dissenting.
Because I consider the death penalty to be a cruel and unusual punishment forbidden by the Eighth and Fourteenth Amendments, see Gregg v. Georgia, ante, p. 231 (Marshall, J., dissenting), I would grant certiorari in these cases [No. 74-5196 through No. 75-6653] and vacate the judgments insofar as they leave undisturbed the sentences of death.
