190 So.2d 909
    STATE of Louisiana v. Willie Lee THOMAS.
    No. 48431.
    Oct. 20, 1966.
   In re: Willie Lee Thomas applying for writ of habeas corpus.

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.
