay inmate of the Indiana State Prison trying to invoke the jurisdiction of this court without benefit of counsel. There is no excuse for prisoners without sufficient funds to employ their own counsel failing to comply with required formalities in presenting original actions to this court. The state has provided a Public Defender as counsel available to any with a meritorious cause for relief. Section 13-1401 et seq. Burns' 1942 Replacement (Supp.) (Acts 1945, ch. 38). He is a competent and skilled specialist in all fields of law involved in the legality of imprisonment, and can prepare original actions addressed to this court in accordance with legal requirements. This court can not take judicial notice in this original action of any petition for writ of error coram nobis which the petitioner may have filed with the Parke Circuit Court.
