DEFECTIVE DELINQUENTS — Where No Specification Of Alleged Errors Committed Below, Nothing Before This Court To Review In Instant Case, Treated As Application For Leave To Appeal — No Compliance With Maryland Rule 894 a 2 (a). p. 666

J.E.B.

Decided October 19, 1961.

PER CURIAM.

In this case Perkerson petitioned the court below for redetermination of his status as a defective delinquent. Counsel was appointed upon his affidavit that he was without funds, and he elected trial before the court. After a hearing, he was found to be still a defective delinquent and recommitted. He noted an appeal, which the court treated as an application for leave to appeal under Code (1960 Supp.), Art. 31B, § 11. There was no attempt, however, to comply with Maryland Rule 894-2 (a), which provides: "The application shall contain a concise statement of the reasons why the order should be reversed or modified, and shall include a list of the errors allegedly committed by the lower court." In the absence of any specification of errors, there is nothing before us to review.

Application denied.
