ZANT v. WENTWORTH.

Supreme Court of Georgia.

Decided April 6, 1982.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Michael J. Bowers, Attorney General, Mary Beth Westmore-land, Assistant Attorney General, for appellant.

Robert Wentworth, pro se.

MARSHALL, Justice.

The appellee in this case filed a petition for writ of habeas corpus, seeking to set aside his convictions and sentences for burglary and theft by taking on grounds that his waiver of counsel and guilty plea were not knowing and voluntary.

The habeas judge agreed and, therefore, ruled in the appellee's favor. See Blackledge v. Allison, 431 U.S. 63 (97 S.C. 1621, 52 LE2d
