Opinion

No. 8388.

June 27, 1955.

Appeal from the Third District Court, Salt Lake County, A. H. Ellett, J.

D. F. Wilkins, Salt Lake City, H. M. Levy, New York City, for appellant.

E. R. Callister, Jr., Atty. Gen., Walter L. Budge, Asst. Atty. Gen., for respondent.


This is an appeal from an Order denying a Petition for a Writ of Coram Nobis. The Order is affirmed.

It is the opinion of this Court that the Writ of Coram Nobis is available in this state in a proper case.

After examining the record before us, we are further of the opinion that the trial court who tried the case and to which the Petition was directed, was justified in denying the same.
