1Opinion of the CourtHolden, J.

The Addison Municipal Court granted the respondent’s motion to dismiss an information which charged him with simple assault in violation of the public peace. The respondent’s motion was stated on the ground that he had been judicially declared insane and was presently confined in the Vermont State Hospital by order of the probate court for the district of Addison. An earlier and different aspect of the prosecution is reported in Langrock v. Addison Probate Court, 123 Vt. 192, 186 A.2d 88.
