State of Connecticut v. Michael D’Ambrosio
    
      Susan M. Hankins, assistant public defender, in support of the petition.
    
      James M. Killen, deputy assistant state’s attorney, in opposition.
    Decided September 20, 1988
   The defendant’s petition for certification for appeal from the Appellate Court, 14 Conn. App. 309, is granted, limited to the following issue:

“Did the Appellate Court err in upholding the trial court’s denial of the defendant’s request for an examination of the psychiatric records of a key state witness, on the basis that there had been no preliminary showing that denial was likely to impair his right to confrontation?”
