No. 1250 Misc.


Decided May 2, 1966
384 U.S. 150

ON PETITION FOR WRIT OF CERTIORARI
TO THE SUPREME COURT OF ARIZONA

Syllabus

The question whether, in the circumstances of this case, a hearing on the accused’s competence to stand trial was sufficient to determine whether the trial judge had a further protecting duty should be reexamined in light of Pate v. Robinson, 383 U.S. 375.

Certiorari granted; 99 Ariz. 30, 406 P.2d 388, vacated and remanded.
