People v. Smith

Kavanagh, C. J.

I dissent for the reasons stated by my Brothers Williams and Levin. I also dissent because one of the issues raised on appeal is whether the defendant and the people should be put to the expense and trouble of a criminal trial after 18 years. This order resolves that issue without specifying any reason for so doing, contrary to the mandate of § 6 of Article 6, Constitution 1963.
