Harrison v. State

Court of Appeals of Maryland

Decided October 7, 1975No. [No. 202, September Term, 1974.]Published

1DissentSmith, J.

I would affirm.

There is no room for misunderstanding here. After Harrison’s earlier statement that he told his lawyer “all about it,” referring to his conversation with Strait, the record reflects the following on cross-examination by the State:

“MR. KOLMAN: Based on the Court’s questions, I have one other. Did you tell your attorney, Mr. Daneman, about this case?
*159“THE WITNESS: Yes, I did.
“BY MR. KOLMAN:
“Q. About this conversation?
“A. Yes, I did.”

It thus was abundantly plain that Harrison was saying that he told his then lawyer, Mr. Daneman, about the conversation with Strait.
