LUMPKIN, Vice Presiding Judge,
specially concurring.
I concur with the Court’s analysis and decision in these matters. The Court’s decision to overrule Magill v. Miller, 445 P.2d 715 (Okl.Cr.1969), as it provided for review of the preliminary hearing proceedings upon an appeal of a conviction in the case, Id. at 717, is especially well taken. That part of the decision in Magill was rendered without legal predicate, analysis, or statutory authority. In addition, it has always seemed somewhat ludicrous to say this Court would review the bindover procedure on appeal following a trial wherein an appellant was found guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.
