Heading: Selsor's first application for state post-conviction relief

Text: On November 8, 1978, Selsor filed a pro se application for post-conviction relief in state district court. The application asserted a single claim for relief from his convictions, i.e., that THE TRIAL COURT ERRED BY REQUIRING [Dodson] AND [Selsor] TO, OVER [their] OBJECTION, BE TRIED JOINTLY WITH THE SAME COUNSEL FROM THE PUBLIC DEFENDERS OFFICE. S. R., Vol. I at 160. On February 28, 1980, the state district court denied Selsor's application, noting that Selsor's claim had previously been rejected by the OCCA on direct appeal. The state district court's denial of post-conviction relief was affirmed by the OCCA on June 12, 1980.
