Head Matter:
State ex rel. Taylor v. Dowd, Warden et al.
[No. 27,971.
Filed March 13, 1944.]
Chester Taylor, of Michigan City, pro se.
James A. Emmert, Attorney General, Frank Hamilton, First Assistant Attorney General, and Frank E. Coughlin, Deputy Attorney General, for appellees.

Opinion:
Per Curiam.
This is an original action seeking a writ of habeas corpus, and certiorari in aid thereof. There is ample jurisdiction in the nisi prius courts to issue the writ in a proper case, with a remedy by appeal if the writ is erroneously denied. This court has no original jurisdiction of habeas corpus. Jones v. Dowd, Warden (1941), 219 Ind. 114, 37 N. E. (2d) 68.
Petition dismissed.
Note.—Reported in 53 N. E. (2d) 543.
