Harry Hull v. Cornelius J. Reilly, Circuit Judge of Wayne County.
[See 86 Mich. 449.]
Criminal law — Admission to bail — Mandamus.
After a respondent was convicted of murder, which conviction was reversed, he was admitted to bail. Pending his second trial he was ordered into custody, and a mandamus to compel the circuit judge to admit him to bail is denied.
Mandamus.
Submitted October 6, 1891.
Denied October 7, 1891.
Relator applied for mandamus to compel respondent to admit him to bail. The facts are sufficiently stated in the opinion.
John G. Hawley, for relator.

Opinion:
Per Curiam.
Petitioner was convicted of murder in the Wayne circuit court, which conviction was reversed by this Court, and a new trial ordered, and the prisoner admitted to bail. A second trial is now in progress, and the circuit judge has ordered him into the custody of the sheriff of Wayne county. He has applied to the judge to admit him to bail, and he has declined. We are asked to compel the ' circuit judge by mandamus to admit relator to bail pending trial. We decline to do so, and the writ is denied.
