It appearing that the state in the above-entitled case has failed to defend against the defendant's appeal from the Superior Court in Fairfield County with proper diligence, it is, under Practice Boole § 696, ordered by the Supreme Court, suo motu, that unless the state files its brief on or before June 15, 1976, the judgment be set aside and the case be remanded with direction to render judgment for the defendant.
