Opinion of the Court
Quinn, Chief Judge:
The question presented by this appeal is whether error was committed by the military judge when he examined the sentence provision of a pretrial agreement between the accused and the convening authority. We considered this question in United States v Villa, 19 USCMA 564, 42 CMR 166 (1970), and for the reasons set out in our opinion in that case, we conclude there was no error.
The decision of the United States Army Court of Military Review is affirmed.
Judge DARDEN concurs.
