Woodrow WHISMAN v. GEORGIA.

86 S.Ct. 1977

Woodrow WHISMAN
v.
GEORGIA.
No. 1381, Misc.
Supreme Court of the United States
June 20, 1966
Rehearing Denied Oct. 10, 1966.
See 87 S.Ct. 27.
Reuben A. Garland and Beryl H. Weiner, for appellant.
Arthur K. Bolton, Atty. Gen. of Georgia, and Alfred L. Evans, Jr., Asst. Atty. Gen., for appellee.
PER CURIAM.
The motion to dismiss is granted and the appeal is dismissed for want of jurisdiction. Treating the papers whereon the appeal was taken as a petition for a writ of certiorari, certiorari is denied.
Mr. Justice DOUGLAS is of the opinion that certiorari should be granted and the judgment reversed. He would remand the case for a new trial, it being clear from the record that the principles announced in Miranda v. State of Arizona, 384 U.S. 436, 86 S.Ct. 1602, 16 L.Ed.2d 694, were not applied. He sees no reason for discriminating against this petitioner, the case having come here on direct review and being of the same vintage as Miranda v. State of Arizona. See dissenting opinion in Johnson v. State of New Jersey, 384 U.S. 736, 86 S.Ct. 1782, 16 L.Ed.2d 894.
