Langley v. Reincke

Supreme Court of Connecticut
Dec 19, 1967
236 A.2d 924 (Conn. 1967)

Opinion

Argued December 7, 1967

Decided December 19, 1967

Habeas corpus alleging unlawful imprisonment, brought to the Superior Court in Hartford County and tried to the court, Palmer, J.; judgment dismissing the writ, from which the plaintiff appealed. No error.

Igor I. Sikorsky, Jr., special public defender, for the appellant (plaintiff).

Joseph T. Gormley, Jr., assistant state's attorney, with whom, on the brief, was Otto J. Saur, state's attorney, for the appellee (defendant).


This is an appeal from a judgment of the Superior Court dismissing the plaintiff's petition for a writ of habeas corpus. It is the contention of the plaintiff that the rule enunciated in State v. Licari, 153 Conn. 127, 132, 214 A.2d 900, should be applied to invalidate his initial arrest although no timely objection was made and no appeal taken from the 1961 judgment rendered on a jury verdict finding the present plaintiff guilty of the crimes of rape and robbery with violence. This same contention was advanced and decided adversely to the present claims of the plaintiff in Reed v. Reincke, 155 Conn. 591, 599, 236 A.2d 909, and D'Amico v. Reincke, 155 Conn. 627, 629, 236 A.2d 914. For the reasons stated in those opinions we find no error on this appeal.
