NAHU SORIA RODRIGUEZ, (Stanislaus Super. Ct. No. 52042)

On Habeas Corpus. OPINION

THE COURT ORIGINAL PROCEEDINGS; petition for writ of habeas corpus. Nahu Soria Rodriguez, in pro. per., for Petitioner. Rob Bonta, Attorney General, Michael P. Farrell, Assistant Attorney General, and Max Feinstat, Deputy Attorney General, for Respondent. -ooOoo- Petitioner seeks permission to file a belated notice of appeal under the doctrine of constructive filing. (In re Benoit (1973) 10 Cal.3d 72, 81–82.) Respondent filed a response to the request stating that petitioner’s “allegations appear to be sufficient to make a prima facie showing for relief from default under the Sixth Amendment right to counsel. (Roe v. Flores-Ortega (2000) 528 U.S. 470, 480.)” We conclude petitioner is entitled to relief.
