United States Supreme Court

393 U.S. 374

Smith  v.  Hooey

 Argued: Dec. 11, 1968. --- Decided: Jan 20, 1969


Mr. Justice BLACK concurs in the opinion and judgment of the Court, but he would make it absolutely clear to the Supreme Court of Texas that so far as the federal constitutional question is concerned its judgment is set aside only for the purpose of giving the petitioner a trial, and that if a trial is given the case should not be dismissed.
