that he was prepared for trial, and
that as late as Thursday night he was
assured by the prosecutor that the
trial would go on. He then said that.
in order that the trial may go on, he
was willing to waive any rights of his
client.
Judge Gummere, in giving his deci-
sion, said that he would grant the ap-
plication not because he knew per-
sonally anything against my Of the
jurors, but because Prosecutor Mott
said so.
He further said that an attorney in a
capital case had no right to waive any
of the rights that the law allowed his
client.
Then he pointed to the fact that this
panel, because three jurors had been
excused already, contained only forty
five names, instead of forty-eight, and
he was not disposed to have in a case
of his kind any questionable OF irreg-
ular proceeding if he could help 1t.
When Mr.. McDermit said that he had
objected to the panel on the same
grounds last Tuesday, but that he was
satisfied the trial should go on, Justice
Gummere said:
IF | should make an error which
you would have to pass on as the court
of last appeal it would be all right, but
neither you nor I will sit on the bench
of the Court of Appeals, and 1 can
f~oretell with no reasonable certainty
what the decision of that court would
be il the case We're reviewed" Then
he reiterated his determination to al
low the injection of no matter in a
capital case that might be questioned
later by a higher court.
The unusual character of the pro-
ceeding attracted a large number of
lawyers to the court, and there was a
smile on all the legal faces present
when Judge Gummere said that Mr..
McDermit would not be the court
of last resort in case he was in error.
Prosecutor Mott is authority for the
statement that one of the men on the
panel has been convicted of robbery
and another Is living with a woman not
his wife.
