Dear M_r. Hines:

time. l was later contacted by State Counsel for offenders I gave them this same information
Yours very truly,

l\/l'y representation entailed representing you throughout your trial along with Mr.* House.

Have you forgotten that l was the one that made sure the jury found out about the
Decedent attacking yeu. Hope'l"ully your questions have been lans\\/ered, Good lsuck

we Signed the right to appeal and notice of appeal was given
by me.. Again thank you for your time and efforts as well as

Dear Mr. Hines,
I spoke with Mr. House and Mr. Bonner. They no longer have any connection with your case as
the trial phase has ended. I recommend that you contact the court of conviction, inform them of
your desire to appeal, and request that they appoint you appellate counsel.
Due to the time that has passed, you may need t_o file a writ for an out of time appeal
Our office cannot assist you with your appeal;
Thank , 4

ln reality this presumptively ind¥@nt Applicant did not
receive any practical assistance of counsel in protecting and
preserving his appellant rights. Thus he has been denied effective
assistance of counsel on appeal in violation of his due process
rights under the Fourteenth Amendment and his Due Course Rights
under Art.l, § 10 of our own Bill of Rights.*Therefore; Applicant
is entitled to an out-of-time Appeal; and that specific relief
is requested,respectfully.
