Description
The petitioner, Van Buren Mauldin, was convicted by a jury of manslaughter by automobile in the Criminal Court of Baltimore on September 25, 1964, Judge Prendergast presiding, and sentenced to three years in the Maryland House of Correction. He had previously been convicted on July 18, 1964 in the Municipal Court of Baltimore City on traffic charges, the chief of which was drunken driving, and received a sentence of fifteen months in the Maryland House of Correction. All of the charges arose out of a fatal accident which occurred on July 2, 1964 when the petitioners car collided with another vehicle causing the death of a passenger in the motor vehicle which his car struck. He was represented in both cases by counsel of his choice. On October 5, 1964, he noted an appeal to the Court of Appeals of Maryland from his conviction on the manslaughter charge, and Judge Prendergast appointed counsel of his own selection to represent him. His conviction was affirmed by the Court of Appeals on July 30, 1965. Mauldin v. State, 239 Md. 592. He had previously taken an appeal from his traffic convictions, which had been dismissed by petition.
