Text: By Decree of the Superior Court dated January 6, 1969 upon petition of the above named for declaratory judgment it was held that his sentence imposed upon conviction for assault and robbery out of the Superior Court for Penobscot County on or about March 9, 1961 began on March 16, 1961. To this ruling the State appealed, which appeal is pending. Meantime by opinion filed January 17, 1969 of Hartley v. State the ruling in the Decree of January 6, 1969 was held error. Now on January 22, 1969 the State moves under Rule 60(b) (5) M.R.C.P. that the Decree of January 6, 1969 be amended to reflect the law declared in Hartley v. State. Upon consideration therefore, the motion is granted and the Decree of January 6, 1969 is amended to hold that the sentence in MSP No. 10066 upon which petitioner was paroled August 24, 1960, and the sentence imposed on or about March 9, 1961 for assault and robbery were not subject to be served concurrently and that the sentence in MSP No. 10066 and the sentence imposed on or about March 9, 1961 are to be served consecutively as declared in Hartley v. State.
