In Houston a federal suit seeks to force state bar counsel to appoint Calvin Burdine's appellate attorney for a retrial of his capital murder case. Burdine, convicted in 1984 for stabbing his former roommate, has pursued a new trial for 18 years. US defender Robert L. McGlasson handled Burdine's appeals for 15 years and had sought retrial representation, but State District Judge Joan Huffman denied the request in June and ruled McGlasson was not on the approved list.
