Opinion

Concur: Chief Judge Euld and Judges Burke, Scileppi, Bergan, Jasen and Gibson. Judge Bkeitel dissents and votes to reverse and grant a new trial on the grounds that the cross-examination of the witness Adderly was improperly curtailed, and that it was an abuse of discretion to deny the defendant adjournments in order to obtain mental hospital records concerning the witness Adderly and to refuse to permit the calling of Ulysses Bryant as a witness, all of which rendered the trial unfair.
