Manzione saw the record close on the grounds that their consti tutional right had been violated. Judge Willis W. Ritter, U. S. District Court, who had granted a writ of habeas corpus on grounds that Braasch and Sullivan had been denied the right of legal counsel at all stages of the prese- cution, saw his decision reversed by the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals in Denver. The U.S. Supreme Court declined to review the case on certiorari, and Judge Ritter ordered the files returned to the state court. He has held jurisdiction of the controversial case for more than three years. Gov. Lee at one time submitted a bill to the federal government for board bill for the inmates, claiming that the federal court was retaining cus tody of the case and the prisoners should be maintained by federal funds.
