1Opinion of the CourtLevine, J.
After a jury in the Criminal Court of Baltimore had convicted petitioners, James Lee Stanley England (England) and Thomas Edwards (Edwards), on charges of rape, perverted sexual practices and assault, the trial judge (Hinkel, J.) sentenced them to imprisonment for the balance of their natural lives on the rape convictions, and suspended the imposition of sentence on the remaining offenses. On appeal to the Maryland Court of Special Appeals, the convictions were affirmed in England and Edwards v. State, 21 Md. App. 412, 320 A. 2d 66 (1974). We then granted a Writ of Certiorari.
