ORDER
(By: Moon, C.J., Nakayama, Acoba, Duffy, and Recktenwald, JJ.)
Upon consideration of the petition for a writ of
mandamus filed by petitioner Michael C. Tierney and the papers in
support, it appears that petitioner is represented by appointed
counsel in appellate case No. 29993 inasmuch as the circuit
court’s May 22, 2009 order appointing counsel in Cr. No. 08-1-
0869 appointed counsel for petitioner for purposes of sentencing
and for appeal.  Therefore,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the clerk of the appellate
court shall process the petition for a writ of mandamus without
payment of the filing fee.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the petition for a writ of
mandamus is denied.
