The United States Court OF
Appeals today upheld the con-
viction of a 47-year-old former
physician who was sentenced
to 2 to 6 years on an attempted
abortion charge which had re-
suited in the death Of the
woman.
The court affirmed the con-
viction of Lewis L. Wayne de-
spite his claim that the coro-
ner's testimony as to the cause
Of death should have been ex-
cluded because the victims body
was obtained by police after
breaking down an apartment
house door without a search
warrant.
Judge Warren E. Burger, who
wrote the majority opinion, held
that under emergency circum-
stances, when police have rea-
son TO believe a woman is dying.
they may break in without re-
sorting TO normal search and
seizure methods.
COncurs on Opinion
Judge George T. Washing
ton concurred. He said the
coroner's testimony was per-
MISSILE on the grounds that
the coroner would have eventu-
ally obtained the body anyway
TO preform an autopsy. Thus,
Judge Washington concluded.
the body would have come into
the coroner's possession with
or without the search and
seizure.
However, Judge Charles Fahy
dissented. stating that the
search was illegal because there
was no firm evidence that the
police had announced their
presence and intention.
The evidence showed that
the victim was given medical
ton TO induce an abortion in
Wayne's apartment In return
for $500. After the medication
was applied. the victims sister
said. Wayne emerged from the
bedroom saying "Oh, my God,
believe she's dead"
The sister finally escaped
from the apartment after being
detained and eventully con-
tacted a friend who called the
police. according TO the evi-
dence The opinion states that
the police knew only that a
woman was dying and not that
an abortion was taking place.
Police testified that they had

waited for 10 minutes outside
the door demanding entry and
that during that time the VIC
TINS sister had returned and
told them Of the attempted
abortion.
Judge Fahy pointed out that
he would have excluded the
coroner's testimony on the mar
row grounds that there was no
express announcement by the
police of their purpose for de-
handing entrance.
Procedure Okay
Judge Burger said that from
all indications there was an
announcement and a reason
able waiting period by the
police. However, Judge Burger
said, even II the police had not
waited what could be con-
sidered a justified period Of
time, the exigencies Of saving
a human life would justify
quick entry.
II reject the idea that So
ciety can be frustrated and
denied reasonable protection by
mechanical adherence to form
alism. Police should not be
required TO lay seige to an
apartment to await a search
warrant while a life may be
at stake" he added.
