STATE of Arizona, Appellee, v. Ernest A. MIRANDA, Appellant.

Supreme Court of Arizona, En Banc.

May 2, 1973.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Gary K. Nelson, Atty. Gen., by Peter Van Orman, Asst. Atty. Gen., Phoenix, for appellee.

Ross P. Lee, Maricopa County Public Defender, by James H. Kemper, Deputy Public Defender, Phoenix, for appellant.


HAYS, Chief Justice.

Ernest Miranda was tried by a jury on September 20, 1971, and convicted of the November 27, 1962, robbery of Barbara Sue McDaniel. Because of the extreme possibility of jury familiarity with his name, he was tried anonymously as Jose Gomez. On this appeal from the robbery conviction, Miranda maintains that the in-court identification by the victim denied him due process of law in violation of his rights under the fourteenth amendment.
