v.
STATE OF INDIANA
No. 28,893.
Supreme Court of Indiana.
Filed November 18, 1952.
Rehearing denied January 21, 1953.
*564 T. Ernest Maholm, of Indianapolis, for appellant.
J. Emmett McManamon, Attorney General, John Ready O'Connor and William T. McClain, Deputy Attorneys General, for appellee.
BOBBITT, J.
Appellant filed his verified petition for writ of error coram nobis in the Shelby Circuit Court on October 12, 1952, reciting that he was arrested on or about May 22, 1948 and imprisoned in the Shelby County Jail where he was held until June 2, 1948, when he was taken before the Judge of said court where he entered a plea of guilty to a charge of arson in the first degree; that during the time between his arrest and his plea he was neither taken before a magistrate and formally charged with an offense nor permitted the advice and assistance of counsel; and, further, that at the time he entered his plea of guilty the court made no inquiry as to whether or not he was financially able to employ counsel nor did the court advise him of his right to counsel or of his right to trial by jury and to have witnesses called in his behalf. The petition sought to vacate and set aside the judgment rendered upon his plea of guilty, and a withdrawal of the plea. After *565 hearing, the trial court denied the writ, and it is from this judgment that appellant prosecutes this appeal.
The sole question here presented is:
Is the judgment of the trial court contrary to law?
Upon motion of his counsel appellant was returned from the Indiana State Prison on February 1, 1952, to testify in his own behalf at the hearing on his petition for a writ of error coram nobis.
Appellant introduced evidence in support of his said petition and appellee introduced evidence controverting each and every allegation therein contained. The evidence, as shown by the record, is in conflict on the material allegations of appellant's petition. When this is true, we will not weigh the evidence or determine the credibility of witnesses. Lykins v. State (1952), 231 Ind. 258, 108 N.E.2d 270; Sells v. State (1952), 231 Ind. 137, 107 N.E.2d 264; State v. Lindsey (1952), 231 Ind. 126, 106 N.E.2d 230; Abraham v. State (1949), 228 Ind. 179, 91 N.E.2d 358; and the decision of the trial court will not be disturbed if there is evidence of probative value to sustain it. Sells v. State, supra; State v. Lindsey, supra.
A consideration of the evidence favorable to appellee discloses that the trial court complied fully with Rule 1-11 of this court, and that the recorded proceedings[1]*566 clearly show that appellant was fully advised as to his constitutional rights of representation by counsel and trial by jury. The record further discloses that the fire for which appellant was arrested on May 30, 1948, occurred on May 29, 1948, and that he was arraigned on June 2, 1948, on the affidavit of the sheriff of Shelby County at which time he entered his plea of guilty and sentence was pronounced.
*567 Appellant's daughter testified that she visited him in jail three or four times before he was sentenced, and that her father did not ask her to get him a lawyer.
The prosecuting attorney testified that on June 1, 1948, he was called to the sheriff's office where officers from the State Fire Marshal's office and the county sheriff were talking to appellant about the charges on *568 which he had been arrested, and that at that time he advised appellant that he was entitled to an attorney and appellant replied that he did not think he wanted one. The prosecuting attorney then said to appellant, "Well, you have a right to have one and when the Judge arraigns you, he will give you an opportunity to secure one."
Both the sheriff and the officer from the State Fire Marshal's office testified that they each advised appellant *569 prior to June 2, 1948, that he was entitled to an attorney to represent him, and that in each instance he replied that he did not want one. There is additional evidence in the record which shows clearly that appellant's constitutional rights were not violated, but we do not deem it necessary to encumber this opinion by summarizing or setting it out.
*570 There is an abundance of evidence in the record to sustain the decision of the trial court and it will not be disturbed.
It is only where the evidence is without conflict and can lead to but one conclusion, and the trial court has reached a contrary conclusion, that the decision of the trial court will be set aside on the ground that it is contrary to law.
