laws in that the iuries in st.
Croix were not being select
ed in strict accordance with
the Code and that, as a result,
Puerto Ricans were being
Systematically excluded from
jury service.
He also introduced evidence
to show that when the jury
panel was exhausted, the
Court, in summoning addition
al jurymen, purposely avoid
ed Puerto Ricans.
In his opinion, Judge Maris
observed that the juries were
not being selected according
to law but considered such de
parture a procedural irregu-
larity which was not prejudi-
cial to the accused. It was
due to a lack Of knowledge on
the part Of the jury commits
sioners rather than any de-
sign on their part to exclude
Puerto Ricans from jury ser
vice.
However,, he did find that
Puerto Ricans were avoided
and excluded when additional
jurors were summoned and
for that reason, Leguiflou, i
Puerto Rican, was denied his
rights under the Fifth Amend
