 APPENDIX
 In The District Court of the Twentieth Judicial District
 Carter County, Oklahoma
 In the Matter of:
 Tom Palmer,
 Petitioner,
 vs.
 No. CRF-69-201
 Ray H. Page and
 The State of Oklahoma,
 Respondents.
ORDER DENYING PETITION FOR WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS "AD TESTIFICANDUM"
 This matter comes on for hearing this 16th day of June, 1971,
before the undersigned Judge of the District Court upon the
Petition For Writ of Habeas Corpus "Ad Testificandum" filed
heretofore and on the 29th day of March, 1971, by the petitioner,
Tom Palmer. The Court being fully advised finds that The State of
Oklahoma has filed a timely response to said application and the
matter is now at issue.
 The court finds that heretofore and on the 24th day of
December, 1969, the petitioner, Tom Palmer, was duly charged in
the District Court of Carter County with the offense of
Embezzlement by Bailee. That subsequent to said date and on the
16th day of January, 1970, the petitioner, Tom Palmer, was duly
arraigned in the District Court of Carter County, Oklahoma, and
at said arraignment entered a voluntary plea of guilty to the
crime of Embezzlement by Bailee. That based on said plea, the
petitioner was sentenced to a term of imprisonment in the custody
of the Department of Corrections of the State of Oklahoma for
three (3) years. The Court finds that the petitioner has raised
the single issue of not intelligently waiving his right to
counsel at the time the plea of guilty was made. The Court finds
from an examination of the file, docket, and official transcript
of the hearing that petitioner was fully advised of his right to
counsel by the Court and that petitioner understood said right to
counsel existed at all times during each step of the proceedings.
The Court further finds that the petitioner, Tom Palmer, an
adult, voluntarily and intelligently waived his constitutional
rights to counsel. That accordingly no material question of fact
exists for the Court in the present hearing; and, therefore, the
Petition For Writ of Habeas Corpus "Ad Testificandum" should be
overruled.
 It is ordered, adjudged and decreed that the Petition For Writ
of Habeas Corpus
 *Page 1109 
"Ad Testificandum" filed heretofore and on the
29th day of March, 1971, by the petitioner Tom Palmer be and the
same is hereby overruled.
 (s) Kenneth Shilling
 JUDGE OF THE
 DISTRICT COURT
