People v. Mallory

Adams, J.

(concurring specially). I concur with the 3d, 4th and 5th paragraphs of Justice Souris’ opinion. Canon 19 of the canons of judicial ethics deals with judicial opinions. It reads in part:

“It is of high importance that judges constituting a court of last resort should use effort and self-restraint to promote solidarity of conclusion and the consequent influence of judicial decision.”

In the opinion of the undersigned, the above sentence from Canon 19 is applicable here.

*582T. M. Kavanagh, C.J., Dethmers, and Souris, JJ., concurred with Adams, J.
