BOWMAN, BROOKS & HARRIS v. STATE

No. 93, September Term, 1972.

16 Md. App. 384 (1972)

297 A.2d 323

CECIL O'DELL BOWMAN, JOHN WILLIAM BROOKS, JR. AND ALVIN HARRIS, JR. v. STATE OF MARYLAND.

Court of Special Appeals of Maryland.

Decided December 6, 1972.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Joseph S. Casula for appellants.

George A. Eichhorn, III, Assistant Attorney General, with whom were Francis B. Burch, Attorney General, J. Thomas Caskey, Assistant Attorney General, Arthur A. Marshall, Jr., State's Attorney for Prince George's County, and Richard H. Sothoron, Jr., Assistant State's Attorney for Prince George's County, on the brief, for appellee.

The cause was argued before MORTON, MOYLAN and POWERS, JJ.


POWERS, J., delivered the opinion of the Court.

Judgments of conviction of robbery with a dangerous and deadly weapon against Cecil O'Dell Bowman and John William Brooks, Jr. entered upon jury verdicts in the Circuit Court for Prince George's County will have to be reversed because their rights under Bruton v. U.S., 391 U.S. 123, were violated. Conviction of their codefendant, Alvin Harris, Jr., need not be disturbed.
