Head Matter:
STATE v. Cheryl BELL et al.
No. 78-400-C.A.
Supreme Court of Rhode Island.
Nov. 19, 1981.
Dennis J. Roberts, II, Atty. Gen., David H. Leach, Sp. Asst. Atty. Gen., for plaintiff.
William F. Reilly, Public Defender, Barbara Hurst, Chief Appellate Atty., for defendant Cheryl Bell.

Opinion:
ORDER
The motion of defendant Cheryl Bell to withdraw her appeal is granted. In light of the fact that defendant Edward J. McKee, Sr. has died, the judgment of conviction as to McKee is vacated and, upon remand, the Superior Court is directed to dismiss the charges against him. Since defendant Walsh's whereabouts are unknown and she has apparently left the jurisdiction, the Walsh appeal is also hereby dismissed.
