Sup. Ct. Fla.; and

Sup. Ct. Neb. Certio-rari denied. Reported below: No. 98-9741, 721 So. 2d 287; No. 99-5291, 256 Neb. 553, 591 N.W. 2d 86.

Opinion of Justice Stevens respecting the denial of the petitions for writ of certiorari.

It seems appropriate to emphasize that the denial of these petitions for certiorari does not constitute a ruling on the merits. See, e. g., Barber v. Tennessee, 513 U. S. 1184 (1995) (opinion of Stevens, J., respecting denial of certiorari).
