Ramirez, 79 N.M. 475, 444 P.2d 986. Subsequently, on November 7, 1969, he filed a motion for post-conviction relief pursuant to Rule 93 [\u00a7 21-1-1(93) N.M.S.A. 1953] which was denied. Thereafter, on July 16, 1970, a second motion for relief was filed by him under the same rule, with a request that the court appoint counsel to aid him in connection with his motion. The court refused to appoint counsel and denied relief without a hearing, and he has appealed.\nAppellant contends that failure to appoint counsel to assist him violated his constitutional rights to counsel and effectively denied him due process of law. There is no merit to his contentions. His motion was a successive motion and states no basis for relief. In this situation the appointment of counsel was not required. The court did not err in denying his motion without a hearing. State v. Tafoya, 81 N.M. 686, 472 P.2d 651 (Ct.App.). Compare State v. Sisneros, 79 N.M. 600, 446 P.2d 875.\nThe order denying relief should be affirmed.\nIt is so ordered.\nTACKETT and OMAN, JJ., concur.",
