STATE OF NEW JERSEY, PLAINTIFF-APPELLANT, v. CRAIG JOHNSON, DEFENDANT-RESPONDENT.

The Supreme Court of New Jersey.

Decided July 20, 1972.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Mr. Elson P. Kendall, Assistant Prosecutor, argued the cause for appellant (Mr. Karl Asch, Union County Prosecutor, attorney; Mr. Michael H. Kessler, Assistant Prosecutor, on the brief).

Mr. John De Cicco, Deputy Attorney General, argued the cause as amicus curiae for State of New Jersey (Mr. George F. Kugler, Jr., Attorney General.)

Mr. Herbert I. Waldman, Assistant Deputy Public Defender, argued the cause for respondent (Mr. Stanley C. Van Ness, Public Defender, attorney; Mr. Robert L. Martin, Assistant Deputy Public Defender, on the brief).

The opinion of the Court was delivered by FRANCIS, J.
