Docket Number

3 Div. 91.

Attorney(S)

William P. Haney, Jr., Montgomery, for appellant. Where there is ample time to conduct a pretrial lineup, and no compelling urgency to omit one, it is a denial of due process to show a suspect singly to a victim. United States v. Wade, 388 U.S. 218, 87 S.Ct. 1926, 18 L.Ed.2d 1149; Stovall v. Deno, 380 U.S. 293, 87 S.Ct. 1967, 18 L.Ed.2d 1199; Biggers v. Tennessee, 340 U.S. 404, 88 S.Ct. 979, 19 L.Ed.2d 1267. William J. Baxley, Atty. Gen., and John A. Yung, IV, Asst. Atty. Gen., for the State. Admission of in-court identification of accused based on a source independent of the pretrial identification is not constitutional error. United States v. Wade, 388 U.S. 218, 87 S.Ct. 1926, 18 L.Ed.2d 1149; Robinson v. State, 45 Ala. App. 236, 228 So.2d 850; Pruitt v. State, 46 Ala. App. 491, 243 So.2d 763, Id., 286 Ala. 737, 243 So.2d 766.
