Decided March 31, 1971.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Frank J. Kelley, Attorney General, Robert A. Derengoski, Solicitor General, Paul M. Ladas, Prosecuting Attorney, and Lawrence R. Backofen, Assistant Prosecuting Attorney, for the people.

G. Thomas Johnson, for defendant on appeal.

Before: FITZGERALD, P.J., and V.J. BRENNAN and T.M. BURNS, JJ.


PER CURIAM.

On February 17, 1969, defendant pled guilty to unarmed robbery, MCLA § 750.530 (Stat Ann 1954 Rev § 28.798). Defendant now argues that because the trial judge never specifically inquired as to whether defendant was voluntarily making his plea, the requirements of GCR 1963, 785.3 have not been met.

Since the decisions by the Michigan Supreme Court in People v. Hobdy (1968), 380 Mich. 686
