Argued March 1, 1971

Decided March 3, 1971


Motions for stay and for leave to appeal denied. The question concerning denial of a speedy trial as well as the further issue as to unfairness to defendant by reason of his 10-year confinement at a mental institution will undoubtedly be presented on the trial and may be subject to review upon appeal in the event of a conviction.
