Heading: Whether the trial court erred in allowing the in-court identification of the appellant after an illegal out-of-court lineup.

Text: According to Ross, Johnson did not have time to adequately observe her attacker. Ross asserts, It is agreed that Ms. Johnson was too upset to make reliable observations. That statement is not true. Further, Ross offers this Court no basis for concluding that the suppressed line-up, conducted without Ross's counsel, tainted Johnson's memory and in-court identification. This issue lacks merit. See Wade v. United States, 388 U.S. 218, 241-242, 87 S.Ct. at 1926, 1940, 18 L.Ed.2d 1149 (United States Supreme Court, remanding, ordered district court to conduct hearing to determine if in-court identification had had source independent of lineup).
