Opinion

[App. No. 14, September Term, 1964.]

Decided October 18, 1965.

Application for leave to appeal from the Circuit Court for Prince George's County (POWERS, J.).

Haywood Earl Journigan instituted a proceeding under the Post Conviction Procedure Act, and from a denial of relief, he applied for leave to appeal.

Application denied.

Before PRESCOTT, C.J., and HAMMOND, HORNEY, MARBURY, OPPENHEIMER and BARNES, JJ.


Decided October 18, 1965.


For the reasons stated by Judge Powers in the lower court in his memorandum and order of February 25, 1964, the application of Haywood Earl Journigan for leave to appeal from the order denying him post conviction relief from imprisonment for robbery with a deadly weapon is hereby denied.

The applicant's appeal from the original trial, Journigan v. State, 223 Md. 405, 164 A.2d 896 (1960), did not raise the issues of probable cause for his arrest or the introduction of evidence as a result thereof. In any event, the applicant's trial and final conviction was prior to Mapp v. Ohio, 367 U.S. 643 (1961), at a time when illegally seized evidence was admissible in a trial on a charge which was a felony. Nance v. Warden, 239 Md. 404, 211 A.2d 739 (1965).

Application denied.
