Before HASELTON, Presiding Judge, and ARMSTRONG, Judge, and WOLLHEIM, Judge.


ARMSTRONG, J.

Petitioner appeals a judgment denying his petition for post-conviction relief, raising five assignments of error. We write to address only one of them, viz., that the trial court erred in granting a motion by petitioner's appointed counsel to withdraw as his counsel and in ordering petitioner to proceed pro se. We agree with petitioner on that assignment and, accordingly, reverse and remand.
