Decided June 18, 1986.

W. Cary Edwards, Attorney General of New Jersey, attorney for respondent (Gilbert G. Miller, Deputy Attorney General, of counsel and on the brief).

Before Judges J.H. COLEMAN and HAVEY.


The opinion of the court was delivered by COLEMAN, J.H., J.A.D.

The novel issue raised by this appeal is whether executing an application for a public defender at a county jail at the request of a jail guard is a request for counsel within contemplation of Edwards v. Arizona, 451 U.S. 477, 101 S.Ct. 1880, 68 L.Ed.2d 378 (1981). The trial judge held that it did not. For the reasons which follow, we affirm.
