In re: Stanley E. Cortinez ‍​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​‌​‌​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​​‌​​‌​​​​‌​​‌‌‌​​​​​‌​​‌​‌‌‌​​​​‌‌‌​​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌​‌‌​​​‍applying for writs of certiorari and mandamus.

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.
