MANDERINO, Justice,
dissenting.
I dissent. During the interval following arrest and before trial appellant’s counsel was led to believe, by the prosecution, that there were no out-of-court identification procedures. It was reasonable, therefore, for appellant’s counsel to rely on there not being any evidence in the form of out-of-court identification and not moving to suppress the same. Accordingly, I cannot conclude that the issue of the admissibility of out-of-court identification testimony was waived.
Since the trial court did not have the opportunity to consider the admissibility of the challenged evidence I would remand for a suppression hearing on that issue.
