Description
Defendant, John Vernon Deckard, was convicted of Forcible Rape, a felony, in the Circuit Court of Taney County, Missouri,
on October 11, 1960, and sentenced to serve 99 years in the state penitentiary. The Information filed charged the defendant
under the Habitual Criminal Act, alleging prior convictions, and the proceedings were in accord with the provisions of that
Act. The defendant was represented in the trial court by counsel of his own choosing. He did not file a Motion for a New Trial,
but on March 13, 1961, an appeal was authorized by a special order granted under S. Ct. Rule 28.07. This appeal was prosecuted
by defendant as a poor person and without counsel representing him on appeal. The appeal was decided on February 12, 1962,
the judgment of the trial court was affirmed, and is reported in 354 S.W.2d 886. Following the case of Swenson v. Donnell,
382 F.2d 248, on April 17, 1967, this Court entered an order setting aside the judgment affirming the conviction of defendant
and reinstating the cause on the docket. The Circuit Court of Taney County, Missouri appointed counsel for defendant in accord
with S. Ct. Rule 29.01(c). Appointed counsel has prepared and filed brief in the case and appeared before the court in oral
argument.
