In Re Application for A Writ of Habeas Corpus of Robert Jaime

The petitioner is seeking a writ of habeas corpus. He was convicted of second degree assault on December 6, 1949, and, on the following January 25th, an order granting probation for three years, with sentence deferred for that period, was entered. A year later, he was committed to the Wyoming State Industrial School for a felonious assault committed in Wyoming. He returned to Yakima County, Washington, in 1952, at which time his probation was reinstated. In March, 1952, he was arrested for disorderly conduct in Wapato, Washington. In July, 1952, he was incarcerated in the county jail for assault and released in August. On October 15, 1953, he had a hearing in the superior court for the revocation of the order of probation. On this occasion, his attorney was not the one who had represented him at the time of his original conviction in 1949.
