Summary

            Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Scott County, Stuart Werling, Judge.  WRIT ANNULLED.  Considered by Schumacher, P.J., and Chicchelly and Buller, JJ.  Opinion by Buller, J. (8 pages)

            A criminal defendant petitions for a writ of certiorari surrounding his simple misdemeanor conviction.  OPINION HOLDS: We find that, on the peculiar facts of this record, we need not answer whether the defendant was entitled to a simple-misdemeanor jury trial, and we annul the writ of certiorari because the district judge did not act illegally when adjudicating the simple misdemeanor.
