Concurring
Arterburn, J.
It is the concern of the bar of this State and this Court, which fixes the standard of competency, to have to set aside a conviction because of incompetency of a member of the bar representing a defendant in a criminal case. I therefore feel the competency of the attorney involved in this case should be referred to the Disciplinary Commission for investigation and report as to whether or not disbarment proceedings or other disciplinary action should be taken. See: Shack v. State (1965), 249 Ind. 60, 206 N. E. 2d 614, p. 617.
Note. — Reported in 231 N. E. 2d 36.
