No. 4059.

228 A.2d 846 (1967)

Albert C. WILLIAMS, Appellant, v. UNITED STATES, Appellee.

District of Columbia Court of Appeals.

Decided May 2, 1967.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Carl L. Taylor, Washington, D. C., for appellant.

Edward T. Miller, Asst. U. S. Atty., with whom David G. Bress, U. S. Atty., and Frank Q. Nebeker, Asst. U. S. Atty., were on the brief, for appellee.

Before HOOD, Chief Judge, MYERS, Associate Judge, and CAYTON (Chief Judge, Retired).


CAYTON, Judge:

Appellant was tried by jury and convicted of negligent homicide, D.C.Code 1961, § 40-606, and has appealed.

The principal matter with which we need to deal is the claim that the trial judge unduly intervened in the trial, usurped the function of counsel in cross-examination of witnesses, and harassed and discredited defense counsel to such an extent as to impair his ability to properly represent the defendant.
