Opinion

No. 206, Misc. Long v. District Court of Iowa, in and for Lee County. Petitioner pro se. Lawrence F. Scalise, Attorney General of Iowa, and Don R. Bennett, Assistant Attorney General, for respondent. [MAJORITY] Sup. Ct. Iowa. Motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis granted. Petition for writ of certiorari is also granted limited to the following question: “Did the refusal of the state trial court to provide a transcript for the petitioner, solely because state law made no provision for furnishing of a transcript without the payment of a fee, deny the petitioner the opportunity to obtain full appellate review of the trial court’s denial of the petitioner’s petition for a writ of habeas corpus and thereby deprive the petitioner of the equal protection of the laws?” Casé transferred to appellate docket.
