United States v. Willie Canty, Jr.

430 F.2d 1332, 1970 U.S. App. LEXIS 7879

Opinions

PER CURIAM:

On appeal from his conviction for bank robbery, Canty contends that his Sixth Amendment right to counsel was violated by permitting witnesses to the robbery to view a series of photographs, including one of himself, without an attorney’s having been present during the photographic confrontation. At the time of the viewing and the resulting identification of Canty as a participant, he was not under arrest for the robbery, though he was confined in another jurisdiction in connection with an unrelated offense. We find no error in the procedure followed. United States v. Marson, 4 Cir., 408 F.2d 644; United States v. Collins, 4 Cir., 416 F.2d 696.

The remaining assignments of error are without merit.

Affirmed.
