Appeal from the Superior Court, First Judicial District, Ketchikan, Michael A. Thompson, Judge. Donald R. Hosier, Florence, Arizona, in propria persona, for Appellant. John A. Scukanec, Assistant Attorney General, Office of Special Prosecutions and Appeals, Anchorage, and Bruce M. Botelho, Attorney General, Juneau, for Appellee. Donald Hosier has been convicted of forgery and theft, and he is appealing these convictions. He asked the superior court to release him on bail pending appeal, but the superior court denied this request.
Hosier now seeks review of the superior court's decision.
However, Hosier contends that this statute is unconstitutional. Hosier has previously attacked the constitutionality of this bail statute. In his prior attack, Hosier argued that the statute denied him equal protection of the law. We rejected this contention and upheld the statute in Hosier v. State. Hosier concedes that this section does not guarantee a right to post-conviction bail.
