Opinion

CASHIN, J.

The defendant in this case was convicted in the superior court of San Mateo County of a felony, to wit, burglary of the second degree, and was sentenced to be imprisoned in the state prison. He has appealed from the judgment of conviction to this court and the appeal has been perfected. The trial court, on application by appellant, refused to grant a certificate of probable cause for the appeal, denied appellant a stay of execution until such time as the record on appeal should be filed in this court, and appellant has been removed to the state prison as a result of said judgment and sentence.

*197 In the record before us several matters in the proceedings leading to his conviction are indicated by appellant upon which he has based his appeal and which are claimed by him to constitute prejudicial error. From examination of this record we are convinced that the questions raised by appellant are debatable and not frivolous, and, therefore, the trial court having failed to grant the relief to which appellant was entitled, it is ordered that a certificate of probable cause for appeal in this cause be issued.

Tyler, P. J., and Knight, J., concurred.
