Description
Frank Potts, pro se, appeals the trial court's order denying his petition for writ of mandamus. The State concedes that the trial court erred, and we reverse and remand for the trial court to grant the petition, in part. We reject, without comment, Potts' claim for accumulated court costs and attorney's fees. Potts filed a petition for writ of mandamus in the circuit court seeking to compel his appointed counsel, Byron Hileman, to turn over original documents contained in Hileman's case file at no cost to Potts. Hileman had been appointed to represent Potts in a post-conviction proceeding. Attached to the petition was a copy of a letter from Potts to Hileman listing some of the documents that Potts had requested. The trial court denied the petition on the basis that Potts was not entitled to his attorney's original trial records.
